I took home Best Of Nasus at #RQLA! So proud of this achievement, I played 6 Skirmishes leading up to the event and made it to 4 finals iterating the final build. Thank you to my local testing group who let me test my horrifically bad day 1 builds. Ask me anything!

Excited to share this awesome interview with @ShuffleUpCrispy as he blindly evaluates @Cyberpunk_TCG cards for the first time! A very fun episode!!
I would categorize them as:
* Truly bad, will likely not Day 2 an RQ and average a 5-3 record (Rumble, Garen, etc)
* Mid, can/will Day 2, average record of 9-4 or 10-3 (Nasus, Ambessa, etc.)
* Cream of the crop, can/will top cut, average record of 11-1-1 (Irelia, Kennen, etc.)
For people who don't play Riftbound, we're not all EV chasers. You have a Legend and Chosen Champion within the confines of a domain pair which dramatically changes gameplay. It's not comparable to MTG 1-5 colors. Here you start with a Legend first, not the land base.
Isn't it just as compelling of a narrative to say I am taking a lower tier deck and pushing the limits of what it can do? I think that's why I am so appalled at people from other TCGs criticizing players like @GYATarina who put in the time and effort.
The RC Best Of Discussion discourse is interesting. For context, I was less so chasing the EV and moreso chasing the title and memories of being a teenage top laner.
To me, this was the perfect intersection of a fun journey and pushing my competitive limits.
Hey folks, my mind is currently stuck on this web on how to build #Nasus in #Radiance. Does anyone else think of their pet decks in the same chaotic way? This is what I love about #Riftbound, building and piloting Nasus for a Best Of meant I got to experiment with weird cards.
Discussion on Breach: I may be giving too much away, but Breach now becomes an incredible card with Empyrean. Previously the only payoffs were Rockfall Path and holding with Watcher. This may mean Heron makes the cut again!
Getting the feelers out there. Outside of Riftbound I’m actually a PhD candidate with scientific publications defending soon. I was thinking of publishing a Metafy but is it taboo to have it be paid? I have high standards for my own writing.
