A card with an ongoing effect along the lines of 'your negative power cards count as positive instead' would be interesting.

That always cracks me up. You could have gotten two cubes and now your dumbass gets one.

I admit to doing it sometimes as well because I’m excited I’ve pulled something off and hit it without thinking.

Bluffing how? It was turn 6 and the opponents cards were already played to block OP from playing anywhere making it an easy retreat to lose 1 vs up to 4 cubes is how I’m reading the post

Yeah, I just retreated and lost 1. I was marginally winning two of the lanes and I'd probably would have retreated anyway, but he insta-snapped.

Yeah I was joking.

Still, the few times I've pulled a successful bluff was when the opponent was similarly blocked from playing, but I didn't actually have enough power in hand to overcome their lead on the board.

I bought Spiderman with my last set of pre-Zabu tokens and I've enjoyed him a lot, but I really enjoy lane control as an archetype.

The wording on it is so terrible though. I definitely thought that if you played a card there, destroying it (i.e. w/ carnage or deathlok) would give you +2 energy.

What the HELL? That's my cutting board.

So, I didn't notice the new location until I started playing tonight. First game I had Dream Zone, Death's Domain and Altar. My opponent retreated after round 4 when I dropped Spidy on the Dream Zone. Their using Jubilee on Altar and getting Human Torch with no deaths had nothing to do with it, I'm sure.

I did find a bug when trying to create a Death deck, it won't let me add my variants to the deck, only stock cards. I did check to see if I could swap the variant in after filling the deck, still no go. Oh well, that Nova variant can stay in it's sealed pack and stay in mint condition.

I managed to put in the variants by going to base and switching to them using the menu for variants from there.

Man I am done with this loving game. They need to fix the balance. I keep getting absolutely hosed by decks where they have cards I don't have, even pool 3 ones. It's really frustrating. I have been languishing in the 40s now for a while and can't progress further. I had to uninstall it from my phone out of worry I would just ninja star it into the loving drywall after some especially bullshit card pull. I guess I just suck with the cards I have.

I am the Walrus.

Has anyone else encountered a visual bug with Alter of Death where a card will be destroyed, disappear, but then reappears as if it wasn't destroyed?

Happened to me when an opponent played Iron Fist on it. Was very odd as they played another card there which then went "behind" the ghost Iron Fist.

Would also agree they could have worded the location better. When I first read it I thought you would be presented with some kind of an option to destroy the card to get the 2 energy and you could choose not too, instead of the actual way it works of "when you play a card here, it gets destroyed & you gain +2 energy next turn". I suppose there is a character/word limit to what they can fit into locations.

A location giving you a choice when you play into it would be an interesting additional mechanic, but as I think about it probably would slow the game down too much as a possible extra decision step every turn.

Also a blurb on Token improvements,

quote:

The Token Shop has been live for a little while and we’ve had some time to experience what we like and don’t like about it. We love how it allows players to make progress towards the cards they want most. We don’t love that the hottest, newest cards don’t feel very accessible to players who haven’t completed Series 3. Once players complete Series 3, they start earning 500% more Tokens on the Collection Track, but before then, Series 4 and 5 can feel out of reach. We are starting to experiment with changes we could make to let players who are still progressing through Series 3 feel quicker progress towards the new hotness. It’s going to take us a little time to make these changes, but our goal is to make the experience of earning Series 4 and 5 feel much better for folks who haven’t completed Series 3.

So, they at least understand they have a problem here.

How many credits can you expect to earn “naturally” in a given month? This is from missions and weekly bonus and the season track.

It seems good that cards are getting easier to open but this also pushes back getting Series 3 completion which keeps the token shop out of reach for a little longer. Unless the rate of drops of out paces normal cache progression in which case F2P is stuck in Series 3 forever.

^^^ Around 5000, plus whatever you get in rewards from boxes and ladders.

Lack of S3 completion doesn't block the token shop, it just slows it down. They're dropping one card a week as expected, and you can earn two cards a week while progressing S3, so you'll get there.

Ninurta posted:

Because anyone who's reached CL1000 can in theory have the card. But it would always be something. Before S4/5 I was facing full on Negative decks almost as soon as I got into Series 3. (Negative was of course the very last S3 card I got, and by then he'd been nerfed to his current state.)

Yes, but what other deck would I run M'Baku in? Gotta make some lemon out of this lemonade! Edit: Uh, the other way around. Whatever, not changing it.
(note that they're not dropping him a tier yet, probably a benefit to everyone still unboxing pool 3 cards)

I play Cerebro2 when I want to do a "play 2 cost cards" quest quicker, but yeah, too much location fuckery for my taste. Cerebro3 has Scarlet Witch and Rhino with also Bast to undo Scorpion, but just feels worse to play then its little brother.

Edit: Luke Cage could help with Scorpion and all the negative locations but doesn't stop all the buffing locations and the most fearsome Cerebro opponents: Wakandan Embassy and Monster Island!
