Why Ionia Is Meta Again

Ionia has always had acess to the best costed "removal" in the game in the form of bounces.

It remains the only way to simultaneously deal with big units, equipment, and attachments and buffed stats instantly under curve.

The good "Kayle" deck

https://masteringruneterra.com/deck/CQDACBIKW4AQCBICAYBAGCJQLABAMAQME4BAMCIIEMCQCAQJCQNCUNAAAEAQIAQH

Spoiler alert there is 1 card from Kayle's kit in this entire deck.

The rest is utilizing Ionia board Swarm and buff tactics. Things like keeper of masks and squirel on 3 to give everything 1 + …

Spoiler alert it mostly has to do with her kit and the lack of substantial benefits for hand buffing right now.

Mana 1: a 2/1 that can have life steal...like okay but I'd rather play a 2/1 that either …

Once again Riot hits it out of the park with its patches proving that they are generally far more exciting then the expansions themselves.

Also no rotation yet thank God, my boy vlad gets to still draw breath.

Deck Highlight - Graplr Nora Braum

https://youtu.be/mbDFH9Pz3us

People who know me are familiar with my love of Freijord.

Often times the absolute worst region in the game suffering in the midrange and control archetypes vs stronger alternatives with aggro not existing in that color.

I'm not gonna sit here and say ramp good, Gwen good, attrox good, plunder good.

Is Marvel Snap Kind Of A Bad Game?

Yeah like even Mogwai has been pretty quiet lately with his uploads and he was this games biggest cheerleader.

The problem is that the game just doesn't have "reactive plays."

End-of-year Best Decks

LOR Champ Design - How To Guarantee Longevity

LOR is a card game that is increasingly not only having superficial similarities with magic the gathering, but is also running into similar problems.

Namely, there are too many "set mechanics" being introduced into the game.

For a second I want to imagine that you're a card game designer, creating a design document that outlines the creation of a game.

End-of-year Best Decks

I hate to be that guy but these takes are kinda hot garbage.

Pirate aggro was swinging around 60% winrate because killing opponents is better then not killing opponents.

Vayne has seen similar sucess with Atrox because he's …

Why rotation in LOR Is Stupid

[runedeck]16321[/runedeck]

Both are very strong in Vlad

But guess who's number one on the rotation chopping block?
