Now i play with PvE, it's terrible. I can't take it anymore. No PVP, no more Runeterra.

Before Spirit Blossoms, this game was incredible. After Spirit Blossoms, this game became Captain Ahab, and they want all the whales they can find. Fix your game riot, it was great before the "patch"

After ending the support for pvp the game degenerated into a bad slay the spire knockoff sporting a league of legends coat of paint and a monetisation system ripped straight from mobile game trash.

Legends of Runeterra is a brilliantly designed online trading card game. Most importantly, LoR innovates game mechanics with a back-and-forth format that objectively make this game more tactical (but maybe less beginner-friendly) than its peers (like Hearthstone). With most actions that a player takes, the opponent has an option to respond, which often results in chains of actions with sometimes incredible comebacks/upsets. The artwork and animations are stellar, and the universe the game takes place in is advantaged by a rich legacy lore due to the producer's other products like League of Legends and Arcane. The game offers an incredible and near-endless PvE experience in addition to PvP: in fact, PvP has sadly taken a back-seat in the last couple years but is by no means dead as matches only take minutes to find. The future is difficult to predict and I hope that PvP will grow more as my heart will always be in PvP gameplay. Perhaps the most admirable quality of this game is its refusal to be "pay-to-win" as free cards and resources are given generously and consistently so that any player looking to play competitively can do so free of financial cost if they desire, at least for PvP. And that is something Hearthstone cannot boast.

Terrible design. The pve is pure trash and waste of time and competitive is so bad and boring I'd have more fun playing digimon. The pve will just insta kill you if you don't win when it wants you to, zero powers or abilities and you will just die. I would never recommend this game. Whoever designed this game should be punished publicly in front of their family and loved ones.

A big problem I had was the card picking. Depending on your starting hand, and how you play it, will the computer "choose" the cards you pick up in your deck, I find in most cases. So at that point, it's only strategic for like, the first 25% of the round, and the next 5 - 7 mins is just the computer stalling to make the game longer, REGARDLESS of whether you are winning or losing. I felt this isn't an ACTUAL card game because you don't get your cards by chance, but the cards you pick up are heavily influenced by the (winning/losing) stance you are in (Losing = **** cards each round, winning = Stronger cards each round), The probability of getting certain cards is sealed depending on whether you are winning or losing, unlike REAL card games, the chance of getting any card is always 1 / Total number of cards.

I would love the game, but the exclamation marks have no description. So I need to have this page open all the time to search what they do: "**** My game is german, so I even need to find them by picture. VERY ANNOYING!!! And so easy to fix put the necessary info, a description of the exclamation mark, into the game to stop to annoy your players!!!

It's just the wish version of Hearthstone. this game is not fun or anything else.

**** game made by riot, made with rng everything except they make you lose on purpose so they get you to spend.Greedy company that is owned by Chinese company that wants your money. Don’t play and never play a riot game, they are legit aids and ****. The only good thing is the lore, gameplay wise it is ****.

Am anfang ganz cool aber missionen werden in die länge gezogen und bis man ein anderen charakter freigeschaltet (den man sich nicht mal aussuchen kann) muss man stunden die selben langweilgen missionen spielen

The strategy you will/will implement is really important. You have to use the cards correctly. some cards even have a first attack bonus, and yes, even you have to use them correctly. Although it's like a side game of LoL swamp, it's better than LoL. By the way, you don't need to have played LoL to play. not p2w. Better than Heartstone in my opinion.

Really good mechanics, stunning visuals. The PVE campaign "Path of Champions" is a lot of fun and a good way to learn. Good job Riot!

jebane rng chłopy myślą po 15 minut czy wstawić pająka 1|1 a potem i tak wygrywa bo na start dostaje do ręki karty z kosztem 6 5 5 i 8

It's a brilliant game. Top 3 TCG. It has a fun game play, complex meta game, and it is very accessible resource-wise. The only con I can think of for this game is that it is not at all beginner friendly, and learning the game overall or all of its intricacies is very time consuming and I understand why it would push a lot of new players away, but it is very well worth it if you are a card game fan who is looking to spend a lot of time and little to no money on a TCG.

Mi juego favorito de cartas, muchas mecánicas, mucha diversidad y siguen añadiendo cosas dia a dia

A solid F2P card game with great presentation and a solid progression. Decent variety and creativity in deck building.

Legends of Runeterra is a really well-designed card game. It is also very f2p!

