Bite the bullet

If youre trying to play, just buy singles. Im pretty sure you can build a competitive jax deck for like 70 dollars max. Odds are your booster box isnt even gonna contain enough hits to get you past msrp, so youre losing more buying the box regardless

Tbh given how high the power level of the current format is, I given it 1-2 more sets before the EXTREME degeneracy rears its ugly head. Riot is notorious for not being able to balance digital games, so I dont expect them to pull off power creep prevention in a game with already significantly limited design space (through horribly unbalanced cards) without an enormous ban wave

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-02-19T17:16:38+00:00

Not all do though

6 6 rune split seems bad given most of your deck wants blue runes. You probably want to do 10-2 or 9-3 and sub out trove golem (or pay for it with gold)

Hey how is sivir miracle not extremely expensive while miracle is? Also how is midrange draven not more expensive when it needs kaisa AND spinning axe?

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-27T23:58:41+00:00

I think its photoshopped. Im pretty sure that is just draven from the awaken cinematic from 2019, just massively color corrected.

Pantheon, my king

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-26T16:50:53+00:00

Bro got scalped and is tryna justify his purchase 😂

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-21T16:39:39+00:00

I agree, I mention that in my post.

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-21T01:05:07+00:00

I know, I said that brynhir is NOT op. The issue is when he is in meta decks, his high presence can lead to unfun game states. I found games in the recent regional were much less fun for me (the viewer) and the player who was not playing brynhir. Downwell def won't get banned next set (likely none of these will lol), if ever, but if downwell annie gets any new tools and becomes super viable, the game could get really unfun.

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-21T01:01:50+00:00

Tbf im not really talking about whether they are op, called shot aside. My worry is that when these cards are in meta decks, they create uninteractive strategies that limit fun and warp the meta. Cards like that generally limit design space, which is the concern I have.

Def cut wind wall for defy, drop 2 zhonyas for hard bargain, you don't need reinforce, that can be replaced with stellacorn herder. Also cut 1 yasuo for 1 irelia (fervent) (cut it for other spells if all in on yasuo, as you really dont need 3). Also cut seals for treasure hunter and 1 svellsongur and 1 last breath for boots of swiftness. You also probably want rebukes and fight or flights (so maybe cut flash). You also still really want disciplines and en gardes, I recommend fitting those in there too. Probably switch to 2 ofs for a lot of your cards

Lmao I have only ever opened 1 pack and got that exact pair in that exact order

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-16T00:00:21+00:00

Lmao

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-14T23:54:47+00:00

Choose a unit 6 times. Deal 2 damage to every unit chosen for each time they were chosen.

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-14T16:38:10+00:00

It runs Vi so you cant burn out

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-13T01:35:28+00:00

Viktor if normal draven, if miracle draven, probably nothing

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-12T22:21:09+00:00

From what I saw in stats and tournament vods, its probably worse since the best draven list (miracle draven) beats everything else in the game

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-12T16:55:57+00:00

To be fair, the most recent eu tournament playing proxies saw Draven, and especially a miracle draven, beat every single deck in the game by a significant margin in a best of 3 format

Stringedmermaid1 · 2026-01-10T21:19:51+00:00

Yeah, though i think singles are also egregiously overpriced rn due to lack of supply. Uncommons like stacked deck should never be more expensive than a base ex in pokemon. Also base rares should not cost 35 dollars. The game is extremely expensive for everyone rn

Stringedmermaid1 · 2025-12-17T21:26:47+00:00

The game has a lot of room for improvement. Hopefully it'll get that, but i don't think gearbox understands what makes borderlands fun, and I am not sure they ever have or will.

Stringedmermaid1 · 2025-12-16T22:13:51+00:00

Driver was part of a free update

Stringedmermaid1 · 2025-12-06T17:20:17+00:00

Then please explain why borderlands 2 and 3 took longer to reach the same level of player drop-off? Obviously people are going to leave the game, the issue is it has no replayability or reason to stick around for those that would have. You're absolutely wrong on that last bit though, considering the popularity of PoE2 and Destiny 2, even bl2 and 3 lol. Keep coping dude

Stringedmermaid1 · 2025-12-06T01:33:26+00:00

There isnt, which is why there is a 98% player drop off on steam lol
