But I'm a big fan of the card, and effects like Kadregrin's remind of the possibility of endlessly stacking buffs or summoning minions. Some people on r/LegendsOfRuneterra's Discord server may regocnise me for playing decks revolving around Copies in their Weekly Tournaments - I brought up stuff like Counterfeit Warmother or Zephyr Sage Spam.

Pure Timmy-gasm.

My first reaction was that it seems a little expensive. But then I thought, "It's burst, and you can't put a price on killing those pesky back-row units."

She's even better than I expected!

I like that she heals a little bit every time she attacks, on top of the Rage buff. The generated card is actually bonkers.

Nice to secure a healthy unit afterwards.

1 mana more than the other strike card can make a difference in some circumstances though.

Decent card i think.

If you play this on turn 7 you can play Aurelion Sol on turn 8.

Also a nice ''refill'' of cards if you haven't that much resources left if you play it as nightfall.

That's a very win-more strategy you have there.

Also, P&Z doesn't seem like a great fit for Demacia dragons.

LoR is tied to the universe of LoL, so it can sevre as an additional tool to expand the universe. Without Legends of Runeterra, we would know less about Yone or Senna beforehand.

I believe everything in LoR is canon, so...

Are there that many dragons in Demacia? Or do they just make all of these to support Shyvana?

The first thing I thought of when seeing Kadregrin the Infernal was Counterfeit Copies.

So lvled up at attack is atleast a 6-7 with 3 mana for challenger for Shyvana herself or a friendly unit.

Pretty good.

Dealing 12 damage with dragons isn't that hard especially since Demacia's removal mostly consists of strike spells.

I like Runeterra, and I like some K-pop. But this isn't a chocolate-and-peanut-butter situation.

This is a toothpaste-and-orange-juice situation.

hell yeah, he knows what he is doing. I still remember when he had 100 viewers in stream

I am also sad that his stream will be far less frequent - it seems like fewer and fewer big streamers are broadcasting ranked which is what I prefer to watch. Best of luck to Boar, though! 

I likely won't buy the pass this time...but that's mostly just because of the aesthetic, rather than any annoyance at what's being added to the game.

I reserve full judgment until it's actually here.

WotC is on a much needed banning spree this year. They should really look into the underlying issues of their card design.

I hope the bans make Standard bearable again. I guess Dimir Rogues and Monored will rise to the top now.

Yeah I think the modern theme of K/DA is a jarring jump from the fantasy setting of LoR, especially when they haven't established the sort of 'fiction within a fiction' thing HS has going on that allows it to explain away inconsistencies with Warcraft canon as embellishments of the story teller. I guess Old Gods was the first expansion to use that in a major way, hence why some controversy surrounded a few far-from-canon cards.

With a limited supply of LoL Champions to use, I think it was only a matter of time before LoR was willing to branch out a bit, and I guess going to the surrounding LoL media such as K/DA was an obvious choice to start doing that. I agree with everyone else that it feels too far from LoR's aesthetic, but I'm not surprised it happened.