2/9/2022 Today I played lor, I played LAB mode. A mode that fights with Ai with characters like Yasuo Jinx Jayce to choose from. I have played Yasuo until Victor. Before reaching the Viktor stage, I had to pass a level where it was random, every turret Round start. I'm going to tell you that **** is so unbalanced I'm stuck at level 3 4 times and still haven't passed. I think what 1. Unbalanced is a card that Ai randomly gets and still gets a Key word. Key word is this. It pisses me off a lot. I randomly hit through and the one that hit through is a T-Rex 8/8. 2. The card I have The gad I randomly picked up some important characters. 2.1 Cleared the whole board (this one I'm okay with) but what's not okay is when the main character is dead What character? to defeat the T-rex 8/8 Overwhelm. 2.2 Random Gards Gards that can make me play easier won't say. For example, if I do a Yasuo + Yone combo, these gards won't come out. End. I'm dizzy. I'm totally out of mood playing this LAB. I wasted 1 to 2 hours. Played several rounds, but still did not pass.

This is about as good as a TCC can get, I think. I especially love the story mode, but there are so many things that always bothered me about other TCCs, especially digital ones, that this game does so much better.

its simmilar to tft, but worse. TFT, but not that good. It is a card game .

The game is something between Meh and OK. F2P friendly, nice Graphics/Artwork and regual new content makes it fun for a game now and then. The biggest let down for me are Bugs, Metaplay and communication. Bugs appear on a dayli base and range from grafics glitches into others to cards wont work or you cant place them (even though i encountered gamebreaking bugs very rarely). Bugs stay in the game for very long until they get fixed e.g. Shurima came out 8 Months ago and Azirs voice lane is still cut during the lvl up animation. Communication means, i have the feeling they only hear positiv feedback and ignore negativ feedback/player suggestions, one reason i post my critic here. Imo the Report Side is not comfortable (i was not able to use it for a long time) and i dont like the big chatroom on discord, i feel ignored. There are a lot builds you can play but only for the Memes, not for winning. In ranked, you can see only flavor of the month, the Metagame is very strong in this one. Off-Meta builds are really not fun to play and the few Meta Builds change on every patch. Power Creep is a huge problem in LoR, every patch, the new Cards are way more powerfull then the "older ones", either by having way better Stats/cost ratio or have the same stats but really good keywords. The game makes no secret that it has its focus on fast games, thats why rush decks are Meta and lategame or control decks feel useless. E.g. Seamonsters needs you to throw 25 of your 40 cards away ,literally(!), to have theyr keyword work. The only reason i do sometimes recommend it to some die hard League fans is its because its F2P. EDIT: New expansion is out, tonns of skinns, new power creep no balancing.

Good f2p / nice gameplay. Great game for new players. Feels like modern version of MTG.

Unbalanced, and don't know if the game is more luck than me but it always got a card to beat me just in time all the time, and the cards too op, then riot just add more op card, overall: almost trash

A breath of fresh air, with mechanics from a bunch of other card games, again familiar heroes

Пробовал эту игру. Вот мой опыт. Я играл где-то месяц, делал регулярно каждый день ежедневные задания, копил внутриигровые ресурсы. Потом случилось так, что я тупо забыл зайти в эту игру и сделать ежедневки. Ну или банально не нашел времени. А потом вдруг я задался вопросом. А нафига я захожу в эту игру делать ежедневные задания и трачу от полчаса до нескольких часов в день, если игра мне особо и не нравится, ну не тянет опять играть. И тут я решил притормозить. Начал играть лишь по одной причине - положительные отзывы из-за ее f2p дружелюбности. Возможно, так и есть, я просто в игре слабо разобрался. Ну вот не хочется в нее играть снова и снова. Игровой процесс утомляет. Игра имеет еще и мобильную версию. Я играл только на ПК, но мне кажется, что для смартфона эта игра очень даже ничего. Сложно представить современного человека без смартфона с интернетом, вы можете играть в LOR в любом месте, как вам надо будет убить время, доставать смартфон и запускать эту игру, а ПК использовать для других игр

Gioco ingiocabile, come al solito Riot pensa solo a inserire nel gioco nuove Skin e **** nuovi ma non sa ne bilanciare ne aggiungere nuove carte con criterio. Nel gioco ci sono solo mazzi combo uno più tossico dell'altro non esistono mazzi control e i mazzi aggro fanno fatica contro tutti gli altri.. però riot in compenso ci mette a disposizione nuove skin molto economiche alla modica cifra di 50 euro tanto per rendere il gioco ancora più ridicolo. Do 3 al gioco perchè nel meta esistiono come ho detto solo mazzi combo tossici e poco bilanciati una schifezza totale.

Healthy free to play, no random pack, interesting art style, interraction between card, but still have bug, and unbalance card, like old grand plaza and this time is concurent timelines card, still i believe they will change it just like what they do with grand plaza.

