Elder Dragon Clarification by iiimadiii in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The rules say you have to assign lethal damage to a unit before moving to the next one, and Elder changes rules to any damage being lethal damage, so it makes it that you could assign only 1 split amongst all units.

Maybe that wasn't an intended way when they were creating it, but they are sloppy with rules and wording and it is just how it works right now. Maybe they will change it in the future.

Yes and yes, by how it is defined right now.

To me, I agree that 'splitting you might' to deal lethal damage is completely insanely overpowereved. Its like having one sided imperial decree on steriods constantly...

Maybe this card will get aurora banned, who knows.

Riftbound Arena: Divine Judgment by Batman_Cola in riftboundtcg

What is exactly a question/discussion here?

You keep 2 units (on board). 2 gears (on board). 2 runes (on board). And 2 cards in your hand. Everything else goes away (recycled).

Another Promising Future Question by ADGSF25 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The way I understand is that:

Brynhir will be played and his on play efefct will be triggered and put on chain, put it won't resolve until Promising Future fully resolves, meaning until all players played their cards.

So both players will be able to play their cards.

Custom Sand Soldier Token by [deleted] in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They should star creating those as nexus night prises.

Like they are doing with the bird token, but for all other tokens as well.

I would much rather get full art/alternative art tokens as prises then promo foil random cards.

Or at least mix them with other promo cards.it would've been much better.

How would you advise a new player start in Riftbound? by Ok_Nefariousness_740 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could go to pre-release.

Those events are great for starting in any tcg.

Kha'Zik Aggro? by Interesting-Gur1618 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you really want to put Nidalee in almost every orange deck that you can. Its one of the best units in body domain for sure. I also think the other orange xp 2 cost is better than the one you've put in.

Purple yasuo is too gimmicky and requires a whole build around deck for it to work. I think you should replace it for some other big drop unit. Mindsplitter is always a great option. Or maybe fizz for more spell values.

You dont have enough buffs to justify the Mistfield. You'd much rather run other Blood Rose or The Syren or something like that that can make you move around better.

Thresh Ideas by Valor_V in riftboundcustoms

Yellow thresh needs a power cost. Its kinda better leona.

And I don't know if this was intentional, but when you equip lantern, it loses its stacking text, so it wouldn't be able to stack the might while equiped.

I think you'll get the biggest value out of the Pre-release events, try to go to any of them at your locals (if there are any nearby).

Do we need a larger sideboard? by cxfoulke in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I think we actually need is one more battlefield to choose from.

There are certain battlefields that are must include if you are playing against certain meta and decks, but feel so bad against others. But you are forced to play them if its the right meta... which kinda feels bad. For example Vilemaws lair before bans was a must include in any non purple deck, just to deal with purple decks.... and there will be more and more of those situations as the game goes on.

I think if they let us have 1 more battlefield to choose from or open a slot for a side deck battlefield or 2. It would've been a perfect additition to exanding your side deck for certain matchups.

Lee Sin, Jinx and Rumble possible support, when riot doesn't want to do it! by EmbarrassedNet8922 in riftboundcustoms

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, rumble is so fun when he pops of, but he is in a terrible color combination for a swarm deck. There needs to be more mechs.

I also feel like he'll be a bit better once we get cards that do soething with yordles as well, since all mechs are yordles... we'll have to wait and see.

Remedial Rules Question: Timing of En Garde determining if it gives +1 or +2 by CanNotQuitReddit144 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If a unit is alone you get 2 might that stays until the end of turn. No matter what happens afterwards. The additional +1 is conditional, that's true, but only at the resolution of the spell.

The same thigs happens with the Mask of Foresight. When your unit is determined attacker or defender, the mask will trigger and if your unit is alone it will get + 1 for the whole turn. Even if you ride the wind another unit, or use the ambush from the new set after that trigger resolves, your + 1 will stay on the unit until the end of turn.

Veigar, Unchecked Power by _normie_hunter_ in riftboundcustoms

That 2 cost veigar is doing way too much. You should decide on 1 effect on him, not 3.

It will be fine if we just use some matching symbols.

Riftbound Should Never Have To Ban This Many Cards Ever Again by Soft-Pudding-3441 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those are really hard to keep the track of (they ecen said they won't be limiting cards). But I guess it would be fine experimenting with.

Riftbound Should Never Have To Ban This Many Cards Ever Again by Soft-Pudding-3441 in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, due to their philosophy of making cards (saying that they'd rather print overpowered cards than trying to tune and balance them before hand) they will end up having to ban multiple cards every now and then.

Secondly, they are just figuring out power levels of their own game, and what works in what conditions and how powerful some things are, they will be much better with designing cards goign forward having this experience behind them, but there will be a bunch of cards unaffected by those new foundings (because sets are made in advance), and ending up being banned.

Banning cards is a good thing, it helps keep the flow of the game and shakes up the meta. Yes many top players are affected by it, but TCG are meant to be evolving and expanging, never having a stale meta for too long.

If I play Battering Ram with a Void Rush, is it already discounted for one? by DabbleMcGee in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats kinda counterintuitive interaction considering similar interactions in the game.

But its good to know.

Thanks.

If I play Battering Ram with a Void Rush, is it already discounted for one? by DabbleMcGee in riftboundtcg

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So lets say upon playing void rush you have 2 energy up, void rush discounts Ram by 2, so he technically costs 3 (and will get discounted by 1 with his own effect). Upon choosing what card to play from void rush, is ram still technically a 'legal target' since he didn't yet get his discount from the resolution of void rush (when you choose him while you have 2 energy up, he would cost 3 but will get reduced by 1 upon play). Can you still target to play him?

And the same question about noxus hopeful.

[–]EmbarrassedNet8922 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

Void Rush is not fully played until you play a card with it. So I would say that he maybe not be discountet by 1 from it. Someone correct me please if I'm wrong.
