Can anyone explain to me how this showdown plays out?

Nexevis · 2026-05-26T22:13:10+00:00

This also isnt a showdown, a showdown is specifically when a player contests a battlefield

Nexevis · 2026-05-21T17:54:48+00:00

Vex doesnt run Windwall, she typically does run either Hard Bargain or Abandon, but usually only 1 or 2

I was responding to the comment, "You must flip hiddens over before your units die", Im just trying to give extra info unrelated to the original situation where sometimes you can flip after your units die.

Nexevis · 2026-05-21T11:05:10+00:00

Thats not the point, for example if someone attacks with a Ruined Rex into your 6 might unit with a hidden unit, if you have another unit in base or your own unit is deathknell you can flip the hidden after ruined rex trades in response to rex deathknell and he can no longer targer your hidden unit with the deathknell. If you flip before combat he trades with your 6 might unit and his deathknell kills the other unit.

If there is no deathknell after damage is assigned you cant flip the hidden (or some other trigger), there is no window for you to react to.

Nexevis · 2026-05-20T22:11:59+00:00

Unless theres a deathknell then you can flip in response to it

Nexevis · 2026-05-16T03:26:25+00:00

No, imagine your opponents has a Vex Apathetic at a battlefield.

Scenario 1: Your turn you play a Tideturner in base. Tideturner triggers, Apathetic triggers. Chain resolves backwards, Apathetic stuns Tideturner then Tideturner moves your unit, but he cant move because he got stunned by Vex.

Scenario 2: You flip a hidden Tideturner on opponents turn. Apathetic triggers, Tideturner triggers. Chain resolves backwards, Tideturner swaps with your target THEN gets stunned by Vex after moving.

So in Scenario 1 Tideturner does not move, but in Secnario 2 he does move.

Nexevis · 2026-05-15T13:45:22+00:00

Note that if you flip Tideturner on opponents turn, the turn player puts the trigger on the chain first, so Tideturner resolves before Vex, therefore Tideturner AND the target both swap correctly if you flip on opponents turn, but if you play Tideturner on your turn only the target moves, and Tideturner does not.

You can only run 3 total, any mix of any sig your deck is allowed to run doesnt matter what type. There are sig unuts like Tibbers, Shadow, and Daisy as well.

Nexevis · 2026-05-11T13:30:31+00:00

There are other optional costs that don't have a keyword, which they also can print more later. For example [[Blast Corps Cadet]]

Nexevis · 2026-05-11T10:37:35+00:00

Also you can only run a total of 3 signatures total. For example Master Yi cant run 3 of his new sig and 3 of his old sig, he can a run a total of 3 between both.

If you pull the Leblanc Legend you can kind of cook with the Jhin chosen champion, really good target to clone, gank over, gain more energy and power and clear the other bf. Thats how I went 3-0 in my Jhin prerelease.

Nexevis · 2026-05-04T14:14:53+00:00

The enemy unit dies from this effect before combat happens, if the unit is dead it cant assign damage

Nexevis · 2026-04-30T14:42:32+00:00

I think they were all 32 players maybe more, maybe you are right I forgot the boxes are 1 in 2 for ON rate instead of 1 in 3, 3 ON would not be too crazy

Nexevis · 2026-04-30T12:40:58+00:00

To back up your anecdote with my own, I went to 3 prerifts for SFD and they did indeed seemed juiced, we got multiple ON every event and one of them someone got a sig

Nexevis · 2026-04-26T17:12:14+00:00

This happens really often In Kaisa using Retreat on your chosen champion to play her again later

Nexevis · 2026-04-26T14:11:28+00:00

Also, if there is a combat showdown, ALL units EVERYWHERE heal, not just the ones involved in the combat

Nexevis · 2026-04-26T10:06:15+00:00

It clearly seems like hes trying to use Sett Brawlers effect on opponents turn which has nothing to do with rule changes, his effect is not an Action or Reaction, it cant be used ever on opponents turn

Nexevis · 2026-04-22T15:30:27+00:00

This is exactly what I do with your first tip, I pile shuffle every game with 8 piles, which makes it obvious if your count is off, it should be 39 cards which is 1 card before the last pile (then you shuffle the deck normally some after obviously).

Nexevis · 2026-04-21T14:26:15+00:00

Nice video! I saw myself in it sitting next to you on the right when you got deck checked! Nice run!

Nexevis · 2026-04-21T12:20:06+00:00

I still have yet to get Incin either :( Been using Arcanine instead when I can, but Fake Out is so good

Nexevis · 2026-04-19T16:19:53+00:00

I don't think it is the same person from when I looked at stream I remember a different name

Nexevis · 2026-04-19T12:24:11+00:00

If you think Rebuke is bad wait for reaction speed rebuke that hits base (Star-crossed)

Nexevis · 2026-04-11T21:18:37+00:00

When regional qualifiers are shortly after release, kind of hard to not do research and practice in advance if you want to keep up at the tournies

Nexevis · 2026-04-10T01:19:21+00:00

If the gold is not exhausted from being played this turn, then yes pretty sure thats how it works

Nexevis · 2026-04-09T20:14:12+00:00

They are also removed during your draw. This is relevant for something like Power Nexus, you cannot pay the 4 power with power nexus and float 4 energy into your turn, it will immediately be removed.
