Jason's Journey to the Top
Although Tournaments are more his thing, MaRu Captain Jason Fleurant went on a mad dash to claim #1 on the LoR Eternal Ladder, later sharing his experience and takeaways on how to do the same.
And then he condensed all his insights in a second article, answering the most important question: What's the best deck to climb the Eternal ladder, and why it's Poppy Ziggs?
LoR Meta Reports and Stats Galore
With two Ladders to keep track of now, our team has been doubly busy!
- Leer did double duty (or cloned himself; current reports are unclear on this matter) to craft not only his classic Monday LoR Meta Report for Standard, but also a full Meta Report for Eternal,
- Yang wasn't going to leave Karma to rot in Standard, so he brought Karma Sett to Eternal in this Deck Guide. And then he reunited with a fan-favorite, one-mana Concurrent Timelines in this detailed Trundle Timelines Deck Guide, exploring the deck's several Eternal versions,
- Herko dug nearly three dozens different decks for Eternal or Standard – a veritable all-you-can-data-crunch deck buffet!
Also, our Eternal Decks Stats page is up and running – along with our LoR Meta Tier Lists for Standard and Eternal, no good deck is left behind.
The MaRu Podcast: MMR Mess, Monetization, and Ladder Carrots
Aikado joins Jae and Bae to discuss the recent meta, the MMR mess, monetization, and what drives people to play.
Wrapping Up
June is as stacked with tournaments as any LoR competitive player could hope for: the MaRu $1K tomorrow, and two Runeterra Opens in the following two weekends.
Best of luck out there, and may you eternally draw your wincons!
