Seems like this confirms Galio and possibly Hecarim/Sera. We had Hec in a previous version and I remember him being one of the worst champs in the game mode.
And why does Norra get a Norra only relic? She doesn't even need the mana.

>>1415865
Maybe its a precedent. Like, everyone will get their "own" epic relic

Norra is surprisingly good in PoC. I expected her to be rough since her deck's super expensive but I've pretty much never bricked.
I also didn't expect her powers to be so consistently good, both her 1* (when you summon a created ally, grant it +1/+1) and 2* (game start and when you play a card with a base cost of 4+: plant a portal) looked mediocre but the 1* gets constant use (particularly with husks) and makes early portals more valuable, and the 2* makes sure you don't run out of portals and gives you a reason to use expensive cards.
Her only weakness I've seen so far is she takes a while to win because your units aren't particularly high value and the enemy usually has a lot of chump blockers, I'm sure that'll change a little once you get 3* (+3/+1 instead of +1/+1) or if I slap an overwhelm aura relic on her.

Trying some PoC and managed to beat Asol on my first attempt by highrolling into shared keywords on Neeko.

>>1420317
Oh yeah double attack is cracked
Surprising you managed to make it to when asol starts dropping
In that topic, its so fucked how they turned him into the champions champion
He should have been celestial summoning ffs

>>1420825
Oh this was turn 2 which is why the only bonus champ is Jarvan, I got the burst speed clone emperor's deck card with copy onto same targets and force a discard then Garen had the 1/1 poro item.

Woo 2 for 2 on Asol attempts. Triple start of round stun and on play strike with Janna and Ornn.

>fight before asol
>azir with copy
>turn 1, double azir
>turn 2, double landmark
>now every attack is a board full of sand soldiers
Well I'd been rolling like garbage the whole adventure anyway, 1 good power, useless support champ, and 2 good cards, so there's no way I was beating asol.

>>1420851
How come Asol got out then?
He ramps slower than that, unless they changed it with the patch (they changed a bunch of nodes, and most notably, thresh is not THAT much of a pushover now)
>>1421323
Double copy azir is an easy run killer

>>1422047
Oh wait yeah Asol was levelled so this was turn 3, he dropped three mana golems on turn 1 which let him get Asol turn 2 and then I blocked them so he'd waste all his mana playing asol instead of clearing my board so the open attack on 3 would win the game.

Just did Lissandra with Asol, what the fuck. How are you expected to reach Lissandra, let alone beat her, with other champs? I had a fucking Katarina on Asol and I still almost lost. Nigger was dropping 9/9's with tough every turn while limiting you to 3 cards per turn until he drops a 80/138 Watcher and puts you on a "hope you don't draw 3 times :^)" clock. You don't even get many chances to shop/buy powers/buy items for your champs. That's not even mentioning the 99 nexus health + tough.
Meanwhile every fight up to her is "Enemies have +1 mana, btw if they hit 10 mana you probably lose".

Getting into Path of Champions and whoever decided to shove in the retarded punishment for rerolling is a cunt. I don't want to be forced to play through Galio for 20 minutes with a shit power so I can restart with good ones just because I accidentally clicked play with the wrong character.

>>1423120
You can reroll after 2 wins, but most powers are usable so it's not worth it unless you roll really badly.
And it was done for a reason, people used to reroll until they got a really good power because it took no time.

>>1422142
from the champs i tried, easiest to hardest are asol, elder, yasuo, anne, and illaoi and the only run I'd say i was tryharding is illaoi. artrox probably as good as elder due to chunky unit and cost reduction, champs with cheap/free removal like yasuo and anne is really good, veigar probably would perform nicely as well.

Champ update when. I have nothing to spend fragments on.

WR just got Viego, Kalista and Maokai.
I wonder if we will receive the rest of the SI champions.

>>1432891
There are 3 SI champs left, Karthus, Vex and Yorick, I can't see them only dishing out SI champs even if the game's moved to PoC.

How do I play Pyke in PoC without losing my mind? I've got him up to 2 stars and it still feels like I need to get a godly set of powers and items to even stand a chance.

>>1434975
I feel that was about Yuumi. Two star and level 16 but half the time I get rolled over by enemies because mass Fated is useless when I have to constantly go wide instead of attaching so I don't get run over.

>>1434975
His nerf really hurt his PoC performance. But he's not that hard to play, though he does benefit a lot from his 3* and lurk requires you cut spells a lot of the time.

