highroll to get to aurora and highroll to get relevant units from aurora
True
for set 2-5 i like jinx, teemo, and yas
Welp thats epics confirmed seeded
Got the exact same box epics wise
And the same as someone else's box for a different set of epics
What are some signed cards from Riftbound to keep an eye out for?
Thanks I’ll keep an eye out for those. Haven’t followed the game yet since I’m waiting on my sealed product first. But seen some places have some singles.
Yup looks like you're right
Friend opened a box and pulled almost the same
Some slight differences (I got a second rune and didn't get the Boardwipe or thousand tails) but mostly the same
You forgot ahri
Makes sense
sucks because i really like the alt art and her colors
Didn’t even know Kaisa had an sig since she’s had no sells on tcg lol.
Volibear looks so cool oh well
Out of my one box i got the volibear overnumvber but it wasnt signed
Still looks rad af
god bless
perhaps next set
I think it's likely just because they put like the foundation for the deck in gd02
That’d make sense, yeah
Similar to how they’re slowly expanding on the rest of Wing
want to play volibear cause I got the overnumber
auroras and dead roots are like £35 a copy
o shit
TRANS AM EXIA
0080 too?!
Also Urdr Hunt
I didn't expect to see that this early, but I guess it might tie into IBO anniversary
yasuo sucks, could swap jinx & sett but pretty good
new one piece manga is mihawk
Tf manga panels they gonna use
Oh my god its mostly just the barate zoro fight jesus
Yeah glad it’s not Law again but that’s still a manga is lol
Honestly wish they had given it to Jinbe
Now that we got majority of support announced, there will be a black deck that ends up using Croc as a staying body better than Croc lol
Croc’s at least got a wincon now so that’s neat
Purple Doffy the deck I’m backing and Blue Jinbe looks very fun
OP15 better be Franky Manga but I’ll probably be Enel
Awwwwwwwwww
That combined art is super sweet
Full Armor Unicorn seems like a tank
Do any other cards (besides this new GQuuuuuuX) have suppression??
barbatos 4th form and gundam x I believe
oh and the qubeley
Decided fuck it and bought most of what I need for Kai'sa yesterday. I'll only be short 1 icathian rain, 1 Kai'sa survivor (the third is kind of a flex slot anyways), and 1 thousand tailed fox
Just run mundo in that slot 
That's the plan
I've got a Mundo and he says "you win the mirror/against aggro decks"
Icathian Rain #2 is also not super vital, I'll be on 3 falling star instead
The biggest loss will be not having the second thousand tailed watcher
I tried Vayne as a Darius #2-4 last night (2 because I didn't have any extra copies, but I ordered my other 2)
She's not bad
Yeah I think I'll keep her in in the slot I'd be on Kai'sa Survivor #3 rn
It's either that or kaisa evolutionary (I pulled her alt art and wanna flex) but I think evolutionary is bad
I don’t like evolutionary very much
Might be fine to have just because deck’s good enough
Riftbound: Origins Replacement Card Request Form.
If you ever get a 1 rare pack, fill out the form with a picture of the wrapper and the cards and they'll send you another rare
you all kept all your cards in the exact order you pulled them and the wrappers for said packs right?

I've been baited by equipment decks too much in magic to play them in riftbound
irelia seems cool though
Draven reads nuts to me
Draven is gas
Ngl irelia is either not enough or going to break the game with text like that
The wooden ice sword that copies effects is gonna be funny
can't believe riftbound has treasure tokens now
They're only for the recycle cost
They'll be much weaker
Renata can use them to pay mana lategame ig
what what riftbound has temu ponder?
As like leaders or just in it?
Cause theres
Darius
Draven
Sivir
Azir
Viktor
Ahri
Fiora
Rumble
Annie
Lux
Yi
Garren
Yasuo
Nocturne
Lucian
Kai sa
Warwick
Missfortune
Volibear
Sona
Jinx
Sett
Lee sin
The donger
Ekko
Vi
Teemo
Leona
Irelia
Renata
Nyaruhodo
No Kha'Zix 😔
I really hope the game gets cheaper over time, I might get into it if Kha ever drops
Anivia
Blitzcrank
Caitlyn
Mundo
Twisted fate
Is Caitlyn going to drop with that Arcane set next year or whatever?
