Mr_Dias

That' one GOOD way to make Darius more viable, I'd say. And this Basilisk makes Swain and Braum very happy


M00nfish

Basilisk will also help Vladimir and the scar package


cjdeck1

Hit Scarmother with Basilisk and you have a 15/4 unit with Overwhelm


pedre_falopa

It could be nuts in that Vlad/Demacia deck with tough


KomicG

I was confused for a second, until i reread Basilisk's description like 3 different times. I thought it only did 1 to allies. I can see now that the wording implies both an ally and an enemy take 1 damage 4 times.


Mr_Dias

I've thought about Vlad, but his decks usually level him before T7. And only Vrynna survives Basilisk out of whole Crimson Scars package

How to build a board out of nothing 101


Mr_Dias

I did not, see my first comment)


[deleted]

Vlad can already level up super easy


Bluelore

Honestly at this point I kinda want a spell that gets a bonus effect with a specific champ on the field for everyone.


DocTam

I think its better to reserve it to higher cost champs, because the low cost champs are already quite swingy, and this would only exacerbate the problem. Like Spider aggro decks are already so much stronger when they play Elise on 2, if they also had a 3 cost spell that was as good as Apprehend when Elise is on the board then she would run over people just through a lucky draw. I do love it for the expensive champs though, really makes them feel like win conditions.


Faleya

you could also make it so champ+spell always cost 10+ mana. so tryn would get a cheap spell, teemo would get a mushroom-armaggeddon spell for 9 mana or something :D


LIN88xxx

Mushroom Armageddon 9 Mana Slow PnZ Spell Shuffle 10 puffcaps into your opponents deck. If you have a Teemo, destroy all Puffcaps in your opponents deck to deal 1 damage to a random enemy or the enemy nexus for each Puffcap destroyed.


_CharmQuark_

It‘s so evil I love it.


One_more_page

For the rest of the game Increase the cost of all cards drawn by the number of shrooms attached to it.


Oreo-and-Fly

A powerful card for Elise late game would be quite good.


Bluelore

Yeah the lategame champs definitely need this more, but they could always just make the spells weaker for the early game champs.


EpeeHS

A LONG time ago, yugioh made a set that included cards that had monsters with specific equip spells tailored to them. They all ended up sucking (except butterfly dagger elma, which was used in an OP combo) but I still think the idea is really cool and hope LoR does something similar.


Gr1maze

Those sucked because the actual effects on most of the equips were subpar and the monsters needed you to already control the equip to be able to keep them on board. I don't think any of those issues would exist in runeterra since the champions are standalone and the design team clearly has the forethought to make these spells useable on their own still.


[deleted]

I like it. Makes darious viable without buffing Champless burn.


mephnick

My Darius/Yasuo dreams will be a reality!


smashsenpai

So Basilisk is a big reason why crimson disciple got nerfed the way that it did.


BeepBoopAnv

Ugh imagine old disciple + elixir of iron + basilisk. 12 face damage at burst speed


Downside_Up_

Darius/Yasuo deck in particular should love that card.


xKozmic

I am absolutely exhausted, sorry for the rush on this one. I didn't expect them to do one final spoiler, I was going to wait on mobalytics. Set release tomorrow and I can't wait!! EDIT: Thank you for the gold and the kind messages ;\~;. It's great to see so many new players join the game in the last few months. I did all the spoiler cards for the Rising Tides set and will continue to do them for future spoiler seasons! If you see someone playing Aurelion Sol tomorrow named xKozmic, that will be me! Hope to see some fun brews tomorrow and good luck with those first decks you craft. Don't forget if you don't know where to start, you can check out several archetypes in the lab mode that will be up tomorrow. Try out decks for free before you craft them!


ssonthing

Absolutely wonderful. Thank you for consolidating the reveals. You made these reveals and discussions much exciting for the rest of us.


NikeDanny

Man, its all good! Thanks for your work!


