Riftbound Has a Sharking Problem. Playing for the Clock ISN'T It.

Casanova was on the mic for the RQ Singapore round seven feature match, the one everybody spent the week arguing about on Twitter and Reddit, and he explains what it actually looked like from the casting booth. Then the part nobody is saying out loud: playing every resource you have once the round goes to turns is not sharking, it is the correct play, and the real problem is the players who slow the game down for forty minutes to manufacture that clock pressure in the first place.

Before that, the good stuff. Courtney cast her first ever live event in Singapore and Cas breaks down the round five decision that turned the whole booth around. The event itself came down to an Akali deck with a 4 percent day two conversion rate and four pilots in the entire field, and the story behind why he registered it is the best thing to come out of the weekend. Plus Master Yi is still the second most represented legend, a Teemo deck went 7-1 on day one, and the Riot music teasers have everyone convinced Radiance is bringing K/DA and True Damage into Riftbound.
