A deck without Rhamphyre.. haven't seen that in a long time :D very nice video!

[@viper_ilv]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@joffreyjones4213]

Bro ty for explaining all this. I moved up almost 400 rating w this deck!

[@jagemetal]

i try this deck but is complicated!! greate video!!

[@viper_ilv]

Good luck!

[@zaleth]

Great vid as always Viper!

[@viper_ilv]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@GanglyTFT]

Do you have a very basic turn by turn breakdown of this team? Obviously it depends, but it would be nice to know what to default to each turn. Especially as a new player.

[@viper_ilv]

I did go over that for both options during the video, check around 7min onwards.

[@GanglyTFT]

Ty, I sorry I thought you only had it for the line, not the second. Appreciate it. Do you bond Ranger to Jotun?

[@filo2246]

deck import is not working for me, it only loads up arena site

[@filo2246]

prolly cuz they moved the deckbuilders location

[@viper_ilv]

yeah, the new website changed all the links, I forgot to update the ones in the videos.

[@AdamHerwin]

i feel like march is going to be quite a boring month with no hot fix before the new game mode. only so many dust rev mirror matches you can play before you get bored. Atleast we will have a rating wipe soon.

[@viper_ilv]

I have couple more playable teams that aren’t getting used yet to share over the next weeks, maybe that can make it a bit more fun. But yeah I personally can’t be asked to play dust revenant mirror, too low skill just annoys me.

[@user-cs8fb3jr4r]

What's funny is that you say you play against everyone except Rempfayer on verdants and then in the video you show how you respond with dust to dust.

[@viper_ilv]

Yeah, because if your opponent plays rhamphyre, you don´t want to play verdant anymore. If the enemy is rhamphyre/dust revenant, playing dust revenant is a mirror or winning and if your opponent doesn´t swap the same turn you do, you are in a winning position, because if they ever swap rhampyhre trying to "predict" you going verdant, they are loosing to dust revenant and are also loosing mirror now cause down mastery points.
