It's rare when one of my homebrews takes off so well. Easy climb to diamond and I'm looking forward to going higher. Not only does this deck overwhelm everything out there but it is an amazingly fun ride- there are several win conditions and you never know which one will seal the deal.

Still needs a little fine-tuning so feel free to give any suggestions, but definitely treat yourself to a couple games of it.

I'm not the biggest expedition player--I think the format is fine, but personally I only want to play when I can do both trials in one long uninterrupted session so I often end up just playing normal constructed games for daily XP--and lately I've been procrastinating so much that my stock of tokens from the weekly vaults has been starting to accumulate.  I was going to try to play catch-up this weekend, but then I thought: what if it would be more advantageous to wait until the release?  

The expansion is coming out April 30th, and they've said it will include 120+ new cards.  Currently, there are 318 unique collectible cards (6 regions, 53 per).  Now granted, they have not identified how exactly rewards will differ after the expansion releases, but even if they just intermix the new cards with the current cards that still implies you'll have a ~25% chance of each card being new.  Plus there's the whole season road: if you can apply your XP progression towards that, then doing the full 3 expeditions/week means that you should get a quick burst of progression.

What do you guys think?

I have been banned on that site around 8 times. You might guess that it would seem that I must be a toxic poster (to be honest when I was new there a couple times I truly was..) but take into consideration my last ban: "trolling" for starting a thread named, "Nozdormu is racist against mobile players" which was a serious post on how Nozzy is oppressive to the playerbase that are playing on phones. The use of racist was just good ol tongue in cheek humor. Well, xskarma slams me again with a ban. To make it worse they have an option to 'appeal' but every time I have and explained myself they never respond even when they were boarish with the ban stick.

Anybody else experience this tyranny there?

Seems a bit weird. If you've got the money to build tier 1 decks, just go play the, in standard. All you'll "learn" in casual is that your tier 1 deck beats my unoptimised silly deathrattle deck. Which, really, you knew already. If you're trying to work out the deck (mulligans, synergy, etc) then playing in an actual ranked match is much better for you.

I'm just playing around with Recurring Villain and Mok'Nathal Lion - the strongest 9 mana combo anyone will ever see (!).

Hi all,

I've noticed a trend a long time ago concerning the meta at a given time during the day. This list is by far not extensive (and not backed by data) but I'm looking for input/feedback to fill out the data and related counters to the 'daily-meta'.

Mornings: Mostly control decks

Afternoon (after 15:00): Agro/Tempo

Late afternoon (after 17:00): Control

Evening: Midrange / OTK deck

So for example, yesterday afternoon I was playing Zoo lock and won 12/15 games. I mainly encountered demon hunter/dragon hunter. This morning I played the same deck and encountered mostly Handlocks and GalaRogue. I've been noticing these fluctuations persistently over at least a year. Have you noticed anything similar?
What decks would be the best during specific times of the day to counter the meta at those times?

I have reached level 20 with all the Regions. Now when I complete a game there is a label "season road reward 0-9000" but doesn't increase at all after a match. Any clue ?

Mine is Mindflayer Kaahrj "It is pronounced 'Kaahrj'". It makes me laugh every time. Some other really good ones are Stitched Tracker "He is just exercising his right to bear arms", and Aldor Truthseeker "Its under 'T'".

How about you?

Competition Theme: Top Secret

What's the design brief this week? It's a Secret!

As always, I can be reached through Discord or here on the site via PM if you have any issues to report.

Discussion Thread Rules

No thread rules were added to this season. Please populate and manually edit this thread with them.

Greetings, fellow Deckbuilding & Sharing forum-browsers! 

