Legends of Runeterra

every card game has an arena game type that people with good skills and want to get all cards witchout spending thousands of dollars can play to grind there way up there. in most of these games you can get the currency that you spent on the arena run and start profiting is after about 65% of the run being won. in legends of runeterra you only get back the currency that you spent after fully winning the expedition!!!! and you dont get a sinhle extra green essense you litterly end up with 2000. and if you finiah with 6 oit of 7 wins you only get 1000 essense wich means you lose half of it. that it self ia extremly greedy since it will be hard to grind the expedition. but we can argue that it is much easier to get a perfect run in runeterra than other card games. but then you have a LIMITED AMOUNT OF EXPEDITIONS PER WEEK. that is the most greedy and bullshitty thing i have ever seen in a cardgame. seriously riot proved it self more greedy that blizzard with that cheap move. they blocked all our ways of grinding up the full collection of cards and is forcing us to either grind for many weeks or to pay alot of money to get the cards. honestly this is a game breaking experiense for me and i dont think i will take this game seriously anymore since it is such a money trap. 

thanks for reading my rant and excuse my poor english please

I wanted to know if this was happening to anyone else. I have had a couple games where the game had decided that I don’t want to defend, at key moments where defense is a necessity. It’s led to several losses, even in ranked. It’s not that the game times out. It just skips my defense step entirely. Again, I just wanted to know if this is happening to anyone else and if they are looking into it.

Is there anything similar to HSReplay for Runeterra? Tks

I'm not a fan at all of stealing, I hated it in hearthstone. But it is already in game so I have to accept it. BUT what is a huge problem that we don't know what card was stolen. I just lost a game cause guy stole 2 will of ionias and put karma then radiant in my hand. But if u can see what cards where stolen u can play around. But like that it's just sucks and feels very unfair. So I suggest that change. And also the interface should show us which spells where made by Karma so u can know, that it's your opponent s original deny or will, or its a spell made by Karma.

Interface has to improve, pilfered goods MUST CHANGE!

Question is in the title: have you purchased a cosmetic, and/or do you plan to buy one? Are there any particular cosmetics you want to see in the game? I'm just curious if anyone has bothered; I have yet to see something new in my Runeterra games.

I want to buy a board or two, but I haven't done it yet. Looking up the music on YouTube has led me to believe I will eventually buy the Iceborn Peak board, and possibly the Slaughter Docks board as well. As for everything else:

• I don't see the value in the guardians, but if they ever hand one out I'll take a Silverwing, thank you.
• My favorite card backs currently are the ones you earn (namely Freljord, Bilgewater, and Demacia).
• I don't need new emotes because I'm fine with just the Hello-Braum and the GG-Shen.

My hope/dream is that eventually we'll see a cool Leona vs Diana board when Mt. Targon comes out, and then I'll just use that one forever. I would also insta-buy a Lissandra board, but that would probably overlap too much with Iceborn Peak.

I have some ideas for what rule sets Riot could implement for Gauntlets and Labs, let me know what you think of them!

1. A max of 3 Regions

2. A max of 6 unique champions (so you could have up to 18 total champions in a deck)

3. At the start of each round, players who had the attack token last round and didn't use it create a Fleeting Relentless Pursuit in hand 

4. 25 Nexus Health 

5. Players start with 1 Spell Mana and a 0/1 in play

6. The Power and Health of all units is swapped

7. The cost of units can be payed for with up to 1 Spell Mana. 

These were just some off the top of my head, but I think they help show how amazing Labs and Gauntlets could be for Runeterra! 

There has always been pros and cons of live card balancing in games when compared to the hands off approach of mtg.

For one, you can unintentionally ruin what has made you game fun by listening to your fans, Gwent being a great example with it's gold update.

Similarly, with it's limited card pool and emphasis on champions,  Legends of Runterra has to be cautious not to make too many archetypes unplayable.

So what changes did we see and what are the meta implications...

1. Stand alone no longer works with Zed, this list want never top tier so why did Riot want to kill this champion

2. Elise is worse because she can't flood the board with brood swarm - again not on the tier list so this nerf doesn't make sense

3. Legion rearguard was an aggro card not a burn card per say, so now Darius and Katarina are worse

4. Badger bear was showing up in control decks, but they nerfed the damage not the toughness, so they made it worse at aggro but still good in control

5. Unyielding spirit still exists so Fiora is fine, even though she was the nerf target

6. Boomcrew nerf was needed and well implemented

7. Grizzles ranger got double nerfed and is now unplayable

Unintended meta consequences

control variants are the only archetypes worth playing mid range and aggro are dead

So no bannerman, no noxious anything that isn't swain

Region diversity will appear healthy, but deck archetypes will all be very slow

Fun for some, absolutely awful for the majority of players 2/3

Do something about Unyielding Spirit already! That card is BS and people are finding even more BS ways to use it.

I would like better Sound cues's for when my Time is about to Run Out it's fairly easy to think about whom i use witch spell tu use on or who i use to defend and lose sight of the timer

I was literally hovering over the final spell to win the match when the internet went out for about 5 minutes. Give me my win now!

I can only play them once every vault reset. Please lower the price.

