Please fill free to discuss the cards you feel are broken or overpowered in any mode of play. I'll start of with unyielding spirit. If you are playing expedition mode where you are limited to the picks you get for your deck, the chances of having a single card that will counter unyielding spirit is slim. Even if you manage to get 1 or 2, there is a high chance that you will not draw them. So, if this happens to you, you are just SoL if you get put up against it because its incredibly overpowered. I cannot believe Riot thought hmm this seems okay...

The current draft game mode for LoR right now is Expeditions, but I think that due to giving cards in buckets it often leads to worse versions of constructed decks instead of truly unique decks. 

My draft mode mode work like this: first, the player chooses 3 Regions out of an offered 5, then they are taken to a separate empty collection and given 65 random cards from each region and 9 Wildcards (that can be used for any rarity). This separate collection and wildcards would not transfer over to the player’s real collection. Then, the player would build a deck of 40 cards with those 3 Regions, using the random cards that they got as well as cards they crafted with the wildcards. After each victory or defeat they receive 2 Wildcards (to a max of 10) and they can adjust their deck. The run would end after 6 victories or 2 consecutive losses, and a second run can be taken after the first one (just like expeditions). The mode could either be played with an entrance fee and then give rewards based on victories, or be played for free with no rewards. 

The point of this mode would be to offer interesting deck building challenges for players, as they would have to change their strategy based on which regions and cards they receive, and use Wildcards to refine their decks. I’m not sure about what the exact numbers of Wildcards and Random cards given should be, but it could be adjusted to an optimal amount that doesn’t lead to too consistent decks.

This is written with full discretion that I also enjoy abusing a good Murloc comp. If anything that gives me more credibility.

Being able to divine shield a huge minion is equivalent to having another minion on the board. When you do the math, even taking a ghoul doesn’t help so much because to do so you had to go down to 6 units yourself.

No one complains about dragons because even if you can shield your comp you went down 1 unit and their attack may not be high anyway.

very simple number economics. Murloc late game is not fun to play against. Either mass div shield or mass poison has to go. Please replace Megasaur with Scalelord.

I'm hyped :) 

Hey all,

I’ll start with a disclaimer: I don’t play a whole lot of battlegrounds, therefore my analysis might be flawed.

Anyways, Pirates are great fun! I love both the economy and the buff-when-attacking synergy.

But especially the later is causing some problems imo. Late game pirate builds snowball so incredibly hard from their first attack, that any comeback is very difficult. Attacking second in a mirror is a guaranteed loss. Not only that, you oftentimes lose by a lot because the buffs keep coming.
The same goes for the parrot-deathrattle build to a certain extend. 
Without a huge divine shield - taunt you are basicly Toast In this meta, after losing the coin flip of attack initiative. 

How are your experiences? Have you found a way around that?

Is this kitty a misunderstood real threat or just a worse AFK? I pick her every time because fun is usually more important than climbing to me (i play in low 7000s doing that). 2 of the 6 times I got her I got a top 4 and two of the times I got beat down 8th place due to bad golden draw. 

great hero and I’m glad she is here but she is clickbait incarnate. If you do not roll something good rip. You have to. Unless you are hitting everything you need and are spending the gold like unneeded rerolls chances are you need that golden Rover to catch up!

I'll be here to answer questions!

**You are allowed to participate if you're not in NA - but the account must be on the NA server.** 

I actually made a video with some gameplay of a tournament I entered online via Discord over the weekend! The Discord community link is in the description of the video if anyone is interested in checking it out - totally random Discord I found via Reddit! =) Here's the video: Runeterra Tournament Gameplay

Does anyone else know of any other Discord servers or anything else that is currently hosting any tournaments for LoR!? Would love to continue entering them! 

So I am curious, why are your funnest decks to play? I think mine is my Teemo/Sejuani deck. I had discovered that puff caps are an awesome way to trigger Sejuani’s level up, so now I have a deck that focuses on puffcap placement and defending until I can bring full-power Sejuani into play. It’s super fun, but not very good in the ranked game mode.

Hello there. I've downloaded legends of runeterra on my phone for a month now and I love it. But what I noticed was that when I played the game normally, it was pretty clunky and laggy. But, when I kept my finger on the screen,  it ran as smooth as silk. Any ideas?

Thx!

Hi all,

My quest log is empty, I am a free to play,  and I need 700 Gold as fast as possible. 

Any ideas, tricks or constructive suggestions? 

Thanks!

