Jayce list I top 8ed with in Orlando. Conceded to my top eight opponent since they didn’t have the qualification. Deck is fine but you’re gambling with your matches since the Kennen matchup is almost unwinnable. Prob on Riven or Kaisa for Stuttgart.

This. It looks awful, yes, but focusing, making ~10 actions each turn, can make people do mistakes, even if they want to play 100% fair, usually in a 11-13 round event, at least 2 of my opponent's does similar or worse stuff, yet I just call it out, usually they are not cheating
Some of you people are so dumb bro Zapdos just paid like 8 and 2 power for his 6/1 Jayce. Players make MISTAKES on a stream. That is not CHEATING If Eric was DQd only for the shovel thing that is absolutely moronic. If he did something else sure shoot him into the sun IDC.

Shit posting maximum, but making sense at the same time, hats off JOHN RIFTBOUND
Ok team long Riven lost because not enough Riven posting Many people ask me why I am so critical of specifically the current meta even if other metas have had similarly or more egregious decks based on event winrates. The stand out reason I hate the current format so much is that Riven simply does not play the game. Irelia on Abandoned Hall or Leblanc on Hillock or whatever other broken combinations can get really absurd might totals, but they are still fundamentally contesting a battlefield. They do it far too well in many scenarios compared to the average deck, but you are still playing the game. Riven on Star Spring and Dais literally just does not play the game. There are two fields that allow Riven to end every single turn with a double conquer and every unit in base. It is actually pathetic that we can see top 8 games at a Showdown end with legitimately ZERO combats. Here's the ban text for Reavers Row: "The first is Reaver’s Row, which promotes a noninteractive pattern (especially if both players bring it in the same game) - rather than have meaningful showdowns and interactions between players or situations where a player tries to hold, players will just retreat." I am flabbergasted that Riven is being allowed to exist as is with Dais and ESPECIALLY Star Spring. Every justification for banning Reavers applies to Star Spring. Star Spring also enabled 8-0 games from Faefolk decks this weekend, absurd Leblanc shenanigans, and the master yi first mate classic where he auto wins turn 2. Not emergency banning Star Spring before Stuttgart is extremely silly because it will almost certainly be banned afterwards. The Vegas meta will be entirely different, but have the same worlds qualification! The fact Riven never has to actually care about holding enables EXTREMELY auto pilot gameplay. Im not exaggerating when I say I believe it is the easiest deck in the game to competitive results on by FAR. there is almost zero concept of balancing board development and combat tricks. Almost every other deck in the game has to worry about the fundamental balancing of board development and spells. Riven just shits out units, sends them all to base, draws 10 cards, and automatically beats 90% of decks in the game. At this point Stuttgart is a lost cause. The tournament will feature a plethora of Kennen and Riven matches with close to zero combats per game and extensive cost cheating from Rhasa/Nocturne and Heron. Whoever plays solitaire better wins. Amazing! I'm begging Riot to do the right thing and be liberal with bans post Stuttgart. Riftbound should be about CONTESTING BATTLEFIELDS. Get rid of the absurd cards that prevent this and/or enable decks that ignore this. Going forward, don't be scared to make the right changes for the game. Making game play not miserable to play and watch should be the top priority. Just rip bans and adjust instead of holding yourselves to silly standards just because you tweeted you would THANK YOU!

Went 8-3 in Orlando, the last stop before RC Stuttgart to practice, sadly bubbled out from the money with the 39th place, however my teammates and friends went on an insane run, with @TheFrostyPage getting to TOP CUT with an insanely strong Kai'sa deck.

Kennen beats Riven, I would be up for a money match if I had any xD
I started doing this thing where if someone tells me “x deck beats Riven” I ask them to play a match. The percent of twitter ppl that don’t reply or reply with a reason they can’t play is currently 100% 💀

I am playing AP Kai'Sa for RC Stuttgart. We use Void Seeker to keep up in cards against Riven, and we can hit Kennen CC. We use Blue Kai'Sa to re-use Voidseeker when we are at 4+ points. We have Bellows Breath in the sideboard because Viktor goes too wide. Heisho beats Deflect.

It is good that Jarvan IV has a power cost. He is CLEARLY more powerful than Riven Broken Blade. Dave Guskin obviously did not want Jarvan TERRORIZING the Rift with no power cost. Wisely, he saved that for Riven Broken Blade, a very mediocre 4 drop. Thank you Dave!

On behalf of NBC Eric RE: stream game error with Shovel off of Trifarian Captain. As soon as we were made aware of the error we approached the judge table, advised them of the situation & fully complied with the ensuing investigation. The judge staff found it was in fact an error, and no penalties were issued. The erroneous free shovel had no impact in the outcome of the game. CC @CoolStuffInc