The best card game in the market by far. And trust me on this one, I've played almost all the card games out there.

Good for nothing pay to win antics game created to trick players into buying cards that are way overpowered making it impossible for players to play against and win. A good for nothing pay to win video game that you rather not play unless you have nothing else to play in which I have to say "get a job".

Altro gioco di carte online che tenta di rinfrescare il genere, senza il minimo successo.

Recently the game went through updates, and I came to update the note. We have new current features in the game that made me raise that grade. The game started to get a lot less pay to win with new visual elements the game got a better mechanics too. Competitively the game is ready to be launched in an eSports world, just wait to see new card mechanics and new regions to know if the game remains balanced and with several incredible mechanics that have been released along with the regions, for example, Targon.

As a former Hearthstone & MtG refugee, I am amazed that this game has combined the best elements of each into one amazing card game. The mana system is beautiful and elegantly designed, using a spell mana system that can carry over unused mana into the next turn (only to be used on spells rather than creatures/followers). This game is interactive and competitive, but still casual friendly. It's casual friendly because the business model makes it easy to gain all the cards for FREE within a few months of play (I play casually, took about 4 months). However, the games are intense, with room for so much counterplay, giving you a feeling that each of your choices either win or lose you the game. This can be stressful for some. The best part is that the game has a very, very diverse meta and set of archetypes. There are so many good decks to play (current meta has something like 15 tier 1 decks). Finally, they release cards at least every 2 months, which can really shake up the meta, giving you the diversity you crave in a card game.

Nice card game I spend a lot of time for this buat never feel boring. wowwww

Never thought a card game could be so friendly to users who doesn't want to play. The cards looks amazing and are even better designed. There has been a few problems with balancing, but has always been fixed shortly after. If you are a fan of card games and league of legends then this is a must play. The lowered score is for them selling out their lore friendly cards integrity for k-pop (I'm not kidding)

really horrible, a game has to be fun, not a frustrating job , when everything comes down to winning, investing hours, money and looking at the best decks on the internet. a game made without passion just another business attempt

This game is amazing! Great artwork and endearing themes. The strategy will get you hooked in an instant.

Perfeito em tudo que se propõe a fazer. simplesmente o ápice de história que a Riot Games poderia alcançar algum dia.

Having a fun to play CCG, with great balancing, you can go 100% F2P is really the top selling point for me.

Game is for sure the best card game, who can really make peoplete compete.. 0 rng and a good economy for having new competitive decks.

One critic earlier mention those below and i agree with him mainly on these points. Game is also very cheap to play without huge p2w mechanics as of this time of saying with that being said however, Music and Art is great as with all of Riot Game's work. Mana-efficiency of cards is all over the place. Some cards have OP stats with their mana while some other cards have terrible cost. You have for example, a 7 mana 3/7 that draws you miss fortune but gets removed by one culling strike at 3 mana, On the other hand, you get a 2 mana 5/1 that can challenge a 5 mana unit and even some 6 mana ones. Due to this and slightly powercreep cards coupled with game RNG like nab can be a huge deciding factor on who win and lose. AFK behavior is basically a punishment for the active player, instead of the other way around. Bugs and glitches as far the eye can see. Reporting those bugs and glitches to them only get them to acknowledge it but doesn't fix it. Lackluster missions and points for winning matches. Even worse: the more you play, the less points you'll get over time. It is the first game I have encountered, that punishes active play. And thats their MMR system very nonsensical.

لعبة جميلة قدمت لنا تجربة ممتعة بأسلوب ممتع في نظام اللعب بالبطاقات وسهلة المعرفة والتعلم

I recently started playing Hearthstone until i realised after a short while the matchmaking was completely fixed and no matter what you did climbing ranked is next to impossible unless you spend money, so i uninstalled. Then i started playing LOR and guess what the exact same thing. Gaming has died, the game developers of this world are greedy and corrupt just like the rest of it.