Also first topic. :D

Any idea how to add the guy u are playing with? i cant figure out the region they belong to. And i need to insult the bitches using gay decks. Thanks

Hello:

Does anyone know if the decklists for the AI opponents are available?  I just came across a deck called, "Tortured Souls" (Kalista & Thresh) that really intrigued me - as it crushed me as well.

I've only begun playing this game, but I really like it.

Sorry, had technical difficulties about something. This is the OFFICIAL place where all the cards will be posted. The other was unorganized, so I scraped it. Had a little issue with pictures. Sorry about that! 

 Anyway, welcome to the first custom Legends of Runeterra Expansion! Like on here and Reddit. Me, with help from KANSAS, are leading the charge to make more custom LoR cards on this site. If you want to help more with this project, like making a region's cards or just singles, PM me! Anyone is welcome.  No new regions or keywords this time,  just the cards. There are custom champions here to showcase the sins, not any in LoL. Feedback is very much appreciated. It is my first time and I want to improve it.

The story here is Ezreal, the master of activating traps due to relics. accidently released the 7 mortal sins onto Runeterra.  Well, 5 at least. They now have rooted themselves to a region that fits them. They corrupt them with their evil. They first take human-like garbs to best fit it, but as they get more powerful, they reveal their true forms. Hope you enjoy this, it is been fun to make.

Bilgewater: 0/10

DEMACIA!: 0/10

Freljord: 0/10

Ionia: 0/10

Noxus: 2/10

Can't wait to see the final product and just a quick heads up that the google slide is unacessable.

Weird Shader bug?

Hi all,

Dont know if this is the right place to post this but an issue occurred  today while playing Expedition. My last win was not recorded and it showed a "failed to connect error" . Im using LOR Guardian app to help me play this game, and it was recorded there .

screenshot to prove. Running shen ,garen.

Expeditions are hard to win and one unrecorded win can make you lose the whole thing. Is there anything i can do?https://imgur.com/nj4aNTt

In honor of his buff in the upcoming patch, I thought I'd share what I think is the best Vlad deck.  Note that it is an evergreen deck with no Rising Tides cards--not by intention, but because I honestly don't like any of the new cards in this decklist.

Cards I considered but ultimately cut:

• Ember Maiden has some potential, but I don't like the downsides: you can't stop it, it hurts your own nexus, it triggers opposing Crimson Disciples, and it usually only lives 1.5 rounds.
• Kindly Tavernkeeper is popular in other decks but I just hate the slow speed and meager effect.  Even with the upcoming attack buff, I think he's just too underwhelming
• Mogwai loves Noxian Fervor in this archetype.  For me, I just really hate dealing 3 to my own units here: it usually means the unit will die, and this deck succeeds or fails based on maintaining board presence.
• An earlier version of this decklist ran Noxian Guillotine.  While its definitely an underrated card in general, I think this deck needs units and buffs a lot more than it needs a conditional removal spell.
• I played a little with Stalking Wolf: it often can kill its own rabbit for free progression, and a 3-attack challenger threatens many key backline units.  Ultimately I cut it because I didn't like its lineup against P&Z/Noxus burn, but that may no longer be a factor
• I'd love to incorporate Avarosan Hearthguard--everything in this deck really loves buffs--but its just too greed.  The current 4-6 drops all have more immediate impact due to synergies and the 1-3 drops and buffs are necessary to contest early game.

Cards currently in which I could reconsider:

• Starlit Seer is in mostly to provide a couple more 2-drops in case we miss Crimson Disciple.  This was necessary with the prevalence of Noxus/P&Z decks; if aggro's popularity goes down, I could see cutting it.
• I have a 1-of Bloodsworn Pledge carried over from my original list.  There are times when it wins me the game--e.g., land it on a regenerating unit, or a disciple which my opponent assumed was going to die.  Other times, it just feels like worse version of Take Heart.  As a result, I don't feel strongly for or against it.
• Babbling Bjerg is a similar carried-over 1-of.  He tutors the Vlad, which means you can either play Vlad on board (which is usually a good thing) or if you have an existing Vlad he's a Transfusion (which is always a great thing).  In practice, though, he feels slow: there's almost something more interesting I'd rather do with my mana.

Hi, i'm new to this game (play it since may 15.) .

Are Unassailable Decks good vs Meta?

What protector shall i choose? 

Hello there people! I saw that this part of fan creations is bare. Like really dusty. I'm here to fix that! This is what I like to call a booster set because no new region is present here. 

So what is the story here? It all began when our good friend Ezreal unleashed the 7 mortal sins onto Runeterra. Well, 5 of the 7 at least. They now spread across the regions clinging to the ones that relate to them the most, corrupting them.

One thing I have say: the SINS are champs here, not any regular ones. I know this is not going to be well received, but I have my heart set on doing this. 

Now that is out of the way, this is just here to put a place to display them. I have ideas, but they are not cards yet. This is just to set up. Remind me to delete this later. Also, if you want to create cards with me, join in! PM me and I will assign you a region to do if you want. Individual cards are fine too. I claim P + Z though. I'll update this in 24 hours or so with cards.
