We’ve once more returned to the lands of Runeterra. And this time, the power of Kpop can no longer protect us.
But that’s okay because we have our own form of protection: Barriers. By shielding our units, we can force some uncomfortable attacks and blocks to keep up the pressure.
As always, credit to Mobalytics for compiling the top deck lists, like the ones we use here.

In concept, the deck is simple. We play high value units like Fiora and Rivershaper, that can accumulate card advantage through favorable trades or card draw.
And using creatures like Shen, or burst spells like Riposte and Spirit’s Refuge, to keep them safe by providing them barriers to survive combat. With Fiora, this will bring her closer to her alternate win condition. Meanwhile, Rivershaper will draw us a card to replace the combat trick we used to protect him.
If they keep a defensive posture, or force us into a painful block, we have fight spells like Single Combat and Concentrated Strike to take care of the units involved before they deal serious damage.
The trick is to avoid overtaxing our mana and make sure we always keep up enough to have some of our tricks at the ready. If we do, we can keep our opponent off balance by tricking them into making moves that look safe at first glance.
It’s a deck that allows the pilot to play reactively, which usually bodes well for the odds of success.