Sylvanas' Hero Power is weird and weak. It would be so much cooler if she just killed the minion. There are some pretty cool combos you can pull off including powerful economic boost. 

Wondering what people think it should cost and whether it needs to keep the stat boost. What if any combos would break the game or be OP?

These are my example minions that I think could create a Spell Damage strategy in Battlegrounds. Even though Spell Damage by itself does not do anything in Battlegrounds, by creating Spell Damage payoff minions, Spell Damage becomes a valuable keyword. I also included some dragons and Divine Shield minions in these cards in order to make them more flexible and able to fit into multiple different gameplans. Cards like Tarecgosa and Dark Summoner, for example, are playable without additional Spell Damage.

I just wanted to share this in case it's useful for anyone.. I looked around but couldn't find a definite answer to this elsewhere.

Turns out, if you open a champion capsule from a region that you already have all the champions for, you'll get a champion from another region instead.

For me it was SI.

I wasn't sure if I would just get 750 shards instead of a champion.. but thankfully I unlocked Lee Sin instead.

Please nerf burn aggro - today I lost two games against it with even with him not even touching my face with direct attacks - just last breath deal dmg and burst spells. Total bulls*** not fun to play against + most of the players even rope deliberatly

I have downloaded / launched the tracker installator

An Icon appears on the desktop, but nothing happens when I try to launch it  ... should I wait that the game starts to see something appearing ? Thanks

So Freljord as a region in present in 3 of the tier 1 lists of the meta.

This gives it the top win rate of all the regions on mobalytics

It's hanging around 60 percent in the best decks

- It has the best buffs, fury of the north, elixir of iron

- Frostbite is strong, it counters other midrange lists

- Sejuani is the number 1 champ

- Deck buffing is strong with omen hawk being the best example

- It has good teck options in a tournament setting

So I'm on the fence about trying either Miss Fortune or Fizz--both look really fun but for totally different reasons, and I'm 0/3 on both.  Meanwhile I've got 3/3 TF and 2/3 of Naut & GP.  Then I notice that I'm at Level 16 for Bilgewater rewards so I figure: I'll push that region, pick up the wildcard at L18 and the champion capsule at L23, then if I likely get either my first MF or first Fizz from the champion capsule then I'll use that wild card to craft another which will give me 2/3 and that will be enough to at least craft a deck and play a little before I commit to crafting the third copy.

Good plan, right?  Totally works around my crippling indecisiveness.  So I do all that, and I grind XP for the weekend and I finally hit L23 last night and I anxiously open my champion capsule to find...

Which is good, right?  Except to my twisted mind, it feels worse.  :-P

What about you guys?  Have you ever had any illogical feelings about something in-game?  Or alternatively: advice about whether I should craft Fizz or MF first?

Guess what, we get to talk about everyone's favorite stealthy list, and how to fix it.

- The solution was simple, just splash frejord. Now every wayfinder can pull out omen hawks and buff all future elusive draws.

- The evaluation works like this, if a wayfinder pulls out 2 hawks that's 4/5 strength plus 4/4 strength into future draws.

- That is 8/9 stats on turn 4 so consider me converted, all the list needed was a tier 1 splash. Not to mention the deck thinning potential.

- You also get access to burst speed spells that keep your elusives alive like fury of the north and elexir of iron.

So I had a "wonderful" engagement this morning when I was doing my daily quest.  I was playing a Galakrond Priest deck to get my Inspiring quest done and I played against a Highlander Mage deck.  Honestly, it was a pretty close match the whole time and we both went to fatigue but I had one last Mass Resurrection that I held onto for after The Amazing Reno and lucked out with a couple of Khartut Defenders and Archmage Vargoth. My opponent conceded immediately after that.

Next, like a true "nice" person they send me a friend request.  I figured that they were going to try and harass me like a 12 year old losing at Super Smash Brothers, but I figured I needed the laugh.  I... was... right.  I accept the request and get a message saying, "I hope you die of cancer from your aids deck" and followed up by another statement not worth repeating.  To which I only replied, "sad face".

I used to get irritated when people acted so childish, but now especially after that match being so close, I just like to laugh at them since I got the win.  

I'm curious to hear how other people deal with those situations?  I have a hard time turning down the opportunity to troll someone that is a poor sport, so I take time out of my day to do it.  I'll admit, once there was someone that added me after beating them and actually complimented me on my deck and play and said that they were going to make a deck like it and try.  But mostly, it's just salty little people.  I'm looking forward to hearing what other people have said when the poor sports lose.
