"The next region they'll add will probably be the void" Whos gonna break it to him?

I've never really seen Legends of Runeterra damn some of the card transformations look sick

they 'confirmed' that bandle is last region, ixtal probably joining shurima, and void is kind joining based on the champ like reksai in shurima

Brickys Legends of Runeterra content is very entertaining. Keep doing that.

Every lurker in the deck will get +1/0 ONLY if there's a lurker on the top of your deck when you attack which means that if 90% of your cards aren't lurk you run a big chance to not get the buff

Love the video, but I think it’s odd that you criticized Viego for not having flexible build options and then in the next breath praised Lurk, which has the least flexible build options of any archetype in the game.

Best digital card game I have ever played. Great game-design taking lessons learned from both Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone and fixing problems of both, while also being different enough to feel fresh. High quality animations and sound-design and a very very generous monetization scheme. I cannot complain.

I like LoR because as an Azir main, I can finally play a game where he isn't hot garbage

just fyi, they confirmed that bandle city is the 10th and final region, so ixtal and void champs will be shoved into the other regions where they fit best

Oh, Bricky, if you like milling your opponent, there's a whole Piltover/Shadow Isles deck running about, based around summoning a ton of Aloof Travelers through playing them and using Fading Memories/Stalking Shadows, then obliterating your opponents' draws through multiple Harrowings to summon all those Travelers again.

Dad I missed you

Okay that Cait deck is something I havent considered. New decks literally every day.

I can tell you what happend. They added irelia and all my decks got rolled by it Now i play lurkers

I can see he doesn't play that much, but I admire he's passion for the game.

Bricky : "paying money for literly just art " me crys in artist

Love the vid, your first LoR vid got me into the game and I've been playing since, but I couldn't disagree more with the flexibility take with Viego and Lurkers. Now I am not gona say that Viego is an incredibly flexible champ but there is a decent variety of decks you can make with him. Lurkers is among the least flexible decks in the game. If you want to play Rek'Sai or Pyke the only way to make them any sort of useful is in a lurk deck, and the only way to make a lurk deck is to just throw in most of the cards with a lurk keyword and splash in some predict. To be clear I am not a lurk hater, I actually like the archetype but it is one of the most limiting deck types with very little room for creativity, certainly less than you would have with Viego. Anyways, great vid, I agreed with pretty much everything else you had to say, especially the cosmetics maybe not being up to par.

The only mobile game I ever play, thanks to you bricky. Im also balls deep into warhammer 40k, again thanks to you. Much love brother

Your video was what got me interested in trying LoR. I´ve not stopped ever since. Thanks

I would love to see more Runeterra content from you, I found out about this game from you, so glad to see more about it here. I play Viego decks a lot, but I can kind of agree with your opinion on Viego regarding deck building. I think it’s actually intentional, because Virgo’s whole shtick is taking everything for himself and the Shadow Isles. That being said, I see a lot of variations where Viego is paired with Shurima and the Freljord a lot.

awesome video bricky!

Take a look at howling abyss. I made a deck with only removal spells and howling abyss. You just delete the opponents win conditions until you just start spamming lvl 2 champions. It doesnt work all the time, but if it does, its the funniest shit.

I actually came back to this game because of your previous video and have been playing ever since. Their free-to-play friendliness and deck flexibility are really the main selling points for me -- there's the allure of crafting these amazing deck ideas coupled with the fact that I *can* eventually create the necessary cards within 2-4 weeks of play.

I remember you praising LoR at the beginning, I never was into online card games, but this game hooked me, even though it was for a short while. I didn't play it for a long time and I wondered where it is now and luckilly, you got me covered. :D nice

The appreciation for LeBlanc’s voice acting instant subscribe Very good content

Braum/Soraka has been my guilty pleasure for the last month or two, can't say I regret what I've done

Fantastic video bricky! I love it!

Your big legends of runeterra video from last year is still the best. Also was fun to see stream the game just recently :)

Hey Bricky, been watching you since you made "So you want to main Yasuo". Its been a long time since Ive played LoL and when I stopped I kind of stopped watching your videos since then they were still focused around it. However, I later saw some of your game reviews/commentaries and I really fell back into watching your stuff. I've always loved your style of humor and your commentaries in general. So in other words, you're doing an amazing job and I along with your community are all grateful for it. Have a good one bud.

LAMO, ty brick love it. The end was gold. Maybe some game play or even fan games in the future?

Great quality videos, love the vids bricky

I really enjoy when you discuss anything about LOR

This is the best card game in my opinion. It has amazing graphics, music, depth and it's really free to play friendly unlike hearthstone and magic where you need to pay so much money just to create a few competitive meta decks in order to enjoy the game. Gwent is also really good but legends of runeterra is just the better and more fun to play game in my opinion. Give it a try.

12:24 I do hope they keep the multi-region thing exclusive to Bandlecity. It just makes sense thematically, as Bandlecity is everywhere and so are its units. ^^

Thank you for making another video on my favorite game!

