Hmm, care to put that on video? Showing the deck doesn't needs any legendary to stand a chance?

Nothing against specific trophies but for a weekly it is highly discriminating.
Permanent caste specific trophies should be a hit tho, forcing everyone to be playing/trying specific deck types should kick up the versatility of the game.

The nehant discard tactic was used against me. As long as you attach 2 terrors early on the opponent will have to choose between playing cards or eating siphons. Sure you need a favorable draw for it to work but having the Receptacle is not required. (you can't expect to pull this off 5 times in high ELO but for the 1500 zone i'm sure it works just fine)

Also in the caste temporary trophies/events equation the problem lays with the market speculators (who in my opinion should be taxed much higher)

When treacherous is banned nehant mages are a nice choice.

While the intention to introduce some variation to the classic gameplay is appreciated,  amidaxar should be the last choice for a nehant mage deck. Receptacle and dimizar have much better synergy in terms of order bonus then amidaxar + either on of them.
Perversion is crucial due to the high damage decks that are  present at the moment. In ELO you want to have a chance to win in every match and against marauders it is very hard if you do not get the demon may rise/ demon portal combo early, since vital syphon heals too little. So perversion is really important if you want to stay alive.

Hungry void is useless since the deck already has breaking the second chain. More then one recycle card is a bad idea, because in some games you will get them all early on and you will be handicapped.

But remember as long as treacherous is active nehant mages are a no-no in ELO. Even with ANS you will have problems since the 3 spirit will make you discard your hand completely. (if you play 2 cards)

Other then that it is a good initiative but try using the [card]card[/card] tag next time.

I spend around 50 energy on zahal mission 1 and got nothing.
Wont waste anymore time on this.

OK the fifth mission does appear to be on a whole different level from those before, did anyone manage to do it yet? I tried 3 times so far, but they manage to kill him by the end of round two, ffs

I've beaten it with discard (marlok, psych, salem) and the ball. If you start focus on reducing your attack vs pilkim by playing at least 1 look away, but the ideal scenario is that they start so you only play against pilkim once.
Door to infinity would help tremendously as well.

Against the Zil I just used the new tempus deck and it worked just fine. If you get Heartrending dilemma in your first or second hand you already avoid all their turn bonuses. Also it seems that the ignore-the-first-card capacity doesn't work.

Indeed, the ignore-the-first-card ability isn't working.

In my case sometimes it worked other times it didn't.

Other than damage favors, is there any other way to beat the 2nd level??  I can't even think of effective ways to do it.  Other than quick killing the demons and using that crystal spell card that lowers attack with each hit...

I read that you can also use [card]Crystal Storm[/card], [card]The Dead Gods[/card] and [card]With Evil Intentions[/card].

With evil intentions does not work.

3rd mission is easy, got it at the first attempt.
4th mission is harder, lost twice already.

What did you try?
I've failed with pirate marauders.

Since they rely on reducing attack I am thinking of using tsoutai. Temple guardians could also work.

#110 Re : Deck and Strategy » Wow » 14-03-2012 19:32:46

The second mission is bugged. I used shulong and played dark destiny in turn 4 -> -12 attack but I could not kill chalice.

I'm not sure if it's a problem with venerable shulong (one among many others) or a general bug though.

#111 Re : Discussions about Eredan iTCG » zahal (i hate him) adventure » 14-03-2012 09:27:17

All I wish for is to be able to destroy unsalable characters. It's annoying to browse through all those useless level 1 characters when building a deck.

#112 Re : Discussions about Eredan iTCG » Anti game cards? » 14-03-2012 09:15:59

Heartening dillema as unique is a great idea.
The change for demon may rise is pretty good.
Sentence is perfect as it is. Make a deck with 3 obesity if you are so worried about sentence. Solaris should have a healing cap or less defence reduction though.
Dolorean is ok, no change needed.

There is another card you forgot to mention - ecstasy that should work only for damage dealt by the opposing characters.


Also in the light of the recent releases the nerfing of cards like living nature or brothers in arms makes no sense.

#113 Re : Discussions about Eredan iTCG » Can't sell any cards » 14-03-2012 08:59:54

You have to buy something with feez every 3 weeks in order to be able to sell on the market.

Sellable cards will always be sellable. The ability to sell on the market is the only thing that is turned on/off as stated above.

You can win a small amount of crystals (a few k) by getting in the top 3 of the arena of the border (need solid deck), leveling cards (completely unprofitable in terms of return/time invested) and market speculation (need lots of crystals).

So the only viable option to get crystals is to buy boosters. The new change of releasing OP cards all the time has increased the value of new blood boosters a lot so that is probably the way to go.

#114 Re : Update list » The Tournament of the Million - Resistance » 03-03-2012 07:06:54

Again the top 1/3 lose 5k sad
I remember the good "old" days when we could register for 200 feez and the top 1/3 got a booster.

