It is susceptible to hard control and early aggro, though. The multi-region deck is a very good mid-range aggro deck that can pivot between pure aggro and Bandle Tree shenanigans. Within a few turns I had won with Bandle Tree, since I already summoned followers from about five regions before it was played. This gave Bandle Tree spellshield, making it even harder to kill. I played a game where Bandle Tree summoned Soothsayer from Shurima. If the opponent can’t stop Bandle Tree, they are essentially on a timer before they inevitably lose. Bandle Tree will also summon a follower from a different region once per turn. This deck also uses Bandle Tree, in which, if you play cards from all 10 regions, you automatically win the game. Yordle Smith seems very low-key on the surface, but can be a powerful tempo swing against the opponent. Using Yordle Ranger to start a scout attack for a quick boost, and then attacking normally, is a very simple but effective strategy. She can swarm the board with followers fairly fast, and power them up at the same time. Next up are multi-region cards, which use the new champion, Tristana. I am definitely building this deck to play on the ranked leaderboards once the set drops. They end up with more mushrooms and traps than cards in their deck. If such a deck can put up its defense and survive the early turns, it creates an incredibly difficult position for your opponent to come back from. During a game, one card my opponent drew was a trap, which caused six points of damage to them and six points of damage to their followers. In the late game I was able to do 30 damage worth of burn, and nuke the opponent’s board all at once. This is a trend we noticed in a lot of the early Beyond the Bandlewood gameplay: many new champions pair very well with older ones.Ĭorina, Mastermind is the standout card of the deck, as she lets you activate all of the traps on the top five cards of your opponent’s deck at once. Caitlyn has Flashbang traps, which function similarly, but instead do two points of damage to any follower on the opponent’s board when drawn. When your opponent draws a card with a mushroom on it, they lose a life. Teemo has been around since set one, but, in case you don’t know, he revolves around planting poisonous mushrooms in your opponent’s deck. This deck utilizes Teemo and the new champion Caitlyn. We got to play three games with every deck, and what follows are our early gameplay impressions of each of the new archetypes.įirst up is my personal favorite new deck: traps. This covered all nine of the new champions, as some fit well together in the same deck. Said architypes included traps, multi-region, landmark destruction, pranks, discard, and darkness. During this time we were provided codes to make decks for each of the new archetypes in the set. After our discussion with James Hata and Alexzandros Lee from Riot Games, we got to spend almost three hours with Beyond the Bandlewood in playtesting. The set contains nine new champions, two new keywords, and 126 new cards in total. Yesterday, we provided a sneak peek at the next set for Legends of Runeterra, Beyond the Bandlewood.