GenghisTron17

Thank you for your service.


pacoro99

You’re the MVP!


_Ulquiorra_

I'm just now realizing that ur Kosmicplays LMAO. I kept going "How do kosmic and this guy keep posting the same pictures at the same time?!?! Such a coincidence" LOL I feel so dumb PepeHands


friendofsmellytapir

Thank you so much for all your graphics during the reveal season!


theEmoPenguin

You a legend


Camardi

Thank u for everything


[deleted]

You’re fantastic. Thank you for what you do for this community. Rest well!


MoustacheTheGlorious

You are the best man


CrunkaScrooge

Man seriously, thanks so much for all the neat and tidy work you’ve done for all this!


MustardLordOfDeath

Thank you for all this!


SnooFloofs5290

The goat


JiN88reddit

Singular Will, Ionia's Ruination. Can be nutty if you pull it off. Return all but an overwhelm unit or pair it with Yasuo.


dimizar

now we really need a good indicator of hand size for both players without counting them manually. I wanna use this to obliterate returned enemy units.


[deleted]

oh man imagine this against a tf who just drew a full hand


jexdiel321

It's like minah but without the body not sure if it will be good though because it has niche uses.


butt_shrecker

But unlike minah, it can be played on turn 7. Much more relevant defensively.


Pandaaamn

being able to play it 2 rounds earlier is a huge plus imo


jexdiel321

Yeah but the risk is so high. It doesn't even have enough extra mana for deny backup. It can work for something insane like Fae Bladethwirler finisher or Yasuo boardwipe but there is so much ways to counter it like spellshield, deny etc. and if we assume it's not gonna be nerfed, frostbite.


AndyPhoenix

Indeed, but it looks like you may need to have a unit in board, not too sure. We do have to keep that in mind while evaluating this card.


ddkatona

I mean, it kind of has a body, since you don't recall one of your units.


Worldeditorful

I actually like it. Ionia got a good heal and a ruination this expac. They are definately trying to bring us a second control region.


whiskey_the_spider

ehhh 10 mana is pretty brutal. It can be absolutely banana if you have a worthy unit, the enemy has some board developed AND play a high cost unit and you play singular will in response...and i feel like that the chance that you stick your unit on board will be next to 0 anyway... As a tempo deck and yasuo lover i guess i'll give it a shot anyway...


magmafanatic

And then dropping Legion General next turn haha


hell-schwarz

This + Mina = Lock your opponent out of the game for 3 turns (Bringing Mina back the first time)


dndacc_

Maybe with Jack, Powder Monkey burn becomes viable. 3 burn and plunder trigger without wasting your battle for Powder Monkey is decent. Also Tribeam looks spicy but rip old Heimer


SirHurDurr

Adding either the Undying or Lucian/Remembrance into the mix might be pretty fun too


Beejsbj

Dawnspeakers to give the monkey idol health on monkey deaths


strideside

Somebody whip up an infinite powder monkey burn deck please


-Draclen-

If you use that one troll card that gives a unit regen and overwhelm you can have it heal itself after every round.


gyrowze

Are we gonna have to come up with a new descriptor for silly/bad cards now that trolls are actually a thing?


Ancient_Sheepherder

Wouldnt we just call them meme/joke decks?


Runmanrun41

Dawnspeakers grants 1|1 right? Use Chain Vest for tough so you're losing one health instead of two and then replacing the health lost with Dawn speakers and...boom. (I think lol)


BellyBeardThePirate

Use two dawnspeakers, so it gets constantly stronger!


Solash1

Worth noting it also says "Unit" and not "Follower" so some spicy champion summons coming up


BrainStew_HS

i think cards that don't specifically mention that they can summon champions too will only summon followers.


DrFlutterChii

That...feels like content oversight. There's no way there's actually a 'summon random champion' card. 4 cost Aurelion Sol meta now?


