    Mono-Shurima:
    A deck considered a meme on release
    Each time new cards from Shurima were added, like Soothsayer for example, people were adding them into mono-Shurima, hoping to make the deck at least viable
    It all changed when Xerath came: Azir's rival in lore, but with a level up requirement that didn't need him to be on board, compared to Renekton and Nasus
    People cracked the code: "if I drop the champs on board if they are leveled, then I can flip the Disk". But the idea wasn't so good on practice: making a deck with Azir and Xerath proved to be a challenge: landmarks and units didn't go hand to hand with these 2 champs. BUT if you ever manage to flip the Sun Disk, those 2 champs would work together really well
    It was close, but not close enough. It was still considered a meme deck.
    And then, the patch notes arrive. A new striking card for Shurima, which seems more useful in a deck with Renekton/Nasus than Azir/Xerath, still a good option, Quicksand turning into a more flexible card, but most importantly, Azir leveling up also from landmarks, Xerath's favourite type of cards.
    Together, they raised up from the forgotten pit, just like how Shurima raised from ruins, and decided to deal with the long threat that terrorised LoR: *the yordles*
    None shall stand in their way, and everyone will tell the people what they have seen on the ladder! For they are the ascended of SHURIMA!

    “I love Shurima so much
    I am greeted by the musky scent of sand and earth. Laid upon my eyes is the sun disk itself, half buried under the orange desert. I fiercely try to dig it out, but to no avail. Suddenly, I hear noises below me. The ground shakes as the tremor is felt up my body. It's Rek'sai, and on her back is Pyke. They're here with 12 stacks of lurk and they say that they're going to cave my skull in. They see me trembling, they see the fear in my eyes. Suddenly, I hear a voice from behind me. "You have done well lasting this far. Leave it all up to me now." I turn around. It's Azir. He looks perfect in his golden armor as he summons the last of his followers to fulfill his level up condition. "Renekton has leveled up earlier in the match but perished in order to buy time for the rest of us. I have summoned 12 soldiers thus far. Would you like to join me as the final soldier to resurrect Shurima?" He reaches his hand out for me to grab. I am crying from the glory that has been just bestowed upon me by the God-emperor himself. I hold his hand as the sun disk floats up into the air to form the momument that signifies the revival of the Shurima Empire. Rek'sai and Pyke are striken with fear at the awe of our lord and savior Azir and collapse to the ground. I tell Azir that we won, that victory was achieved this day. He tells me no. "We have not truly won until the traitor Xerath has been annihilated from this world. Until that day arrives, we cannot rest easily." Suddenly, Xerath appears from behind the rocks. "Xerath!" Azir screams out in fury. Xerath calmly retorts, "Wait, I am not here today to fight, Azir. Look." Xerath points to a sandstorm off in the distance. Upon closer inspection, the sandstorm is revealed to be yordles, creating dust as they charge through the desert. "We may have been mortal enemies for thousands of years, but if we do not join forces at this moment, these abominable creatures will destroy all of us." Azir replies, "I will not allow my pride to overshadow my reasoning once more. I shall take your hand today for the betterment of Shurima's future." Azir and Xerath make out in their ascended forms. I am crying and blushing and screaming from this revelation. My eyes are covered as this is too lewd and if China sees two men kissing in their game they'll smite it out of existence. Rito is truly the greatest video game company of all time.
    And then I wake up from my dream and realize I lost 8 times in a row in ranked last night while trying to play mono-shurima. Literally fuck this game.”
    wise words.

When Azir tried to Ascend jealous Xerath tried stealing the power which ultimately buried the whole empire in the sand. Azir millenia later reacts to Sivir's blood which is one of his direct descendants and awakens again trying to raise his empire once more.

    So anyone looking for a counter to the most popular deck: fast combo decks which are disrupted by stuns or removal, both of which monoshurima does not have:
    Mono-RekSai: they cannot stun reksai and even if they quicksand it is quite easy to overbuff her by 4 and still flip her.

