I need 4 more Rock Worms and I can upgrade them to Mythic (okay, I need 3 to upgrade and I run 2 in my setup) and I can hardly wait. This has taken so, so many gold chests.

Anyone have any ideas on an all-blue PVP team? Just some unsynergistic, greatest hits of blue troops?

Lady Andariel and Justice are ok gem creators. Mab works with Justice. Khorvash is great, but Justice would have to be in the first slot, and doesn't buff herself. Wight is the only blue mana soul generator.

Khorvash/ Wight/ Mab/ Andariel? A team of 3 Justice and a Mab?

Wait the all blue can be blue mix? That would be so much easier than straight blue like I thought...

Khorvash/Deep Borer/Apothecary/Celestasia? Everything works towards filling Khorvash and keeping things clear of status effects.

Edit: Kraken banner (2 brown, 1 blue, -1 purple), I think, rather than the +2 blue banner.

Blackhawk actually gave us some nice blue options. I'm using Deck Hand**/Bonnie***/Pirate***/Sharkey***, and the only real downsides are Deck Hand and Bonnie share both mana types (Red/Blue) and no one is higher than Epic so they're kinda weak. That's offset by getting 3 different sets of synergy stat bonuses (Rogue General [+2 Attack, +3 Life, +1 Armor], Human Captain [+1 Armor, +1 Attack, +1 Life], and King of Pirates [+3 Attack, +3 Life, +1 Armor]).

That said, I'm probably going to find a greatest hits team to use instead.

Not bad, but if Khorvash bites it that is a lot of useless focus on Brown gems.

I will keep testing. A big problem is that I would rather have 40 souls than 400 gold. So Wight must be on the team.

Green Slime/Wight/Mab/Celestasia, Lion Banner. Could sub Treant for Slime if you want something steadier.

I assume blue Hero weapons count. You could use the Blue/Yellow weapon (Soul Blade maybe?) that generates souls instead of Wight. Also if you set your class to Warlord and use the Giant perk you would get the 25% bonus on your hero.

I was using Knight Coronet / Queen Ysabelle / Valor / Bronzelock Pistol (Knight Class Hero) earlier. I basically use the same team with Pride Guard subbed in for Valor for PVP anyway.

So I got a ton of chests for free, I assume it was a christmas thing? I got some nice poo poo out of it though. Now my team is all purple tier except the life drain zombie. This Tankbot I got seems especially cool, I'm probably going to try it out for a while.

You just got your first Monday reset lootsplosion. They are from guild tasks, which other goons are spending gold on to complete. As a week goes on you'll be getting more, but since they get more expensive, they also become farther between.

Things I know now that I wish I knew when I first started playing
  • Your gold should go into unlocking all kingdoms and then getting them all to level 3, then to 5, and then to 10 one by one, starting with the +magic kingdoms. Level 5 is fairly cheap to obtain and increases your chance for multi tributes (free gold, keys, glory and gems).

  • Finish the Broken Spire quest first, it unlocks the warlord class for your hero which is really powerful.

  • Save challenges for when you are level 150 and unlock difficulty Warlord IV. The soul rewards scale with difficulty, and you'll get the most out of them when you do them last.

  • If you're looking for a really competitive F2P deck, try Treant/Alchemist/Valkyrie/Banshee. None of those troops are very rare, so you should have them after using your free weekly keys, since you've joined a goon guild.

  • Otherwise, the Goblin you start out with is also a really good troop. Paired with the other fairly easy to obtain Goblin Marauders, they're one of the easiest teams to climb to Tier 1 in PvP with.

  • Save your glory to buy at least 1 of the weekly event glory bundles for the troops and traitstones. Save the rest of your glory for a weekly event with traitstones you need. That, in turn, depends entirely on what troops you like and what legendaries you get. You'll find that out as you go along, don't sweat it.

  • Save your first 500 gems for the +100% gold armor. If you don't have the patience for that, there's also a 50 gem option until you do. It's slightly less optimal, but the option is there. Also, if you want to spend money on the game to earn that armor faster, the $5 15x15 daily gems is the best value. The devs are really nice people and it's not the worst investment.

What's everyone using for a super fast PvP deck that can take on all the highest tier (3rd slot) PvP opponents?

I am currently using Gorgotha***/Giant Spider***/Apothecary***/Bone Dragon*** with the Frozen banner (+2 Blue, +1 Purple, and -1 Red)

It is quick and can kill almost any deck unless I just get a crappy board but I am wanting to see if there is anything quicker and I like having a bunch of decks to change it up.

Gobbo Marauders fully upgraded can be fast, TDS with 3 dragon buddies can be really fast, it really is up to your tastes.

Korvash***/Valkyrie***/Mab***/Mercy***. Usually only takes 4-6 turns to roll through almost anything. Beware stun teams, other than that it's pretty quick.

I've been running:

Wulfgarok***
Mang (Warden w/ Beast Perk)
Forest Guardian***
Fenrir

with the Red/Brown banner and it's very quick. Strip an enemy of armor with Mang, kill it with Wulf's ability and the enemy is down two troops. Fenrir gives +40 HP and Attack to any ally (it would be higher but I don't have him at Mythic) and Guardian generates skills for Wulf to kill the remaining enemies. I haven't lost a 3-star battle yet with this team, and rarely lose a single troop.

But traiting Wulf and Forest Guardian is a bitch so Dragon Soul + 3x Dragons is a cheaper alternative.

I'm thinking that the current event isn't worth the +400 gold, especially since as far as i can tell it doesn't get the multiplier. But I like the idea of these events so I'm doing it anyway.

But I've been running

Green Slime
Justice
Prismatic Orb
Queen Mab


The Justice builds in general are kind of funny how you just hit a threshold board comp and just cast the same spell over and over again until you win. Doesn't work at all as AI though.

I saw some cheeky bastard running defense with the guy who does double true damage to blue mana users, and other guys just trying to feed him mana. Funny.

Okay so now that I'm in couple of questions. Are those guild tasks a weekly thing or do they ever reset to a level where i can help with my none of the gold? Since I'm doing a lot of PvE and have unlocked most of the classes already which one is a good one to focus on? Was thinking priest for the passive regen every turn. Also I pulled a Queen Mab and what's a good build to buold around her besides one that boosts all the blues ever?

Tasks reset every week.

I found out the hard way that Priest is not a good class. The regen only restores lost health; it doesn't give a flat +2 every turn like I thought it would. Warlord is a good early class, while Archer and Sorcerer are the best overall.

Valkyrie and Justice pair well with Mab, along with any troop that benefits from frozen enemies. Snow Guardian is a good match also.

Mechanist is good as well; fully traited, all constructs start with half mana. But in general I don't use the hero.

The store is borked for the new event. But I pulled a portal from spending 5 event keys. The new troll actually looks usable. Maybe something like dark troll, sacrifice or sacrificial priest, portal, maybe giant spider? Portal will probably just be useless and occupy a slot for the extra souls.