As an enjoyer of finer details, lore expansion, and lastly cards games. Your original video on LoR is not only what got me to drop Hearthstone after 5 years and switch over. But it also what got me to binge your channel in its entirety and watch every upload since. Thanks for giving justice to games that really don't recieve the credit where its due and keep doing great man. (Just a side note on the regions: Riot said they aren't doing any more regions; they're releasing those champions within the regions they're most relevant to)

I mean, you can play viego with ionia ephemeral units, or noxus ephemeral units, or with demacian challenger units, or with units that just have big power in general to try to flip him faster. You can also play him in control shells as a value engine like SI/Freljord and not really try to turbo level him, just slowly advancing his level up while he makes free pressure on the opponent over the course of the game. He's less 1 dimensional than you are making him out to be imo, but it's okay if you don't vibe with a few champions, there are so many of them!

I MISSED YOU SO MUCH BRICC

Thank god for the Caitlyn deck. I've been experimenting and you've hit the nail on the head. Thank you

7:08 that «stun stun stun» was super smooth and matched 1:1 with the background footage, loved that

I mean Viego needing isle's makes sense, he is THE RUINED KING tbf :p

I find it impressive how often I feel that the game is the best it's ever been.

Coming back to this video after watching it a month ago. I started with the original release of runeterra and decided to give it a go again after your review. And man am I over the moon about this game ever since! Thank you

I always love watching your lor videos cause is my currently favorite game. I agree in everything you said in this video besides the viego champ release, I love those abs hehe. That last deck idea sounds so toxic and fun might give it a try.

“All the good of league without the league” I might just have to try it now

Augment gang. Before it was all about viktor/zoe creation, but im finding that Nami was a fine addition, if you prefer creating spells constantly instead of followers. its fun watching viktor with every possible positive keyword also reach stats like 60/20

Man thank you for talking about the card level ups, favorites are twisted fate and aurelion sol. They both show off the card in very cool ways and end with a nice card flourish aurelion sol literally flying into his card at rhe end and TF doing a card trick to then spin it to hit the ground. FEELS GREAT TO SEE I SWEAR

You always make amazing videos on the not triple a games everybody needs to know about !

5:07 "the best champions...are where you can build a multitude of builds around them" Oh god, he's gonna say reksai and pyke are bad champs isnt he.... seriously screw lurk being so bottlenecked edit: wait what? he talks about how you NEED to build shadow isles with Viego and at least get to sprinkle in another faction for flavor. Then he glosses over how you NEED to build Bildgewater AND Shurima (EXCLUSIVELY!!!!) with a deck FULL of the lurkers from their respective regions or pyke/reksai/lurk will fall on their asses without the ability to consistantly hit lurkers and predictions...

Glad I finally find someone who feels the same about the recent level-up animation. I mean, while they look great, many of them doesn't have the same impact that old-style animations have.

You're such a good RU-vidr... Love your content homie

You got me into this game off your first video now I play almost every day.

Had a weird game as a minion/spell buff Garen and Lux deck. Which is like the basic of basics. And my first match against a player ever was against a Fearsome/challenger Swain Elise deck. It wasn't a stomp out like other card games would have been. It was actually a very close back and forth where I survived the final push with 1 nexus health a won on the backswing. It was a fun experience as I didn't just straight up lose to power creep.

Who’s gonna tell bricky that they’re not adding anymore regions, all the void and ixtali champs are gonna be added to already existing regions Edit: I see I’m not the first to point that out

I like your stuff Bricky. Thanks.

Viego is kind of lacking when it comes to lvl up etc. but god damn that card is so good xD Nothing is funnier than stealing the strongest enemy card and blasting your opponent with 7/7 Encroaching Mists. Love that card so much

10:17 nonono u wrong. When u attack, if your top card has lurk ALL your lurk units get +1|0

Your old video made me try it and I still play it

I just saw your first video on LoR just yesterday. I’m going to be eating good today! Thank you for the content!

I personally love the lvl up animations. I like to see the character leveling up more than the card itself. It feels glorious. Maybe because i grew up with Yu-Ghi-Oh! My biggest issue is that they disabled the global server (cross-shard challange) so you can't play with other players outside your servsr region :( I loved the 2v2 labs too and they retired it. The new labs is amazing too.

"It's so mediocre and lacks a lot of character" yep that about sums up Viego along with your take that the event was rushed.

Hope to see another one of these soon ^^

This is the most anticipated bricky video

I gotta agree with you about the new levelups. The older ones like Swain, Twisted Fate, and Lucian were short, punchy, and memorable, the newer ones are too much.

Drinking game: Take a shot every time brick has to mention Poland in gaming.

I started playing lor after watching your original vid about the game - having a blast so far! My fav deck is plunder midrange.