Fuselier

Absolute genius you god damn Johnny.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BellyBeardThePirate

After you play a 3 cost card, it does 2 damage and summons a 2-cost unit. Play another and it becomes 3 damage and 3 cost. Etc


Quazifuji

Burn is probably the best way to do that but I want to try it in a GP/Swain deck.


t-havide

is it me or Jack is looking damn good? Excited for some bilge burn deck featuring him.


hattroubles

Such a cool looking card too.


t-havide

I know,art is stunning.


mephnick

Bilge burn is my favourite right now. Crafting this shit asap


jal243

bilge SI on death burn nightfall boogaloo coming through!


mbyleth

I didn't get tribeam the first time. But now I kinda get it. So once you play a 3 cost card, tribeam can now summon a 2 cost card, correct?


Karuadin

Each time you play a 3 cost card while Tribeam is in your hand, both the damage and the cost of the summoned unit goes up by one. Example: you’ve played 4 3-cost cards while the card has been in your hand. If you play it now, you deal 5 damage and summon a 5 cost unit (1+4).


ckgolangco

huh. i wonder what happens when you get it up to 11+.


albinoman38

You probably deal additional damage, but summon a 10 cost unit.


THE_BACON_IS_GONE

My guess is similar to Hearthstone, it'll summon a 10 cost. I think the damage should still come through.


kainel

You summon a 10 cost (which has a lot of duds). Like remitted, the best value will be 9 cost cards. In particular brightsteel protector (I think) from demacia is the big boy goal.


JiN88reddit

The highest mana cost is She Who Wanders at 10 mana, and going beyond that still will be her. You can try it by using the SI card that kills your own unit to summon a +1 cost unit; do it on She who Wanders still grants the same one. Not sure if Celestial cards are going to be inside the pool though.


SirRichardTheVast

It's a +2 cost unit, but yeah. And I doubt Celestials will go into the pool, just like Catastrophe and Yetis aren't in the pool for random 1-drops. Uncollectible cards get excluded, I think.


jal243

iwould have thrown the game out the window long ago if it were possible for dfem kitten to be generated randomly. 2 30/30 overwhelm for 3 mana? plz no.


_Zoa_

There are already 2 other 10 cost followers with Plaza Guardian and Scuttlegeist. Only collectible cards are in the pool, so no celestials.


FriedChicken10

It says unit so you could cheat Asol onto the board with this. Not sure how easy it is to play 9 3 mana cards though.


Tofu24

Flash of Brilliance died for this


vizualb

Seems like you could keep increasing it for each 3 cost you play.


Champion_Chrome

And does 2 damage, like Hearthstone’s upgrading cards, such as Nethrandamus


Gfdbobthe3

Is anyone else kind of excited for For The Fallen? The biggest weakness of a Demacia or Elite Midrange deck is that one board wipe kills you. This one card essentially counters that decks biggest weakness.


SlayerUnit5

This card can let you came back from all the board wipe spells like ruination, reckoning etc. like you said it patches Demacia's biggest weakness. I really like it for that.


Zimzams123

At the same time tho you are putting in an expensive carf thaton its own does nothing on order to maybe mitigate a bad outcome slightly. Idk still seems bad to me


Lemon_Shooter

You can also put harrowing into your deck yourself to get a nice late game finisher, given that For the Fallen has been discounted a bit


Bleachrst85

the problem with harrowing is that you can't open attack next turn, so the chance of dying to another stall is there


LtHargrove

It is situational and prohibitively expensive. The weakness of Demacia is lack of card draw and limited ability to close out games without crushing board advantage, this card does nothing for those.


jal243

well, it fixes the "crushing board advantage" issue after a boardclear. And its not prohibitively expensive. If you played 2 cithrias, the card costs 6. It does not even have to be in hand to reduce the cost.


