I want to try him too. I’m pretty sure I have literally never seen the card played by an opponent. There’s bound to be SOME way to use him. My first thought would be to pair him with Braum since Braum’s thing is that he wants to survive damage and then making Poros

Made it to 6 wins in Expedition just to lose in the final game, tragic.

I've done about 10 expeditions. I got 7 wins once but I'm averaging like 2-3 wins otherwise. I attribute some of my worst runs to trying to force a gimmick strategy like Teemo, but otherwise I think the mode is just inherently difficult. The low card pool available in the game now means that you can generally make your decks and strategies very consistent, so a lot of how your deck is gonna look comes down to the initial champion/faction selection on your first pick. If the champs offered to you all suck its going to be tough to make a competitive deck.

Levelled up Teemo doubles the shrooms in the opponents deck on nexus strike. Thats pretty much the only thing can build up to. Which is why the deck sucks. Especially since Teemo is just a 1/1 or 2/2 leveled up which is just too easy to kill

Spoiler for pic:

Won my first trial. Lame that you can't access the deck after it's done because I would've liked to share it with you guys. It was a Teemo focused deck with Ashe and Heim that I built for the **** of it and did not expect it to do well at all...

The key was early Teemo draws + mystic shot + Puffcap Peddler.

Combining those + mushroom clouds was giving me a ton of shrooms and when Heim was on the board he would create enough turrets to stall the game out while my shrooms did work. It's basically a ticking time bomb comp, especially since I had Purrsuit of Perfection which is a ridiculous card with this deck because of how many turrets you're summoning. The freljord elements were kinda redundant though so if I was to build it a non-draft format I'd probably drop her.

Thanks for the explanation.. I've always preferred the block/defender system and the spell mana sounds like the coin but better.

Took screenshots before the 7th game and ended up getting the 7th win with this:

My takeaway is that Yasuo isn't that great, but Yone, Windchaser is insane. Elise is also one of the strongest cards in the game, but we all knew that. Inspiring Mentor + Recalls can also get pretty crazy, I made a 6/7 Navori Highwayman that copied himself for two 6/7s lol

You seem to have a lot of cards already.

Just installed and finish the tutorial and stuff.. its pretty cool, still trying to figure out what all the keywords mean and how some of the resolutions work. UI is pretty meh but i like the filter they built an that it saves it for each deck.

I do have a lot of cards, but those particular screenshots were from a successful arena run essentially. If you want to maximize your progress make sure you do your 3 expedition runs allowed per week

I have 2 decks made.. an elise/zed zoo type deck and a garen/braum thing.