Man the recommendation to play this game was a good one, and I've never gotten into league at all till now

I’ve actually started playing again recently. This is a crazy coincidence lol. I still have no idea what all the new cards do and most losses feel like BS but I’ve been having fun.

Honestly if you’re a fan of viktor, try throwing in Zoe instead

When you mentioned your idea for animated art for Champions while on the board when using a skin, it reminded me of Gwent's "Prismatics", where upgraded cards will get a fully looped animated version of it's art while been on the board, I really liked that tbh, and it'll be awesome to have something like that on LoR

I got a Pokémon card game ad right after you made that vaporion comment

Kinda found it funny how you criticized Viego for being an autobuild but praised lurk next. I do agree about Lurk being a lot more creative and fun tho

Imo the Viego "problem" about the deckbuilding is not reeally a problem, card games usually tend to add center pieces that incentivate you to build around that specific card (mono colors in MTG, or "only paladin" and "no creature mage" in hearthstone). Having that option is always great for someone that REALLY loves a region. Shurima ascended is another example. I LOVE shurima, so having a deck DEDICATED around that makes my brain go happy chemicals, but I understand your point around card flexibility, Azir also goes well with Irelia so having both options is always best.

The Snatch reference… I think imma rewatch it for the millionth time today!

Love the LoR content bricky!

Great video. The only thing that bugs me is that you "complain" about the fact that Viego can only really fit into one deck (he's kinda limited I agree) but then use Lurk as a good point. Lurk is fun and has its place but it is one of if not the most limited deck from a deckbuilding perspective (next to Soraka I guess). You can't really use many cards without the Lurk keyword or your deck will be extremely inconsistent and there are not enough Lurk-cards for decks to be different. They all use more or less the same cards. The only real difference is if the deck is more Pyke or Rek'sai focused.

my all time favorite LOR quote is "why isn't my loping telescope making more telescope's?"

12:20 oohh the memes. Really didn't expect bricky to be this deep into yu-gi-oh.

New Bricky vid POG

Best card game Pog

Good video, but really weird that you praised Lurk and thought that Viego was too railroaded to one deck. In reality, it's nearly the exact opposite. Viego has a ton of build diversity and fits in many decks, because you will pretty much always have units dying, and one of Viego's strengths is that he makes your opponent hesitate to kill your units on occasion. Viego is overall very solid. By contrast, Lurk has exactly one deck. If you are not running almost entirely lurk cards, your deck becomes exponentially worse, because lurk only activates when the next card in your deck is a lurk card. This is one of the most unfortunate parts of Pyke's design; he's so cool and interesting as a champion and is translated exceedingly well, but he can only fit in one deck or he essentially becomes a 4 cost 2/3. Really cool video though, glad you're talking about LoR! (Also sorry about this, but the void is not coming. Bandle was the last region.)

Great video! Makes me want to play Runterra again 🤩

This is an insane video about the game man. Dope.

Ah yes, the legend returns :3

Loved this video. Although coming from hearthstone (and I can see where you’re coming from with Virgo and a lack of build diversity) some legendaries or champions shouldn’t fit into multiple things. If one good champion or legendary is good enough in multiple decks, it can make the meta quite repetitive and tedious when you have to go through grinding the ranked mode. The fun I get from card games comes from trying to make something that is clearly a dog turd of an idea into pure gold. Loved the catch up for rune terra tho, keep at it man

Damn I just got back into the game and tried building my first deck (Maokai/Nautilus) and now that I've watched this I wanna play, but I'm working now!!

I've been waiting for this sequel

Bruh I just keep spamming Yasuo with Malphite and Leona. I don’t know why it’s fun, but at least it got me interested in reading all the cards xD

THANK YOU for mentioning the level up animations becoming less and less creative and more having the feel of playing a card of or to a champion rather than the card actually being the champion. It's so much worse and so much less creative, it kind of doesn't matter what the animation plays because the end is always the same. Nautilus, Gangplank, Ashe... These were some of the greatest. Not because of the quality of Animation but of the thematic Implementation into the actual card game going on and making you feel like you play the champion and they themselves are leveling up - as champions and cards.

bricky we need more legends of runeterra from you

Cool video my guy!

I'm a dirty nami zoe abuser and I'm not sorry. I also have max mastery on azir and irelia.

When I started playing it for the first time, I played around a lot with discard cards, combination of jinx and draven with few specific combinations was really fun. Then they added new discard cards along with Sion. Big joy.

God I can't wait for Bricky's video on Arcane.

The release of Pyke was actually what got me back int LoR, now all I need is Jhin inside the game and Im happy enough.

I love lurk deck, pyke is just that fun, depth is also really cool because when your oponent notices whats going on there is this "race" between you two i love it

Viktors level up animation and va is awesome

Polska Gurom - Great video btw i love it

The sequel to a video that inspired me to pick up Lor. Goddamit Bricky

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CCG RN I LOVE IT SO MUCH
