Annoying, right? I think most of us want to get rid of those exclamation marks. If not for the introduction of the confirmation dialog, I would not even dare click on those expensive "deals".
Additionally the idea that Akshan is a well designed champ definately might have been the case at one point
But he very quickly became a beat stick for swinging glave in the same way Samara became an accelerator for bot spam
It's a pretty classic case of the most effective way to win at LOR is to not actually care about your Champs at all to simple use them as a means to an end unless they themselves can exodia and then that's okay keep those dudes alive
We see decks that are heavily reliant on their Champs like lurk and frostbite and deep generally underperform across all formats because it simple turns out that the 34 other cards in your deck matter more than your champions
What happened to master yi, or Lee Sin these primary champ build around win conditions that generally "should" be getting better as the game progresses and develops but are in fact getting infinitely worse
I dont know about you guys but I want to get dragon kicked in the face or void sliced or whatever. At least I know the game is working as intended
The worst part is I generally don't know how to fix this. They could make pro king roll with a random key word and sometimes he gets spell shield?
They could make tiger girl create javelin on level instead of strike?
These things would be good but they wouldn't solve the fundamental problem of...spam 2/1s, exodia, or develop some other non champ related wincon generally being better than your primary champ wincon and as long as that's the case I don't know how the new Champ releases don't continue to be less impactful than they should be
A lot of ppl are sleeping on Aggramar. Lol even the first 4 letters of his name spell Aggro 🤣 all you need is the Swift Slash ability and you have a 15 damage weapon that will always go face!
Yeah. Saw it much earlier. Quite sneaky the way blizz does it. That's so every now and then youve got to check that shop in case of freebies.
You know what blizz? I'll take that pack. But if you want us to check out your stall more often, perhaps its best to get rid of that exclamation mark without needing us to click on every one of your quite expensive, very annoyingly slow to load, deals.
He gives you a weapon that does 9-15 damage over three turns, develops a 3/7 body on 6, and has to be removed, or your weapon just snowballs. That's fairly nuts considering what hunter is currently already capable of.
I think the reason why it feels underwhelming is because its so direct, and the fact that its easily countered by weapon tech. But if your opponent is forced to include weapon tech, mulligan and keep it for 6 turns I think its an indirect win anyway for a class like hunter.
Normaly I succesfully ignore the exclamation mark on the shop icon, but this time I´ve checked, and to my surprise, there is a free Standard pack to claim. Didn´t see it mentioned anywhere, so I thought I might share. I know, it´s only one pack, but still...
Turn 6, 3/7 that immediately gives you a weapon that ends games or draw you cards that ends games. Basically whatever you pick, aside from the third option, will likely fit the gameplan and your opponent must either kill this or you snowball in both value and damage.
Perhaps the only known titan that can actually be countered with a tech card. But thats hardly a reason to not play it. I just cant see any hunter deck not play this card. Its good standalone, even better when supported.
Like all titans, this one is just going to be mandatorily required in all priest decks because it does everything priest would want to do. Even if youre playing for tempo, this card has 10 health and summons another 6/6 along with it. And to go one step further, that 6/6 will have taunt and lifesteal, meaning aggro cannot even ignore it.
The only thing that sets it apart from the titans thus far known, is that you may not need to kill aman'thul the turn after its played because its very close to being a reactive card. Other known titans snowballs, this one however, simply cannot win you games on its own.
But obviously like all titans, is there any conceivable reason to not include this in your deck?
Frankly, and I've said this multiple times we won't really know the true impact of the 3 Champs till Eternal ladder opens up
But yes as it stands in standard they numerically inferior in every way to what's good
Namely beater decks and aggro decks
Saying poro king is x good without braum is like saying Evelyn is x good without Siren song it just doesn't work or feel as strong
Similar things can be said about abush/ transform and its general reliance on pokey stick to flip ping based transform creatures or gnar
Bird lady might be the only champion we can definitely say is pretty meh and I will 100% agree with that
But thankfully the more cards that get printed thr better she gets absolutely she's a grower not a shower
But absolutely if you want to make the argument that decks with strong theme ingredients and build around conditions are generally bad right now in standard absolutely
Lurk is down to a negative winrate in standard...lurk the original Unga bunga is not Unga or bunga enough...for standard the format it's supposed to be good in
I dont like lurk I'm just saying somethings definately wrong there
Cuz if lurk can't get it up what chance does ambush have?
So yeah there is a problem with LOR and what works and what doesn't
And it isn't the champ design that's for sure
Keep in mind my big 10 brain solution for fixing midrange frostbite in standard was hmmmm what if I add more burst and put some big overwhelm wolves into it
And you know what it worked cuz or course it did. Part of it is the turbo ash ans leblanc tho so that is case where the Champs get to do some carrying in a non beater capacity which is nice
But 99% of the time I see people play ambush they don't turbo nadalee or try to preserve nar and if you arent doing that it says a lot about your faith in the current balance of power between champions and just hand vommit board state
I think this was a big problem that happened with gwent the minute gold cards or champions feel less important than say spamming pings till you play 3 6/6 bots
Or grinding stats till you have an exodia body and just playing a massive low curve 2/1 spam or anything else that's good right now
When that becomes more important than the Champs you're playing and the new Champs designed by Riot that's when the game stops functioning as intended
Shugo Complaining About New Expansion
Yep the best deck in standard is literally 0 champion 1 drop spam
Woooooooo
Fun
Siren song nerf when?
Shugo Complaining About New Expansion
All joking aside I'm not saying frostbite lockdown is a "good deck"
It's an amazing deck into every dick swinging beater list
It's a God fucking awful deck into every Jinx aggro list
But thats the game we play isn't it?
They call it a meta for a reason you can counter one thing you can't counter both
Pick your poison
Shugo Complaining About New Expansion
Are you guys literally trying to prove my point lol?!
Thank you I guess
I'll take a free harsh winds into ash level up on your renekton and scissors girl
They were sooooo big what happened?
Now they all shriveled up
Like your tiny peneisis...do you understand the metaphor?
Are you getting this?
Shugo Complaining About New Expansion
Wow that 0/14 poro was so big
How'd you make such a big poro?
Yeah so once again fb lockdown is a solid black sheep pick right now
Cuz 90% of the decks in standard just want to swing their big dick
And they can't if it's all shriveled up
Shugo Complaining About New Expansion
Oh man 0/17 xolani
That card was sooooo big!
Sooooo big
How did you make such a big card!

