    Sorry I was letting you guys win because I wasn't sure what garbage you were playing.

    When I realized it was literally nothing all I had to do was tech more draw

    Yeah seems like you were trying to hard counter a tier F deck?

    What's your plan into anything else?

    No plan apparently, don't counter remember?

    Do the math if I win 5/5 with a deck you counter you get game 6

    I switch I go 5/5 again that's a 90% climb

    Oh right that meme deck you used to counter my aggro Mr lion, how did it fare into a healing deck one of the lowest tier options in the format?

    This is why we don't hard counter remember?

    Okay so we are back to hard counter meme territory which I always tell you guys not to do because it's 100% more embarrassing when you lose and it won't work on ladder I can switch decks illoi was just one of my old brews that recently got popularized in standard but my eternal version is great too

    Yeah and it's not as simple as playing fast either if you're bad at it.

    I was making a more nuanced argument that didn't lead you getting rolled

    The reason why swim and I can play fast is because we can burst 6 mana, look at your odds and say good luck.

    While you're just jamming cards reactively and hoping for the best.

    Yeah again you can tech your Viktor into a 90% anti aggro configuration and it won't change the fact that an aggro deck just snap removed your champ twice which was supposed to be doing something.

    Hence why it's not a good card in eternal like I said...cuz I know my stuff

    Now could you possible make Viktor work in eternal? Yes but not the way people play him where they toss him to the wolves. No I'm talking build around Viktor that might be something of you really tried.

    Champ tossing in general isn't great in eternal even though that's a staple of standard value play. I wouldnt do it here personally.

    Ruthless Rumble

    Normal BO3

    Runeterra Open pt 1 and pt 2

    Thats basically the June schedule

    So I do have to ask people of Eternal isn't a competitive format and doesn't matter to players in LOR

    How come the release of what we already had (full card pool ladder) is being treated like a massive event.

    It's almost like the whole standard is LOR now is kinda bs.

    Yes standard is LOR but so is eternal deal with it!

    Case and point someone was trying to play a nice little timelines equipment deck 

    I've seen it before...wait dead by turn 5

    And if they weren't dead by turn 5 they would be dead by turn Ryze

    Fast fast meta in eternal high power curve

    Now it's possible they were running a grindly deck to punish all the players who teched anti-aggro then you get punished by aggro tho no winning.

    The meta is what it is can't change it

    https://masteringruneterra.com/top-four-eternal-cards-from-each-region/

    Let's talk about their card choices for the "best" eternal cards:

    Pokey - can't get this one wrong

    Shellfolk - yeah no way you can make shellfolk competitive you'll get otked or aggroed or sundiscd or a million other things

    Allof traveler- a lot of Nora decks cut allof now, like amazing if you hit ramp and not much else

    Inventive chemist - not a lot of midrange landmark running around either

    Bilgewater:

    Tf: a little slow now you  wont find a ton of tf

    Gangplank: midrange plunder will always be a deck I just dont think it's the best deck anymore to be running with midrange suffering in general

    Fortune croaker: healing decks? Maybe? Idk

    Allegience: yeah just a plunder card so one deck it hits and I haven't seen it in eternal yet

    Demacia:

    Lux: jayce lux isn't the scourge it used to be and while it will always be good aggro got a loooot of tools to out pace lazer

    Rangers resolve: don't play this card its usually more effective to use equipment now

    Sharpsight: they straight up printed a better version of this card

    Bannerman: yes elites will always be playable but once again midrange is suffering

    Freijord:

    Feel the rush: this one is correct because even Jack turbo levels when this spell is played so it's combo uses are only increasing with time

    Spirits unleashed: a little slow but I've played with this card before and it's not bad but again haven't seen it do much in eternal yet

    Trundle: yeeeeeeep obviously

    Troll chant: best burst in the game pound for pound

    Ionia:

    Deep med: there are straight up better draw cards printed even Ryze will usually pass on this now

    Twin: you won't see a ton of twin these days like trying.to turbo a master yi or whatever usually they play the one mana equipment burst

    Homecoming: best card in the ryze deck if they highroll multiple landmarks early not as good in other decks

    Health potion: no

    Noxious: 

    Legion rearguard - yeah best aggro card

    House spider - still gets played in yassao because it's desperate for board presence that's about it, maybe Annie?

    Flock - yeah best removal card in the game

    Stun spider - sure pretty okay staple not amazing or anything

    P and z:

    Ezreal - yes very much so enables a unique wincon not found in other Champs

    Viktor - has no home right now and nobody cares

    Thermo - very good card

    Get excited - Jinx only basically

    Shadow:

    Vile feast: not as amazing as it used to be as more and more one drops get printed that will out value it, you almost would rather tech quietus plus the new culling strike

    Elise: has no real home right now iceborn legacy spiders sucks, and go hard sucks

    Attrocity: doesn't get run after the nerf ever

    The box: ummmmm no

    Shurima:

    Absolver - the game has moved beyond this card like you can play akshan Samara and instant rally with glave the power curve is just too high for one overwhelm spell to matter

    Sivir - doesn't have a home right now, along with cards like Ash, undir, just slower midrange wincons

    Endless devout - mono shurima staple so it gets a pass

    Presavarium - sure always relavent 

    Targon:

    Aphelios - gonna feel very bad with how slow he is

    Zoe - yes because she's a free cycle so her dying doesn't matter, but her wincon is fairly irrelevant

    Mountain goat - meh like very meh by today's standards

    Sketcher - just no you can do better

     

    This article gets a D+ from me 50% obvious picks 50% I haven't played eternal at all and am not an authority on this format.

    They'll see once ladder starts in a week, have fun trying to climb with aphelios and spacey sketcher when people are otking you, aggroing you by turn 4, or doing some insanely broken combo.

    Thats what this format really is LOR modern.

    Don't just run inferior versions of my deck I've said this before.

    It's tested I just went like 90% against an entire lobby of top tier snipers 

    What else do you want?

    Sorry did your top tier Annie ezreal list get top tiered by me?

    Qq

    It's almost like I've selectively run this deck into every top tier matchup and already top tiered it.

    You want to pull out some jayce next?

    Been there done that