>>1435034
Yuumi's Pretty good, free chump blockers and she's the only champ that can use galeforce. You want that 2 mana unit to attach with, then things get easy.

Lee Sin
>Arguably a nerf, a cheap flow enabler is turned into an expensive flow user (albeit a better card in general, and if you have flow it's only +1 cost)

Nasus
>2* arguably got nerfed, arguably buffed
>deck was also arguably nerfed too

Nilah
>2* changed, it'll help prevent deck outs but if it stacks you're going to be drawing tons of cards every round start

Ornn
>Nice buff to his 1* and 3*

It's nice they're making some of the worse decks a little more viable. Saying that, I still have nothing to spend fragments on but now I can buy 2 3* champs because I have a cap of 200.

>>1436523
Oh and also
>no event pass
It's over.

>>1436523
Man bard's power is still neutered but I guess it helps quite literally being more than twice as strong
The revival buff was so necesary, for anything that wasn't a dumb/bullshit loss against a regular node, you might as well just concede
The loss won is really good, for those bullshit like how galio/asol/lissandra can get, you need something
The fragments makes me think we will get much more champs (about time). 200 cap and 5 daily is big. Or maybe 4 star champs finally

Bard had NO REASON to have a ballader. It sucked hard. Now? He can get a kill minion on play. Big change. Also the chimes
Evelynn, I suspect cause you stat max anyway and regen works better. Also for that you DONT want to kill your mooks in droves but rather just enoguh to level evelynn up

Nasus change is weird, it was flavorful but weak and now its just the common power. Weird.

Ornn finally got more space to play his shit. Landmark's n1 issue was always the already limited board space and they took that away.
>>1436524
They can't monetize what people actually play kek
Gotta add every fucking champ out there and make fragment buying much more attractive

>>1434975
Get lucky. Seriously. There's no helping it-
Naturally of course you get your saber to do at least "some" damage. The collector isn't bad either
But either way, he's gonna suck early

It's virtually impossible to avoid getting your face punched against this fucking bitch.

You will address him as AURELION SOL.

>>1442063
I struggled a bit with the weekly myself (fuck the hexcore foundry node in particular), but Darius isn't too bad imo - the end of turn damage from his power doesn't proc Blade in the Darkness from what I saw.

So what's going on with LoR? PotC focus until the internal restructuring is over?

>>1445810
>until
No. They never made a profit, literally ever, in some cases some monetization attempts actually cost more to make than made back let alone all the other costs. The PotC focus is an attempt to monetize a different aspect of the game that is very popular (according to internal data), it might be that it's the most profitable part of the game because there's a long grind and a way to skip that grind.
If there's an until then it's until Riot pulls the plug.

Rotation list is out, RIP basically everything and welcome back to Vi.

But this link's probably more useful.

From a quick glance, they put in Braum/Vlad (which was unplayable last I checked), Lulu aggro, Hecarim aggro, and potentially Fiora bullshittery.

They also killed Liss by leaving her in but removing all the other Thrall cards.

Jarro Lightfeather getting a card is all the game was really missing.

>>1454820
The mass layoffs happened without warning so of course they are gonna release all the cards that were close to completion.

>>1454820
They probably figure they're easy enough to translate into PvE.
Lux may be difficult because scaling's a problem, but she gives free +1/+1's and she's a cheap champ which is always good. Her 3* is kinda shit though, it makes sense since it benefits more from boost but impact isn't that great. I suppose we'll see.
Vex looks like she'd be fine, any damage is going to whittle away at strong units and any AoE is basically a slow board wipe. Might run into trouble when enemies start getting Spirit keywords though.
Lilia could be alright, sleep should always be useful and she's getting double spirit buffs (unlike Lux, though with a harder condition). It's a pity they gave her an 8 cost unit though. Unless it's given the "I cost 1, I'm a 1/1 poro" item (which I doubt, it's already 1/1) I can't see it being anything other than cutbait.

>>1455315
They might give it Grow to 8/8 or reduce cost by highest cost champ so she's big or 5 cost.

With an IP like LoL they should've been swimming in money.

>>1456834
Probably just took too much effort for too little amount profit (if any). I think they said there'd still be an event but no battle pass. Don't forget, they were deep in the red, nothing they were doing was making money.

the update is here

Is the buy deck button new? Haven't played constructed in forever.

