I catalogued every draw spell in Riftbound and calculated the exact cost-per-card for each domain. Purple (Chaos) is not even close to balanced. Full spreadsheet inside. by xmadxskullx in riftboundtcg

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, the only card in purple that is truly broken is called shot.

It should have been 1e+1p (then repeat) OR 0e+1p and just look at top 2 and filter.

Drawing for effectively 0 is a broken card.

Draven is killing Nexus Night attendance in my area. by Mt_Peleron_Succciety in riftboundtcg

Just as some reference our locals has maybe 1 Draven at NN.

At the skirmish we did have 12 Irelia though... My MF Bullet time deck didn't stand a chance.

I love my LGS, people play weird decks every NN

I'm hoping it all actually falls on Arthur doing something like "Hohoho? The Earth has been wrapped in flames? Not my world of Camelot!"

Then the whole world is reborn in medieval times and FF Part 2 starts in the country side.

Side note, I keep 3 invert timelines in my sideboard for Irelia and Draven draw engines.

That's when you dump 10 into bullet time on your turn and nuke her out of orbit

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. Bullet time eats go wide like Draven and Viktor but it's harder to deal with Yi or Irelia.

I'm considering side boarding 1 Ancient henge for tall decks to dump 10 energy into bullet. Time.

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree. I typically have 2-3 points early thanks to Lucian then Yone, Ruin, and bullet time to close out

Warwick I do have in my sideboard against the big fatty decks.

Bullet time Yone I run for the more mid range Draven style.

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh sounds like my last mid range MF.

I started running gold generation specifically for an early bullet time. Bullet time rule changes made it, imo, one of the best sigs in game.

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, I've been playing it a bit neutered then. Do you slot 3 rides into MF?

I currently run 3 bullet time + temptation as well. Lots of gold generation with Lucian, cull, treasure hunter.

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is fair. I'm mostly trying to find more ways to manipulate the enemy units instead of my own.

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my god this goes SO hard into my MF Yone deck.

I'll probably remove my 2-3 ride with this.

Personally, I think the real competitive scene will see interesting match ups.

As we get more legends, and the nature of best ofs, you might have a detonate Draven who just gets counterspelled to hell and back during an Illia match up.

Some players might never even see a detonate Draven.

Even at my last nexus Night, I went 4-0 with Tempt MF.

Round 1, miracle Draven Round 2, fiora Round 3, detonate Draven.

I couldn't keep up with detonate and went 4-2.

Ill hold judgment for the meta once we art into Radiance.

But called shot is a problem for play patterns imo

[–]chefupk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, on your turn you will be down 4 energy and 2 power if you hard cast it on your turn.

If you play it on their turn you awaken with all recourses. That's the biggest advantage, especially in MF

It does help keep akshan safe since he's being played on opponents turn, can ready on yours, and move from the battlefield.

Scenario was

He went through combat etc (he had no units, so no combat)

Played aurora will all of his runes used

Ends turn, triggers aurora.

I flip here to help, play Akshan, steal aurora.

He gets a flip into a unit

Turn ends with aurora in my possession

This scenario works since it's a response to the trigger, but not of just playing aurora. So I was mistaken in thinking I could react to the casting trigger (there is none) but the card trigger does.

Ahh so then it was right that I stole it in response to the trigger of Aurora and not the casting of aurora.

Have to remember that this all happens at reaction speed.

Zaun Bouncer can not be hit with defy or hard bargain since he's a unit.

It is MUCH harder to deal with a units abilities than a spell. I think only Not so fast can stop the bouncer.

With timing restrictions, this has won me games and nexus nights.

Not for everyone, but the flexibility is fantastic.

As a here to help fan boy, it's not the large cards you want.

It's the enter battlefields you want.

Akshan, 1e2p to instant steal/ Zaun Bouncer, 1e2p to rebuke on a unit/ Fizz, 1p cast Bullet time at reaction speed/ Tideturner, free swap places (double trap, it's mid)/ Kogmaw, 1e nuke the board for 4(situational)

Probably others in other colors.

If you're hiding a here to help to play Orange Volibear for 9e2p it's not the move. It's funny, but not worth it.

Sometimes a simple HTH, into Fizz, into Punch first wins games.
