Journey to the Peak - Runeterra Labs

The Rules

Quote From Lab Description

Battle your Way to Targon's peak with Leona or Diana. Complete your journey for a special reward!

- Face three enemies with their own unique abilities.

- Each game will start with one additional mana gem, and you'll have higher nexus health for the final showdown.

- Customize your deck by drafting reinforcements after each game.

- Don't worry about running out of cards – the game will go on until your nexus health hits 0!

Initial Choices

When beginning a new run, you'll need to choose between Leona and Diana as your starting champion. This choice will determine your starting deck and affect which icon reward you'll get after the run.

After picking your champion, you'll get to pick a special ability from three alternatives, unique for both champions. For Leona the choices are

• Invigorating Light: Each round, the first time you activate Daybreak, Rally.
• Radiant Shelter: Round Start: Give your Weakest ally Barrier and +2/+0 this round.
• Sunrise, Sunset: Whenever you gain the attack token, grant allies +1/+0. When you start a round without the attack token, give allies Tough this round.

For Diana, you'll get to pick between

• Pale Moon: Each round, the first unit you play this round refills its mana cost.
• Harness the Heavens: Each round, the first time you activate Nightfall, create a random Celestial in hand with cost equal to your maximum mana.
• Mystic Moon: When you activate Nightfall, restore your spell mana, and if it's the first activation this round, draw a card.

You'll need to beat three AI bosses to get the icon reward. If you lose a match, you'll get to try again!
