Riptide Sermon is a bilgewater card therefore you can't play it in lux jayce

Other new editions

1. drop the bomb -  insane removal hyper leveler for zigs and xerath. Like lowkey this card is terrifying I would even run in transform or the old bilgewater bandle burn, just guaranteed value into a rockbear on 4 while ensuring that the opponent doesn't build up aggro steam.

2. rite of passage - kinda fun for midrange landmark but I don't see this as a staple or anything

3. riptide sermon, definitely a jayce or lux tool where you run spawn as a value pkg good to see

I don't think Totem Shaman is quite there yet.

Looks like a good payoff for some kind of Shadow Warlock. You'd need to be careful about which Shadow spell you cast last, of course.

It feels like this and Shadowborn were meant to be together.

Well, this might be good. Nice mana cheat card, anyway.

Seems like a pretty damn good Big Druid card. Maybe Big Deathrattle Druid if that's a thing.

Powercrept Nature Studies? Though that card let you use the discount on any spell, at any time, so maybe not.

Seems good. I don't know how likely it is you will be able to infuse it by turn 3, but I'm not sure this would be awful coming down on turn 4 or 5.

I guess the question is will Druid be able to throw down enough cheap nature spells to keep the pressure up?

I know I am late to the party, but I just realized that Remornia has some nutty synergy with Reflecto Engineer!

Isn't the main reason for shurima not getting paired with si that there isn't much of a reason to? 

Like what has current si to offer for shurima? 

With hollowed units there is a much bigger incentive to do so imo

It also comes a few turns faster which is great and I'll have a chance to aim for something then hoping to god it hits what i want it to.

im seeing the nerf

Thijs does quite a lot of the HS community including arranging tournaments nowadays and you have the absolutely shameless cheek of moaning that he used a card reveal to promote his platform? A card that really doesn't matter when you saw it even if it was the day before the launch?

You need to have a strong word with yourself. You are all sorts of wrong with this take as well as the 21 numpties that upvoted your drivel.

It's not said specifically. Let's look at some other cards to try to judge.

1. Opponent's turn.

- Tar Creeper - "+2 during your opponent's turn" - and it has +2 only when opponent takes actions on his turn;

2. Your turn.

- Power Overwhelming - "until end of turn" - so when opponent's turn start, friendly buffed minion dies;

3. Until your next turn = your turn + opponent's turn.

- Wave of Apathy, Time Out! - "until YOUR next turn" - works on your, current player turn AND on opponent's turn.

So technically player next turn happens when his turn actually starts, he gets +1 mana, draws a card and so on.

4. "Whenever" wording - effect can happen on your and/or opponent's turn over multiple turns.

- Flag Runner, Northshire Cleric, Frothing Berserker, Acolyte of Pain

So now all depends on internal coding. Obviously it can't happen over multiple turns. But still, It can either be:

1. "during your opponent's turn" - so only when opponent actively can play his cards.

2. "Until your OPPONENT'S next turn" - happens on opponent's next turn AND your next turn, because his next turn happens when his "start of turn" effects happen.

Again, look at Tar Creeper. They can program it that way, as you say. But will they? We are not sure :)

Basically just better Mutanus when it comes to disruption. You get 3 choices, it only costs 4-mana and you decide what you give them so it's rarely going to be something you desperately need.

If this doesn't kill any notion of combo decks being viable in Standard, nothing will.

Same reason why people aren't doing it now,  with just 3 health ruin runner is easy to kill even with it's spell shield, Sivir deck who used Ruin Runner tend to use either Demacia or Ionia as secondary region because you need some protective burst speed spell to keep that unit alive.

Yeah, I really didn't expect this deck to be so popular. I hope it's just the initial hype and people generally being tired of Swordsoul/Tenyi.

Also I think it's mostly the fact that it can be built with almost no UR CP that makes everyone give it a try. That, and it'll be absolutely everywhere for the upcoming festival anyways...

And who hinders you to go shurima second region and throw in a Ruin Runner?

after this article I feel the new expansion lot more exciting - tks