There are budget decks its just kai sa bullies the hell out of them
Cause shes got such free aoe spells
Kai sa bullies every deck except for super greedy decks
And even then she just races you down if she’s on the unit heavy version
I’m not sure if I have hope for the future since it looks like they’re going hard into the Kaisa mechanic in other champs
I mean, some of the new reveals make it look like there's definitely gonna be more room for other archetypes
But... Draven gets to play 3 red Kai'sa so
I really like renata and sivir
We’ll see if renata’s color combo gets some better early game units for hold
And I wanna like Irelia or Azir
Renata’s design seems backwards tbh since if you’re holding then you’re not racing and it looks like she wants to induce a race
Azir has a lot of cool decks you can already make for it
Azir’s pretty weird, we’ll have to see if equipment are any good
I think Azir will be the sleeper pick
I mean, rn he's got the option for a 2 mana 3 tank
His sand soldiers are incredible
Undercosted and equips immediately? 
Also do we have anyone in that color combo in set 1? I can’t remember
I don't think we do
Iirc his epic is 4 mana 4 might accelerate and when I move to a battlefield move any number of sand soldiers with me
From what I could read of the stream
But yeah, Azir looks fantastic
Oh Doran’s shield immediately makes azir playable hold on
Nah, I don't think so
Baited hook in Azir looks hilarious
Darius is gonna be real good in azir I think
Oh shit right
We forgor about hook? 
Drop an equipment, make a sand soldier, play darius ready, equip darius with the equip, move it into a battlefield with ur soldiers
Fiora also pretty much is also always online cause equipment
Almost any equipment, make soldier, hook soldier, get fiora 
Seems goooood
Holy shit yeah Azir is gonna be nasty
And since Fiora has Deflect, Kai'sa might actually struggle into it
Could also play an equipment, make a soldier, hook it, grap vanguard captain, make 2 recruits
You're cooking, err hooking over here
And the rest of the deck we can either tempo them out or voltron all on one guy
You callin me a hooker? 
I fear the deck might be too cute though
I feel like there's a real vision tho and it can fight Kai'sa
Eh living weapon for every equipment you play HAS to be good, no?
The issue it'll have is sideboard has a lot of good anti gear
I mean that's what I'm thinking
Living weapon in the command zone can't not be good
Love how the soldiers can equip for one recycle less too
Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking pushes this over the edge
Do we finally play the seals?
Deck wouldn’t work if that didn’t exist since hook costs 1 too
Probably a good idea since for your late game you want to start equipping a bunch of things to one guy
Yeah, probably 2/3 of the orange seal, 1/2 of the green?
Unless they decide to give them the buff text which says no 
Orange is needed for Baited Hook too
Nah you need the cards more advantage
Azirs colour doesn't have draw rn
Well you just play the trap that kills a unit then makes the owner draw 2, no?
If you have tokens then why not
That feels moving too much into the too cute territory for me
But could give it a shot
Again, this is all dependent on what the rest of azir's support looks like
We'll have to see his signature and chosen champion options before anything
There’s a pretty decent shell here but definitely needs some help
I think it can get there unless they completely shit the bed on his support
I think the kill trap is real because of the modality of it in different matchups
In matchups where you’re racing you kill a crucial unit and conquer and in slow matchups you sac a guy to get cards
Welp
Nah @solar pine the real agenda.... Azir irelia.... IF they reveal either green azir or irelia

It’s time boys
Damn you got your real essential.... Bless your aurora pulls

Over number box 1 is mad
Anything with a yellow symbol at the bottom middle is good for reference
Thanks. No time warp or Dread
Third box has this
Your hits are about on par with average
1 overnumber per 3 boxes is the rate ive been seeing
Ah good to know
How much do boxes go for nowadays?
Whats the MSRP?
I see
Scalpers are listing like $200-$300
£170 is the lowest in uk rn
Riot has already said they're printing as much as they can for wave 2
So not giving the scalpers money is ideal
Because $200 is the cheapest listing on TCGplayer and thats ridiculous
Its funny how the money cards in set one right now are in no way going to be money when the next few sets come out with the exception of like
Time warp
Time Warp and Kai'sa
Kai sa I guarantee we'll get something better
I can't see a world where Kai'sa Survivor isn't good for a bit
She'll get powercrept or just other options
Deadbloom is literally just best of a bad bunch
But so far Kai'sa Survivor looks like a slot into any red list
Yeah Deadbloom will drop hard
Most if not all of the top ends right now suck ass
I can see Aurora staying a bit pricey
Aurora is one of those you play it because it beats kai sa
And the seals will either go up with time or hover at like $20-$30 forever
Otherwise its too slow to care about
Im predicting that too
I already think the yellow seal looks really good going into next set
It'll just depend on what support the seals get
Well not support but you know what I mean
So trying this out and confused. For Garen when it says conquer if I have 4+ units does that mean before combat at a field or after combat is resolved?
after... he's so bad...