Well after playing for 5 minutes fuck sleep. It doesn't need the heal on top of the infinite buff loop. Bastards decided to make Brash the worst keyword in the game in the same set that they added a card to let me steal low health enemies.

Spells getting keywords confirmed.

>>1457619
For those wondering, when I drew it the item was gone. I was half expecting it to crash the game so at least they handle it well.
Also, Boost only affects positive keywords for you and negative keywords for enemies, makes it way better.

Kinda want to figure out a Taric-Vlad deck since reworked Vlad mass targets on play.

>>1457619
i'm sure they just forgot to blacklist spells from that item but lux v1's final spark is overwhelm and lurk has a couple of spells

Why the fuck did they release Lix again?

>>1457979
Spells should be able to have lurk though, it's inconvenient 99% of the time but it lets you trigger lurk if the spell is the top card. Like the Bilge rally card comes with it.

Well that was fun. Why go though all the trouble sleep looping when you can just give the Sprite Mother deathless then soul cleave her.

>>1458037
But anon! This time you can BOOOOOOOOST your +1/+1! It's so exciting and fun!

Anyone else think it's too easy to stack impact? I'm seeing enemies hit 6 impact in one turn and unless you have an immediate answer it just kinda sucks to see.

>>1458168
take the targonpill. the lux player only has enough resources to stack impact on 1 or 2 little fuckers, usually, so if you keep those units permastunned/silenced they can't do anything.

Just so you know, Vex's 2* isn't proc'd by non-skills like the Ravenous Hydra relic. There are only a handful of damaging non-skills so it's easy to forget.

>>1455640
Fuck, why is mister root so suicidal

>>1457979
It was obviously a joke, but I think they accidentally put them on spells instead of units, I don't think I've seen a single unit with it (starting deck units aside).

Now that we are done with the contained format what do we think of the story sets?

>Lux and Vex have dreams that turn into supernaturally corrupted nightmares that Lillia fixes
>Retard Monster hunters like Nilah and Demacian dragonriders keep poking legends and either make friends (Morgana/Janna) or wake up an ancient evil and running away to let it be someone else's problem (Volibear, Mordekaiser, Elder Dragon)
>Sett runs a fighting tournament only for a bunch of Noxian assassins led by Samira to infiltrate and for both sides to have their fun ruined by dumb shark people led by Jack deciding to fight everyone

>>1458736
Could've used more Demacian horrors
Nilah's crew got fucked by Mord so that's pretty cool

Yeah I ended up seeing a couple on units after making that post, on champ item drafts, draft drafts and in store.
Wouldn't put it past them though.

They should have made an Orlon card, then they could've made a Spirit of Orlon card, then make a Dream/Nightmare Orlon card...
Why doesn't Orlon have a card, he's literally one of the founding fathers of Demacia? He should've got at least one or two when Poppy was added...

We already know what he looks like from the unused Wild Rift Lux Storyboard, why not actually show him in lore instead of being rarely mentioned? What's worse is at least Durand and Doran got mention in LoR, but Orlon never got mentioned at all in LoR...

It's obvious that Riot is evading him, because he's part of Poppy's lore and they are still seething about Poppy being the Hero of Demacia and not Lux or Garen or Jarvan, they're so mad at a Yordle having lore that outright canonly says she's Stronger than all of the Demacian Champs put together that they have to rely on this Smol Cootie Patootie Yordle to save them from total destruction that Riot lore writers just try to pussyfoot around from advancing Poppy's lore in Demacia that they just put her right dab in the middle of the Bandlewoods hanging out with a bunch of random dudes doing nothing lore relate besides maybe bringing back Blomgrun back into her lore and introducing an younger sibling..

>>1458892
*Even the Mageseeker game they tried to make Sylas the Hero of Demacia by having Morgana bestow that on him, but good thing that game isn't considered canon, because that was just a dick move in trying to remove Poppy from Demacian lore

What are the Mageseekers exactly? Did something happen in Demacian history that made them fearful of mages? Are Demacians magically inept so they hate mages?

>>1458983
Demacia founders were refugees from the rune wars which were caused by super powerful mages using super powerful magical artifacts to be silly
Their whole country is built upon escaping from magic that's why they have the mageseekers

Kind if happy Support came back. Wouldn't mind if they went back to the Foundations era of mechanics. An Ephemeral champ would be nice to have in PotC

https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Zeffira
Also, when the refugees aka Orlon and his band plus Poppy built the first settlement in what will be known as the Capital of Ancient Demacia called Zeffira, Kayle and Morgana had a huge fight that destroyed it that resulted in Kayle killing her Dad in the process which she left afterwards, and Morgana went into hiding to feeling ashamed and wanting to be forgotten.

