Have you settled into the Legends of Runeterra expansion "Call of the Mountain"? Have you found your favorite deck yet? If not, we have some of the top tier decks for the new expansion ready for you!

In card games, a new expansion brings many new cards and therefore new possibilities for new decks that shift the meat. You're often inundated with information, new mechanics, and champions so losing track of what's going on can happen. That's why we've put together a list of the best meta-decks for Legends of Runeterra: Call of the Mountain. Let's see what Targon has changed - shall we?

1. Swain and Twisted Fate Mid Range

This deck is still one of the best decks in the meta when it comes to keeping aggro decks under control. You have various counters and removals, and you can plunder the opponent's deck at will. Plus, you can keep up with or even counter some new decks in the meta. Use this deck code below to import the decklist!

Then the Ramp Deck with Trundle and Aurelion Sol is right for you! During the "mulligan" phase, you should always look for ways to get a hand with mana.

With this deck, you want to make sure that Sejuani freezes the opponent's board after turn 6 for every single turn of the game. This is a great midrange deck with a combo-esque finish and it is not too difficult to play. You want to get your Sejuani up as fast as possible and you rarely have to make any difficult decisions.
