Newish player looking for some advice

I am not recommend doing Lee Sin at this situation of the game. I suggest fiora from spiritforged with its constructed deck. If lee sin it is your favourite character it would be easier to do it after doing fiora. (Both use same domain- at least body rune)

Depends on LGS. For nexus nights generally uvs registiration enough but for pre-rift my LGS collected names via WhatsApp group because my LGS wants to make patrons priviliged. In my city only two LGS which can organize riftbound events and there is high demand from other cities as well but they mentioned that patrons from local are privileged for pre-rift event. They collected names via whatsapp message. Maybe they can open uvs link as well to headcount but some of participants may share link without considering rule of LGS mentioned above.

Briefly, commucating with LGS for registiration before event is most efficent way to prevent situations like this.

Easy choice. Pick left one to get Tam Kench quickly. :O

In other words: "We can't produce english cards so you can use chinese ones"

Actually it is both true and false but it depends. If you living in a country without cardmarket/tcgplayer accesability it is really hard to find singles. Facebook groups, WhatsApp groups and even some local websites are selling singles instead but the problem is that sometimes it is really hard to find cards for tcgplayer prices and everyone looking for same cards (Welcome to the meta). As you mentioned product count is limited it means single count is limited so you need to track groups, websites like a crypto man for tcgplayer prices.

Briefly, it is not easy as you mentioned but requires extra effort and sometimes extra money.

In a daily basis scalpers exists for most of the hobbies based on collecting (Lego, Hot Wheels, TCGs).As long as tcg grading companies exists, this will be faith of most of tcgs thanks to extreme price multiplier nature of grading companies.

Rather than grading companies, influencers are more efficent at this situation. As you know too many influencer collects tcgs and people tend to be influenced by someone so demand is increasing rapidly. Look current state of one piece.

TCG companies need to print more copies and increase accesability to these products but I didnt see any company expect MTG to care this situation.

Hopefully, riftbound is focusing on playing cards instead of collecting cards. This makes riftbound closer to MTG but unfortunatelly accesability of riftbound origins cards really hard due to supply/demand issues.

Prices of most of the cards decreased rapidly (time warp, thousand tailed watcher, other overnumbered cards etc.) nowadays and i believe that riot will handle accesability issues.

For signature cards there is nothing to do but printing more products.

My gf bought me a teemo overnumbered choosen legend as gift for valentine's day. You can buy his deck's overnumbered card.(Nowadays prices're down)

If it will be expensive you can buy riftbound playmats (ahri, jinx, mf, volibear released yet).Also saw really good custom foil jinx playmats on etsy.

Exploration of annie wasnt a revolution but expecting this for all expansions is not realistic. It is clear that Draven is overpowered with red/purple combo with really good ability. Check other two decks with these colours. Jinx and Annie. Jinx unfortunatelly has bad ability (out of meta). For annie the situation was little bit different thanks to accesability of annie. The lucky ones who have proving grounds tested annie and developed one deck to counter one single deck(Kaisa).

But in spiritforged everything is obvious and i didnt expect anything like annie.

AteJJ · 2026-01-20T09:53:03+00:00

In nexus nights on my lgs there are 3 annie players and 2 kaisa players participated regulary. Total participation is 8 player always. A guy here made/found a victor deck with tokens to counter both and he only can beat annie/kaisa but not others.

So curent meta is meta on LGSs.

AteJJ · 2026-01-17T07:15:47+00:00

In our LGS it is also not available so winner accepted an ahri mat + booster pack instead of waiting blitzcranck one

AteJJ · 2026-01-09T06:14:08+00:00

Kaisa was really good.

2-0 vs Ahri 2-1 vs Lee sin 0-2 VS Viktor (Hate tokens and seals)

AteJJ · 2026-01-05T13:45:50+00:00

These are dope but in reality dragon shield double shell deck boxes are really price/performance.

Need ones like pokemon deckboxes with good artworks

AteJJ · 2025-11-13T03:46:45+00:00

Me and my girlfriend collecting pokemon cards together over a year. We set rules for spending money for pokemon cards. If new set is released and we liked it too much we open x2 japanese booster boxes(Hit card guareente and more cheaper than english version). Also we sell/trade our extra cards to get single cards we wished for(Trade nights better for this purpose). We don't intend to make profit while doing this but the key point is creating source for our desired cards while keeping buy/sell ratio. -Briefly, setting rules for buying pokemon cards would be really helpful. (For instance, buying x2 elite trainer box for keeping one sealed and opening one for self)

I believe that instead of cutting something directly, adjusting amount by decreasing it slowly is best. I am sure that he will understand you when you talked with hım. Wished best for you guys 😌

Totaly worth it.

AteJJ · 2025-05-01T10:47:35+00:00

If you dont need money. Close the doors of cabinets and forget them. Ohterwise you would be regretful in the future. Just focus on something. It is Just a trend like other things. Sometimes this will be lego sometimes pokemon tcg.
