in fact, why does the op specifically call out haven as not having a budget deck? you can fit a 100% functional garuda haven deck in 7000 vials. that's more than most of the op budget decks, but not that much more, and unlike those it'll carry you all the way up the rankings if you decide you like garuda haven

I mean yeah it's annoying but I've been using the time in between reinstalling the game to do other stuff. Plus, I realized I can use up my tickets for Take 2 since I'm gonna end up trashing the account anyways, so that's been fun. Runecraft seems hard to pull off in T2, but I am also super new so I'm guessing actually drafting any deck would be tough for me

probably old info. storm haven is really good and can use the same neutrals (read: gabriel) as midrange/aggro sword.

my friend found this game and i found this thread. i don't really give a poo poo about rerolling any more but with my 43 card packs i think i did alright:



pascale is animated.

what should I do with my cards for a deck?

e: one of my friends opened a pack and got 8 animated cards in one go. :v:

Funny enough, Odin and Olivia are the only two legendary cards used in one of the top Havencraft decks. Alex, Olivia, and Tsubaki will get you a solid start into all of the top-tier sword decks as you mentioned, I'd say you've got a solid roll. Keep in mind I've only started playing a few hours ago, but my own deck has Alex, Odin, and Tsubaki, and they really help out. I just finished the sword campaign and looked through the top sword decks, you (and me) are gonna need more legendaries but you're definitely at an advantage over most other players at your skill rank.

e:I'm actually looking forward to playing against other players on the steam version who don't know about rerolling

Last night I played a Runecraft and thought Heh, I'll just not play any cards for a couple turns so they can't build up their dshift. :smug:

It was an Earth Rite/follower based Runecraft. :(

Speaking of Earth Rite for some monumentally stupid reason I thought Runecraft was silly because you had to rely on like 3 followers to have Earth Sigils up.

Then I realized some of the Runecraft amulets WERE Earth Sigils as I got my rear end handed to me by a Runecraft deck in Take Two.

Bottom line is I sorta regret throwing away my save with Sun Oracle.

EDIT: Like, I was wondering why the dude played a Price of Magic when there was no target, and thought, sweet, that dude wasted a space and why is it an amulet in the first place?

I'd say that this list from a Japanese site is a more "canonical" banner sword list. The gamepress.gg list uses Maid Leader and Conscription, which imo indicates terminal confusion about what your game plan is supposed to be.

don't, aurelia is 99% of the time going to be worse than advent blader as your 5-drop (the situations in which she's better you're already losing badly in, and she won't turn it around), and the game should be over long before lucifer is relevant; the beauty of banner swords is that it's a complete master-viable list for like 4k

well, my start seems fine enough so I'll keep it and just play the game and learn and maybe at some point i'll know what to do with what i've got. banner is super cheap and i prob have a bunch of cards for it already anyway.

The whole point of maid leader is to guarantee that you can draw the banner. The comments on that page are basically full of people criticizing how poorly thought out that deck is after using it

Is it? The 1/1 2-drop early is an insane amount of tempo loss, and you're still running 3 floral as a plan-B for turn 4. Whenever I've played against people using the .gg list, I don't have any trouble grabbing board control away from them when they drop Maid Leader-Veteran Lancer on 2 and Fencer on 3 pretty much ends the game right there. But I play a fairly defensive sword list, so my experience might just be weird.

Remember, the decks on gamepress.gg are just a translation of the real site where deck lists get posted after they're analyzed, which is gamewith.

and of course a beefy ward at turn 3 would be better than banner but that is you responding to the meta around you. His deck is conceptually flawed, it's basically built to counter storm haven but it performs worse compared to regular banner against all other decks

lucifer isn't very good in a sword list but saber is pretty solid, in the sense that she will single handedly win you games against aggro bats, which is otherwise an iffy matchup with aggressive sword lists.