In the interest of not leaving this forum empty, I submit to you my Shadow Ashe control deck.  I know I posted this on the General Forums about a month back and that thread didn't get much activity; however I'll post it again here just because I find this deck so cool and NO ONE is playing it.  Your Plan A Win Con is just what you would expect: use an Elise spider package with Ashe splashed in to get ahead on board.  However if you do get behind, you can The Ruination the entire board away and fall back on your secret weapon: The Harrowing.  If you've juiced enough Ashe into your rez pool, you'll get an ephemeral cavalry of 6/4 attackers, each of which will make one of your opponents minions unable to block.  So much fun!

so its not fair to lose from 20 life after winning the game the entire time. allowing people to have wins stolen from them in this way will make people stop playing your game. honestly its really bad game design to allow a deck to lose and be behind for 10 turns, then kill their opponent from 20 with a few spells. none of witch even deal damage to them normally. please fix this before your entire player base leaves and stops playing. im not ok with having my games stolen from me by this skilless and i do mean SKILLESS ezreal deck. I will concede to every ezreal karma deck i see and i think everyone else should too. boycott this deck and refuse to play against them. refuse to let them have any fun.

Greetings, fellow LoR Card Discussion forum-browsers!

In the future, this forum will be mostly populated by threads about specific cards as they're announced.  Since we don't have that yet, though, I'd like to propose: which individual card do YOU think the LoR community is most polarized about--i.e., some many vigorously argue its too powerful while many also argue its perfectly balanced and/or undertuned?

I will submit Shadow Assassin.  I know there are flashier candidates, but those all tend to be tent-poles that you build your deck around.  Riot previously said this card was the most played card in the game, and I believe it--she is probably the single most independently-valuable card in the game.   However, every region should have "good" cards, and there will also be a best "good" card.  E.g., think of Omen Hawk, who has enough value to earn a spot in most Frejlord decks and yet we'd be pressed to argue he is too powerful.  The question is: is Assassin too good or is she just-right good?  I've seen convincing arguments on both sides.

EDIT: doh!  I started this thread because it was empty at the time, but by the time I finished, Arthas had already started auto-posting.  :-P

Here's what happened. I'm playing Tempo Demon Hunter (yes, yes, I'm a real bastard, I know, just wanted to grab up some easy ranks before the second nerfs hit). Drop my Imprisoned Antaen on curve (cuz I like winning). He wakes up and sprays his 10 damage all over the place, then my opponent plays Maiev Shadowsong and puts him back to sleep. Two turns later, he wakes back up and guess what? Ten more damage to my enemy's board and face.

Just wanted to put this out there for anyone who hasn't seen this interaction.

On a related note, I've also seen buffed minions put to sleep by Maiev, and wake up with their buffs intact. Also good to know.

Be sure and check out the new additions to the Runeterra forums so everything doesn't have to go in General anymore!

tomorrow there will be the free pack givaaway. May I have the link / name of a suitable stream? Tks

Anyone else having fun with Ramp Druid? One of my favorite decks atm :)

Deck ID Not Found

Hey everyone. Today I opened my 55 packs on the Asia server, and I only got 2 Legendaries, including the one you get for free. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I should've gotten a minimum of 3 right (free one, first 10 packs, 40 pack pity timer). Anyone else having this problem?

Also, I'm also getting duplicate Rares even though I don't have a full Rare collection yet (I DE'd the DH ones for full dust, but I don't get them in new packs even though I have all other rares).

I know it's a polarizing deck, but nothing else was working for me past Diamond 10 than Priest. Dragon Hunter, followed up with pre-nerf DH, got me up to Diamond pretty quickly, but I couldn't sustain any momentum after that. 

Rez Priest, swapping cards in and out occasionally, work like a charm. 71% from Diamond 9, finishing with an 11 win streak (including dumpster legend, >10k). 

FWIW, I love Soul Mirror. Probably superfluous in a deck with 2XPlague of Death, but there are those rare times you can copy something super useful, e.g. the time I copied a Archmage Vargoth after my own went down to Hex. Shenanigans!

GL;HF out there, everyone!

I want to preface this by saying that I don't expect this to happen, but I just think it would be cool.

My idea is that the Paladin Hero Power could be buffed to:

This change would buff Paladin and make them able to very reliably fill out their curve. It would also help support the Paladin theme of Handbuffing and would slightly nerf the upgraded Hero Power. What do y'all think about this idea? Do you think it would help the game, or would it make Paladin's Hero Power too good?
