Ran with the Bomb Warrior list from last week's report because I have Blastmaster and Kargath and don't have Gorefiend. Had some fun games in there and some dumb ones. Topped out at Diamond 3, though I'm sure I could play it better. Looking forward to trying the updated one here without the Corsairs and with Warmaul Challenger.
I had all the cards x3 and i played an expedition to see how the epic card reward will be, and it's a simple 120 shards (10%) of 1200, I guess now that there are other cards I still don't have, I should normally get new epics.
Well the point of "while damaged" was because there are so many self-damage interactions that aren'T actually Enrage that it was pointless to have a specific keyword that only covers half the cards of the intended archetype
Evasive is just stupid though. Just make it a keyword already, nothing would change
It does in the video, which is REALLY weird to me because it just says "to 3 different random enemies" and they've been making a deliberate effort lately to explicitly distinguish when cards target units, nexus, or both (example: Health Potion). I would be surprised if either the effect isn't altered to only go units or the text is updated to reference enemy nexus.
That's "Can't Attack" and "Can't Block" I believe. Which means they don't want powder kegs getting buffed and used to attack or block stuff. Considering it has vulnerable though, I'm guess that means it can still be actively destroyed by an opponent who pulls it into combat, but it can't be used as a cheap blocker like Caustic Cask.
I agree that it's a lazy addition of Eager Apprentice, it seems that it is going to encourage small scale spells or miracle style decks though, which I'm hesitant about as I absolutely HATED miracle rogue from Hearthstone, so I hope to god something like that doesn't occur in LoR.
Im really liking the implementation of all the League champions into LOR. They are doing a pretty good job with their flavor and their abilities flavor wise and even mechanic wise most of the time.
Seems so, also it only triggers 3 times, so you will always get all 3 options, if you can play 3 cards. Not clear from the video, but i doubt you can get 3 Reds for example, probably coded like this on purpose.
At the risk of sounding pedantic: there's at least one more new keyword, although I haven't seen any official announcement or even what its called. It's whatever is associated with that white 'x' icon on Powder Keg. I suspect it's "Can't Attack"--it looks like a sword with a strike through it, which is somewhat parallel to the existing "Can't Block" icon--but alternatively it might also have something to do with the kegs' stacking nature. And I can't find anything comparable on any of the existing cards.
How did you do against Cubelocks? That is the main deck I am struggling against. There is just no way this deck can handle all of the extra boards they spill out with Expired Merchant and Bloodreaver Gul'dan/N'Zoth. And you have no way of stopping them from using Skull of the Man'ari and Voidcaller to cheat out their Demons early. It feels like the only way to win is for them to get a terrible start and I get the perfect start. But given how much draw they have and how little draw this deck has, that doesn't seem likely.
Archaeological Deck - Card Design Competition Discussion Thread
Competition Theme: Archaeological Deck
This week we're taking a leaf out of Rafaam's book this week and messing with our opponent's deck!
Cards which simply force the opponent to draw, like Coldlight Oracle, do not count.
Devizz wants us to mess around with the opponent's deck this week in any way you can think of!
As always, I can be reached through Discord or here on the site via PM if you have any issues to report.
Competition Phases
Here are the phases of this card design competition

I am mainly impressed with the amount of gold you have.

I don't think it will work because drawing too many non-elusive cards might slow you down and make you lose but it seems solid.

It's Immobile, there will be another collectible card with it as well. But Riot didn't count that as a new keyword in patch notes either.

I assume it might be be can't attack, possibly to ensure that Kegs don't get abused in swarming decks one way or another.

would prefer that every day over "while damaged" or "cannot be targeted by spells or hero powers"
