I'm gonna give a real life example of brewing to victory.

I'm playing Lucian Heckarim a deck with a 40% winrate if we want to be charitable probably 30%.

Against elites a 57% winrate deck, so how do …

Elites are very good right now they are the best aggro deck.

And Jayce is the best control deck.

All right were done let's go home guys.

Lor has the largest cardpool in its history accessible only …

I love Lor probably more than most people.

So if I see someone googling a list to counter mine I don't get salty I feel over joyed.

Like I bothered them so much winning with my memes that …

Now that does beg the question what is a more reliable metric of lower tier deck sucess if not statistics?

Brewing is a lot like sales or marketing.

It's learning about the power of losing.

Through loss you get better.

You brew better, your decks perform better.

You might even start ruffling a few feathers.

…

I've mentioned this before but there's a big difference between meming and being off meta.

Mogwai, Swim these guys understood that it's okay to play unique lists but only if they can beat what's popular.

So right now …

So we are getting 10 new variety cards coming soon to LOR and about a month to play around with them in our massive card pool.

Will it be removal, tribal support, archetype support, who knows but any of …

Can't even do math on a troll chant and I'm the bad player.

Demacia illoi isn't even a meta deck but sometimes when people think hand vomit is good play I remind them that if I play something one …

I've talked quite a bit on many platforms how the sudden mainstream success of both yetis and Leona surprised me quite a bit.

But the weirdness doesn't stop there:

Jayce Lux at 55% this ain't no isolated incident …

Depending on how some people are feeling on a giving day LOR "sucks" right now.

There's a lot of salt, a lot of hate, on reddit specifically.

People don't know what decks to play, and as soon as …

I've been on out of cards for a long time.

I've built countless decks in my spare time many of whom I bring back time and time again each time getting more refined and playable.

But most people …

Dude it's a meme deck...like I dont even know what to say.

Am I that strong that my junk needs hard counter brews for me to be stopped?

Wait isn't that basically the same as Majin?

Like if you're losing to mono freijord ramp with a splash of demacia don't feel bad.

Well maybe feel a little bad but you don't need to whip put meta tenticles to feel better about yourself.

I've been …

I dont like aggro, I don't.

I play next to zero aggro generally speaking.

But Ionia otk is such a polarizing archetype that it only has one weakness.

It has a 30% matchup table into every single …

I've been going on a bit of a schooling tear this fine Sunday. I do appologize I work an important job during the week so I'm getting it all out of the way now.

Sometimes winning is just winning, …

You see I'm a meme player I play bad decks.

But every now and then I will play a 50% winrate list that is optimized for tempo.

Then when you do nothing you will just lose.

Don't …
