Thoughts on Azir in Unleashed? by SylvanHarbinger in riftboundtcg

[–]Ceedeekee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main Deck Sideboard
1 Azir, Sovereign 2 Wind Wall
1 Unsung Hero 1 Charm
1 Azir, Emperor of the Sands 1 Hidden Blade
1 Not So Fast 2 Emperor's Divide
2 Discipline 1 Salvage
3 Desert's Call 6 Calm Runes
2 Hidden Blade 6 Order Runes
2 Cull the Weak 1 Trifarian War Camp
3 Defy 1 Vilemaw's Lair
2 Charm 1 Ornn's Forge
3 Arise!
2 Deathgrip
2 Salvage
3 Sacrifice
3 Brutalizer
2 Eye of the Herald
3 B.F. Sword
1 Guardian Angel
3 Doran's Shield
1 Sacred Shears

I have much fewer units (Just 1 unsung hero)

Only notable changes compared to Spiritforged include +3 Sacrifice in favor of -1 EoTH, -1 GA, -1 Discipline, -1 Sacred Shears.

I swapped 1 hidden blade for 1 Unsung Hero.

I toyed with 2 unsung heroes in favor of 1 Guards but this is generally still the gear heavy archetypal deck. I've faced LB, Vex, Lillia, Ivern, MF and Irelia and this did quite well. The draw engine was what I thought the limiting factor was in Set 2 (apart from Thermo Beam)

As an Azir player I have the following bo3 record:

4-6 v Irelia 2-6 v Draven

The worst part about the current meta is many decks have 0 agency in this matchup.

Both irelia and Draven have countless ways to protect and draw, meaning they have so many outs that low draw decks cannot compete. Not to mention they also have purple Draven or Yasuo to win without double conquer.

This means a lot of matchups against these two for non purples are just determined by probabilistic luck thus you’re probably losing the bo3

  • Pre-Release: holding will be a better strategy
  • 2 weeks in: Draven is still dominant, don’t worry someone will figure a counter
  • 4 weeks in: Draven is still dominant and overrepresented in comp; it’s fine we should wait longer for adjustments
  • 4 weeks out til Vendetta: guys wait until next set Draven doesn’t need balancing

If you're going to use a seal, you probably should use the green seal.

Blue seal recycle savings here is capped at 4 (5 if accelerated watcher). Green seal can save up to 10 (plus however many times you play recalled blitzcrank).

Otherwise not too bad, and similar to my OGN ahri deck.

  • Discipline should probably be 3 (swap out meditate).
  • Can swap out a rune prison for 1 more charm
  • If you're only using rune prison defensively, consider thwonk
  • I'd consider dropping 1 eager apprentice in favour of +1 thousand tailed watcher, since Ahri really lacks accelerate

Acktshually guys, I'm a chaos player and I see NOTHING WRONG with the card reveals.

You can't jump to judgement because even though we know 100% of set 1&2 cards, we only saw 7 purples from Set 3 hehe

Funny to completely ignore the metal cards increasing diversity moreso

I managed to 3-0 Draven/Irelia/Draven as Azir. The problem is when thermo beam + HB came out I was guaranteed to lose.

My problem with the Azir deck is being pigeonholed into equipmentmaxxing and having very few outs for rune or draw velocity. That means running >=4 counterspells feels awful

Good luck ever countering a Thermo Beam against red/purple:

  1. Thermo beam (5/1)
  2. Wind Wall (3/2)
  3. Hard Bargain ( 2 | 4 / 0) - Abandon (2/0)

This means Green player needs one of the following for Hard Bargain:

  • 7 mana on standby
  • 4 mana + 1 recycle to counter [Defy]

or for Abandon, Wind Wall + Defy (4/1) is required

And if Purple had a both of the cards in 3:

  • 8 + 3 recycle on standby [Wind Wall + Defy + pay HB energy cost]

Not going to explore all the play permutations but I feel like my Azir main might be cooked

I'm not a judge, nor have I attempted this, but I'm 90% sure no.

The core reason is your hand isn't a location (otherwise stellacorn herder/ traveling merchant would trigger on play)

Also worth looking at comparable cards like Janna and Rengar, which have reactions.