Solid mechanics, nice art style and card balance is fairly ok. Without the 1 major cons it would be a 8/10. HOWEVER the 20 hp that the players have is JUST NOT ENOUGH in my opinion. Why make expensive, decks (why buy or grind), when you can just go "Noxus" / "anything else" but i recommend "Ionia" to just go "face aka. Nexus, and win in sometimes 3, usually 4-6, and at most 8 turns!? Ofc. you can go meta Heimerdinger/Vi or something similar, but again...WHATS THE POINT?! Because of this kinda game breaking thing (easy to fix, yet still isn't: Nexus hp 20 -> 30) its VERY CHEESE, very EASY to dominate casual players and to grind up EVERYTHING in 2 weeks (inc. Bildgewater). So yea after 2 weeks i'm left with: ok, what now? NOTHING really. So w8 for next big updates / uninstall, that's it. PS: If you play anything else, it will take you MONTHS to get everything. Some of my friends stopped playing it all together after 2 weeks because "its too grindy" / "too slow to progress". When I told them and showed them my method, they were like " F OFF!!!". Some came back and finished their grind in a few days, some swore to never touch this game again EVER! In either case, you MIGHT have a solid 2 weeks of fun (by that i mean Strategically and tactically go ONLY Face/Nexus like a totally skilled player. Units live or die? Doesn't matter! Amount of cards in hand and/or deck? Doesn't matter! Mana cost/efficiency? Doesn't matter, only playing with cheap BS units and everything comes on curve 97.50% of the time! Leveling up Hero units? Doesnt matter, if it lives or dies! Strategy, positioning, synergy, tactics? DOESN'T F-ING MATTER!!! FACE FACE FAAAAACE like a total moron. Aaand it actually WORKS XD). Would usually rank it higher for that fact alone, that I had 2 weeks worth of fun, but we are talking about a company that has a lil. bit of che ching ($$$), so nope. League of Legends wanst made to last 2 weeks. I mean COME ON someone rewrite the 2 to a 3 (20 -> 30), if its mixed up! is it THAT HARD? Yes it is :) 3/10 THREE/TEN

Solid and polished enough card battler that does a good amount to distinguish itself from Hearthstone and other CCG/TCG of years past. Not sure if it feels like it came out 3-4 years late, or if it's ultimately better off for having waited for the digital card game fad to die down a bit.

Definitely the best CCG game out there. The economy is really generous and the mana system does not punish you for not developing units on the first and second turn since you have spell mana.

Beautiful card game, stunning effects, great voice over and thematic game play. This reminds me of Duelyst but with less pay to win and less grinding. The downsides are minimal rewards for ranked games and periodical game modes, as well as bugs that freeze my client every time I hop into the game. Hope to be fixed soon!

Another pay to win card game in the same vein as Hearthstone and Gwent. If you like Hearthstone but would rather play a card game set in the League of Legends universe then this game is worth checking out. Be forewarned though, just as with Hearthstone, you'll either have to spend a lot of money up front or spend a copious amount of time playing the game over the coming months to be able to build a competitive deck. Matchmaking is abysmal and deck balance doesn't exist. The game seems generous at first with rewards, but you quickly learn that the rewards aren't the powerful cards you really need to compete. And if you decide you do want to spend money, then I hope you have plenty of cash to burn because it will cost quite a bit to build a competitive deck or two with how the shop is structured. Card balance and mana costs need a lot of tuning, which is surprising since I would have assumed they would have gotten this more balanced before going live. Some champions are absolutely broken, Tryndemere springs to mind. He's insanely powerful and once he's on the field it's a guaranteed win. Doesn't require any set up or intricate card combinations to pull off, just play him and you win 95% of the time. That's not well balanced, and that's just one example. Stay away from this game unless you plan on spending a lot of money, or don't plan on having a competitive deck for several months, because it will take at least that long to build with the reward system currently in place. Riot also employs Bots in ranked play.

Muchas animaciones que hacen alargar la partida, son demasiadas, completamente innecesario.

Hi, this is coming from a League of Legends player and a HearthStone player. This game is not awful as it still has room to improve but right now the game is unhealthy. The balance of the strength of cards is vast. However, the game is still new, so balance patches can still save the game before its too late.

They finally did it. They copied heartstone formula to fix outcome of games. I have seen since last patch (never once before last patch) 90% of my games with stuff coming out that is 1 chance in 100000300403002020. Pathetic. Skill is no longer relevant. Lets aim to make everyone as close as 50% winrate as possible. What a joke. it was pretty obvious this was happening in HS and hard to debate that they could do it after certain cards allowing you to fetch the "perfect" card were **** holy smokes is it even more obvious in this game with 40 card decks. Player tossing 90% of his deck in the first 3 turns but somehow not only started with all the toss cards but managed to not toss any of his combo finishers and good cards. Its astonishing that I had literally 2 copy paste games where the opponent drew exactly the same thing, played the same cards, tossed the same cards and ended the game the same way with the same cards. Astronomical odds of happening....happening in 2 of my last 6 games. lol. You got more chances to get hit by a meteor particle in the left eye and develop an eye infection that attracts a lightning bolt generated by a anormal electro magnetic field due to 2 planes colliding with a fire truck in the sky. disgusting how they all ruin games in the sake of making bad players feel like they are good 50% of the time to drive mtx. This game WAS so good. They ruined it. Not mentionning that you may as well make a net deck now because 99.9% of decks you will play against are the same 3-5 decks.
