Here is why comparing Le blanc to Zed is not working: Zed comes with the ability to clone himself before he levels up and he does it at gemspeed for 0 mana... do you even realize HOW terrible lb is? She is still a worse Zed after you've dealt 30 damage... and unlike ionia noxus can't protect lb at all... this sets whole new standards for the worst LoR champions of all time it's even worse than pre-rework Kalista
Sure you say it: lb is a units, a follower unit. she is not even close to the standards of what a champion should/can be and nobody would prefer her over Draven or Riven
I mean this card would makes sense... IN ANY REGION BUT NOXUS
Like... noxus has no means to protect lb and lb dies to any removal/combat trick... of cause Riot... I always wanted to use a championslot for a high risk low reward champion that 3/4 games just dies to a Mystic Shot...
PS: Riot we have the march 1st not April 1st just in case you did not notice
Without reputation this card is terrible and with reputation it might be very good in fringe decks but i have no idea if these fringe decks will be good at activating reputation... it's like a Three Sisters in extremely clunky and I don't see why riot gave noxus so many niche cards that hardly will find more than 1 home...
Thats a decent draw spell. The question is if reputation decks need to draw 2 for 2 once they have reputation and if they prefer to draw 2 over Trifarian Assessor for 5. Outside of reputation decks this is a 4 mana draw 2 which is not bad but also not good... actually this looks way less exiting thinking about it's uses
At first glance a 2 mana mimik sounds sick but once you relize how clunky this card is you realize this card is more like a 3/2 vanilla with a huge upside in 1 out of 4 games.
The fact that you have to hit reputation AND have struck with an ally makes this only really good if you have strike spells like Bloody Business used and develop the the board before attacking.
And such a play is slow, clunky and hardly ever pulled off... 2/5
The price in combination with the awefull condition makes this a pretty bad card. Sure, sometimes you get it through but I think it is not much more than 50 % of times especially against something like frostbite so why run a 4 cost spell to do nothing reliably?
in a way this is a Weapon Hilt, ...a pretty bad weapon hilt may I add
It's 2 spells for Lee Sin, and has a decent chance to give him overwhelm as well. This could be very disgusting
Its's not like Lee Sin would drop targon with the large amount of protection and spell generation just for the relic theme.
I mean i could see that the champion-tutoring from shurima is something that Lee Sin wants but most likely it targon with bastion will remain being it's partner of choice especially because we got more fast speed answers in the fallen empires
Anyways I don't understand why riot never went back and undo the cost changes given that Lee Sin was never that op at 6 mana
Also you have to see that these relics are fleeting and that having a chance to give overwhelm is not enough for a deck that has to give overwhelm
One thing that I am liking about this expansion so far is that the level up condition are less restrictive than those of call the mountain. I can see these champions finding home in many decks.
Can you remember how well rising tides was recieved when it was launched? It was amazing and I feel like the fallen empires will be such a set.
We get many new powerful cards and a new region which is not only good for saying NO! to every other deck and outgrind/ burry other decks in card advantage...
Like the game was great as long as targon didn't play a seroius role in it... lets hope these times return with fallen empires

Nice! This is a worse Version of Arachnoid Sentry...
A way worse version

35 sounds a lot... but it is itsnt. I gouess this will be a very decent shuriman midrange card.
The only thing I don't like is that she is so vanilla
High commitment, on a slow and pricy spell that is clunky to use? No , absolutely not
in a way this is a Weapon Hilt, ...a pretty bad weapon hilt may I add
This can be very strong but will it be good? I have no idea tbh
A spell that summons a unit that even an Trifarian Hopeful can look down on... mediocre is too nice of a word to describe this card
It looks nuts when played with Stormclaw Ursine but is this going to be a good archetype? I doubt it?
The question how fast you get this threshold done. If you get this to cost 2 mana in midgame it is really good if not this is quite pointless
this is a very good standalone follower will it be good enough? Maybe? It looks strong
The question is how this interacts with spelldamage boosts... i mean imagine throwing this off with 2 Powder Kegs in play...