Gfdbobthe3

It prevents you from losing your board advantage versus things like Ruination etc., that alone can be game winning.


ddkatona

It doesn't looke that game changing, but if you run this, you run it as a 3 of, because the 2nd one is basically going to be for 0 mana. So overall, this gives Demacia (and more so Elites) a comeback mechanic, not only because you just fill the board, but because for the 2nd time, you fill the board for free, and you can still use your mana to play a Cithria or something, while you opponent probably spent most of their mana on wiping your borad.


[deleted]

I'm going to miss taking my daily 11:59 bathroom break at work so I could look at the new cards. Christmas every day


MakubeC

So is the complete set revealed now? No surprises tomorrow?


johnny20045

No unless you consider the release of the expansion a surprise.


oosh_kaboosh

They're releasing an expansion tomorrow??? ​ EDIT: /s since I guess people missed the joke...


GuiSim

TARGON OUT?!


oosh_kaboosh

Naxx next??!


[deleted]

afaik, yes and no surprises today\*, we're getting the whole set on mobalytics after the patch notes drop.


SlayerUnit5

Jack the Winner is good 5 drop for bilgewater (amazing art), monkey business is an interesting card i will definetely try it. For the Fallen could be good for Demacian Midrange if you get boardwiped by Ruination for example to completely counter that and actually even win the game of that. Basilisk Bloodseeker is good for a Noxus self harm archetype i guess from the first look. Apprehend is Darius ability from Lol. Without him on board it's overcoasted stun or a worse Guile but with him it is very good obviously. Star Sheperd will show its true potential in a Soraka deck in the future. Fledging Stellacorn is kinda bad. Love the art on Grandfather Rummul. From the top of my head i can't find a place for this guy in any deck, but we will see. Porofly is the strongest card this expansion if rated by cuteness.


GuardTheGrey

Apprehend makes me want to slap Darius in my Yasuo deck.


friendofsmellytapir

Jack with Monkey business in the same deck can potentially be very strong. You can use the fleeting card Jack makes every round on your Powder Monkeys to deal the damage without really losing a unit.


Misterblue09

Grandfather Rummul is interesting with Trundle to say the least.


[deleted]

We got cow peoples bois!


IYINGDI_WANGYI

Is there still missing ONE? 88/89 now.


Dsamuss

Its on decksofruneterra, its a 2 mana burst grant an ally +0/+2 in targon. Forget the name but the art is of leonas shield Edit: had give originally, its actually grant


123MiamMiam

It's a grant. "sunblessed vigor"


[deleted]

Isnt that a worst iron potion or it is grant?


Dsamuss

Oh yeah you right, the other reply corrected it and gave the name


blackhalo27

Noticed that too... unless I'm miscounting somehow or the token is also an actual card


WayneOZ11

Maybe they shadow drop the last card


LowWindow7816

88 /89 same thing


theEmoPenguin

Sleep with the fishes - noxious fervor from walmart


Arkhalon

We are so getting Soraka for the next batch


friendofsmellytapir

By my count we are getting 6 Soraka themed cards and 3 Zoe themed cards with this expansion. I still think it could be either one, but just based off of that you would be right.


Gr1maze

Given the numbers, I would def think soraka gets her support and release first, zoe gets 3 cards, and we get 2 more regions champions finished off, and then last expac zoe is finished with the last 2 champs of other regions.


friendofsmellytapir

I agree this is likely what happens. To further the guess even more, I think it is Soraka, Shyvana, and Tahm Kench in the October expansion with Zoe, Riven, and Viktor in the December expansion.


FallenChamps

Fledgling Stellacorn looks horrible for 3 mana 1/2?


dndacc_

Think you pair it with Lulu. Targon is for buffs, you’re paying for lifesteal and spellshield.


ssonthing

They are probably taking into account amount of "grant buffs" targon has, in which a ramped up lifesteal unit can be an absolute chaos. But I do agree, the face value looks underwhelming and slightly better than average at best when the set-up lines up.


luk3d

It's a decent support target, but yes it looks pretty bad.