Holy yeah he’s cheeks. And conquering is specifically when you take a zone occupied by someone right? Not when you take an empty field?
Also another question we ran into: when attacking into an occupied zone? Is there a moment where I can cast a +1 spell on a unit after my opponent has declared how much damage he is doing to a unit or do I have to preemptively do it so he knows it’s buffed?
Yeah conquer's after taking someone elses, so when you attack triggering the showdown, you both get priority to resolve effects before damage is calc'd. Like how u can do bp chains after attack dec in YGO. damage allocation is after effects unless someone has tank etc
Ah so we have to use any buffs and debuffs before the actual fights occur and have to assign accordingly. Thanks for the help.
Unfortunately yeah garen is the worst legend by a massive margin
Draven next set just kinda shits on him too, better version of the effect in better colours
Yeah even in the 4 player box it’s obvious he sucks compared to the other three with just how much value they’re getting plus there’s enough combat tricks and removals that ever using 4 to take one is ridiculous.
Btw what do you guys use to look up decklists and the such?
I use piltoverarchive but its not the best
Dammit I think the postal service lost my Icathian Rain. Or at least it's not getting tracked right now and was supposed to be here yesterday
YES YES YESSSSSSSSSSSSSESSSESSSSSSSS
So Celestial Being is gonna be a grave heavy deck... Interesting
Similar to the black decks rn in One Piece, and a different style to the purple decks we already have in Gundam
In terms of getting boosts based on the cards in the grave
I can imagine Celestial Being could go well with the Vulture stuff
Oh yeah lmao
I was thinking of Vagans and Tekkadan, but Vultures already have a base that mills 2
yeah and you have stuff like this too
but yeah being discard/mill based will be cool for CB
probably means you can play it in white so overflowing affection can discard other CB cards
Except Lockon is gonna be green...
Not exactly any of Wing or Zeon synergy, I'd imagine
Lmfaooooo you're good
I got the Wing starter so I'm especially aware of it
But yeah
Afaik all the green decks are super archetypal and aggro heavy
Though there is this
Sales finished for Altered set 5.
Goal was 2.5 mil euro, they only hit 2.3 mil euro. They will be going through with set 5, but will be compensating on something yet to be determined.
If this is the goal for set 6 we are not hitting anywhere close that mark.
Equinox really needs to reconsider their approach
Honestly their PR team has been a mess
But also, they've been biting off way more than they can chew between collectors boosters, multiple product lines, and 4 sets a year
And above all, 1 wave releases
Ngl I think Collector boosters are what’s keeping this afloat
Yeah true. 1 wave releases is an awful idea
Tbh I feel like they should have shopped distributors
I don't think the gamefound was a good idea at all
If anything they ought to rethink over their boxes
It also didn't help going to the 24 booster box for only like $10 off
Considering that in the states, we're paying more for less packs
Played against a vi
Holy shit do kai sa and falling star need to go
What do you mean falling star doesnt give a shit if the target is at a battlefield or not
target still exists, no? 
Target was a 6 mana 6 might that died to a 2 mana spell
removal 
No other colour gets anything remotely as strong is the thing
I love how the "play around it" is have exactly defy or back to back
or any number of pump spells or make your opponent not have it 
the same way that one teemo player got to top 8 
They split the targets u suck an egg
You save one and lose the other
They still win
more pump 
or just play aurora and always be out of reach 
anyways played against a person who's pretty decent at viktor, one of the few who doesn't just scoop the kaisa matchup
Early thoughts about OP14
- Boa's probably ok, but is way worse than people thought it would be
- Doffy is exactly what I thought it would be and I love it. Only major problem with Doffy is that the only out to certain cards on board is Moro Moro Beam Sword, which isn't searchable. Makes for Ace matchup being bad, you kinda just have to swarm board and pray it's enough early. Doffy's new support also gives a lot of life to Sugar
- Jinbe and Gecko are very high skill ceiling. Jinbe in particular could have the opportunity to overthrow Betty for hyper aggo deck of choice, we have to wait and see.
