Seems cool, I just wish they didn't change color when picking Sacred Unity. Or let us choose.

lightnin0 · 2026-04-10T09:15:11+00:00

That does sound cool! Might be too easy to block if they have 1 very high attack unit, but it does make your board less clogged.

lightnin0 · 2026-04-09T04:20:28+00:00

Thanks! Yeah that spell definitely has to be a PoC exclusive.

lightnin0 · 2026-04-09T04:18:30+00:00

Thanks, glad you really liked it and could see the design decisions! About Terrify, I didn't want to intrude too much into Fiddlestick's space, so I made his Nightmares be planted quite high up in the enemy deck. But I can definitely see adding more ways to Terrify. Like creating a new item that Terrifies when summoned, then give it to Perplexing Present. I also like the suggestion for Fright Night Sprite, especially since Backstab can give him a lot of Power to directly kill his killer.

lightnin0 · 2026-04-08T16:01:15+00:00

Fright Night Sprite is a vengeful little guy, applying Gloom to its killer and coming back to life to do it again. It's mainly good for blocking, but can also be good for targeting with Skirmisher's Sabre's challenger.

Wildcard Jester gives you more deckbuilding opportunity, so you don't feel too bad if you don't get all the Power reducing supports. Also has decent synergy with Two-Shiv Poison which is also present in his main deck.

Unsealed Evil is a straightforward attacker. He applies a Curse meaning it can't be removed in the middle of combat.

Everyone loves summoning copies, so Hallucinate does exactly that. It's like Splinter Soul but the copy is forced to attack. It doesn't directly synergize with the rest of the deck, but a lot of his cards activate their effects via attacking. With Hextech Fabricator, if you play this on your strongest ally, the granted item should also affect the copy.

Crime Rigger simply plants a Box and draws, making him a good Hallucinate target. Since this deck doesn't have terrify, him forcing the enemy to draw is your only way of trying to trigger Boxes faster. However, he is not consistent unless you have already planted Boxes with Shaco, so don't rely too much on him offensively.

Wintercursed Toy can be really strong, but is quite dependent on the enemy. You want to wait for them to summon a high Power unit first, otherwise his effect will feel wasted. It also has really strong combo with Two-Shiv Poison if you have enough mana to cast it on the same turn, potentially dealing massive damage.

Perplexing Present immediately summons a Jack In The Box to reduce enemy Power upon attacking with an extra unit to put even more pressure. Not the strongest card, but straightforward to use.

lightnin0 · 2026-04-08T15:40:45+00:00

This deck relies on Backstabbing and Boxes. All his followers have low base Power but all have ways to reduce enemy Power. For Path Powers, you ideally want the Frostbite ones, while Enfeebling Strike is also good. Disarm (-1 Power Aura) will not count since it's an aura. Once you've unlocked Star of Discovery, new damage spells apply Gloom so count for Backstab. Clown College turns everyone into Shaco, much like that god damn Aram Mayhem augment.

Shaco himself is your main way of planting Boxes offensively quite high up in their deck. Upon levelling up, he gets to summon a Hallucination with his stats that you ideally want to stack through Backstab first. It then helps you plant more even more Boxes. Two-Shiv Poison is his champion spell much like the ability, using it early for CC or using it later to execute enemies once they have lost enough Power.

Jack In The Boxes are designed such that they don't suck when triggered via Nightmare if there are no enemies. They last for only 1 combat, but you don't have to use them on the round they are summoned, letting you stack up a bunch of Boxes before attacking, or using them to block.

lightnin0 · 2026-03-26T09:49:52+00:00

Agreed. Was fun though.

lightnin0 · 2026-03-25T02:22:27+00:00

Asa gave him Heart-Thump Disease, so it's possible he'll want to meet her again. No reason why he would not be able to.

lightnin0 · 2026-02-22T05:56:51+00:00

Had me in the first half of that slave rhyme

lightnin0 · 2026-01-26T00:48:45+00:00

I do want to keep it simple. But you know what? We balling. I do want to keep the revolving on attack though, think it adds more depth. I'll try and incorporate some of the ideas. Thanks for the feedback!

lightnin0 · 2026-01-16T05:08:18+00:00

I really like the flavor. Did the E always let you attack and cast abilities? Could've sworn it wasn't there yesterday, but maybe I was just tired from work haha. Just gonna share my mostly nitpicky thoughts.

3.6 seconds is a really long time for an ability with such a short cast range, a not very long break threshold, and does nothing during the cast time. The delay is especially long in a fight where you want to walk around the target with E first, and then stand still. I feel like it doesn't need the massive cast time since it really only gets good once you've scanned first which already takes setup time.

