Can anyone recommend some good streams or YouTube videos for this game? Looking for some articles as well.

good streams are envybae and grincherz

edit: envy is pretty memey, if you don't like sneaky's stream you'd not like his. he's a good player though

All of a sudden I'm stuck in silver, getting my loving rear end handed to me every game with my Vanar deck that I made from new stuff I got out of packs, and I have no idea what the gently caress I'm doing wrong. Going full-face just isn't working anymore, so I've tried controlling the baord a bit more and I'm still losing horribly. I don't want to blame bad card-draws and poo poo replacements because this game avoids those really well for the most part, but I don't know what mistakes I'm making.


+ x2 Aspect of the Mountain

Someone way better at this game tell me if there's any changes I should be making. I've got most of the good Vanar and Neutral cards (other than, somehow, the mechs for a Mechazor deck).

get rid of loremasters and twilight sorcerers, go down to 2 razorbacks, add another jaxi, add another primus fist, add crystal cloakers. add chaos elemental or repulsor beast

honestly I don't know how well that's going to work but probably better than what you're trying to do.

Well, Jax is Vanar's best wincon, so that's going to cost you some games that other lists would win. I would probably prioritize crafting in this order:

+1 Jaxi (asap)
+1 Primus Fist
+3 Dancing Blades

Then start saving up for Jax.

With just basics I'd do something like:
-3 Twilight Sorc
-2 Loremaster
-3 Tiger
-2 Hearthsister

+3 Crystal Cloaker
+2 Snow Chaser
+1 Jaxi
+2 Mark of Solitude

The more I play Vanar the more I become convinced Razorback is their best faction card. I wouldn't cut it to 2.

he doesn't have jaxes so razorbacks lose a lot of value. not saying they're bad but i've held one and thought "i wish this was another card" a lot.

I just added 2 Aspects Of The Mountains, a 3rd Hearth-Sister and 3rd Hailstone Prison to my constructed list. How does this look to you guys?
Recommend up to like, idk, 4 card subs you'd do- No legendaries though since i'm kinda strapped for spirit atm and don't want to disenchant my Lyonar and Abyssian stuff.

e: Just got a Frosthorn Rhino out of a pack maybe sub out a Draugar Lord for it?

don't play sworn avenger, don't play less than 3 emerald rejuvenators imo. frostfire is pretty bad isn't it

What's the deck list?

Twin Fang, Kujata, lots of 1-drop 1-hp minions. play dance, play kujata, play twin fang, play a lot of 1-drops and gain damage from them dying to kujata, which draws you another card

Let me tell you, after playing 8~ games to complete my quests welcome to the era of mechazor. He's nigh unstoppable now. No chance someone is going to gum up their deck with 3 crossbones and try to fish one out every game but as soon as I dropped him every time it required so much to answer him he instantly won me the game if my opponent didn't outright concede on the spot. Tempo hacks.

i have not lost to a mechaz0r deck today

I'm convinced that Vetruvian is the strongest faction right now. First and Second Wish are the best card draws in the game, and the meta is seeing less removal so Ranged and Blast is really powerful. My current Vetruvian deck has a really high win rate outside of the mirror. I guess it helps that I'm running an off-meta stealing deck.

What do they do with a Sand Howler with a Third Wish on it? I'm currently running Lightbenders and I still have a hard time against it.

i guess if you happen to have a sand howler and a third wish and they do nothing with the turns you give them while you set up...

I think it's definitely a good deck to blitz to rank 10ish, but it seems a lot of decks are tuned against it starting there. I've been s-rank before with various vet and magmar decks.

i go back between 2x blaze hound and the third lure + another card (maw sometimes, breath sometimes)

SSJ_naruto_2003
Oct 12, 2012



That was the same as my game basically. I went like 8 turns not seeing a void reaver or shadow nova and my opp was on 1 the whole time.

Then i lost.

SSJ_naruto_2003

this is why you don't win, it makes people salty :(

SSJ_naruto_2003
Oct 12, 2012



Why all the one-ofs? I would drop the dancing blades and healing mystic for two of the bloodtear alchemists, they are pretty amazing for me almost every time I draw them. Also fit a third holy immolation in there if you can, imo. Aegis barrier is not great but it does cycle and somewhat synergizes with bond.

EDIT: actually keep the mystic, i'd like to fit another in. -1 decimate unless you really like it, -1 dancing blades, +1 mystic +1 holy immolation

Also I haven't really seen oculus doing much lately -- everyones running a huge number of ephemeral shrouds and lightbenders

Lieutenant Hoffman posted:

Yeah now that you mention it I'll try dropping decimate for a third holy immolation. I put the one healing mystic in so that I have seven two drops for consistency. I'm not a big fan of the Bloodtear Alchemist because it's a dead draw later on and can get pinged down by so many things. Aegis barrier seems very useful to me mainly as a cycle card, although if the opponent doesn't draw dispel it can force them to fight through your +2 attack taunts.

If I did drop the occulus what 3 drop could I use instead? Most of them don't seem to have very good sticking power.

I usually play Blaze Hounds but my deck uses a lot more early drops than yours. You could try Chaos Elementals.

edit: I'm not saying I entirely hate oculus though. If they don't have a silence it can very easily take over a game.
