In love with Nemeton

#21

as player 2?
just note that i usually get something to play as turn 1.
the times i got nothing i usually got a 3 drop or a combo in hand.

I managed to get to rank 3 last season with this even though it’s obviously not fully optimized but there are some cards i liked, like mark of solitude, which is good for the “suprise motherfucker” effect on a crystal wisp, on a gravity well when already near a general or a jax spawn…You could probably remove that for luminous charge and there are some repleacable cards…

Anyway I’ve encountered powinthekissa toying around with a nemeton list and one thing i noticed could be vital to complete the trial is playing defensively… He always played kron as a ranged minion basically, to keep him and the token safe…and gotta say it works.

I’m trying heal ziran for this season but will probably give nemeton a shot again the next or when i reach S rank this one :S

With that few 2 drops, that’s insanely lucky.

Thanks for the list. How’s Pandora working out for you? It never occurred to me that it would ever see play.

tell you what you’re right but the way i play it i finish the trail late game in about 3 turns for sure.
drop jax at 6, clear at 7, embla on 8 - you got nemeton.
but you will not always get the damage needed to proc lethal or your tokens are not enough even after embla - in that case - wake.

sometimes they remove your embla with emp, then you drop nemeton and the game is back to even plain field.

there’s more then one way to play this trail, mine is mostly bulletproof.

I gotta say I almost always prefer a BBS Jax over pandora, but she’s very good in some matchups, against the allmighty magmar you got 2 minions immune to plasma storm, heal ziran might have a hard time dealing with her and she is in general resistant to all non-hard removal and poops a minion for your next turn. If you got an embla on your hand and play a pandora, chance are high that next turn you complete the trial, but obviously you either needed to ramp or get alive to the 8 mana mark :smiley: and for my personal experience this deck suffer the early pressure cause the opponent will have fatty minions and you are “stuck” with tokens or expendable bears

I see. Thanks for the advice. Plasma Storm kills Pandora though.

I have not noticed this from the good players and if they do I throughly question their choices.

But he said he preferred BBS Jax over Pandora? Both are 7 mana. Well, I guess both dies to Plasma Storm. Nerf Magmar.

i enjoy seeing the questions raised, and the term good player pop up when most of them lost to the list that crammed wake in, comes to show you that that is really a matter of playstyle and personal choice.

jax and pandora fills the same role, but plays different, play the one that fits you.

Yeah sorry, what i meant is that in general i prefer jaxi, but on some matchup pandora might be better. Ofc vs magmar you’d play pandora with bbs but have to wait the 8 mana mark