- Croc has an extremely polarizing MU chart cuz it all depends on if 8c Croc can keep the opponent in check, and is probably not comp rn because it is goddawful into Ace and probably bad into Imu
- Law can't be properly tested online yet
Any chance Koby makes a comeback?
mayhaps 1 seal and 1 karma? it's a hard sell
@stone geyser
Iiiiiinteresting
Saw some theories that they might make Kyrios’ flight mode a low level GN Drive machine
But instead they just made a low level Kyrios period
That said, it’s got potential to be a decent swinger on your turn with a Hallelujah or Allelujah pilot
Minimum 5/3, maybe 6/3
Are they gonna be doing semi-daily reveals for the next few weeks?
yeah more than likely
they'll be reveals from now until the set drops in japan
but it'll be a mix of starter deck and set reveals
gundam offline regional tomorrow but vendors today have blessed me
@stone geyser
Ayo wait thats gas
I mean kinda
the maganac cards aren't great
currently 1-2 at regionals, just lost to the most annoying type of player which makes it even worse
just assumed I was out to get him at every possible mistake so he turned into a rule shark
aggro is actually so disgusting in this game
I don't know how you're meant to beat it unless they brick or you're playing b/w blockers
Fun fact: you can even be playing b w blockers
Oyw has the capacity to just
Not give a shit
Turn 1 dopp into turn 2 2 zaku iis into turn 3 linked chars zaku ii into turn 4 linked gundam, finish with chars gelgoog
deck is way too ignorant to exist
and bc tournies are bo1 it makes it so much worse
that deck is my biggest issue with the tcg
I own wing idk why I didnt play it
I guess I was coping blurple would have been good enough
Which purple cards?
And also, which decks did you lose to? Cause it seems like a bit of a weapon triangle rn
Your mistake is being on 1st form
Card is bait
If youre linking with mika youre going down 2 cards for a 5/2 that gets you 1 back, dies to lifrit. If youre not linking with mika, youre never getting the draw
Drop the 2nd forms, drop the base that isnt corsica, go to 4 fatal strike and 4 anksha
I was gonna say it seems like your early game is a bit tricky
As for the first forms just replace with hyakuren
Do all of that and trade units into oyw and aggro wing/blockers, you should have it
If the mirror is on 1st form its an easy win
Still, congrats on the 2 wins and the new alt art seed/0079 cards!
cap with the bases
nahel argama is really good and 4 corsica feels ass
I heavily disagree with the 1st form is bait as well
it's a level 3 it doesnt need to be broken, you just ping it with iron and blood or mika onto something else and ping it
converting a level 3 into draw 1 is goated
I also played the mirror today and they weren't on 1st form and I won so I'm not sure about that
I think my only change really should have been 2nd form changed to hyakuren
Converting a level 3 and a pilot/with iron and blood into a draw is ass though
I didnt say run 4 corsica
I just said drop the other one
It also dies to lifrit, hyakuren doesn't
And costs less resource
My list is on 0 rebake 0 1st form only times ive lost is drawing ass
eeehh only 3 bases doesn't sound great
Your aggro
I already had a couple rounds where I didnt see one
If youre caring about bases that much somethings already gone wrong
even oyw aggro is playing 4 bases it's the minimum so you dont lose the game on the crack back
Ehhhh not been my experience cause oyw can crack a base no problem so it doesnt matter that much to me
Unless its last card in life or they're attacking oddly
In which case either youre sacking the win or you should be winning anyway
i know nothing about f&b but
lol, lmao

“Think about the people who bought one for 5k”
Quoting Lee k “daily played investments” (@deathstalker182)
︀
Both rf…..come on man. Just think about the people who bought one for 5k. Again to make very clear REPRINT STAPLES. Make them look worse or at bare min non foil please.
if you spend 5k on a trading card then you're stupid, i'm sorry to say
Deck does everything and then doesn’t 
what the? whats the context on this lol
I have no idea
I guess they reprinted a card that had a $5k price tag
and it caused the market price to tank
I mean fab’s been trying to lower prices with reprints for a while
I think they reprinted this one in particular too but just not in this rarity
@solar pine how would you improve this?