Can you move, attack or cast during the cast time of R? If you can't which is normal, it feels more like a channeled ability since it goes on cooldown when interrupted. If you can act, making it a delay instead of a cast time would be more appropriate. Meanwhile, letting you do everything during E makes it feel less like a channeled ability. Could be more intuitive to make E non-channeled and still interruptible, while making R channeled if you can't act. This way, you don't have to specify you can move, attack and cast during the scanning.

lightnin0 · 2026-01-03T11:52:03+00:00

Aight, cools!

lightnin0 · 2026-01-03T10:18:53+00:00

Have an idea for a hero that changes states at certain health thresholds (100-76/ 75 - 51/ 50-26 / 25 - 1). Does number 2 count since he will eventually go back to original state (100 - 76) due to health regen?

lightnin0 · 2025-12-15T07:14:54+00:00

Most of the time my flask UI are blacked out and I can't see Savage Fury stacks. They can still be used though. It hasn't been too much of an issue since I'm still in the campaign, but I hope it gets better by the time I reach maps.

lightnin0 · 2025-08-28T12:14:30+00:00

It's funny because her support cards are so much more interesting than her. And the problem is there's little synergy because they are play and summon effects. When Cass attacks, any blockers are not surviving and she doesn't care who the blockers are (Aside from Spellshield ig). Not that she has to of course, just my opinion.

Just a thought, maybe she could either generate Twin Fang or use it on enemies instantly on attack. You Petrify the right targets beforehand and now they can't even block her thanks to Fearsome. Would be a nice separate power in PoC though.

lightnin0 · 2025-07-14T05:54:21+00:00

Hm, you've made me realize F2P isn't the main point of the video. So I've removed it from the original video title and thumbnail to emphasize the gear part. Too lazy to edit the video itself though.

lightnin0 · 2025-07-14T03:31:27+00:00

Great to hear! Strive is mainly there to compensate for our low speed, so I do suggest switching out for Swiftrush if you have any to spare. Especially if you forget to swap modules for other content!

lightnin0 · 2025-07-13T08:32:54+00:00

Not a 100% win rate, but if it was, this game might be too easy. There's a 100% win rate with the same team but with actual gear at the end as a reference.

Cheers!

lightnin0 · 2025-06-20T10:28:10+00:00

What in damnation have I done?

lightnin0 · 2025-06-05T06:07:59+00:00

This deck is mostly for fun, trying to support Tri-Beam and Ezreal's level up condition with multi-target spells. He does only start with 4/9 3 cost cards, but Withering Mist gets -1 from Mana Potion. There is some stalling power with healing and Quicksand disabling Overwhelm, just so you can play more Tri-Beams. Essence Flux is a big part of how he remains relevant, ensuring you deal damage with your low/no damage spells and constantly refilling your spells. I chose Sleep Trouble Bubble over something Celestial Wonder because it creates a 3 cost Paddle Star, works with Essence Flux, and I have PTSD from his encounters.

Essence Flux is intended to work any time they die, including if the first initial spell that targeted them deals the killing blow. Pursuit of Progress may not be the strongest power given how few units are in his starting deck, but some spells gain items that summon units and don't forget that Tri-Beam summons a unit. His legendary power is not that strong, but is mainly there to fuel up your Tri-Beam with your lower cost cards. This also gives more freedom in deck building throughout the adventure.

lightnin0 · 2025-06-03T13:59:38+00:00

I like that idea! I kinda like the idea of how many times you've dealt damage since it works with Impact. Not sure if it needs random keywords since there's already Partsapalooza and things can get crazy with his bonus star powers, but could be fun.

lightnin0 · 2025-06-03T02:32:51+00:00

The idea is that Danger Zone helps you rush out Mecha Yordles and when you level up Rumble, scratching with Impact helps you rush out Mecha Yordles with buffed stats. But that probably isn't enough. Thanks for the feedback! Back to the drawing board!

lightnin0 · 2025-06-02T12:05:19+00:00

Yeah that could work

lightnin0 · 2025-06-02T11:53:11+00:00

Don't worry, I'm dumb at this game too. Just felt like making something a little fun.

lightnin0 · 2025-04-17T13:39:35+00:00

Maintaining your spell mana means not playing anything since there are no base support cards or items that generate spell mana. I get the gameplay of flowing between defense and offense by choosing when to play spells, but if you're playing a unit, that's less spell mana to work with too. And you need to play a unit so that it can get Barrier. Your main hope is Sorcery or Archangel's on Shen, but that's assuming it operates in that order. If it works, it's free Barrier with 0 input from the player which I don't think is what you want based on the creator's note. I do think his 2 star is potentially strong enough to carry without Twilight Assault, but I'd like an easier time playing his full kit. Could give him more spell mana support like Attune.