#115 Re : Update list » Poll for the foil cards!!! » 03-03-2012 07:04:03

As long as you offer fair compensation to players who own foil cards. I have a ton of foil cards but the only reason I gather them is for their collector value. As long as I get compensated for the extra time and crystals I spent amassing my huge foil collection, I see no problem with their removal. Even more I would be sympathetic with the possibility of a quick cash-in.

the only difference between the stage 2 and 3 of the reward renagade is different artwork and shiny boarder. So if you want the NANANABOOBOO effect on your renagade the work is worth it

The last fight is impossible to win without favors. Even more in order to get the 30 points win you probably have to use a favor each turn.
I've barely won even thoughI've used about 8 favors.
So I'm not sure that the art is worth it especially since the card is not that great.

#117 Re : Update list » Temporalis » 01-03-2012 15:19:45

Playing those uniques two times seems like a great deal to me.
Also a free weapons at will, solaris or vital syphon does not seem bad either.

#118 Re : Update list » iTCG: Mount an Onslaught on Bramamir! » 01-03-2012 08:19:52

For the noz mission you can use the lowest attack mage you have and put crystalization, dragon wit + punishing the unpure on him and you will go on forever. You can add another low damage mageand dandy so you maximize the number of turns.

LATER EDIT: A more effective strategy is to use the pythia with sylphide and crystal storm (attach it once she is buffed). Then try to attach to her - crystalization x2, punishing the unpure, butterfly collar, paladin hammer. you deal damage 1 time from crystal storm, 1 times from regualr attack and 1 time from butterfly collar.
Add some craftsmen to buff her defence.
The only thing that can go really wrong is get 2x "until somebody gets hurt" on pythia early on or he discards some essential cards. Put 3x moneyed just in case.

#119 Re : Update list » iTCG: Mount an Onslaught on Bramamir! » 29-02-2012 18:41:27

The event is really fun. The interesting battles and trophies add a lot of value to the event.
Congratulations Feerik!!!

I have 90% victory against the bug with a discard deck.
He takes the discard pile only if you play permanent cards.
Play only direct cards like [card]theft[/card], [card]blackmail[/card], [card]mental syphon[/card] and he never gets the discard pile back.

Do not play [card]Chiaroscuro[/card] or permanent defence cards, he will shuffle the discard pile and you will loose.

Wow this is brilliant info! Thank you!

information on forums should always be taken with a grain of salt. 

your "evidence" can be as bogus as me claiming that I am the CEO of <insert company here>, who loves to kill time by playing cards.

People wanting to get attention to themselves (hmm what thread do you think would be a good example? smile) could make some sort of claim or another.

Again, they COULD be true, but really, aside from devs relaying game related information, no data w/o proper investigation can not be claimed as fact.

What people are trying to tell you is that even if there is rigging, it doesn't mean that only one side (the winning side) is doing it.  Do you really think those who played pirates, kotaba, and sap heart did not think of slapping 3 level 1s and throwing games? please...

The reason people are being somewhat slighted by what you are saying is because there are a lot of people who put in time and effort into getting a win, by saying they only won because of "rigging" is insulting.

In my line of work, those who lose, whine. Whining is losing. Whiners are ...........

smile good day.

Even if what you say is true, you are missing the point entirely.

As long as cheating is easy and risk free it is perfectly normal for players to express their suspicions. More so, not only is normal but from my point of view it should be encouraged as long as it is built upon solid ground.
Again I relate with your point completely - you and I am sure many others have participated in the war fair and square but that does not mean there weren't cheaters.

So your bashing of the "whiners" is counterproductive for the game, because it's Feerik's role to "bash" the "whiners" by implementing some solid regulation for the wars, so that cheating is no longer easy, and implementing some solid checks accompanied by some form of punishment, so cheating is no longer risk free.

I've mentioned some these solutions before and I will remind them in case, God forbid, someone from Feerik reads these threads.
1. restrictive solution - do not allow more then 1-2 points to be awarded between the same two players - really easy as the mechanism is already in place
2. expansive solution (as in expand the number of war related matches being played) - create a room similar with the "challenges of the courtyard" for the war where only fully leveled cards are allowed - more matches for the interested players, less benefit for the cheaters (they can't level up cards anymore) - harder to implement but more fun

#123 Re : Deck and Strategy » Nomad VS Pirate (which is better and who will win?) » 25-02-2012 07:56:34

It would be very easy to prevent rigging. 1 or 2 points maximum vs the same players. They already have the code for the weekly events so I don't think it is hard to implement it. An even more powerful solution would be to only take into account matches played through "random battle".

Also a special room for these wars, similar to the challenges of the courtyard, could it easier for players who want to participate in the war.

#124 Re : Update list » The tournament of the Million » 24-02-2012 21:50:03

The previous tournament gave players some motivation. If you finished in the top 3rd you would actually win something - a NB booster. Now if you end in the top 3rd you only lose 5k instead of 10k.
For me this new reward system doesn't really do much in terms of incentive to participate.

#125 Re : Suggestions » How to fix discard decks. » 20-02-2012 16:55:35

@leorio
I guess you haven't heard of Marauders Nehant, Zil and Pirates - they all have the ability to kill one or more enemies in the first 3 turns easily. Never heard of players running one of those decks complain about discard.

When you have more experience at the game you might come to understand the extremely important role discard has in ELO in terms of maintaining a certain degree of variety.
