I have a question regarding revealing hidden units like Evelynn or Windsinger. My understanding was that if I have a unit at a bf and a hidden unit, if my other unit dies, I’m allowed to reveal the hidden one and not lose control of the bf. Today in a game at my local, my opponent moved in with a unit equipped with Forgefire Cape. I had enough might to kill it but all my units also died in the combat. I wanted to reveal my Evelynn afterward to keep the bf, but my opponent said I can’t do that and my Evelynn also dies during combat because of Forgefire Cape.

So when am I allowed to keep a bf like this with a hidden unit? Is it only if my other units die to spells and abilities and not during a combat showdown?

I’m honestly kinda lost. I want to fall in love with a legend and stick to it. I started by playing Jinx, then in Spiritforged I played a bit of Ezreal, Annie, and Lucian, and now I’m thinking of building either a Vex, LB, or Pyke deck. Here are some info:

• I want a very fast-paced deck, or something that’s very good at taxing the opponent and slowing their tempo.
• I love to play tricks on my opponent lol. Lots of spells that can be used in different ways, lots of hidden cards, etc.
• I’m not very experienced in TCGs so bonus points if it’s an easy deck to play.
• Origins supply was super limited in the country I currently live in, and bc of custom regulations i can’t buy anything from outside the country. So if there’s a deck with the minimum amount of Origins cards it’s better.
• I have proving grounds.
• I’m loving Ambush mechanic in this set.
• The legends I see most in my local are: Irelia, Kai’Sa, LB, and Azir. So preferably something that can go against them and not get stomped.

I had the most fun playing with a stupid purple Annie deck that I made back in Spiritforged that worked solely around moving enemy units back to base and scoring with purple Yasuo.
I tried Soreiha’s Ezreal deck but I wasn’t experienced enough to make it work.
Prismaticismism’s Annie deck looks fun to play but I lack some of the crucial cards (namely Kai’Sa that is in literally every fury deck and Rek’Sai).

Sorry this is a bit too long, but I’m tired of wasting money buying cards I never play just bc MAYBE some day I will build a deck that uses that card and meanwhile not enjoying the deck I’m currently playing.

Thank you so much to anyone who takes the time to help me out 🙏🏽
