solo arena seems super RNG in how difficult your opponent is.

I got the forgotten machines one at rank 8 and its basically 1% that you win with any deck.

basically they get free mechs every turn and every mechs they play have +3 (and later on they add a second support so they get 2 mechs per turn and theyre all +6/0)

all of their cards are mech too of course...

NH!

I breezed through the first 7 of those with zero problems, even had like 3 games where my face didn't get a single hit. Then I got to the dwemer machine dude and promptly went 0-3

Still haven't finished it. Made another run at it last night and went 0-3

Also someone (not it) should look up how to add friends or whatever so we can start building up community, my name is same as my handle here on there, not sure if there is any sort of special tags that go after the name a la HS

I'm talking about the very first time I did it, which was immediately after I finished the tutorials. Dwemer Dude was the last one I fought. I had beaten all the others, and you can't fite Da Boss until you beat the others.

Never mind I see what you were saying now

Either way I'm going 0-3 against that guy regardless of what order I'd have fought them in, it was insanely easy to beat the others while impossible to beat him.

Of course I went 0-3 against three different opponents in my next run

I think tonight I'm going to try to build a deck with as much card draw as possible. Seems like with a 50-card deck you really need some good card draw effects for consistency.

Of course I'm probably the eleventy thousandiath person to think of that

there isnt THAT much card draw in the game where you can stack it, like soem kind of miracle deck where you just cycle your 50 cards and then combo with whats left doesnt exist.

I think the closest thing is like blue with the 5/4/4 creature that does 2 damage to enemy face for every spell you use. And theres a 2 face spell dmg that also cycles.

And of course lightning bolt to finish off.

And that legendary atromancer can be bonkers.

I dont **** know tho.

I chose dunmer for my avatar. Should I change before I get my first free legendary? Tried looking up what's good but it was a lot to take in.

Already spent $15 on this. Obviously had to get the welcome bundle and then got some arena tickets. Figured it would be better than dropping a ton on packs before I was sure I liked it. Totally went in blind on the character choice as well.... oh well. So far I'm enjoying it a ton. Got a few more 9 wins in the solo arena since I'm too scurred to get destroyed in the real one

i think the only competitive red right now is red/green (called archer).

Its also the cheapest tier 2 (or better) deck possible afaik.

The top ones that are a bit more controlled usually use a ton of legendaries with high magicka costs bombs (mostly purple with ramping magicka but there are also some mage control).

Yellow seems to be all over the place with many archetypes.

Blue also has some combo spells-to-face for kill if theyre not built for control.


Again, im still a newb. But a newb with almost 300 games now

red/yellow can run 3x jarl (draw 2 if more health) 3x crusader (draw 1 if destroyed enemy rune) and 3x rapid shot (1 damage 1 mana slam) which is a lot of cycle

same

lack of mobile and newness really the only things holding it back

It needs some cosmetic upgrades but those will come in time

Gameplay is just flat out solid and it just *feels* better than HS for some reason
