... on my understanding of the deck and how to use my tools in any matchup. Genuinely hit flow state after getting cooked by Vik R5. Vendetta giving the bug new cards makes him feel like a sleeper pick in the format, unless vs rengar/yi. Gonna lock in on the bug going forward.
Played at the 710 person NRG Milwaukee Riftbound event and went 7-3 with the bug
About halfway through the event something clicked in my understanding of the deck
3 way tie for 2nd best of Kha'Zix at the event
Was my first big event so was unsure of my skill going into it

1/
push for game in mid to late game. Will be cutting Tail-Cloaked Matriarch. Only felt relevant 1 time all day and I'd rather play a fiora/last rites/illaoi in the main for more tools rather than a revive. Playing with no expectations after round 2 allowed me to hit another level
@Rob1tt0_thatsme Lillia, Aurora Poppy, Renata
Against Lillia yellow ambessa helped me break big battle fields in mid game to set up for game winning holds. Orange ambessa when empowered is a problem for Aurora and any blue deck
Any hold deck yellow ambessa shines and can break with 1 buff spell
First skirmish of vendetta and took 1st playing Ambessa for the first time. Wanted to go with a more aggressive ambush strategy to speed up games
Undefeated run, every match went to game 3
Legend feels solid and plays like a mixture of Kha’Zix and Irelia
@RyanM1randa Against matchups like lillia and reksai. Anything that’s aggressive with little units, or holds with ~10 might. Helps break battlefields before any buff spells or ambush units.
Faefolk felt like a 2 drop kill spell in a unit would always trade so probably will be swapping to honest broker
Star spring felt good with being able to set up double conquers on turn 2
Legion Marauder got me points turn 1 going 2nd frequently
I played an yellow Ambessa