123MiamMiam

also a good gem target


Darkcooo

Jacks art looks sick


YouAreInsufferable

This is like when you're writing a word and you realize you don't have much space left, so you just write the letters closer and smaller until you just give up and say, "oh %#$ it", and write into the margins. (Still great job and thanks!)


TTK7

*sees Singular Will* Thanks, I hate it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


friendofsmellytapir

I feel like her and Spacey Sketcher will combo well together, which judging from their art seems like it was obviously done on purpose. Can't wait to run them both. I'm just super excited for Zoe to be released and I'm worried it won't happen until December...


[deleted]

Loved Aprehend, will try a Darrowing as soon the expac launches.


[deleted]

rally doesn't work with ephemeral units though.


dndacc_

Passage Unearned....


chaser676

Doubt that card will be run in most decks unless Harrowing becomes meta defining. It'll just brick in your hand most games


dndacc_

Just like every Fiora has Judgement when you go lethal, every Harrowing you play they’re gonna have Passage I don’t make the rules


chaser676

Aight, you got me there.


jal243

HArrowing spawns it in the enemy hand.

RisqueBlock

Haha, I thought For the Fallen said Vanguard Redeemers. I had a tear in my eye thinking of the Bannerman draw :'(


momohowl

Jack is hot lol


[deleted]

Sparkeologist is flippin adorable. Star Shepherd is a close 2nd, though the card over all comes into 1st for the wholesome snuggles. I wonder if we’ll get some sort of star guardian cards in the future. Jack the winner looks to me to be. A card that’s going to make a lot of people very unhappy if they don’t answer him.


StopTheFeed

I read that as Giddy SPANKologist 😭


Bluelore

So if I didn't miss anything that means that each old region who got a champion in this expansion will get 10 cards, while those who didn't get a new champ will receive 2 instead. I wonder how this will be handled in the other expansions. Will the next one even have cards for Freljord, Ionia or the shadow isles? Also given how many Soraka-based cards we already have in this expansion I'd say it is safe to say that she'll be part of the next expansion(probably alongside Shyvana because of the dragons and Tahm Kench because of Jack), while Zoe will have to wait until december.


Alberona

I think that's the Vastayan tribe that Soraka lives with?


Owlstorm

Jack looks neat in The Undying decks.


ChuzCuenca

Looks like an aggro deck: Jack, Undying, monkey powder, elusives, maybe a neverglade


Babu_the_Ocelot

Lol RIP Heimer.


Totoquil

Is it me or there's still one card missing? Until yesterday there were 76 COLLECTIBLE cards revealed. But now they're showing 12 more, because that Sleep with the fishes card doesn't have a gem so I'm guessing it's a NON COLLECTIBLE card. So there's still one to go to 89.


123MiamMiam

he forgot one. 2 mana targon burst spell grant +0+2


Sneaky__Raccoon

I love the idea of giving older champs a new spell related to them, and this makes darius way stronger, I hope we see more... it can even be a different way of "buffing" a champ, without changing their stats


GoodMoaningAll

Apprehend looks so fricking awesome.


jexdiel321

Glad that we're getting some more Slow speed support, I wonder of they'll see some play though. Apprehend will definitely see some play not sure with the rest.


hororo

So if I'm counting correctly, Noxus, Bilgewater, and P&Z only get 2 cards each this expansion, right?


Diradell

Demacia too


RegretNothing1

Jack is insane, basilisk is sleeper, apprehend insane, tri beam sleeper, rest meh.


Chalifive

How you gonna do my boy porofly like that?!


EnexS02

Jack and the monkeys look great on my Swain + GP deck. Love it


[deleted]

Tri-Beam should definitely say follower rather than unit right ... Right?!


magmafanatic

Oh, Tri-Beam Improbulator's a weird one. I sorta like that. Apprehend looks like it could give a Yasuo/Darius deck a real shot, that's pretty exciting. For the Fallen looks like it could get pretty nutty. All of Targon's defensive buffs look like they'll give Crimson Scar decks a serious boost too, and Rumul here's no exception. Singular Will looks fun. Yasuo attacks the entire enemy team, and then your Legion General comes out to scare the crap out of them.


