Absolutely despised it, thought it was just pointless since progress doesn't really carry over from match to match, so what's the point?
Eventually gave it a go back in 2011 and never got rid of it. Took me a while to get into it too, I'd only play because of my brother and with friends on teamspeak but eventually got reeeeally into it.
These days I don't have time, or at least don't want to invest it, for rankeds or even SR (5x5) so I mostly play ARAMs and some of the riot forge games (LOTRK, song of nunu).
Looking forward for the mmo, really love the universe and I loved the TV show too.
Yeah, the Runeterra universe is awesome! I played LoR for two years, basically for the lore and the art card. I burnt out on the game, but I still miss those aspects.
The release of Arcane was awesome as well, with all kinds of different media experiences. Looking forward to season two (November 2024 D: ).
Yeah I was really looking forward for LoR being a big hearthstone fan. However the way the turns work just never clicked with me. My brother on the other hand completely abandoned HS and only plays LoR now.
The cards and the effects are amazing though, it's one of those games I feel sad I don't like it hahaha
Also very hyped for arcane season 2. A bit frustrating that it will take so long but, if it means it's as high quality as the first one them I'm all for it.