Lmfao they gave Celestial Being Path to Victory or Defeat but made it a level 1 instead of a level 5
Genuinely wild
Good point, actually
So it's moreso that G Team just got super debuffed on their version than Celestial Being getting buffed
Genuinely, "Hyper-archetypal beatdown" seems to be the theme of green rn
does the gundam tcg have a color pie or is what the colors do determined by vibes
it seems like there's a colour pie but I think it's mostly vibes
purple is self-damage and trashing cards
blue is resting units it seems
green is ramp and breach
white is blockers
red is ping
Have you seen people doing foiling for them?
Like custom foiling?
Because the alt art runes are 100% foil
Also
Bulk rune box coming with spiritforged. $20 MSRP
Do we have a current red/orange champion
Also, unfortunately this only works if they go straight to a showdown
If they play spells first you can't react with this
Oh right Volibear
You can if you hide it, cause then its a reaction
Yep, custom foiling
Can you? I thought it had to be played at regular timing rules
Huh, so you can, but they still get to play one card
You can't react until they play at least one thing
Dickhead cancelled my order for a seal of unity cause the price went up
It went up by £2

Which one was that again?
Yellow
Oh yep some people are catching onto the hook azir build
There’s an interesting build with bork too
Bork?
And nah its going up cause darius hook is actually putting in work
As it turns out playing a 2 cost 4 might and hooking it into whatever you fucking want is good
The main issue azir hook is going to have is the equipment arent hookable so they can clog your searches
Wait how is viktor hook not a thing
It makes recruits you can chain up, it has some really really good options for chaining up, and you have harnessed dragon and mundo as top ends with ekko just before that
Is it just too slow?
Lmao it's too late I'm a Kaisa man now
Yeah Falling Star is fucked up
Pretty neat, especially since the tokens have the Tekkadan trait
My main issue with it is by god is it slow
You probably lose to most normal viktor decks and against aggro you are praying to god to constantly stay above 4 might units
Darius hook has the luxury of just shitting out whatever and not caring what sticks
Here every unit matters
You lose to both viktor and Kaisa, maybe even Aurora if they get a fast enough start
Playing more darius hook, people really overstated how much the deck """needs""" kaisa
Sure itd be nice but darius and draven are fucked cards
This us what im on rn
Karma with vi is funny
Damn saw Yone and was hoping that was Aatrox
Guessed everyone's colors
I lined it up so that everyone in equipment shares a color with each other
What are your thoughts on the list fellas
Yone and Ezreal could be swapped, but I think thematically it makes more sense for Ezreal as a spellslinger. And piltover and zaun have a lot of purple cards
Blue Red is confirmed to be Rumble
He's on the starter decks
Innovades! And we already got Super Soldier.... We're gonna get all the 00 factions and subfactions at this rate
Lmfao please tell me this is an April Fool’s pack or something
Nah its a bandai store thing
It's kinda crazy that Riftbound night last night was 40 players on a random Wednesday night
literally dont think the game has popped off here at all
Thered be more people playing at my locals theres just not enough product
Yeah I was surprised at 40 with the lack of product
Lots of diversity in decks since most people's were like "here's what I got in a box" although there were also a lot of fully optimized lists like mine too
Lmao I want my second but I'm not paying $100 for it
I also need a third Kai'sa and 2 more watchers
$400 to finish the deck doesn't sound ideal when I've got 80% of it
bums tbh
we have no product ANYWHERE
Yall wanna pay £8-10 a pack?
