Actually I'm fine with it. I'm doing a move deck at the moment that puts a few cards out with Multiple Man and other movers and then just sees what's what.

Sunspot is doing a lot of work. Nothing better than winning a game by playing no cards on 6 and faking your opponent out

Edit: The fact you bet cubes makes this game so great. It incentivises knowing what your opponent is going to do, which is already something you should be doing. It just feels real good

So I've finally broken into Pool 3, but after getting my first card from it I've noticed that all the card draws have been replaced with collection caches. Are cards just not guaranteed at certain levels anymore or? If so this kind of sucks rear end

I didn't realize the game was locked to 30fps on mobile and there was an option for 60fps. The game looks *so* much better at 60.

They are not. Caches, and later Reserves, give rewards as follows:



Ignore the data on Season Caches - they've been nerfed massively in the last two seasons, but Second Dinner refuse to admit it. So don't get too attached to the game if you live in the EU, as the game will be banned there in the next few months.

The odds of getting a variant or avatar in a Reserve have also been dropped by 5% each since this image was made, and you now have a 10% chance of getting a title. Needless to say this is about as popular as a fart in a spacesuit.

I believe each cache has a 50% chance of a new card, and there's also a pity timer (you will get one at least every 6 caches, or one in at least every 9 reserves).

HA! HA! NICE! WHAT A TOOL!
I asked about this deck earlier but made a change or two and am happy woth it now. Its my CL330 rank 60 deck and it feels very strong, tons of wins that dont feel like skill:

Nova
Sentinel
Cable
Lizard
Morph
Mr Sinister
Mr Fantastic
Killmonger
Enchantress
White Queen
Devil Dinosaur
Klaw

Pool 1/2 six drops arent very good without synergy, Klaw is usually better than any of them (yes magneto and dr doom would be better but i doubt this deck works in pool3). Am interested in Shang Chi if I finally pull him. No moon girls allowed in this deck hand is too big. I dont like collector.

This is the deck I'm running him in. Typically try to play Storm on turn 3 and then follow her up with Drax at the same location if I think I can win it. If I don't think I can win it and expect the opponent to overcommit to the flooded location I'll drop Spider-Man on a different location and then next turn lock it down with X (or play Gamora in the open one). Nova/Killmonger/Wave are the tech slots I'm not as sure about

I played against someone who did a Storm followed by Juggernaut combo which seems a pretty good way to claim a lane.

If you're below rank 50 you'll go back to rank 10. If you're above rank 100 you'll go to rank 70. Anywhere between, you'll lose 30 ranks then drop the units. So everyone ranks 60-69 will drop to 30, for example.

For anyone wondering how rewards will work: you will get all the rewards up to your current rank after you play 10 games in the new season.

Yes. Iron Fist sets up a delayed effect, it's not dependent on him being in play.

I feel like the way retreating works is super weird. If an enemy retreats it feels lovely. Especially if I snap on turn 6, the enemy retreating means I basically played and won a whole game and got basically nothing out of it.

If nobody snaps until turn 6 then either you both had nothing, and you're lucky to walk away with a W,

Or someone isn't snapping early enough.

Ok, I figured it was something like that because of the "win 10 games" message. I made it to 70 but I'm definitely not gonna make it to 80 with the time left.

Just barely into Pool 2 but I got a couple of cards I really like, mainly Vision and Cloak.

That sounds like a lovely snap or a good bluff. Snapping on 6 should happen in basically just 3 cases: They snapped and you're all in, You're bluffing and in an okay to good spot and want to make sure you get the 1 cube, or the game is going to 7 turns.
E: Remember snapping is more like poker hand of raising the bet. Its not "lol I win, give me more" bc in that case every op should be retreating.

That part of the front page hasn't been updated in a while. For most of the game's life Bluestacks was the only way to play natively - if "Natively" is the right way to describe the Android client in a shell.
