At least with Daria being around I got to experience the joy of my opponent's third Daria actually milling his deck and losing instantly.

They would have won too without the extra draws.

Seraph Haven without Elana is my kind of deck. No pretense of trying to win with minion damage, just a lot of removing my opponent's minions, drawing cards and praying that they aren't running multiple Odins. Still trying to figure out how many Wards I want to run so I can at least try not to get my poo poo kicked in by OTK Roach, but after a lot of matches with Control Blood I'm used to losing to that deck. Otherwise I'm really enjoying how I need to balance between keeping the board clear/keeping my life total high enough and setting up for a potential Turn 9/10 lethal.

From what I've heard there is a good amount of hardcore control decks with 3xOdin at AA rank though, so I'm just going to enjoy this while it lasts.

tfw you run out of resources right when you're about to make your opponent kill themselves

I petrified two seraphs back to back, got a servant of darkness and then went for the concede victory to avoid themis. I dunno if it was just her being rude or just recognizing the glory of honourable combat, but she traded the bird to kill my ward and killed my veteran with the tiger. Left me with 1 hp. I'll take it.

Oh yeah I forgot. I had no reason to play anything so neither of us played any cards at all until an ancient lion on 5 followed by my scrap & remi. Got hit with the first themis and then again nothing until seraph at 8. Funniest game I've played in a while

I don't get what's going on in this. Are you saying that she ran out of resources right before making you kill yourself?

I guess the alternate question is, how do they lose even if they didn't lethal that turn? Or is their deck empty or something?

If you look at the deck on the right side it shows the death card, the next card they draw loses them the game

Yeah, the big change from Hearthstone there is that there is no fatigue from running out of cards, it is just a flat out lose condition. I've won a few games that way I otherwise was probably going to lose.

The first pack was so promising with the first card immediately being my third Albert and then the rest were complete duds

Oh well, now I have a grand total of three sword legendary cards :classiclol:

All the "successful" disco dragons are already inconsistent enough to add anything like Bahamut.

Wyvern cavalier is the other gold that I see often in that deck.

I would give you two (and a Sahaquiel) but I've already sold them, neutrals love me!. To be honest I have already stopped buying RoB packs because the only thing I want from them is 2 Alberts (I don't give a poo poo about playing Daria).

I've been rerolling for a bit. I was really hoping for an account with two of a key legendary, but I think the odds are a bit too low for that. These are the best two accounts I've gotten so far. Are either worth sticking with?

(1) Daria Dimensional Witch, Dark Dragoon Forte, Bahamut, Gabriel, Odin, Bloody Mary, Sea Queen Otohime, Lord Atomy, Imperial Dragoon.
(2) Ancient Elf, Albert Levin Saber, Dark Angel Olivia, Sahaquiel, Tsubaki, Nephthys, Fairy Princess (A), Soul Dealer (A), Beast Dominator, Imperial Dragoon.

Note: (A) means that the card is animated. I don't know whether (like Hearthstone) you get more for liquefying an animated card, so it may not matter.

You do get more for it. And both of them look pretty good, but I'm not the best judge of what to take.

Get the second one, disenchant the animated crap and beast dominator and craft yourself 2 ancient elves or 2 alberts and you're set for aggressive decks with either Forest or Sword. You could also craft a single ancient elf, a single Tia and then buy the Sterling Archer prebuilt deck for all your forest needs.


In other news, since nobody is playing it anymore I switched to aggro blood. Sure, it may not win as much as before but the rage-quits are hilarious. The wraith, Yurius, Veight "sylvan or die" opener against roach has gotten me concedes on turn 3. Also, if the other dude is at 3 hp and you "a worthy opponent" them, you can totally bluff a concede.

I'm going to have to borrow this idea, especially since I play Aggro Blood. Does it still work in AA rank? Friend was complaining that she couldn't climb with it.

It works in AA0 because a good number of people are clowning around. At AA1 and onwards you'll probably lose more often than not against the tryhards.

Thanks for the advice. I followed it, spent :10bux: for the precon and now have a fully built OTK roach deck. Pretty sweet for such a small investment. Now I need to figure out how to play it well.

turn 1-2) Harass with fairies and gobbos
turn 3) Ancient Elf! Oh poo poo!
turn 4-5) Evolve stuff, get 0-cost minions. Brace for Levi impact.
turn 6) Play stuff, pretend you don't have the roaches. Get hit by the Daria train.

Then: Roach -> face
Alternatively: 7) Eve -> ward, 8) Roach -> face


Or just read this handy guide for that scumbag of a deck:
