Welcome to the Jungle (Legends of Runeterra)

Welcome to the Jungle is the first-ever constructed Lab where players can choose between playing their own constructed deck or playing one of the 3 premade decks. This lab was made available in patch 1.10, for 14 days. The lab returned in patch 3.11. It forces the Jungle Lab Board.

Description

Kill jungle camps to get powerful buff spells and crush your opponent! Watch out for more powerful jungle monsters as the game goes on.

This lab is inspired by the jungler role in League of Legends, where junglers need to kill monsters to receive buffs.

• Both players have new special jungle monsters on their board.
  • These followers are Vulnerable, Immobile and cannot be silenced, recalled or replaced.
  • They have a Last Breath effect that creates a fleeting buff for the opponent, who may choose one of three effects.
• After a monster is dead or obliterated, at the start of next round, the next monster is summoned.
  • As the game goes on, new and stronger monsters will appear, with better effects.
  • Units may appear multiple times or be skipped, based on game length.
• At the start of each round, the blocking player receives a fleeting 1 Jungle Invade card.

Jungle Monsters

There are 7 new Jungle units in this lab. Three of them are basic enemies, plus Baron Nashor, the final monster. Each basic enemy also has a variation that can be summoned to your side. They are units without any effects.

The automatically spawned monsters are listed below, in the order of appearing:

• 1 Crimson Raptor (Round 1-3)
• 4 Ancient Krug (Round 4-6)
• 6 Rift Herald (Round 7-9)
• 9 Baron Nashor (Round 10+)

When an auto-spawned monster is killed, the opponent receives a 0-cost spell. The first three monster reward spells are focus, fleeting and give the player a choice from three potential effects. The choices are always the same, with the strength based on the monster (X=1, 2 or 3).

• Grant all allies in your hand and in deck +X| +X
• Get X empty mana gems and draw X.
• Summon a unit and heal your Nexus X+1.

The reward units are listed below.

• 1 Raptor comes from 0 Razor Sharp C
• 1 Krug comes from 0 Gift of Heavy Hands C
• 1 Enraged Herald comes from 0 Eye of the Herald C

9 Baron Nashor's buff is non- fleeting, slow and its effect is fixed.

Forbidden Cards

Some cards are forbidden in this lab. If the cards are used in a deck, they will be replaced by 1 Wrenchbots. However, it is possible to create them, e.g. with 4 Ren Shadowblade or 1 Jailbreak and similar effects.

• 1 Shadow Fiend
• 1 Thrashing Snapper

Notably, after V3.11 it only contains 1-mana units that can immediately kill the first monster with an attack. Spells to kill them are allowed.

Bugs

• When the lab first re-released in V3.11, multi-region and Runeterran cards cause the mode to bug. It was possible to select decks with these cards, however matchmaking would immediately fail.
• This was resolved in V3.15, however cards from The Darkin Saga (Expansion) remained unplayable.

Strategy

• Be careful when you have all 6 non-Jungle units on board. At the start of the next round, the weakest unit will be obliterated and replaced by a new Jungle unit.
• Jungle Monsters can not be recalled, silenced or replaced, but they may be transformed or obliterated to avoid triggering their Last Breath effect. If the unit is not returned by the next round start, another one will be summoned according to the usual rules. This can lead to a player having multiple jungle monsters on the board.
