Topic: Tyrant / My 2 cents about what this game was/is/or is going to become

Originally posted by Muki13:

Or here’s a crazy idea: improve your deck building skills. Honestly, people suck when it comes to building good decks and they even sometimes suck when using a good deck that was built for them. No medicine for that. Every so called op card you listed has a weakness. And the funny thing is that you even havent mentioned the cards that can combat every deck type in this meta, cards that imo are truly OP by definition.

I started playing in top level faction play last year in October and played in top 10 until a month ago. For six months I maintained a daily net of around 1000 – 1500 (minus cq and vacation time ofc). And for almost that entire time period I used the same 4-6 cards in my deck. The rest changed accordingly to what was in the meta.

Now if you are complaining that the cards are OP in standard tourneys and in arena then I cant really argue with you because I dont have any experience with those areas. But in faction wars and in conquest, those cards are far far from being OP and not a single card right now deserves a nerf.

(the You I am referring is every person who complained about this or that being OP)

I am talking about standard tournies and arena. I am around 200th right now in tournaments and I used to be 12-15th before I stopped playing so hardcore. Being able to make a good deck does not make the balance issues in this game okay.

I’m starting to feel the same way. They should just get rid of fear all together. The archetype is boring and requires little to no skill. This would help them focus on fixing the current archetypes. Reminds me of Dredge in magic. Why would they make the mechanic in the first place? All these cards & skills to battle and then fear just sidesteps them all and doesn’t interact with any of them minus walls.

Increasing deck sizes to 20 & hands to 4 could be interesting as well to keep the game evolving.

Ah thanks dna you are a breath of fresh air lol. And for any haters, I’m a high elo player in one the top factions. Hell I coulda been part of dragons when they invited me. II know a thing or two about this game. Its not my first TCG. PLease don’t be needlessly rude to random people you don’t know.

I’m glad a lot of you agree!

I hope they do fix it. I’m not sure how unless they nerf many things(which will nvr happen) or if some new skill will save the day

Topic: Tyrant / My 2 cents about what this game was/is/or is going to become

I truly believe this game has past its peak and is now at the second half of its life at the very least. It is still very fun, but its very broken and now I feel its limited to powercreep after powercreep of the same decks.

Heracles was the first mistake (at least that I know of. Its around when I started playing seriously). Heracles completely dominated as the best legendary in the game against every deck.

Then summon and blitz was created, which was good and bad, gave diversity! It was pretty good, but it spawned phantasm fear and zarak. Then they put summon into a structure _ Creating wallstalls………..

Around the same time they upgraded sabre. Creating the rock paper scissors meta of stavros rainbow/wallstall/fear. Wallstall dominated at first.
(Lightning strider :D)

They realized they screwed up and buffed siege, killing slow roll righteous and the use of ANY STRUCTURES OUTSIDE OF WALLSTALL. This truly is where the game started breaking.

Then warpway fortress……I truly do not understand why they would fix a problem only to make it worse again. wallstall domination. And again they realize the problem…

and they create something I regret helping popularize….TI fear. At first it wasn’t that popular. I was one of the people who first started using this “anti-meta” fear deck. The rock paper scissors of wallstall/stavros/xeno fear was still there. Then people started using it A LOT when hornet drones were created. TI DOMINATED TO NO END. People had to use 3 siphon cards or something. This killed the use of almost every 4 turn wait card

And to stop this now they are buffing the health of every commander. buffing walls, buffing skills releasing power creep after creep. Everyone’s getting crazy upgrades. 18 health commander with heal 2, 8 health units, 13 health units, 15 health units.strike all, JAM ALL.

And they can’t fix it. If they fix one thing the other will be too strong.

Verdict: This game is sentenced to endless powercreep and a rock paper scissors meta until its death. There is a small chance of a maricle that fixes this. That is all. I still like the game by the way. Its just going to die in a maybe 1-3 years

In a couple months we’re gonna have something strike all 5 siege all 5 at this rate.

Topic: Tyrant / How to counter Pyro Rigs and grim specters?

creeping slaugh, odin, marrow aileron, death from above are probably the best choices right now.

The thing is you need some slow cards and some action cards against pyro rig, BUT to beat those pesky GS you need creeping slaugh,odin, or some kind of swiper/rallier that is quick.

So just mix some monarchs with cards mentioned above. That’s what I would do anyway. Haven’t gone into a standard in so long cuz of exams

Stun seems like the worse skill in the game. Only changes things against Flurry and swipe assaults, like these:

Also, because there’s a commander with stun (Dom), does he trigger stun on assaults? Same with walls.

It stuns them for the next turn as well.

I lost 2-0 to Xaysh

I really don’t like how this thing is set up. Its too much like rock paper scissors in deck choice. But w/e, I lost fair and square. I just wish this was more like dna’s competition. Felt more strategic

MY GOD, you’re a genius. +1

Topic: Tyrant / What bloodthirsty Mono lacks

It used to lack a lot. they’ve been fixing that a little with the new rally all capabilities, siege, and good cards vs flying. But what they lack right now is a summon on play card. Every other faction has at least one now. If they get that before the game changes too much they will be meta breaking. (Well as soon as this TI meta rolls over.)

Ironically, jimbo’s main deck in standards (Last time he told me) is Tactical Infiltrator fear.

The scary part now is that fear has been powercreeped so much that even Stavros, the former goto anti-fear commander, is completely vulnerable to most fear decks.

Yup, I tried a variety of solutions. But the only deck that can beat fear as well as other decks (using cards i have) is fear. I wish i had more rapiers and ruthless brute or something. And somehow i dont have a second death from above lol. I even spent 120K trying to get one.

Pretty much this.

Basically imagine if darkwing archer alone is chaosed. it’ll ceanses itself and then chaoses. That’s the point of the skill order
