This game is cool and actually reasonably F2P unlike every other online TCG right now. Loving it.

Yeah, I'm quite enjoying it as well, and it has the complexity that I wish Hearthstone had. I'm just hoping it also lacks the typical Blizzard kneejerk "balance" that HS has. :v:

Combrei Fliers? Valkyrie Enforcer and...?

I think I saw the list on Numot's site, but it's a lot of fliers like Eager Owlet, Tinker Overseer, Valkyrie Overseer, Karmic Guardian, etc. backed up by anthems like Xenan Obelisk. It was one of their recommended "kinda budget but moving up past super budget stuff" decks at some point. Forget the actual article it's from though.

I know titan is legendary but 5/6 stats for 4 mana is gross

It either needs to be 4/5, be 5 (TT), or lose the endurance (I'd prefer it lose the endurance). Its presence basically makes flight school variants worthless, but I don't think the no-fly zone would ever be on the table for removing.

This should probably be in the OP but always, always, always draft (if you're done ranking up in Forge).

Basically you can rare draft your way into so much shiftstone value that even if you go 0-3 its okay, and if you can manage to go 2/3-3 its the same gold value.

Yeah, this thread on the Eternal subreddit has great data about how basically even if you go 0-3 and only rare/legendary draft it's still better value than just buying packs: https://www.reddit.com/r/EternalCardGame/comments/5nne8o/why_you_should_draft_rather_than_buy_packs_from_a/

Oh yeah, its a huge beating. Though honestly if you're crafting for Rakano I'd do Deepforge Plates + Champion of Glory first. Those two will take you farther I think. (Soulfire Drake is amazing though, even if its Entomb effect is largely irrelevant because after landing it you usually either win or lose because its a 5-drop in aggro.)

Already got two plates and four champs. :) Been lucky as gently caress with Plates being available in drafts, so the Drakes are the last power card that I need for really tuned Rakano.

rules interaction I just lost a draft game on: if you're facing a lethal attack including that legendary that does Entomb: set your life at 7, letting the other stuff go through and killing it will not result in your life going UP to 7 :v:

Makes sense to me from a Magic background; state-based effects (you are at 0 or less life) would take effect before the "when ~ hits the void, set life" trigger.

This was my experience this week struggling to finish a "win 5 times with a Primal deck" quest after blowing all my dust on Rakano. Turns out there is a limit to how budget you can make a netdeck and still hope to win - taking out all the legendaries is probably okay; taking out all the rares is not.

Yeah, that was me trying to accomplish Jito without all the Pyroknights, the 3/1 that pulls something out of the void, etc.

Marshal has been my favorite for end of turn silencing one of my permafrosted units, or for huge blowouts against the 5/2 dragon. Lots of cool interactions.

Marshal and Valk Enforcer on permafrosted units is so radical, and it tilts people like none other. Had some dude rage-add me to bitch me out about how much I was "cheating" for silencing a Rakano Outlaw for lethal. :v:

Does silence work for all iterations of stun? Permafrost, for instance, I assumed the rules text stayed on the Attachment and thus silencing the unit wouldn't hit it.

Same question for Ice Sprite. Do you want to silence it or the frozen unit?

For Ice Sprite you want to hit the Sprite, to remove the text from the Sprite. For Permafrost, you hit the frosted unit to strip the "Stun the cursed unit for as long as it is cursed" text off of Permafrost (since Silence hits both the unit and all its attachments).

Pretty sure if you rare draft and go 1-3 you still end up ahead vs just buying packs. This game has a pretty generous reward system.

Hell, you're effectively break even if you 0-3 and out.

Plus, the "see a few cards of the same rarity" thing already exists, it's Forge and you keep those cards too.

Just lost to some insane red/purple/blue combo deck? It used a bunch of the haunting scream/infiltrate cards but added cabal spymaster and that red card that makes all your units deal 1 damage. It triggers infiltrate so he'd use it to trigger like 4 infiltrates multiple times in the same turn. Looked pretty bananas

Was it the Mirror Image/Gunsmith/West-Wind Herald/Spymaster one? Because yeah, it's inconsistent but holy gently caress is it hilarious if you get it done.

The opponent plays Protect, which grants Aegis... on my bird, which already has Aegis. This has the effect of removing Aegis from it.

Correct. Aegis protects the creature from one enemy spell effect - even if it's a good effect. Levitate is a great Aegis cracker because it cantrips too.

delfin posted:

Also, I'm trying out Diplomatic Seal and I'm confused. If you have 2 influence of ANY color, it has no effect on influence?

If your total influence is more than 2, it gives no influence. If you have TJ or TT, then you can use it and choose an influence, but if you have TTJ, it just increases max power.
