Why playing Faster Isn't Better

A really common fallacy I see in LOR players is the idea that if you can jam your wincon as hard as possible as fast as possible that makes you a strong player.

This is a ladder playing philosophy and the problem with this two dimensional playstyle is that you're essentially letting yourself get read.

Its like okay all I have to do is play a deck that's sufficiently fast enough to deal with opponent jamming their hand and I'l win guaranteed because there is no fall back plan, no nuance, no what the hell is that.

Honestly, it's sad really.

Anyway here's my new region rankings after the patch:

1. Ionia

2. Shadowisles

3. Bilgewater

4. Shurima

5. Noxious

6. Demacia

7. Targon

8. Freijord

9. Bandle city

10. Runeterra