      On one hand yes just like bandle tree and star spring mono shurima suffers from the fact that landmarks are very poorly designed and just cannot exist as such an important focus point without being toxic.
      On the other hand at least mono shurima isn’t an aggro deck, that’s also a mid range deck, that’s also a late game control deck, that also never runs out of steam… shurima actually has weaknesses, flipping the sun disk doesn’t immediately get out out of jail if your opponent has lethal your still prob screwed.

    Hello mogwai c: I am not much of a grat deck builder but i have a neat deck idea that i want to share with you. The Idea is to combine Udyr with Taric... wait hear me out!! While taric can copy spells by targeting an ally you can grant different buffs(with stace swap) to your allies. A leveled up udyr benefits from the extra casted stace swap as well. I tried to get this deck to work and it is really fun. I tested it with support cards like mountain sojourners and mentor of the stones and other Gem giving cards so that udyr could go very big very fast. I hope that you may find this idea interesting enough to try it. Love your videos and keep up the good work

    I think the biggest advantage of this archetype is the lack of landmark interaction.
    Xerath actually was very strong before and it sometimes was impossible to play a unit into the Whirling sands.
    Desert Naturalist, Scorched Earth and Aftershock will become 3 ofs again, just like in the Grand Plaza times.
    Would like to see Volibear making it into the game with landmark disruption.

    • @javierruiz4733
      @javierruiz4733 2 роки тому +1

      Another problem is that even if you run landmark interaction like scorched earth as soon as the opponent grants the sun disk spellshild there is nothing to do. Unless pay 6 mana to destroy something they got for free. But again is absurd that by turn 6 both champions levels up.

    You really should do everything to keep Ziggs off the board in a Taliah/Ziggs deck, and DEFINITELY don't let them Hourglass Ziggs. Their win condition is based almost entirely around Ziggs, specifically getting two of him on the board. It was the only game you played where I felt your choices were sub-optimal.
    I don't think this deck is overpowered. It has MASSIVE flaws that can be exploited, not the least of which is that its removal is not amazing, to say the least.

    @jetskiiify 2 роки тому

    Regarding the lore, both champions hate each other immensely. Xerath was Azir's personal buttler, but his people were enslaved by Shurima who was at that time led by Azir. Azir looked like he ignored most of Xerath's requests of abolishing slavery. But in reality, Azir was so egocentric that he believed that he and only himself after being ascended would be able to change Shurima. So he kept Xerath in the dark about his plans, and meanwhile, Xerath tired of everything began planning on his own on how to change everything.
    Azir's ascension ceremony happens, and when he was going to step into the Sun Disc's light to become ascended, Xerath pushed him away and took the power of ascension on his own becoming an entity of pure arcane energy. This crumbled Shurima and destroyed it, partially killing Azir and ending the civilization in a single day. Renekton sealed Xerath away and went mad as he held Xerath in prison for centuries. Nasus exiled himself to keep a record of all the knowledge in his massive libraries. And everything went crazy as others ascended who have huge PTSD from fighting the void in Icathia (Zilian's lore), now wanted to rule over the world as they had huge godlike powers.
    Centuries later Sivir and Cassiopeia go treasure hunting in the ruins of Shurima. Sivir's weapon turns out to be an ancient relic to open a secret vault. There Cassiopeia betrays Sivir but is then saved by the spirit of Azir. And after this act of pure generosity from Azir, the sun-disc comes back to life and finishes Azir's ascension and restores everything. This opens Xerath's tomb, Renekton comes out all crazy, and Azir is still mad at Xerath for what happened. He was planning to destroy a village where Xerath came from, and if it wasn't for a random kid calming him down he was going to do it.
    TLDR, it's a bit funny that two champions that utterly hate each other now work amazingly together to restore the thing that they shattered.

    Everyone is saying it's a "very good" deck.... It's honestly overtuned at this point. I'm sure lots of people will say, "oh, mono shurima is getting it's time in the spotlight now." We've always had issues throughout metas where a deck just wins at a certain point or turn. Mono Shurima is now no different, it wins at turn 6-7 without fail. It's too formulaic now with no thought needed. With the huge problem of landmark interaction in this game, it's just too good at this point. I won't say I know how to tweak it, maybe have Xerath need more landmark activations to level up? It's definitely too strong at this point.
