I'm with Double Summon on this one. She will never level up, unless you're going hardcore health buffs. And even then, probably still not.
Super disappointing. Probably going to usurp Katarina for least used champ in the game.
Edit- I feel like it's hard to overstate how bad Zoe is. Even her base effect requires spending 2 mana for another card that costs mana. A 5 mana 3/3 elusive or a 2 mana 2/1 challenger that doesn't have scout... these are not good plays.
That level up requirement is so steep, 10 cards with different name as I'VE SEEN? and I thought TF was hard to level..
level one she is like a Teemo.. yes, creating a Behold the Infinite (restricted to 3 or less) is probably much better than planting shrooms but Teemo doesn't see much play cause there are too many 1 damage pings in the meta too..
I think she is awful cause of that 1 hp.. you need to have freljord and an elixir of hand at all times or something to be able to protect her..
the reward for doing so is probably winning the game? you need varied keywords too.
I think you need to jump over too many hoops to level her, she also seems to be tied to Viktor.. at least on her level up requirement.
Not necessarily. I can see her working in mono Targon invoke, p&z heimerdinger or Viktor, or bildgewater TF. Of course I’m bad at knowing how the meta works so I’m probably wron
What builds she can be run in is not the problem.. the problem is why would you run her?
it's a 1/1 elusive you would only run such statline in aggro but she is outclassed by teemo.
All she does is to generate value if she nexus strikes, but fizz is much better at doing that as he generates a 4 mana card that can actually finish the game, leveling her up is probably the hardest requirement in the game, playing 10 cards while keeping a 1/1 alive..
if it was that easy we would see the submarine car everywhere and that cat doesn't even requires to be in play for it's requirement.
I should reach level 50 by the very end of this weekend, only 16000 XP short of level 50 currently. I wonder how many levels boost we will receive with the Rewards Track update on December 15th. I can probably calculate it myself, but I would like it to be a surprise.
As a sidenote, which hero portrait will you all choose? Demon Hunter would probably be my most logical choice since I only have 88 wins with that class, but some of the others look nicer though.
I am half way between levels 40 and 41, so I still have some way to go yet, but when I get there I'll pick Valeera. No doubt about it. It's the coolest imo, I play rogue most, and something has to make up for rogue's lack of hero portraits.
To be honest, I'm not sure I'd really use any of the other ones. I'm not that keen on some of them, and for the rest I either prefer the basic portraits or I much prefer alternative heroes for the class anyway. E.g. the Illidan and Garrosh ones look cool, but I will always prefer Aranna and Magni, especially once voicelines are considered.
Understood. Whether if she walks out a winner its hard to say with all the rng and created by cards. However she does have the skills and more importantly the experience to finish on top
Demacia and Frejlord go OK together for expeditions or when you are just starting, but unfortunately we don't see a lot of that combination in constructed once collections are larger. There's a lot of overlap between the two regions, so most constructed decks will either splash a different region that can add a different toolset to the deck or just try to make an allegiance deck.
For Demacia, there are a few decks I could point you to but the best is probably Elites, especially if you like Garen. The below decklist requests 3x Cithria the Bold and 3x For The Fallen: you should have 1x copy from your starting collection, and you'll want at least a 2nd for this deck. If you have any copies of Genevieve Elmheart, you can substitute her in for your missing Cithria. For The Fallen plays the roll of an "insurance" card to refill in case of board wipe -- again 3x copies are ideal but you can get away with as few as 1x and substitute in either Concerted Strike or additional Reinforcements in a pinch.
For Frejlord / Braum, the best deck I can offer you is Hodor of the North. It's a somewhat memey combo deck, but it is effective. The idea is that you make a big attack with overwhelm units, wait for your opponent to declare blockers, then play Decisive Maneuver to remove one of their blockers from combat (if it was blocking an attacker with overwhelm, that attacker will now deal all its damage to nexus) as well as give everything +2|+0. And perhaps best of all about this deck: no epic crafts at all, and the other champion is Trundle who is extremely versatile.
Finally, I'll give you this Braum Poros deck. It's the only Masters-level competitive Braum deck I know of so probably the best out of all 3 here, but it's also the most expensive. Hopefully you managed to get the free 3x Give It All before the event expired; otherwise I'm not sure I'd advise crafting it as its an extremely niche card (as is Aurora Porealis). Still: if you've got the cards, its a fun and unique deck to play.

I always give Live Design the benefit of the doubt -- they do fantastic work -- but I'm really scratching my head how this can be a 3 mana slow speed spell in a world were RubinZoo thinks Ravenous Flock is well balanced at 1 mana fast speed.
Is one of Targon weaknesses removal? That’s all Ive got for reasons they might consider it balanced
I'm pretty sure that Riven will generate "Blade Fragment" tokens that buff Power (similar to Gems), so I'm pretty sure that these cards are meant to be a part of a Taric/Riven deck. Given that they all scale from increased Power (except the 7/3), they could end up being powerful if Riven is good. I think that the 7/3 is also meant to be combined with Might, but honestly that still seems really awful, it should be a 7/4 at least.
I think that Viktor will actually be playable in a lot of decks. The way I see it, created cards is is really broad category, similar to casting spells. Right now, 7 champions have direct spell synergy (Fizz, Ezreal, Taric, Lee Sin, Heimerdinger, Karma, and Lux). It's true that usually only a few of these combinations are viable at a time, but depending on which regions have the best cards, the best spell deck can change (such as Karma Lux becoming meta when prenerf Badgerbear and Grizzled Ranger were released). I could definitely see something like Heimerdinger Viktor with a non-Targon region becoming the best Viktor deck if there's another powerful region that synergizes with Heimerdinger better. Also, I think that if you're trying to Turbo-level Viktor, the best other champion is likely Heimerdinger, not Zoe (although the deck would likely want to be in Targon anyway). Personally, I think that there is also a lot of room for experimentation in the Targon/Viktor deck, because there are so many cards that create cards and it's unclear which ones are the best. Compared to Soraka/TK, which has access to only a few self-damage cards and healing cards, I think that the archetype is much broader. Also, I'm almost certain that Riven will create "Blade Fragments" in hand, so I think that Viktor/Riven could also be a good combination.
Viktor Gives It All with Targon!
Why no Mimic?

Why is Bloodyface's name in parentheses as Luna, again? Simple name change?
Perhaps I missed the OP to this. No offense but I first read your post, Flux asn thought it was gender change related.
Won't delete this but will edit. Lots of clarity now. Go Luna! Win one for us Americans!!
