why is frostbite burst again?

Submitted 4 years ago by

maybe a little rant here but seriously why are there so many thigns i simply cant react even with a deny in hand.

I know that every Burst Spell is not reactable but why is it every buff AND (so many) frostbite spells

 

Should that be a thing?

my rant is allready over again tbh (thank god it takes me usually 10-15 sec) but i still think there are a good amount of spells that shouldnt be burst

is there anything riot said they would at least keep an eye on?

 

And what are your thoughts?

xoxo

    Be careful what you wish for. Frostbite being burst means that you actually CAN react to it for a lot of decks. Because it is burst, you can attack-buff your unit in combat after it has been frostbitten. If frostbite spells were fast and played first thing in combat, they would resolve last, meaning your unit would have 0 power no matter what.

    Agreed. Frostbite cards not being Burst would mean they would be countered by Deny, but not by the dozen cards that already counter them.

    Always consider that spells resolve from left to right, in the order they're placed on the "bar" in the mid screen.

    It's one of the few situations where a physical card game would actually be clearer in some ways. A 'stack' in other card games is pretty clear in execution - you work down from the top. Runeterra has essentially the same stack, but because it'd be more difficult to see the lower cards in a digital format you wind up with a left-to-right display as well, which is marginally less intuitive.

    I know that every Burst Spell is not react-able, but why is it every buff and so many frostbite spells burst speed?

    There are only 3 out of 6 frostbite spells that are burst. The rest are slow.

    This thread is over two months old and back then OP already got a satisfactory answer, as said by himself.

    Why, pray tell, are you bumping this?
