SHADOWVERSE DECK FIZZLING OUT GOING FIRST FREE

Other decks I haven't faced much but I imagine a couple that would be good, like Dragonblade's Dirt Rune or maybe even Starforged D-Shift (ramping into Giant Quimera).ĭragoncraft: speaking of Item Shop counters, we have one in Dragon: Fortune's Discard Dragon.

Also aggroing them is very difficult considering that they get a free heal and can run Vergewalker. Counters to Item Shop are extremely limited, at least if we had unnerfed Greater Will we could have more and better answers to this bs deck.

Out of all Rune opponents I've faced, Item Shop was the most common by far, and I lost all games. Runecraft: I hate to say it, but I told you all that Item Shop would be broken. If you really want to play Sword, better forget about 'pure value midrange decks' and instead go for either an Aggro deck or something cheesy (like Balyeon). The curse of being a midrange board-oriented class in an explosive format like Custom Rotation means Sword's playrate is a symptom of its viability. If you face one, it's most likely to be a Bayleon Loop deck, which tbh isn't really threatening compared just with what we've seen so far in the Forest paragraph. Swordcraft: some of the least seen classes for sure. But if you do have an answer to Resolve'd boards, the opponent will be left thinking what to do after they wasted their hand, as Resolve is also a key piece for their backup combos.

I suggest having some boardwipe at hand whenever you jump into this format, just for the sheer fact that Forest decks using Resolve are some of the most common you'll encounter. When I lost against Forest, it always was because the opponent topdecked 2-3 Heroic Resolves and made a megaboard out of nowhere, when I didn't have an answer (I literally had someone play Wisp + Fairy + x3 Resolve (with another Fairy in the board already) and I lost to that). In fact, I haven't been OTKd by Ladica even once, or was close to it anytime. Currently, due to its high deck variety, the strongest decks aren't those with high average value, but those that can cheese victories unless the opponent has their deck build against them.įorestcraft: or should I say, Resolvecraft? Heroic Resolve is singlehandedly carrying the class, and no, it's not limited to Ladica. It doesn't make old decks insta-broken, but definitely make them way more viable, particularly in the case of unreliable and/or slow combo decks.

So, I'll leave my first impressions before asking you guys your experience (I'll refer to the expansion the decks are from by the in-game teminology, like Glory=Rebirth of Glory and Storms=Omen of Storms):Ĭustom Rotation in general: the effects given to old decks are really, really strong. I tried decks from all classes, older and newer, and faced a decent variety of decks. I have played over 30 games, which isn't a lot but at least gives me enough info as to make some base ideas on what the format looks like, and will be in the following days. It's been a day and a half since Custom Rotation has been launched, we have started seeing content and had time to go back in time and personally enjoy our old decks, or just chill out of the 2 main formats and experience something different.
