Platinum In Eternal - The Real Game Starts Now

Still grinding away with my own aggro list wins are comming pretty easy

Thoughts so far the one off faron feels great just let's you go over garbage spam decks like Nora

But I think the newer Annie lists that tech 3 pirottes - huh wonder who popularized that

Might be faster, but I don't know how it plays into other matchups

Talking about tier list stabilization Annie Jhin has already dropped down to tier 3 

Thresh Nasus has 0 new cards and is currently being reported as the best deck in Eternal?

Idk I think this is what we call no deny no hard removal syndrome 

Most lists don't run vengence right now, they are very ping heavy, and they don't run deny

So yeah at that point 7 mana atrocity is going to seem like the best card ever

But I just want to remind people there isn't a single new card in that deck, it is literally identical to what you could have run last season

And chose not to

The reality is this tier list is still fluctuating heavily and should be taken with immense grains of salt. Let's see what happens at the Runeterra open and what people play there

They'll bring their denys into thresh nasus and then let's see if it's a 60% winrate deck lol or if it's just small sample size syndrome

You know what forget deny forget vengence hard tech minimorph in your decks that card single handedly killed nasus in the past

Yeah the hard counter for thresh nasus is probably Nora with 3 minimorphs

Cuz none of the cards in thresh nasus do anything other than nasus

So you can just grind out their deck with board value and then snap minimorph Nasus after drawing a bunch of cards

Should be pretty easy

What are they gonna do kill Nora with butcher aggro? Not likely

I think shadow Nora was a deck at one point so you can tripple vengence, tripple minimorph, Nora pkg, draw, maybe a few stabilization spells if they try to go wide

Yeah this is the problem with an unexplored format and saying a straight forward and we'll known deck is S+ when like we already have and know the counter in the format

Talking a little bit about Poppy Ziggs I had said that nothing new was happening with this deck and that's true but they shadow buffed Poppy to a 3/3 again

Why I don't know, it was problematic before and it's problematic now. Revert her buff and this deck dies

Oh and they buffed Nasus from a 2/2 to a 3/3 so literally both these decks are only overperforming due to buffs and not list or deck quality.

And abomination got buffed to a 4/3

Yeah it all makes sense now both these decks are massively overperforming due to design ineptitude, not like being good decks in eternal on their own merits

no wonder I thought this stuff looked like garbage

Post Rotation Riot at its finest

I really miss swim honestly. He would have been all like ooooh iceborn legacy back to 5 mana poros are on the menu.

And Majin is like overbuffed nasus throw at face? 

Poppy buff ziggs?

Like yes those things do happen and work when over tweaked by the design team

What else you got thats actually interesting?

Okay so typically an uncreative players response to I can't be creative is to jam 5 Champs into a garbage fire deck to see of they win.

You didn't win but most of all you proved you couldn't build a sustainable off meta deck

Yeah again poppy ziggs is remarkable uninteresting in what it does.

You would have a hard time finding worse decks than Nasus go face and Ziggs Poppy play stuff.

They truly represent the worst Lor has to offer right now and don't represent Eternal in the slightest.

This specific post is so telling....

I'm over here playing mostly just poros, and generally kicking people's butts with them. 64% winrate over 72 matches, with a record of 8-3 in my last 11 games.
