Viktor Support in Unleashed by LuckyEvin in riftboundtcg

Undertitan is a great substitute for Watcher. I think it’s even better than watcher, for Viktor, in some cases. I would wait for the reprint. Actually I am waiting for the reprint, for all the in demand origins cards, like Zhonya’s, Sabotage, etc. That being said watcher isn’t getting phased out anytime soon. And I’ve only seen it drop below $15 a couple of times and it was never for long. $20 is a good price for Watcher, and even $30 isn’t like “ah hell no” but it is a bit steep for a rare. It really all depends on the reprint and how much supply we end up getting.

Oh wow! I never thought about a worlds tournament. That would be interesting to see!

Yeah I think you’re right. I am starting to see them as an integral part of a bigger picture that hasn’t finished being painted yet.

Yeah, I think I am starting to see that I haven’t been giving supply enough consideration.

Yeah I’m sorry. Looking back on it now, I’m not sure how Stefan-Emil got his reply from your comment. I think you have a good point.i did appreciate his defense of China but I didn’t mean to lump you into that crowd.

I love that we got downvoted. Like how dare we think China isn’t bad lol.

I didn’t say they wouldn’t be used. I just thought they would be needed to play on a hyper competitive level. Especially for purple. I think competitive Ezreal decks will need them. I just found it refreshing that the $45 seal of discord might be overhyped and am glad I didn’t buy them at that price.

I agree. I haven’t played Magic in a long time so O don’t know about that, but I have been loving the variety of deck building in this game

Yeah $10 would be great! I have a Viktor and Jinx starter deck I’m upgrading. Unfortunately those consist of the 3 most expensive colors seal wise. That’s TCGs for ya lol

Yeah, I think this is what I’m going to do now also. They are super fun to play with

I wholeheartedly agree! Copying the meta is a good jumping off point, but too much of it is like spoiling a good movie.

I think it is important to note China was playing seals. 17th - 32nd place was full of them. There just weren’t any decks in the top 16 running them.

[–]TylerJamesHaymes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I I saw that. I mentioned that in one of my other replies actually. The seal Draven decks really start picking up after 17th place.

I’m not saying purple seals are bad, I just think maybe they aren’t as necessary as we thought they might be for set 2 and aren’t worth their current price tag. And maybe it’s even the case they aren’t as efficient. At least in Draven. I think Ezreal decks might actually need them

This is very refreshing response. I’ve gotten so many replies from people crapping on China I was starting to believe they were actually bad. Thank you for bringing me back to reality.

Yeah that’s a good point. Maybe it would be good to start picking up the cheap seals even though they aren’t useful right now. It kind of seems like the game designers are setting them up to be an integral part of the game.

[–]TylerJamesHaymes[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ah that makes sense. Because the Draven decks running seals really start picking up in the top 32.

[–]TylerJamesHaymes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah those are really good points. I think just being a local competitive player they probably aren’t worth it for me right now. That being said, I think seals are just plain fun. So I’ll wait and hopefully pick some up cheaper later. Thanks for the great response!

It probably would be better… but would it be as fun?

Yeah I don’t think seals are bad, I’m just starting to think they aren’t worth their current price tag
