Regarding The Rekindler, I don't think it would be appropriate to nerf it unless you can come up with a couple of other decks where it's truly oppressive.

If Hecarim is pretty much the only time Rekindler is a problem, that points to the real problem being Hecarim. In fact, Rekindler could make …

Welcome to LoR!

There's lots of things to try and learn in this game, and FrostyFeet and DoubleSummon have already given some nuggets so I'll just build upon specifically talking about champions. The way I see it, there are 3 types of champions in this game:

  1. Those that you need to build your deck around to get …

Yeah--someone on reddit compared Garen's both-sides board to a toilet bowl and now I can't unsee it. :-P

Now that that's done, my comments:

  • This isn't really a spiders deck; its your typical midrange SI wraithcaller deck. If you're trying to play it like a spider deck (i.e., trying to level Elise), you're probably piloting it wrong
  • Most of these decks are running [runecard]The Harrowing[/runecard]; its pretty much broken when you rez mulitple Hecarim

In the future if you want to share a deck on this site, you should:

  1. Click on the "Deckbuilder" button 
  2. Import your deckcode, then at the bottom fill out the associated fields for name, etc and click "save"
  3. This will automatically take you to a new page that has a unique number in the URL; take …

You DEFINITELY need to sort this out with Riot's support team.

Be considerate of the fact I think they all work in US Monday-Friday, so you probably aren't going to hear back from them for the next ~40 hours. But in my limited experience, when they do finally get around to responding, the guys seem pretty friendly and understanding.

But ... but ... if you admit Kalista is garbage (and she definitely is), why not just put in literally any other Champion, or even a strong follower, instead of trying to make her work?

Truthfully? Because I have opened 3 Kalista, 23 Thresh, 1 Elise (not counting the starting 2), …

It looks like you're relying heavily on Zed for your deaths--how consistent is that? If not very: you might want to consider [runecard]Silent Shadowseer[/runecard].

I think [runecard]Vanguard Redeemer[/runecard] is must-have. If you're getting consistent ally deaths it should be a 3/3 plus draw for 3 mana; if you're not getting consistent deaths, you probably want to retool your deck …

For context, I usually play for 1-2 hours ranked (hovering at gold 3-4 ATM) every night. Lately, it seems like I've been getting wildly different results every night. Like yesterday: I had a quest to frost bite so I was playing my Frejlord/Noxus battle scar deck but I could get a win to save my life. Then I switched over …

Demacia: 11/20

Frejlord: 13/20

Ionia: 8/20

Noxus: 11/20

P&Z: 8/20

SI: 17/20

 

Very interesting. Bold choice skipping over Braum, but I don't think its wrong.

Do you ever try to answer elusives, or do you just start race them? Lately I've been using [runecard]Noxian Guillotine[/runecard] and [runecard]Whirling Death[/runecard] for that, but as their both Noxus cards that would contest your much-needed Outriders' allegiance.

So what do i do? I suppose i can freeze but that's just temporary and i use mana on a delay effect while the enemy builds the board. with cheap creatures that keep dealing chip damage on me.

If you wait until after they announce her as an attacker and then block …

Quote From neonangel

I went through the artwork and couldn't find an established character that matched. Maybe it's just "some guy".

Yeah, that was kinda my conclusion too--except its weird to me that 1 would be a clear reference and the other wouldn't.

I can't get my head around this card. Is it meant as a buff? A debuff? A situational card that you include 2x and hope you don't draw it until that moment when you absolutely need it?

That [runecard]Hecarim[/runecard] + [runecard]The Harrowing[/runecard] combo is pretty broken. Expect lots more [runecard]Will of Ionia[/runecard] and [runecard]Detain[/runecard]s incoming.

Yeah--mathwise, that sounds like a HORRIBLE deal. Any day of the year, you can get 7 packs for the same price; granted, those results will be scattered across all 9 classes, but it's 40% more cards for something that's even not "on sale". Normally, their deals are something like $20 for 25-30 packs. I'm afraid of what happens if …

Yeah, I think its something like 1% chance per capsule (i.e., ~9% for max vault)

There is no refunding.

If you absolutely need a certain card:

  1. Craft it using a corresponding wild card if you have one
  2. If no WC: use your shards
  3. If not enough shards: set your rewards to that region and pray you get lucky sooner rather than later

Is it just me or are the pictures not showing? Probably bad host?

I'm not seeing either. The associated URLs are a mile long; might be a character limit issue.

Kripp seems to be impressed, and that's usually a good enough reason for some amount of optimism.

Yeah, but Kripp could also get extremely excited about something that most players would consider niche (e.g., improvements to Arena, tie-ins to Diablo, etc).
