I did a bunch of rerolling before losing all my standards and telling myself I'd settle for anything that gave me a Forte or a Tsubaki, so the game gave me a Forte and an Olivia, among other stuff (Lord of the Flies, Soul Dealer, Gabriel, Fairy Princess, shiny Moon, and I pulled a Rose Queen yesterday), so I've been playing around with Dragoncraft. I'm digging being able to deal damage to followers with the effects of my own followers but my deck feels pretty unorganized at the moment between that and discard mechanics. I have not been able to pull off a Forte -> Evolve -> Gabriel combo yet cause everyone has spells to kill Forte in one turn. I do think I'm getting a better hang of the game, but it feels like getting a pack takes quite a long time, especially since I prefer opening a buncha packs over opening one pack at a time. Is it like that in Hearthstone too? I'm also stuck way too much in some sorta obsessive mentality, where instead of taking a win that's right in front of me I choose to deliberately delay until I can get a key card out so I can win the way I want, like some goddamn Yu-Gi-Oh! villain. It hasn't done me much favors.

Minus1Minus1 posted:Starting up with this, but it looks like the post-tutorial reward is just 15 packs rather than 25, so I've been looking at just 1-3 legendarios per re-roll. Am I missing something, or has the reward been scaled-back a bit? Shouldn't you be getting 15 Standard Packs and 15 Darkness Packs?

I managed to go 5-0 in my first Take Two (granted 1 was via disconnect) and I'm 1-0 so far on my second Take Two. But I still lose to AI. On the flip side, I decided to try out Havencraft cause I had Moon, found it a ton of fun, and then I pulled a second Moon, so I guess I'm going Havencraft instead? For Havencraft, should I be buying Darkness instead of Standard if I want the cool Amulets? Or should I just buy 'em with Vials? Also I got Rose Queen and Fairy Princess who look like they could be a neat combo but on the other hand setting up that combo would be a major pain in the rear end.

Holy poo poo I barely won with a deck using the Fairy Princess + Rose Queen combo and it was unintentional. My field kept getting wiped out because of the 1 damage to all followers Dragon spell and I had no followers left on the field, but I had exactly the right amount of Rose Thorns after playing Rose Queen that I was able to win the next turn. I didn't even realize I had enough damage; I was thinking about quitting or using a Rose Thorn on a 3 HP follower to survive another turn but in the end I just gave up and decided to use them on the enemy leader as a final show of resistance, only to realize by the second Rose Thorn that I actually had enough damage. I'm so goddamn lucky I didn't play any card cause I would have died if I hadn't won that turn.

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?

Terper posted:I love being new to a card game and coming across super weird cards. Managed to clinch out a tough Take Two game with 2 HP left, and on the last turn my opponent played Alexander. Why would you even need to attack that many times?! It seems like it's meant to help you clear the board, especially against stuff like Shadowverse which drops skeletons and zombies when followers die. Or if you summon Alexander and then Athena next turn, you could wipe out the other team's board while Alexander remains untouched. I think Alexander wasn't supposed to have a limit to his attacks, but Alexander + Athena vs Mordecai becomes an infinite loop as a result, so presumably the 14 was tacked on to curb that. Not really sure why it's exactly 14 though, and not 15, since that's how many times Alexander would have to attack in the extremely theoretical scenario that he goes up against a mixtures of Bone Chimeras + Undead King.

I'm slowly learning to use Evolutions as more than just reactionary tools to the enemy's evolution. It's also funny how I'm fighting against people who ram their 1 Attack followers into my Temple Defender without being aware of her ability. It's the kind of poo poo that the AI does. At least they don't ram a second one after their first mistake.

I loving hate playing as Runecraft, the last chapter of story mode was a pain in the rear end with my half-assed deck. I finally managed to win because the Dragoncraft dude didn't set anything for 3 turns and I got really lucky with my draws. But even then it was a chore and only possible due to having Olivia to give me more evolution points and the AI running out of cards. I had a massive grudge against the AI so I chose to play Satan instead of ending, destroyed every loving card he played, used 2 Dises to heal myself back, and got him down to 1 HP before hitting him with the 13 ATK follower for overkill. I might have won that final battle, but in the end, nobody really won this war.

Does Commence Experiment exist for the sole purpose of trying to get people to play a Spellboost / Earth Rite hybrid given that you could just throw up a wall with Scrap Iron Smelter instead and get the same amount of Shadows.

My memory is hazy and I don't own Ceridwen on my current account so could someone tell me if she works like Urd in that she doesn't trigger Fanfare, or if she does? I think I vaguely remember using her to bring back Lord of the Flies and got a Fanfare summon but it's been so long since I played Shadowcraft that I don't remember.

Golden Battler posted:She doesn't, but Lord of Flies triggers at the start of every turn which is probably how you got confused. Ah, that's sort of a bummer. Guess it would have been too powerful if it worked with Fanfare too. I'm tempted to make Shadowcraft my secondary archetype because I really like the Last Word mechanics, plus Urd works well with Forte so she could work on my lovely Dragoncraft deck as well, but having no Cerbs hurts a lot. And yes, I'm Zep. Ex Mod Seafood changed my name as a prank before he stepped down. I can message FAU to get it changed back but eh. If anything, you can tell who I am by my unique gangtag.

Clarste posted:Maybe this is me having a weird reaction to randomness, but I hate the very thought of a dud Nep. IE: 5/5 with ward + draw a card, or deal 1 damage to an enemy board that doesn't care, or anything that doesn't summon Mordecai really. I mean, if you don't know what you're getting when you play it, it's never actually going to be your best play on turn 8. I don't want to gamble with victory, so I made my deck with exactly four cost tiers of followers, and the 7 and 8 slots are reserved for Khawy and Mordecai. So at the very least I can guarantee those 2 effects, 100% of the time. The lower two tiers, 2 and 4, are filled with generally good followers, regardless of whether or not they have Last Word effects or Last Word synergy. If that happens it's a bonus, but I would never rely on it. That's probably a better plan than my throw everything in strategy that's gotten me 0-3 in the C tier.
