It shouldn't really come as a surprise given that face hunter is basically the cheapest tier 1 deck, and I'm fairly certain this stats is based across all ranks rather than high levels, because the higher you go the less hunters you tend to face (at least for me)
Also, does my eyes deceive me or is Trampling Rhino and Kolkar Pack Runner not among one of the heads. Rhino in especially. I can't even imagine face hunter being a thing without it
Never had a more shit RNG day than I've had today. Had two opponents cheese topdeck victory against me while at 1 health, had every Imprisoned Felhound hit my face regardless of how many minions, had every 50/50 go against me, had virtually every matchup I queue into be an unfavourable one. I don't want to do this any more. 3 Librams of Hope in one game? Yep. Cenarion Ward makes opponent a Tirion? Sure. My Troublemaker 3/3s never, ever hitting where I need them to? Yep.
Fuck this.
EDIT
Came back today, went on a stupid winning streak and hit my goal rank for the season. Didn't actually play any better (or worse), just got luckier with my draw, RNG, and matchups. What a ridiculous crapshoot this game is!
Actually is there a chance that Mordekaiser is going to be Noxian down the line? He could be in the same boat as Rek'sai in that she is from the Void but lives in Shurima, because I believe that Mordekaiser in tied to Noxus in some way.
I've played a lot of poros, but I'm not sure how to evaluate this. Probably insanely good with Give It All. Could also generate important keywords for Fluft.
OK, by popular demand(?) I put a hint in my sig. Oh yes, once again song lyrics (which one can goggle or whatever), but it won't be the name of the card (no song that I know of will do that), but instead a hint for an attribute of the card.
Just gonna highlight a few of the interesting new cards
Has a home for sure, there are aggressive shadow lists that would rather have the nexus dmg over the draw 2
yeti tribal yes pls, hook a brother up
In my nightfall lists I would literally run the 1 mana aphelios card as a cheap activator so this inclusion is a no brainer
a good non blade dance scout activator very solid
Lurk is basically a good aggressive use for scrying in runeterra which hasn't existed yet, as the only person who still plays Zillian trust me I know. While I hate to see every mechanic be reduced to an aggressive creature based strategy, instead of doubling down on the control potential; I also understand the necessity in the turbo meta, if riot doesn't want to make substantial overhauls to design.
mostly pushes Azir mf and I'm fine with that
This is the control Ziillian tool I was looking for keep in mind every predict is a reshuffle and another chance at using this spell in conjunction with a time bomb
Everything else revealed so far strikes me as a little meme-tastic but I want to hear your thoughts in the comments
Freljord getting the best support has been a recurring thing. I guess someone at Riot really likes the region.
I it is better if they try to make old cards viable and increase the number of viable cards by a lot this way than just randomly drop 2 cards that are only good for some fringe gimmicy decks nobody needs to have.
Card efficiency is as important as cost efficientcy in aggro since you usually don't run any extra draw effects.
Elixir of Wrath might be way more cost efficient yet it is kinda the same case as it is with Decimate and Mystic Shot: Decimate is worse in the cost/effect ratio but it is the finisher of choice for aggro decks because it is more card efficient
The Freljord cards are the best this expansion seem to add a lot of power to "Failed" archtypes which is a great design always nice to see cards making old cards better.

New Noxus Card - Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin
Yeah, really. I mean like, where has this demon been all this time? Maybe in the newer noxus story in the universe they mention it
Fabled Poro

Easily the most annoying class to play against with Warlock a very close second.
New Noxus Card - Atakhan, Bringer of Ruin
I want to know what the hell this thing is from a lore perspective. When did Noxus get access to insane shadow demons?

The Freljord cards are the best this expansion seem to add a lot of power to "Failed" archtypes which is a great design always nice to see cards making old cards better.
New Freljord Card - Fabled Poro
Quite strong ngl, seems like a big poro pay off, reminds me of a hearthstone card that adapted murlocs (gentle dinosaur or something dunno)
sure different games but also here this statline is not as bad, also "adapts" itself.
TBH I believe this is enough to make poro decks viable.
New Ionia Spell - Defiant Dance
Gladly this card seem to not be that good, slow speed is quite a downside, will was only good at 4 mana cause it was fast.
New Noxus Spell - Thorned Blade
Elixir of Wrath exists
you are paying 4 times the mana for +2 attack on a card that rarely sees play in the same region.. why?
Seems like a card that is missing reputation: costs 1 or something..
New Shadow Isles Landmark - The Twisted Treeline
