This is minus 1 purple Riven that I traded to a buddy, but this is my haul after 3 prerifts and 8 prize packs after going 8-1 in matches. I guess my job is to be the reminder that not everyone is pulling ON and Sigs and such.

Another no legend but another 3-0. Deck had some good synergies and a lot of might.
Sold the purple Riven 5 drop but got a 3-0 with this deck. Played the gear removal card as multiple Riven sig gears were opened. Played with purple Riven as CC and no Legend.

C9 is a great matchup for Furia. They dont make plays earlier to make Furia uncomfortable. #worlds2026

These are the decks that were close to 50% winrate. I highlighted the decks that I think are the best decks in the meta right now. These decks have few bad matchups & no deck is good into all three. Without the best of prizing the other "good" decks will have no prey.

For the people saying that playing the best deck to win the tournament is how tcgs should be played, I agree but tbh I dont think Riftbound is balanced around that currently. It is also not how any other big Riot sponsored event has been run. But this highlight balance issues.

While I think this is a great change the timing really feels too close to the RC. This basically bans most of the decks at the event and it is only 3 weeks away.
I think it is a good moment to share, as we've been sharing stuff about RCs - we are not banning anything before the upcoming European RC. I realize timing on announcements of bans this year has been rough - we're working toward a more predictable ban window system for 2027!

Things I learned while testing Seraphine for the next set. Blue cards suck and arent fun. I'm just gonna play cards I like so, I will be playing Rengar or Jarvin going forward. Thank you for listening.

I keep hearing "they cant be cheating they are such a good guy." There is an article about how one of the most prolific MTG cheaters was a "great guy" and how it was instrumental that he was liked so he could cheat.

Watching the Demacia Cup and the difference between the east and west is weird. I feel like the west is close but then get completely destroyed in the mid game. I wonder if it is just a practice issue. The western teams are so slow to make decisions while the east are quick.

If your lgs has a new player night and you, as and experienced player, want to attend bring something fun. Also help the other players along if they are doing something illegal. The goal of these nights is to have fun and learn. If this isnt fun for you then go another night.
Bro lmao. What am I gonna do with my weeknights 💀 But fr, I think it's important for more seasoned players to build up their locals and be encouraging/helpful to new players. Not just beat them down. Think that's the bigger issue here

Great news! They unbanned Nocturne. Welcome back you were sorely missed during your extended absence.
Trifarian Captain has been officially revealed at a Preview Event in China! Translation: When you play me, look at the top 4 cards of your deck. You may reveal a Unit or Gear that costs no more than 3 Energy & 1 Power, and draw that card. Recycle the rest. #RBRadiance

I don't want to alarm any riftbound players but this purple color might be a bit more powerful than the others.

Not sure why but the flow of everything was off. 3 hour wait on thursday for badges. Another 3 hours for merch line on thursday. Friday entry line was rough too. Reg admission was told to gather in three different spots to line up to get in. Also there wasnt food on sunday.
I wanted to put some thoughts down about LA but there are too many to do in one tweet so gonna have a few of them instead of making one long thread. Tbh this might have been the worst of the RQ weekends I have attended but it was still something I would attend going forward.

#2 The meta this weekend was kind of awful to be honest. It was kind of weird that the Stacked Deck ban just made it so that the only purple spell deck to play was Kennen. Hopefully next set something changes to balance out the power level a bit.

1st and most import, I can't believe this has to be said, keep your hands to yourself. If you don't have permission to touch someone don't. Also, it doesn't matter what type of touch, even if you think it isn't a big deal. Similarly ask before taking photos of the cosplayers.

I will have more thoughts later, but since the topic of ban talks are here again, i would love a star-crossed+aurora ban. I think star-crossed is too powerful and aurora would both too powerful and negates too many cool orange decks. Tbh the second part worse than the power level

Day 2 round 9 vs Ornn This matchup feels very rough but game 1 his deck bricks and I steal a game. I get destroyed on the draw. Game 3 I'm able to stay on even tempo and put him on odds and build a large army in the backline.
#RQLA playing Kennen. Thread below. I have a bye this round so off to a great start. Got a coffee and chilling with some buddies so vibes are good.

Officially dead. Rough matchups day 2. Excited to start playing decks I enjoy rather than playing what is good.
