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.

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? 

I've started playing with ideas for a custom expansion, or even a custom year, but I thought I'd sound out a couple of the keyword ideas I had for the first one, before designing a set around them, only for them to be hated. So. here they are:

They are designed to be used in different deck designs, with Bully obviously being an aggro-centric ability, rewarding the player for taking the initiative, while Underdog aids the player in regaining control, surviving, or holding the game until they can produce a swing turn.

My concern here is that this mechanic would be polarising - If a control deck runs Underdog cards, they're stronger against Aggro, while weaker against other control decks. Likewise, Aggro decks that rely on Bully might find their plan undone by an aggro mirror, where their opponent doesn't run bully cards.

So....thoughts? Please?

 Hello, Shiv here! Please excuse any grammar mistakes, 8th grade is hard. I have a theory for you guys to ponder: Mecha-Jaraxxus isn't the real one who created the Rusted Legion. He is more like a pawn. But, if he isn't commanding the risen demons and heroes, who is? Someone we already met: Mecha'thun. There is evidence that links this mechanical entity to the Rusted Legion.

First of all, his quest to end fleshings. He states in his entry quote that "The era of flesh has ended."  The Rusted Legion is an army of reborn heroes and demons with mechanical upgrades.It seems plausible for Mecha'thun to meet up with Mecha-Jaraxxus and convince him that they both have a common goal: destruction of flesh and blood. Or he could be still locked up in Boom Labs and whisper in his ear to do that instead. 

Another thing shown in Ashes of Outland is the possible existence of a cult. Namely, the Rustsworn. Rustsworn Cultist, Rustsworn Inquisitor and Rustsworn Initiate are part of this supposed group. What do Old Gods love more than tentacles and giant eyeballs? A good old-fashioned cult. 

If that does not convince you, take a look at Rustsworn Cultist's shoulder pad.

Doesn't that look familiar to you? An eye. Huh, I wonder where we saw eyes on armor before... 

In view of all the drama about wild I'd like to know what you guys consider as broken decks in wild for each class.

I'll take obvious, current ones like Warlocks' Cubelock and Mechathunlock or Priests Raza and Res. As well as past forgotten stuff like goblin bomb hunter and odd rogue.

Just please try to add a description if the deck is from the past or the name is not enough.  If you nickname  Dinomancer Warlock "Dinolock" it's  fine but specify the wincon for us uninitiateds.

So i had 11 stars, hit legend, game put me in legend 9k. I said "ok now i can meme around" big mistake. Suddenly i was like 12k, but  this time every time i won a game, it wouldnt give me any points, so i kept losing OR winning, but NEVER gaining points, now im a constant legend player stuck in rank 17k playing versus silver ranks that dont even have a full deck, just kinda new players.

HS is dead for the memes, im missing the old rank 5 or legend dumpster

now i dunno if i can fix this problem, dont make the same mistake.

I always felt like the token was quite overloaded, 1 mana 10 points of stats is quite wild. The thing is, it is easy to get them, they are good in tempo and they are cheap. Aren't they quite overtuned?

Here's all the new Noxus cards for you guys! Video here: Noxus Cards Spoiled

Pics are below too - but what's everyone think of how Swain is like 7 cards in one!? I'm not really sure what to make of him just yet....

who can it be? does anyone have a clue?

appearantly its no rogue. maybe the mage "celeste"?

hi guys, 

when will the new secrets be included in the secret-preview of the deck tracker?

i stumbled over this more often than i like to admit.

Thoughts and feedback are greatly appreciated :)

So the title may be confusing but it's kinda relevant, and I thought it'd be funny to use a song lyric from one of the old Tom n Jerry episodes I recall...

Anyhow,  here's my dilemma.  I was a young 20 something back when WoW originally released.  Played it from Vanilla---> Wrath of the Lich King.  Quit shortly into Wrath due to feeling like I was lost in the game at times, and after taking a break felt so far behind that I could "never catch up".  

Fast forward through the last 16 years.  I ended up playing vanilla, BC, and wrath private servers for small stints here and there, before they inevitably died out due to propaganda from competing private servers or due to C&D orders (i.e. shut down). 

As of 2019, played classic wow at it's re-release (re-launch?) with a friend.  I was the one to convince him to play.  Then in December of 2019 had some person issues I had to take care of and deemed it was necessary to cancel my sub and take a break for awhile.  Now here we are.  Friend is wondering if I'll ever come back.  He isn't pressuring me, but I told him I'd been thinking about it the past few months.

The problem: I don't really like classic wow.  Yes I enjoy it more than say current wow.  But if I'm being truthful, the class balance, itemization, etc was horrible in vanilla.  I don't want the super-heroes of modern wow where every player is the savior of the alliance/horde and can swarms of enemies with a snap of their fingers...but I also don't want vanilla wow where itemization is crap, your player looks like Joker on laundry day, and all that.  

The problem part 2: My favorite expansion is BC.  I love the theme, the atmosphere, the quality of life updates, the flying mounts, the gear. Everything.  Everything in BC was just way better.  Ultimately I was honest with myself and the only reason I played Classic WoW and encouraged my friend to play it, was in the hopes that some day Blizzard would release "Classic BC" and I'd be able to relive that time period again.  

The thing is...We are at LEAST 1 year away, if not longer....before that is a even a smidge of a reality.  And I'm growing bored with the games I'm playing (Teamfight Tactics, Legends of Runeterra, Hearthstone, some Diablo3 here and there...)

The problem part3:  Part of the reason I took a break from classic wow in December was because of job issues and stability in my relationship.  Both have been resolved now and things are much better...but now I'm afraid that the one thing that enticed me (raiding, doing dungeons, etc....waiting for BC) isn't actually feasible.  

Even if I don't raid (a 2-4 hour commitment once or twice a week) dungeons in Vanilla don't hold the same attention as BC.  Secondly,  I thought well I could farm gold, just casually do dungeons, level alts, etc in the meantime but there's not a ton of fun replayability just dungeoning in vanilla for me over and over again on multiple alts.  Lastly my favorite class was a Blood Elf paladin, so leveling alts doesn't do much for me because my main in BC is gonna have to be re-rolled/start fresh as it is.  

So my conundrum is: Should I even try to play classic WoW in the hopes that BC Classic ever comes around?  Am I living too much in the past (I guess you could say others who play classic are living in the past as well...)  Just looking for some advice on what to do, and how to move forward being a 30-something person and realizing that I can't necessarily commit the same amount of time that I used to when I was 20, and not sure how to enjoy WoW when the one thing in WoW I really enjoyed but hated the extensive time commitment to was raiding...

Thanks in advance!

So I was just checking by Hearthpwn, because it's funny to read the cesspool of comments you find there, and I stumbled upon this interesting piece of info

So....basically we'll get a new Rogue hero eventually (obviously we do, but it's good to have confirmation) but the hint eludes me.

Are they referring to the fact that they'll use an existing Legendary and turn it into a Rogue skin? (given that we're now getting previous Heros as minions it wouldn't be too far fetched).

Odds are we're getting a male character, seeing how we already have two females, although I honestly would love to see Vanessa vanCleef as a skin.

If they do pick an existing legendary, which one would it even be? I genuinely can't think of a single Rogue legendary that's memorable enough to actually serve as a skin (outside of Edwin, but I doubt they'd ever pick him). Xaril would be hilarious, but I don't think they even remember he exists.

Any ideas?