This left an expression on the people that magical beings can't be trusted and thus the Mageseekers were commissioned.

https://leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/Rune_Wars
Also, the reason why Ryze wants to seal away the Runes which he uses Demacia's petricite forest as a vault, he's trying to prevent another Rune War and to prevent people from being corrupted by it like what happened to Brand.

Note: Poppy probably met the Twin Sisters in the flesh and she most likely can end the Mageseeker vs Rebel Mages Civil War and bring back the Real Demacia Tradition as she was around when it was meant to be an ambitious new nation, where all were welcome, regardless of station or background, so long as they contributed to the good of the whole.

>TFW Riot treats Poppy like she's a Minor Character in the lore when she's actually a Major Character in it

>>1459123
Really you just have to look at the shitshow that is Shurima to justify the Mageseekers.

The more I read about Demacia, Petricite, and he Mageseekers the more I like. I know Demacia in LoR is supposed to be about weenies and buffing them but a Mageseeker spell that counters either abilities or spells would be fun. The LoL mmo better have them as a faction or class I could join. There's also the fact there are literal shit logs of Petricite from imprisoned mages makes it funnier

Actually, now that I think about it, if they keep releasing new-old champs like Lux do you think there'll be region switching? Like if Jarro was a champ instead of a follower, EZ would be in both Demacia and P&Z.

>>1459266
It's odd that there are no mageseeker champions, they're all normalfag knights or some form of mage themselves.

>>1459283
Hey, you're on to something there, champs having alternate versions that are in a different region with new keywords/effects/abilities could be interesting for example Noxus Poppy will be a Bandle/Noxus champ with a different keyword/effects/abilities from her Bandle/Demacia version, because Noxus Poppy is supposed to be an alternate universe where she joined Noxus instead of Demacia.

Don't other cards games already do that? I think Senna count as she has a Demacia and a Shadow Isles versions of herself.

>>1459288
There's gotta be some. From the top of my head I snow variants (particularly Swain), tons have Hextech versions (would be stuck in P&Z though), and hell even if we're not restricting to skin lines you can always just go with their past adventures, most of them are pretty well traveled.
Again, assuming they keep adding champs.

Who the fuck is Jarro

Is Lillia the worst champ in the game? My Lillia decks get better when I remove her from them. She's just a 3 mana 3/2 really, Sleep isn't that impactful.

Vex is by far the most fun champ of the 3
The funny stuff you can make with enfeebeling strike to become a better ashe is so fucking funny
Her not having a line for Nocturne entering is lame though

LoR started as a PvP game and always will be a PvP game. Path of Champions is a minigame added halfway through the games lifespan. If you don't PvP, that means you didn't play the beta and aren't a true LoR fan, just a poser.

Did they really not post card changes? I remember thinking Brightsteel Protector was still 2/1 (saw it as 3/2), and now I just saw that Inspiring Light is grant all allies spirit (instead of +1/+1).

>>1460707

At bare minimum Inspiring Light was updated to be "Grant allies Spirit" instead of "Grant allies +1/+1".

>>1460806
it's the only change of the sort I noticed too

>>1460808
Yeah I saw Brightsteel as a 3/2, thought it was weird but didn't think much of it, it's entirely possible I was mistaken, but when I saw the Inspiring Light change too I thought there must've been a hidden balance patch.

What a shame what they did with this game, a betrayal of the community, just because it wasnt the gold mine that tft and lol are with their shitty skins.

I was season after season in masters.

They abandoned the community that is why I dont play anymore.

Shoutout to the guys staying on purpose in low diamond with your shitty meme decks you are (were) the MVPs of this once great game.

>>1461224
>just because it wasnt the gold mine
It made no profit at all. There was not a single time in its history where it made money, in many cases it was multiple times in the red. It was so non-profitable that some attempts at monetizing actually cost more to make than it made back. If it didn't have riot backing it would've been shut down years ago.

>>1461043
nah, she was carried by fizz and shelly and only existed as a cheap spell generator for them
rito broke her legs because apparently fizz must never be nerfed and any other card will take the fall for him
same happened to TF

boy I sure love another meta of elder dragon decks, what a great champion with such an interesting origin that isn't broken at all and for sure doesn't make the game worse just by existing