Same, at least the smart stores set aside a case for pack per win
Sadly I know places selling the boosters for 300
Legit even if you open aura dread root time warp kai sai and a watcher youd still be like 30 dollars short of making your money back at those prices
Which im pretty sure boxes are seeded in a way dreadroot and time warp are a bitch and a half to pull
I think some boxes are, some aren't
Dunno what happened there
But like we had a very similar box, but other people aren't having that
We know for a fact theyre seeded somehow
Theres just a lot of possible seeds
But for example if a box has a dazzling aurora, it will always have a kai sa
Yeah true and it was only part of the box
Our alt arts were different (yours had the overnumbered voli which was the better pull) and some different mythics
Same our scene had like 4-5 people
The epics and alt seeds are completely unrelated apparently
Huh weird how varying in popularity it is. I can go to a different nexus night every night of the week in a 25 mile radius if I really wanna
I think they need to get stock around (not just origins boxes, proving grounds + structure decks) as soon as possible
just reprinting in tourney packs doesnt do anything if u dont make an lgs level playerbase
Oh 100%. Apparently the reprint wave starts this week, but who knows if there's gonna be enough product
The problem is saturation. We have people either hella dedicated to magic or into mtg and Lorcana. The only people trying it are a same split of Pokémon people, who involve 2 people who have gone through digimon, one piece, and Gundam already
Out west of me Flesh and Blood took over too
Weirdly different areas then. My area is mostly MTG and one piece and a LOT of Riftbound players now
Lorcana was basically DoA here, Pokemon isn't seeing much play, basically no yugioh, and anything that isn't one piece by Bandai is dying
I think rift is very attractive to standard mtg players, potentially lorcana with a little bit of bandai overlap
So far our magic players have stuck to magic and lorcana
You'd be hard pressed to find more than 10 lorcana players here
Our Lorcana locals get like 20-30
Sometimes our Altered night had more than Lorcana. Which is saying something
Magic locals probably the same (20-30)
Pokémon 10-20
Anything else 5 or less, including Yugioh
I’m probably the only person in an hour’s driving radius who even knows what altered is at this point
For me its
Mtg 0-4 people
Yugioh 0-4 people
Digimon died to the point my lgs was doing boxes for £24 (£1 a pack)
One piece is 8-12 people
Gundam is 8-12 people
Pokemon 10-20 people (mostly kids)
Riftbound 12-20 people
One piece has a collectors scene but is dying out due to power creep, gundam is doing okay especially for a nicher product, pokemon has the scalpers but not a lot you can do about that, mtg has big issues getting events to fire and no one cares about the new sets. Yugioh... hahahahahaha no chance.
For us MTG pops off with Commander and Pre-Release. Yugioh has declined heavy but theres a small dedicated bunch. OP gets a good amount. Lorcana and the rest are basically dead. Riftbound is pretty decent but yeah lack of product is ass
I would have probably picked up riftbound if it wasn't £1000 and also I weren't playing like 3 TCGs right now
well technically 2 TCGs I guess, I don't play mtg enough irl for it to count
Here every tcg is doing well (including hololive)
But different shops for different games and the digimon players are uhhh
Something else
Okay ive been fully convinced darius hook does not need kai sa at all
I would rather drop a vayne, draven or a darius anyday
The draw is neat, but 4 power ready is not swinging the tides in any combat that matters nor is it winning you games
Card actually feels like bait
Booooo
Ezreal
Explorer
↪️ Reaction: Draw 1 card. This ability can be used if you target an enemy or an equipment twice with a spell or unit skill within this turn.
Rumble
Mechanical Menace
Your "Mecha-" units will gain +1 Shield(If they are defending, they gain +1 Might)
Fiora
The Grand Duelist
When a unit becomes Mighty (stat increase to 5 might or more). ↪️
Channel an exhausted rune
CALLED IT ON EZREAL'S COLORS
So I'm probably right on all of these
Yone is reksai tho, we've seen her art now
isn't the "jax" actually talon
It is jax
The lampost is visible
Classic LOR pairings
Azirelia
Jornn (Jax Ornn)
What we thinking about ezreal bois
Because I really really like recurring card draw but the cost is pretty steep unless we have recurring targeting
Depends on if blue or purple gets some spells like fallen star
Ayo wtf
Ah jax and reksai
Card is so good damn it trades with everything
I feel like he's got potential to get nutty. You're just gonna need some multi target effects
Mystic Shot is probably gonna multi-target, no?
Or recur itself
Recurring itself makes more sense actually
Draven scares me more i think about
This is a REALLY nice combo
It's more focused than the likes of Wing Zero or Unicorn but that's still one heck of a comeback ace
It also is one pf the few was to kill a wing zero turn it comes down if it doesnt attack
Guessed some colors wrong
Reksai is SILLY
Lots of cool stuff in the article
Oh this is gonna be EXPENSIVE
RENGAR!
Senna
It's her good version yeah
So expect it to be like $500
sad!
I mean you still gotta pay costs so
Whoops that's Mel not Senna
True, but still funny
It's mel & ambessa yeah
Forgot Mel was a champion and saw a girl with dreadlocks in glowing green mist
The big difference is that Senna has a hood. Should've noticed she didn't lol
I hope I like how either sivir, fiora or renata play
Who is the fourth one here? LeBlanc?
I think so?
