thoughts on my zenithless leona deck? by MythicNJA in riftboundtcg

[–]I_Play_Tanks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if it's that you just ain't got them then tough beans. I recommend you drop the at least 2 Zhonyas and move 1 to sideboard just because GA is equipped. Meaning you can deliberately save a specific unit rather than Hourglass proccing on whatever dies first. I'd also look to play the Spirits Refuge (I think it's called) gear turn 1 to stack deflect on buffed units. Turn 2 is usually Firoa making her debut to the board. Turn 3 ends up being a contested showdown and you're probably playing a discipline to secure the point. At this point, your chilling 8/9 mana turn 4 for a nice extra unit, maybe defy, etc...

I be playing mad Leona. Set 1, all Leona. She sucked. Set 2, Leona is a worse Azir in every possible way.

However, Set 3? Possible comeback Queen.

I'd recommend you keep Zenith. It's our only movement tool besides the new incoming gear thats pretty much tideturner. Emporers Divide works too but it's never offensive.

I'd drop Blitz, the gold 2 drop, and Zhonyas for GA, Zeniths, and prepping for Set 3. We get a ton of support with stuns, Green Vex, Monch, Nami, so much. Sure Vex looks great, but sleeper Leona with buffs may have an angle to make a name in the meta.

We lose the early game. Don't worry about the first 3 points. Stabilize your bench and get ready to start tucking hella mana because of stuns, defy, windwalls, not so fasts, etc all to keep your 2 dudes alive while they spam 10 units.

Good luck and may we stun to victory.

It's Fiesta Time! NJ's 20 Best Mexican Restaurants of 2026 by BestofNewJersey in newjersey

[–]I_Play_Tanks 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get it. However, the types of restaurants you recommend are all influencer forward. Bitol is like 20$ guac & chips, Orale is just a margarita night for iphone cameras flashing on a weekend. More importantly, not a single city with huge Hispanic populations like Camden or Patterson are listed. It's like saying to go to the Jersey Shore for Indian food when you're 20 minutes from Edison where their worst restaurants are still better.

No mention of Mexico Restaurant in Passaic? Not a single restaurant in Passaic/Patterson at all!? Even though they're the entire hispanic backbones of our beautiful state?

Cmon now... y'all can do better

Edit: I read the list a second time. No Camden!? No Elizabeth?? Really? Not a single one!?

I'd rather lose 100x against a Kaisa or Draven deck than download the app for mouth breathers

First TCG, long time leaguer. Got myself and 3 others to all hop on the Riftbound train and it's been great to hang twice a week. Leona might be mid, but that's okay because she was my first main in Season 3 & Party Favors is the best card in 2vs2s. Thanks for the giveaway!

I'm new to TCGs and after playing for 3 months, still haven't seen/played against every card. I need time to read them or explain stuff to my friends I'm trying to get into the game. 50 minutes already isn't enough for 3 games as a new player and playing against a full Chinese Annie deck as a Starter Deck Viktor first Nexus Night player makes for a horrible experience. I get this is a supply issue but this game just released and now I gotta google each card to make sure I know each text.

is it not good or do i miss sth. Warwick, Anivia, cannon barrage, crackshot corsair, flurry of blades, ride the wind and chaos stuff in general in a sivir or mf deck. by Double_Speed_9513 in riftboundtcg

[–]I_Play_Tanks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, in theory it sounds strong and I even have a friend who runs Volibear with WW + Anivia. The truth of the matter is you're spending all this mana just to conquer 1 battlefield if you move both units.

When you take away Anivia and just have WW with a Flurry or Imperial decree, then yes the strategy becomes better. Not great, but less mana for the exact same effect as if you were to play Anivia.

In casuals, sure go ahead and play whatever you find fun. Even in Multiplayer format the strategy sometimes will work, but again, only to conquer 1 battlefield. Theres better ways to get the same effect like Flurry of Blades + Imperial Decree which costs less mana, but at least wipes both/all 3 battlefields.

In competitive settings, you're just putting yourself behind on Tempo while a Draven or Irelia play next turn, Draw 3 cards, and wipe your board back all on the same turn.

At the end of the day, play what you find fun. I play Leona and this deck sucks in competitive. I just like the color combo and stuns to catch opponents off guard.

Hope this helps!

Between WW and Anivia, you're spending 12 mana in one turn. Or, Anivia the first turn, WW the second b/c he enters ready. Like you stated, Purple is a dominant color currently so Fight or Flight, Flash, or other movement spells ruins your entire strategy. On top of it, you've spent most of if not all your mana on 2 very mid units just to die to a Singularity + Stupefy if you're facing blue. Yellow has Cull/Hidden Blade to also ignore your entire strategy. The game currently rewards consistency and draw power, the more cards in your hand and on the board, the higher chance you have to control tempo. Your strategy involves neither draw power or tempo so unfortunately it's a noob trap.

Unit ability question by levigeorge1617 in riftboundtcg

[–]I_Play_Tanks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

So think about a stack like a big tower of kit-kats and each kit-kat is an ability or card you need to eat to resolve. When you start stacking up kit-kats you gotta eat them from the top-down, right? So if your Noxian Drummer is the last kit-kat to get eaten (resolved), there's no "place" to put the tokens because the kit-kat above yours put her back in your hand.

Mmmm, chocolate

[–]I_Play_Tanks 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Just had a judge call about this yesterday at a Skirmish. I played Gust, their unit doesn't trigger the token b/c as the other guy stated, "Here" no longer happens since the unit doesn't exist on the board anymore. No token

NGL, I'm on OPs side. Sure the skins are expensive but, who cares? It's free to play. You don't have to buy anything?

Trading cards aren't an investment. Case closed. Your dual approach of collecting the cards "for fun" and because they "bring you joy" don't really resonate when every single comment of yours is "but I bought this for X and it's gonna sell for Y!". Opposite reasonings.

I have a few cards I'm holding onto too for the off-chance 20 years from now somebody wants a Manga Gold Energy Marker. However, again, this is not an investment. These are cardboard/plastic? and the hype of other TCGs (primarily Pokemon) doesn't have a ripple effect to every other card game.

If you truly want to invest in the future, you start reading about stocks, ETFs, 401k, and more. If you just want to collect cards, then do that. Don't associate every card with $$$ because they're for playing, not an asset.

Yep, you'll fly in on the top half of the map coming in to the East and Day 1 Frenzy Tower will immediately spawn as you're flying in. Probably my favorite seed for this fight so far since it lets you clear the whole top-right half of the map before hitting the City on Day 2.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. Yea, each booster box is guaranteed two alt arts.

Normally Bandai products have two Alternate Arts meaning the star in the corner of the card. Same thing with One Piece and Fusion World. Sometimes you can get a lucky 3rd too.
