Riftbound rc ON metal prizes being pure placement is good for integrity and bad for how the game will look lol. There will not be a lot of legends making day 2. Best of system not including set 1 2 legends is very strange considering the amt of support Leona/lee/sett got set5

After some more testing I've "landed" here with my Riven list featuring Astral Heron. I've really enjoyed this list, feels incredibly strong even without the bird in play. Video coming out tomorrow discussing it in further detail! Some notes:
- T1 Unit -> T2 Riven to BF move to base w/ buff -> T3 Blade of the Exile is really strong and easy to snowball with.
- Being able to pull out +4M from Battle Preparations+ Discipline at reaction speed with 2 runes open feels treacherous.
- When Bird is out, game feels pretty much packed up for my opponent. Then proceeding to drop a Baron feels like a sin.
- Coming from Akali last set, this feels like the same deck on steroids.
- SB is a bunch of matchup specific stuff, will go into further detail in the video.
Video link will be in the replies and qrts when its up!
in tcgs there's terminology of 'putting you on x' as making a play that is winning unless they have a specific out/card, and the other day i was playing fighting games and saying it's good to spend bar, even inefficiently in kof, to 'put me on throw' (less than 100 health) xd

why did we print these new toys to already BDIF deck bro
matri TW you know i love it but it can asw be literally anything else. Barrowing combo is more stuff to pass up on with captain but TW is fetchable which is awesome. Also theres too many OP 2drops stranger can be TT too
think ppl are overrating eve sig spell. good but i dont see it being that crazy
radiance has a lot of combo cards compared to prev sets; combo cards that aren't powerful on their own aren't as powerful as op solo cards. bellows watcher individual cards r strong.
hope im wrong
I think this is the strongest card in the set, giving all hook decks stack deck is crazy. Can draw plenty of other cards.

Card Text:
When you play me, you can look at the top 4 cards in your deck, reveal a unit or gear that costs no more than 3 energy and 1 power and draw that card. Recycle the rest.

I rly like this card. Sure I played Renekton and he is bad. it’s just cool to burn runes. Decks with decent draw and hidden options can feasibly play a very aggressive gameplan now while supporting high power costs like punch/rebuke/switch/star. Mostly mad this isn’t in vendetta

this seems absurdly overpowered
no power cost, hits backline for some reason?

Ended up going 8-4 at RQLA
Overall still really happy with my list and how Akali performed. Seeing so many more players make Day 2/Top 64 with the legend was awesome to see
Huge congrats to @tempete2laneige on the top 8 with the deck! You played like a beast
I think the list is pretty close to solved for Set 4. I'll be back to the lab for the RCs and Set 5🧑🍳

Reuploaded the Xuan Dou Zhi Wang build on the archive so it doesn't get lost and so it's somewhere else other than MEGA.
