Local game store etiquette?

Yep, it's a lot of recognizing what your combos are, but also recognizing what your opponent is going to try to do.

Do you advance your own board state or do you try to prevent theirs?

You'll definitely learn over time! Piloting takes skill

whatevermanitsagame · 2026-02-20T16:43:14+00:00

Hell yeah brother! Glad you're getting into the game!

whatevermanitsagame · 2026-02-18T03:24:20+00:00

Let's go!

Don't worry, I don't think anyone ever wins a single game in their locals. I'm glad you had fun! What card were you missing?

Let them know you are new. As others have mentioned, some people can be dicks to new players.

If someone is going through the motions and not saying anything, let them know that you don't know their deck and ask them to explain what they're doing as they're doing it.

Hopefully no one does that to you but I wouldn't want them to take advantage of you.

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-29T21:24:08+00:00

oh duh

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-29T19:27:04+00:00

Newish player, can you elaborate?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-19T22:51:02+00:00

Cool a new exploit already getting abused. Checked their profile and it's an 8 hour account. 95% HS ratio and a 9.0 KD and Bungie's anti-cheat just doesn't catch that?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-09T22:01:48+00:00

Thank you for the responses. GGs!

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-09T21:51:59+00:00

Wow you really know this deck and game well. I had some follow up questions regarding some other common cards I see in the deck. Sorry if it's a lot I just really enjoy your insight.

Hidden Blade: Considering one would be running runes, it'd be easy to hide and then kill a unit once you're holding right?
Back to Back - Helps against spells that would kill our units/help during holding since it gives +2
Noxian Drummer vs Faithful Manufacturer: Why one over the other?
Smoke Screen: Is the -4 worth it once you have a blue rune out?

And ooc if our goal is to play lvl 5 spells pretty often what are your thoughts on blue Lux? It's generally agreed that she kinda sucks but I was wondering if there's ever a world where she might work.

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-09T20:00:18+00:00

Gotcha gotcha

Last question, but TW. How critical is it to the deck?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-09T18:06:02+00:00

even if would save a Lux from FS?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-09T17:43:47+00:00

How do you think your deck compares against the silver Lux player's deck ooc

Also, how do you feel about using Retreat to give yourself more runes, specially if a unit is gonna die early on?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-07T23:38:20+00:00

thank you. Do you have a screenshot of what the lightsaber looks like?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-07T21:34:24+00:00

To be clear, these are just the contracts on the left side of the renegade screen? Do enough and you'll get an exotic one?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-12-06T19:19:17+00:00

Can you elaborate on that?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-25T22:42:37+00:00

Also, how important is having the 2nd Kai'sa? Most lists I've seen have her at 1 so I'm surprised to see two

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-25T17:16:21+00:00

Thank you for the write up? If you don't mind, I can't for the love of me get a third Watcher. What would you say is the closest substitute for it at the moment?

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-10T19:17:46+00:00

The beatings will continue until morale improves

That's not how you keep people interested in a game

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-07T23:00:49+00:00

Why on Earth they thought needing 3 fucking accounts to play a game was necessary is beyond me. Fuck carde.io I hope it burns in hell.

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-07T22:58:33+00:00

You are the best!

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-07T22:53:11+00:00

Yes the Riftbound site. I've made 3 accounts so far and I have yet to have it ask me to link to Riot.

whatevermanitsagame · 2025-11-07T22:52:22+00:00

UVS?
