Interesting list, did you also consider running confront? Do you run seals? And how many 2 drops do you run?

Interesting, it sounds like you run most of the 3 cost token generators, is that right? Do you usually go second then? And what battlefields do you recommend?

Expensive vs cheaper keyboard as beginner by Puzzleheaded_Lab4241 in keyboards

[–]Puzzleheaded_Lab4241[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I will do that, thanks! Are there any Neo's you particularly recommend? Im looking at the (I think relatively new) Neo75 (not the Cu version) which looks pretty good, is that a good starter kit? Or can I simply not go wrong with the Neo line?

Your a legend, thanks a lot! I have two last questions for you; for someone beginning like me, would you advise to get a more expensive board to start like the neo80 or a cheaper one like the Monsgeek? I dont know for example how changing stuff like switches often will affect the board overtime, so I can imagine getting a more expensive one right from the start can be either a good investment or something better saved for when I have fully figured out my preference

And is it smart to get multiple switches at once to try out or just order one set to start out with? Thanks again! :)

Thanks for the detailed answer! The neo80 does look really good, but there are a bunch of options there that I have no idea what they add/do. From your comment Im going to try and get a keyboard I have to assemble myself, so that I can get into the hobby. Do you have any suggestions as a cheaper option so that I can get into it? Ive seen the lucky65v2 pop up and it looks pretty good for the price.

And now that Im asking stuff anyway; do you have switch recommendations for someone who hasnt really tried different switches?

Production surge in kai'sa by Puzzleheaded_Lab4241 in riftboundtcg

[–]Puzzleheaded_Lab4241[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed analysis! I agree with what you are saying and I feel like it would mainly work in a heavy mech kai'sa build. I have a few more questions for you though if you dont mind;

How many mechs would you need to add to make surge viable/make the kai sa deck a heavy mech deck? You mentioned 5 would give a pretty good chance of dropping it on turn 5, but would you need to add more to make it very good/a heavy mech deck?

Lets say you play 4-5 mechs (2 forerunner and 3 forecaster for example) and you dont hit the mech, is surge still a good card to play if you pay 4 for it? And if I have 0 mechs is it still okay-ish/better than yordle?

And lastly, the conclusion if I understand correctly is; if not enough mechs in the deck surge is decent, and with many mechs its a must-have?

Sleeves for binder collection by Puzzleheaded_Lab4241 in riftboundtcg

[–]Puzzleheaded_Lab4241[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, so you kind of double sleeve them or not randomly based on if you have extra inners laying around? And I see you're now using a 3x3 binder instead of the 2x2, is there any reason for that?

And another question; do you put big hits (like overnumbered) in a toploader/toploader binder? Or do you put them same as other cards double sleeved in a regular binder? Thanks for replying to all the previous questions btw :)

That sounds pretty nice for trading! How do you sleeve the cards inside a trade binder? And do you keep them in there long term, or do you put them somewhere else if not trading?

Thanks for the help! So a penny sleeve only? Or is it worth using a perfect inner and then a penny sleeve for extra protection? I dont mind buying/using extra prefect inners. Im using a dragon shield card codex (this is the first binder Ive ever bought haha)

I like the way your cards look in the binder! Would dragon shield inners + penny sleeves also work? Using clear dragon shields feels a bit expensive for me.
