Today I’m going to be competing in the Runeterra Open Worlds Qualifier. I’m playing Samira Pantheon, Nasus, and Jax Ornn. Before we get into the gameplay, I want to talk about the best of three format and how I came up with this lineup.
The format is heavily built around Samira, and it’s almost impossible to beat her. I don’t recommend playing against her, and I don’t think it’s possible to win nine out of ten matches against her. Tristana is the next most popular deck, but I’m not a fan of it. I’m looking for decks that can coin flip against Tristana, but also have a good matchup against anti-Tristana decks like Aatrox Vayne, Ekko Jinx, and Kai’sa Garen.
The decks I’m bringing are roughly 50/50 against Tristana, but they are very good against the other decks. I’m banning Samira and Karma Sett, and if my opponent doesn’t have either of those, I’m in good shape. I’m also expecting to see a lot of Tristana, so I’m prepared for that.
That’s it for today. I’m ready to take on the Runeterra Open Worlds Qualifier and see how far I can go. Wish me luck!
