Ra Ra Rasputin posted:Does anyone know if the expedition free token is handed out for free each week or if it's just a one time tutorial reward? Tutorial reward and apparently one of you level up your weekly chest enough My only annoyance is the way some triggers are handled differently and it's not explained Anivias on attack trigger (and Vlad's) go on the stack and can be responded to, purely buffing or summoning ones cannot (like the +1/1 and fearsome buff I couldn't respond to with a kill spell before someone else got buffed) Tripped me up after responding to an anivia then getting blown out by the latter

Important to note, after you do your 3/week of an expedition you can do infinite runs (though they only give XP) for free

Reminder that unlike magic, due to the existance of burst spells (which in magic would be split second), Deny can't really interact with combat tricks. IT's very good at shielding from removal/mass removal, so i'd expect aggro/challenger strategies with buffs raise to counter the elusives.

The secret to expeditions is Jam Ionia Elusive with either Freyjord or Demacia for buffs. It's super unlikely more than 1 opposing deck in your run will have the aggro strategy to beat you.

I think the Freljord combo will suffer, as up until 7 mana your only removal is 1/3 brekpoints, which evasives will be buffed out of range for. To be 100% clear my draft strategy is: Give me Elusives until I have a solid base GIVE ME EVERY INSPIRING MENTOR YOU HAVE

Listen if we care about power level we just need to compare AP ratios. So Release Neeko is the most powerful.

d0grent posted:Yasuo stun/recall decks seem very strong from what I've seen so far, and from what I can tell it's also a good counter to elusive decks. Does this hold up at higher ranks? Eh not really, if you're just spending your turn delaying the elusive they are gonna get value, plus you tend to buff the elusives out of range of 2 damage

Boxman posted:The strength of their early game is in proportion to how completely poo poo they are in the late game. An inspiring mentor in your starting hand is fuckin great, but if you're trying to win a board back it's a pretty terribad draw. At least Aristocrat gives a chump block for two turns. I'd argue any deck really trying to kill you is gonna use some combo of elusive/overwhelm/Burn damage/Fearsome to ignore the road block

Hearthguard is more powerful but considering Inspiring mentor can lead to wins the turn you drop a hearthguard or the turn after I feel it's apple's to oranges It's similar to how Progress day is a very powerful card but expensive and slow.

mistaya posted:"You don't have to play the thing that can potentially give you several thousands of EXP and bonus rewards!" While technically correct, if you want to get more cards for constructed you also want to get as much EXP as possible to unlock the capsules. So if I want to have more fun in constructed, I feel obligated to play expedition even though I don't like it. If you do like it, congrats, I'm glad you like it. It was also built for a denyless meta which for me hasn't existed , every deck starts holding up deny by the time your big plays are online

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:His levelup doesn't require him to be on board to see you deal the damage, you can just keep popping any of the 1 damage effects every turn and pop him fully leveled on 5. I mean I expect bilgewater noxus with the new 2/3 that pings 1 of your units for 1 to hit the enemy nexus for 2 seems perfect for keeping GP levels rolling.

Well, this actually messes with my gameplan verses undying synergy and some elusives games, as being able to lock them on a board with less than optimal units was actually useful.

Sedisp posted:Correct me if I'm wrong but the "stack" in LoR resolves the same way as it does in MTG right? I guess in this specific incident you would have a chance to respond in MtG after the spell resolved to buff the damaged unit since the initiative system doesn't exist. Yeah thats the key difference, the stack is layered the same but you only gain priority every time there is the possibility of a stack, and there has been a change of state since you last had control i.e. someone plays a slow/fast spell (adding to the stack) Combat has begun. If both sides pass in turn the stack resolves as is, if someone adds, then priority passes to the opponent who can add more spells (resetting the state "Timer) or can pass and let things resolve

Yeah sorry I forgot burst spells in my explanation, doing anything except passing created a new priority window even if there's nothing to respond to. Hence burst pass letting your opponent play a slow

jimmydalad posted:So, I’m watching Swimstrim and he’s playing an Ezreal/Diana deck that looks real loving degenerate. Turns out, when Ezreal levels up, gems proc his ability. I think there was one match where he dealt 30 damage to the enemy over two rounds once the levelled up Ezreal hit the board. He's now removed the diana, this list is so nutty. Gems are basically a mroe efficient (as in how you get them) mushroom like in the old deck, and hush works really well