No rammus or aurelion sol game is dead to me
Fingers crossed for aurelion in radiance
Where my girl Illaoi
yeah that's yi rengar vi leblanc
big chance aurelion is in the 4th set they revealed only the name
"Radiance"
Its taric for sure
Reksai's signature spell is cool
Oh all three would make sense
"Zaun was promised to me 3000 years ago" ass combo in here
Lmao
More i read it rek sais is nuts
Tf are they feeding this gu...
Wait holy shit this is the new hook deck
Card advantage
Legion combos
Good ass draw
Slower than darius but can maintain the game longer
Oh hey its kicker
sad!!
Im asking for a green irelia for a specific reason.....
To introduce the pairing champs that traumatized old LOR competitive, and also traumatize them in riftbound
(Azirelia, Jornn)

am I blind
is this some "corporate needs you to find" shit happening to me
Left side of her robe
i'm pretty sure this is a completely different game from netrunner
Sadness is put on the stack
Doesnt Netrunner still have a fan-run continuation?
This is insane I demand one set a year
Sorcery does that
They do but their playerbase is so scattered and irl play for that game is so cool
Red gundam continuing to carry clan on its back
So looking into finally building up a Riftbound deck. I know top 3 is roughly Kaisa, Vik, and Yi. I’m interested in Fortune, Sett, and Jinx. Which would you guys recommend going for?
Aurora Fortune, so you can have a good matchup vs Kaisa and non-aggro lists
Vik and aggro yi destroys you tho
Sett is so good imo it's different to yi and fulfils the buff fantasy Lee is trying to accomplish way better. Showstopper a card and a half
Thanks guys I'll look into both. See which one I can build first lol
You’ll be able to make sett almost all the time first lol
I cant in good faith suggest jinx unfort
Jinx is fun and all but almost always you want Annie
Super mega death rocket and vi -> ride the wind is so good tho
Play darius hook, pay £30 per yellow seal, get shat on by the sett matchup
Join me
best sett deck in the format
doesnt run the epic mainboard
Holy shit
Huh interesting. I forgot about Annie.
do you think this is a good starting point? I was looking at this one and the china nats list
I like the list, 3 arena bar is surprising to me and lee isnt too common but cool
damn
Viktor gone
where do they put up the lists
I usually check piltoverarchive but generally its up to the people playing to actually upload them
Oh they mentioned theyll put up the top 8 so jw where ill be able to find them or if theyre even up yet
On that twitter page is my guess
Oh and how is Teemo? I overlooked him but he seems interesting now that i know the game a bit more lol
Very skill intensive, but shits on kai sa if played well
Absolutely dies vs viktor and yi though
seems like thats most decks atm
yea
How close is the game to LoR?
It's pretty different
theres a bit of lor dna, base / battling and quickplays, but theres no spell mana and the system is diff
Sett is really good into Kai'sa
Unironically all that recursion is tough for us
The meta is definitely a bit more open than expected but prices are keeping people from trying stuff
lmao seriously? I just bought mine today

Apparently the winner of the 12k won because they misruled on how showdowns and aurora works
Game’s scuffed 💀
Apparently another sett is going around big tournaments and not paying cost on their showstoppers
The cost of 1? Wacky
Oh lmao he did it on a feature
what
The issue is that you kinda don't wanna play this early
Unless you're turbo digging for nocturne
But 0.5 mana draw a card is cool
Kid named porpol seal
Turn 1 stacked deck purple seal called shot
Oh shit true
hello consider
But that also doesn't get you a t1 nocturne
Oh wait it can
Yeah that's funny
More i want nocturne to be good
He just isnt sadly
4 might is in getting ass slapped range
That's pretty cool
This card is like
Cheeks
Giga cheeks
2 mana blow up 3 lands draw 3
Theres a 0 mana blow up 1 land draw 2
Fair, I just thought drawing 3 is neat
ok i really like jax
Is gold like treasure?
a little different, since power and mana are a bit different
gold replaces you putting runes back into the deck but cannot pay for costs in the number
I see
until renata lets you 
A little different since it came as tap
Is Riftbound played as a 1v1 or as a multiplayer game?
both
1v1 for competitive, but there's options for casual 4 player
Honestly the 1v1 feels smoother, but there's a lot of good design philosophy in the multiplayer
1 v1, 2v2, free for all
Jax is nutty what
1v1 is definitely much better of an experience but they really designed around multiplayer in the case someone wanted to do that
So the gap between 1v1 and multiplayer is a lot less than other games

Banish 1 friendly unit, then allow its owner to play it ignoring its cost. Deal 3 damage to an enemy unit. Banish this card.```
Huh arcane shift is odd, what if you have a battlefield with 1 unit then target that unit with shift 
You can’t place it back onto that battlefield, probably
Basically the goal is to resummon something like this

I know, but it’s pretty weird when it comes to some situations like if you attack with 2 things into a battlefield then as your action you shift
Im more worried on hostile takeover
I can’t remember the exact wording so idk if you can play that thing into the attacked battlefield again
Steal your opponent's mundo
Yeah I’m talking about rules and use cases more than anything lol
There's that thing in MTG flickering?