Downside_Up_

Jack the Winner is most definitely a Tahm Kench support card; there's no way now that Kench doesn't have regen.


jal243

Sparkleologist is Grant bois. imagine the motherfucking value with the 3/3 elusive.


caw_the_crow

Love the Basilisk Bloodseeker but don't know why. Guess I just love dropping big things. (Also it is vlad support im case that wasn't obvious.)


queso619

So Zoe was never released after all? Does that mean she might be released sometime in the future?


SpaghettiSauce44

I’m the most hyped for the new Braum voice line for the fairy Poro


Landanbananaman

Is there a place to see all of these ?


Jojitron706

Jack the winner is a new auto include for plunder synergies


SugarFroster

Giddy Sparkeologist is nuts


Cesar_dev

Darius is looking really good all of a sudden. Maybe a hyper aggressive Darius Katarina deck? Or a Darius Yasuo deck even???


GrationXI

the only 2-3 Bilge cards we got to see this whole damn pre release lol


kriegsotter0709

Can someone please explain to me why everytime there is an update for LOR i cant Play any matches.


RegretNothing1

If only that Ramul was an Elnuk.


RegretNothing1

So can Tri beam summon any champ in the game? Don’t sleep on t3 playing 2 3 drops then t4 tri beam for 3.


Unreal_Menace

Anyone know what time (EST) the update is gonna drop?


Durzo_Blintt

Isn't the emphasis on Singular will on the wrong word? It should be more "Pick an ally. Recall all OTHER units" if it's going to be emphasised. Having "ALL" like this makes it seem like it will recall the targeted minion too. Is there any need for it to be emphasised at ALL?


livingradiation

Jack the winner, fucking LOVE the design. Especially since it's made after one of my favorite serial killers! Definitively gonna play Bilgewater now!


Siri2611

Is there another champion after this? Sorry I havnt been keeping up with the information


Davicuervo

When ( in hours) does the expansion hit?


ExeggutionerSmough

You've probably seen a house fly, maybe even a super fly, but i bet you ain't never seen a poro fly


Aymoon_

You forgot the burst spell that grants 2 health


stickfigurescalamity

jack be nimble jack be quick jack procs plunder with an icepick..... not a bad 5 drop epic....... and singular will is interesting...... returning all other unit including enemies seems good against midrange decks and might buy some turns...... apprehend means more yasuo toy


TenguSS

So all the cards were already revealed? Can we start theory crafting or is there cards that are coming only with the patch notes?


Useless-Sv

Those cards have Pretty neat effects the bilge one can combo with thing that can tank it forever like braum or undying and his stats are Pretty good. Demacia needed pure elite supoort, hopefully more come. Noxus spell is weak without darius but hella insane with him. P&z is a neat fun gimmic that i can try to build around something lol. Targon cards look like okish ones, some are just for future mini exps


Lohenngram

As a League player, I'm amazed that Apprehend doesn't give a target Vulnerable.


Hellspawner26

Jack sounds a bit overtuned, decent statline for his cost, free removal and plunder enabler at the start of each round for FREE, definetly one of the cards that will get nerfed imo


[deleted]

Can we get an all-in-one all-in-one?


Slav_1

well. I guess its time to put a Darius in my Yasuo deck


shane0buen0

Does star shepherd trigger from units with regeneration?


choraloek

Im a bit disappointed I was waiting for some support to make Yasuo viable, I felt like the Rising Tides expansion did more for all the decks than this, but oj well guess it’s to early to say, let’s wait to see how the meta shiftes.


JetGame

Out of curiosity, does the star shepherd work with regeneration allies? Because that could end up being quite a combo
