Topic: Kingdoms CCG / noran's surprise uselessness

That, pretty much. I won’t disagree in your situation, because if you are new, you might not have quite enough of the right cards yet.

I haven’t tried it yet, but I’ve noticed a trade function that seems to allow you to trade in a hero for another of the same tier. Because I have never used it, I can only say this from hearsay, but I had heard it removes hero stars for the new hero. Other than that, and maybe trying to contact the devs and hoping they will give your new hero full-stars again because of the situation (I would tend to agree, Noran probably isn’t the best starting t3 for newer players), I wouldn’t know what other advice I could offer. Even if they didn’t, the stars aren’t /too/ troublesome to get, I think. If your intent on rage-quitting is set in stone, though, never mind all of this obviously, haha.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Tidal Force

As someone who uses Jorma… it often feels like, if used at a time when it’s 0v2-3, it’ll often turn the tables quite heavily. I wouldn’t say it’s always advantageous though, there have been some times where it helps my opponent more.

Can’t claim to have any demonstrable knowledge on it, just what I’ve observed.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Core Card Tweaks

Hm, perhaps. I can’t say I’ve thought it through enough, just trying to offer a possible solution to a problem :P

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Core Card Tweaks

Er, disable all gears rather, but I think that was understood.

And maybe. I assume the length of time would depend on the rarity.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Core Card Tweaks

I do sort of agree with the lack of warsmith counters upon the new change. Maybe a new rune card in the upcoming set that just, idk, disables all rune words for so many turns?

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Card Suggestions Builder [Beta]

(Probably should mention the art isn’t mine so no praise there or anything, but I figured it would be something of the sort. I’m no artist, so I didn’t think I should make an attempt, haha).

Thanks :D Some of the numbers might be a bit off, but I think the principal would be neat.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Card Suggestions Builder [Beta]

Quick thanks for your work on putting this together.

I was rather exited when I seen you post this, because I love seeing people’s ideas, buuut not one has put anything up yet! Hopefully no one minds me posting one here then, haha.

Maybe I can get the ball rolling a bit. Design isn’t my thing, so I did this rather poorly, but maybe it’ll get people doing their own?

A kamikaze with the power to be a game-ender. Possibly needs more limitations but considering the low hp and high mana, I think it’s fair. Would probably be a rare I guess?

Any thoughts here? Well on the idea, please don’t judge the card itself, hahaha.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Epic Booster Price

Whether or not it’s fair is irrelevant to me, but they actually did announce on their blog that they would be considering changing it, about 2 days ago I think. So not so much stealth, to be fair :P

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Post your Pulls!

Wow, awesome luck!

I got Torture earlier which is rather nice, but other than that I keep getting dubs, haha. Probably about 4 today, even though I have around 10 rares :P shakes fist at my lack of luck

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / New Epic Booster Stupidly Priced

so far 5 people agree that its overpriced vs. 1 who dosent….the masses have spoken, it IS overpriced, this is a fact, no matter what anyone says.
i also agree that the other packs are overpriced, if it was up to me it would be: booster, 100gold. gold booster, 500gold. epic booster, 1000gold.
thats what the prices should be

At those prices, people would have all of the cards within a week, probably :P At that point, the only advantages would be for those who pay premiums, which I believe most of the members (and possibly the staff?) would be against.

I won’t bother weighing in on the issue, but I would like to share my personal thoughts, briefly. It’s important to distinguish between complaining, and constructive criticism. I do believe the latter is always important in the advancement of anything, but the former… Well, being respectful will always get you further, especially if you’re requesting something. I obviously can’t speak for the staff but if I had to guess, they would probably feel the same.

I’m not foolish enough to think my words will change the way people will react, but it’s just a little food for thought, for anyone who cares to listen :)

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Bug Reports

Not a huge issue by any means, but the “Active” bar on your profile page doesn’t seem to be updating properly?

I’ve been on every day for a few days at least, and it’s always at 1/7. Not sure if that bar really affects anything as of yet, or if it’s just not updating for me, but I thought I’d share.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / Tournaments Preview

Definitely curious to see how it will play out, really looking forward to it.

Topic: Kingdoms CCG / what do you think should be added

There actually is a surrender button.

If you click the little gear on the bottom-left, you’ll see an “exit battle” option there.

Cannot unsee (in a good way).

There are plenty of free offers you can do – I gained over 500 kreds in just a few days from them, and didn’t pay a thing.

I’m not sure if I should be entirely amazed, or chose not to believe you, lol (I have no reason not to believe you, it just seems impossible to me, haha). I’ve been on plenty of sites with free ways to earn things like kreds, and usually they don’t work, or they take forever. The thought of it being that productive seems mind-blowing to me, but that may just be because every time I have tried similar things in the past, it was either a slow gain, or no gain at all. Maybe I’m missing something vital.
