Wait, at the end of the season, my rank doesn't matter other than losing 30 ranks from it? So there's pretty much no reason to not continue playing, even if I drop below my current rank if I don't care about climbing again?!

Unless you're at Infinite it's actually better to keep playing cause there's a chance you'll gain rank and unlock more rewards that would otherwise vanish in the season reset.

Note: if you want to. None of the rank track rewards are good enough that they're worth dealing with laddering stress, so play when ya want, whatever rank you're at and whatever season it is.

There are only two things that matter in regards to your rank:

A) What prizes you get this season
2) What rank you start at next season to get those prizes

So play if you want to, or don't. If you're having fun it never hurts to keep on grinding, but if ladder is giving you anxiety just put it down for a while.

Early testing so not a ton of stats yet, but you have three game plans.

Plan 1: Drop Ironheart, Wong, White Tiger, Odin all in the same line and poo poo tigers everywhere
Plan 2: Good old fashioned Wong, Panther, Zola
Plan 3: Wave on 3 into Leader on 4, Odin the Leader on 6

Amy is there because she's Amy. Nightcrawler and Jeff! help you get into closed off lanes. Iceman is there to do something early; could maybe be a Nico or something else (Echo?!?).

I'm confused. Bar With No Name (lowest power wins). I dropped Snowguard Bird t6 to disable it to get around the locations rule on the sly. It didn't work, though. I've gotten this to work with "kill on play" locations.

That's the ink split, no? I believe they show up after 4 splits of a card, across all variants.

I think as long as you’ve got at least 4 variants or splits of a card, the b&w is in play, along with the gold background?

Bummer of the B&W cards is that usually they look best without any upgrades but then they’re just sitting there, unupgraded, taunting you

Got my first Infinity Conquest win with KM Best's Loki WWbN deck. It was pretty easy all things considered, including the final match against a Negative player that never got Negative out before t4, and snapped (and lost) each round.

Once you meet the requirements for the gimme, why would you delay?

Also, the 'premium' mystery variant is likely going to be a regular 700-cost variant. Just FYI before you spend 800 gold.

Progress does not reset until you hit 10 and claim your PMV, but you cannot claim more than once a week. So don't buy more than 20 variants a week. :v:

To expand on what Red said: PMVs come in batches of nine, three of which are Super Rare and the rest are regular 700G variants. So once you've had three 1200Gs the boxes will be poo poo for a while. Overall it's still 7800G of value for 7800G of buying (if you buy eight PMVs directly and two 700G variants to make up the ten), excluding the tokens.

I played this for a while minus Goblin, I think I had Agent 13 instead? I'm just a bad Bounce player, when is Falcon utilized? I never know what to do with him.

canyonero

I use Falcon to scoop up 1 drops to power up Collector a little bit, clear the board up so WWbN can move around easier, and to pickup/replay Nico since most of her spells are positive or neutral, while also moving WWbN.

I don't think there's a "wrong" time to use Falcon except if doing so would fill your hand up and you want your next draw. But on t5, I'd rather pickup my 1drops and fill my hand than draw America Chavez anyway. Well I guess t6 is always the wrong time to use Falcon.
