    I guess we'll have to wait for tomorrow/Monday to know for sure :/ I think you might be right, but at the same time it seems super weird to me to include Soraka's face on a card and not have her in the game (yet).

    Hmm...we really only have one more space for a champion, don't we. I thought we had two left, for ASol and Soraka together, but I miscounted (stupid Nocturne). It's got to be Soraka, though...right? They've been showcasing Soraka cards throughout the week D:

    Was not expecting Diana to be so small, but I like it. The combination of Quick Attack and Challenger will work out nicely, although she really needs to be leveled up if you expect her to kill anything.

    Also Hush might be the most blatant example yet that Soraka is coming up next (or last). It's got her face right on the card lol

    The video never showcases the card in its regular version (that we can readily see, anyway), so without information like its rarity gem we're gonna leave it alone for now. Needed a showcase like Taric's where we got to see all of the cards outside the video.

    I'm certainly happy that Leona is a card now, but...no Tough? She's one of the few champions that didn't come with a basic keyword in either iteration, like Tough or Overwhelm or Challenger. I'm happy she has Stun, at least, but the Yasuo synergy is barely present; we'll need more than just the champion card to pull him away from Noxus, with their plethora of Stuns.

    Don't get me wrong, I really like the card. It's just missing something to make it 11/10.

    Play him on curve and get a bonus card in hand. Nice. Plus he looks like a badass and that's always a plus :)

    Biggest loser appears to be the Mage, who can no longer rely on Primordial Glyph and Magic Trick loops for Open the Waygate or Mana Cyclone shenanigans. Sounds good to me; I gladly sacrifice the few other niche scenarios where this pops up if that particular deck gets hit again.

    I say more power to them (and to everyone who missed out the first time). The preorders are about the packs, with a major bonus on top of that of course, but I didn't pay for exclusive rights to a skin. I got my money's worth out of Mecha Jaraxxus and the like; don't see why others can't experience the same thing.

    I honestly feel like people have even less legs to stand on in this debate versus the one about the card backs, 'cause at least you could say "well I had to earn the card backs." You didn't earn anything for the skin; you just ponied up the money for it.

    When you've got a Pro like that, you don't even need to keep reading the Cons ;D

    Why does War Chefs get to be a 2/2/3 and this card has to be a 2/2/2? Nevermind, just figured it out lol. It doesn't specify "this round" on Tyari, so the buff stays.

    That means Leona is coming <3 <3 <3 I was gonna buy three copies of Miss Fortune with my Wildcards, but never got around to it; now I can buy Leona instead!

    I hope she's Stun-related and has good support for that, so I can pair her with Yasuo. It'll be hard to pull him away from Noxus, though.

    They have no pity timer, so any time is fine. I would do them first, just in case you pull a Legendary that you want, so it'll come out golden. Odds are low, of course, but you never know :)

    I was playing for the reset, but I played an extra game by mistake. Lost for the third time...and opened Kargath Bladefist with my pack lol. So much for that :D

    Skull of the Man'ari came out in Kobolds & Catacombs, as did all Legendary weapons at that time :P

    I did not forget about Fel Lord Betrug, but I failed to mention him for the reasons you described. They just don't play nice :(

    I like him a lot too, and play him in my Wild Plot Twist deck. It's too bad Willow doesn't cost 8; that would have been perfect.

    My favorite champion is Ashe, because I love to Frostbite people. Locking down threats for extended periods of time, while I build up my forces and run away with the game; that's the kind of Control game I like to play :D

    My favorite non-champion is probably Rimefang Wolf, for similar reasons. The combo of Ashe and the Wolf to bring down the toughest enemies; it just feels good.

    My favorite spell is not Frostbite-related, but rather is Ravenous Flock. Don't use it often, but I love the animation. Ca-caw!

    Funny that some people considered Supreme Archaeology the worst of the new Quests, and yet it has managed to outlast basically all of the competition.