When this happens, your only likely recourse will be to pack it in. If you can, try to have the reserves for a year of no income.

New Hunter Minion - Aggramar, the Avenger
Straight up insane.
Turn 6, 3/7 that immediately gives you a weapon that ends games or draw you cards that ends games. Basically whatever you pick, aside from the third option, will likely fit the gameplan and your opponent must either kill this or you snowball in both value and damage.
Perhaps the only known titan that can actually be countered with a tech card. But thats hardly a reason to not play it. I just cant see any hunter deck not play this card. Its good standalone, even better when supported.
New Priest Minion - Aman'Thul
Like all titans, this one is just going to be mandatorily required in all priest decks because it does everything priest would want to do. Even if youre playing for tempo, this card has 10 health and summons another 6/6 along with it. And to go one step further, that 6/6 will have taunt and lifesteal, meaning aggro cannot even ignore it.

Talking About Why Ionia Is Still Suffering
You see a lot of players they meta grind, they burn out and leave, they really don't contribute anything memorable
But the reason every struggles with Nifty as an established part of the LOR community
Is that I generally don't give a fuck
No deck trackers, no counters, no net decking, no nothing
Just me and my brain and my decks
And the fact that works drives people crazy
Well unfortunately I got the medals, most people don't proofs in the pudding
Talking About Why Ionia Is Still Suffering
And you know what hilarious?
Doesn't matter how many games I let you guys win
I still have the masters medals for the last two seasons
And I can just grow my collection whenever I want :)
Talking About Why Ionia Is Still Suffering
Omg that darkness deck was so bad what was that 20 turns of nothing?
Play anything else
Was that your jayce deck too?
Blaaaaaaah