Something like that
Exile a card then cast ir back
I know about that, I’m talking about the riftbound specific mechanic of battlefields 💀
Probably the same

You’re playing the unit back, but doesn’t state you play it back to the same place, I just don’t know where riftbound checks if you have a unit on a battlefield 
The safe assumption was on base
I know the same assumption is base but I’m talking potential use cases and if playing on a battlefield checks before or after a spell resolves and if holding a battlefield is needed or just being on one 
Complex card is complex

There's a hidden 13th champion btw (likely Yone)
There's a spot in the gallery for a legend and signature spell
There's not one anywhere else
is ornn good
On paper its kai'sa for weapon decks
Being calm mind
Hmmm
He might be
Do hope they can make the game cheaper, it looks fun
Tbh i don’t remember if tri force was in ornn’s colors
But if it is, tri force on a Aurora deck is funny af
We haven't seen ornn's sig card yet too
I wasn’t looking for yone 
It depends.....
Both chaos equipments so far are crack
It cant be pyke
Since it was teased set 3
If i recall
I wasn’t looking for pyke either

Reksai's support is looking real good
Yall
We got another counterspell
I think like the only major thing this doesnt counter is like
Time warp
It can't hit units either
This with time warp is silly
I'll just cash out to take 3 points and win
Renata can do it crazy easily
I meqn yeah but youre never defying a unit realisitcally
2 points yeah?
Cause you can only pay it once
One on conquer, one on hold, and one off time warp
But two that turn, yeah
But yeah, Renata looks kinda real with that
Does moving to base give a benefit or why does Ez do that?
I was about to say
He attacks/defends, kills a unit with his effect, then fucks off
Yeah that's pretty fun for EZ
Yeah that's insane
Nyaruhodo
Purple gets a really good buff from just her existence
Reksai looking solid too
I fully expect to see Reksai, Azir, and Renata in the meta
And something purple
Because holy shit Vex is strong
It's for the Rumble deck lol
That's gonna be unplayable compared to these other two
Unless they're holding out the insane mechs
Royal entourage could be funky
Dont think theres a legend that wants them bad enough tho
Royal with azir’s funny
I dont think azir wants it bad enough
He doesn’t but his ability’s so good, a free 1 mana 2 might
Shit like this exists for Azir
Oh hello new Kai'sa card
If vex actually has no other counters, kai sa is dying as it is rn
Cause shes actually gonna have to pay for her shit
And its too strong to accelerate a kai sa into
Yeah Kaisa is about to have a lot more answers
Kaisa doesn’t really want that card tbh
I mean, it's probably better than our worst battlefield
I'm noticing we want to play battlefields that the opponent can't benefit from
And that one has less hits based on the opponent's deck
I am very excited about reksai hook tbh
Reksai hook and Azir look really fun
But I'm actually also kinda sold on Ez control now??
Ez control has sauce ye
Wait Irelia might be real
Just casually free keep Vex safe
And 1 mana fuck off button
Moving doesnt cancel spells on them, right?
Depends on the spell, if they're no longer "at a battlefield" it does
Icic
Pretty much every single Kai'sa kill spell needs them to be at a battlefield
Did we have any cards so far with an activated ability being an action other than ezreal?
Ezreal forcing people to understand how the game works makes sense lol
I'm not sure? I think he's the first
Even if ezreal’s tricky to play into, I think I’ll stick with Azir
Unless there’s something that shows up later that changes my mind like a good ezreal removal spell
I'm leaning towards Reksai and/or Irelia or Renata
Renata looks like she's nasty
Reksai looks like she'll be fun as fuck
Renata might be the best just due to her passive being an amazing tool and her sign spell
Yeah I'm think she's fot sure got a spot in the meta
Reksai as hyper aggro and Azir look fun too
So that does mean that good Kai'sa will get her alt art
