Topic: Tyrant / [Idea] Replace Pyro Rig's Immobolize with Intercept

Would be interesting. Immob is hardly useful… but at the same time, it wouldn’t change much. Sabre, Odin, DFA, etc, are all “all” skills. With the exception of halcyon, what’s going to change about how to kill it?

Topic: Elements / another kong tourney

It was just to have fun. I thought it was to be done within a day or a week or something and then we all report on the end, like dragtom, but S2 thought otherwise.

I don’t understand how a card can be both overpowered and underpowered at the same time.

The cards are almost all insanely overpowered compared to what we’ve seen in the past.

HOWEVER, the cards are also not overpowered enough to keep up with the high level of powercreep we’ve seen.

Basically, it’s overpowered compared to the past, but underpowered compared to the now.

OT

Who is him?

BTW, the pic is epic.

Conan O’Brien, who had his own late-night comedy show (don’t believe he does anymore). And yes, the fact that the powercreep has gone up so much is why the game is dying. Had they taken steps to avoid this problem (it’s not impossible… games like LoL et al have supported a massive playerbase and many years of gameplay without ever having “powercreep” be a word that describes them), we might not be at this position that, say, an 8hp structure with Refresh is even being released at all. We all know how bad Chasm is to take out, this one deserves a screenshot if it gets taken out, and that’s how bad it is.

#EndPowercreep2013 (as if)

Also, glad you liked the pic, was perfect for what I was looking for.

It’s Conan, he has his own talk show :)

@iamthemasta: Dunno what exactly you see, but I see regular powercreep we’ve seen in nearly any new pack (maybe not from Gold to Enclave, but ever after…)

And that’s the issue. The devs never had a lesson in powercreep and how to stop it, so now we’ve had more and more powerful cards to the point that Gold, Enclave, and, to a point, Nexus-Homeworld aren’t even seen anymore (with the exception of a few occasional upgraded cards or cards that have managed to stay good but popularity is still dwindling, like EQG) are never seen anymore. And that’s why the playerbase has gone down from ~6 full rooms of people who aren’t faction-specific down to ~3.5 over the past year or so.

Topic: Tyrant / [SPOILERS] Flashpoint pack 2

This pack has so much powercreep in it.

And the sad part is, IT STILL SUCKS

Congrats devs, you have powercreeped the game into making this game pointless. People are moving over to other CCGs like Kingdoms & Lords and even Elements. Watch as your playerbase falls as you desperately try to save the game by releasing higher and higher stats to try to keep people interested, while at the same time forcing the exodus out of the game. Congrats indeed.

If you need any proof, just look at the fact that people are suggesting UPGRADES ( !!! ) for this pack even though the stats are already insanely higher than what we’ve seen in the past:

Legion 3
Sunder
Augment Xeno 3 on Attacked

Holy Benediction
Legendary Righteous Assault
1/12/4
Remove Stun
Evade
Rally All Righteous 3
Siege All 3

You, my dear devs, are inane. Congratulations.

Oh, and next time… Just release a damn upgrade before you make stuff like Launch Codes and Alaric Rejuvinated. You may as well do that instead of releasing a new card in a WB-only pack. You people don’t deserve the playerbase you do with the moves you make. I’ll say again you’re forcing the exodus of veterans like me out of the game, and fast.

Originally posted by dias17se:

In Alaric, won´t that jam on attacked hit mostly units who already attacked ?

No, Jam oA, like Weaken oA, is designed to only hit units that have not yet gone. Unfortunately, this means that Flurry/Swipe units cannot be jammed through it (although Swipe obviously doesn’t count for Alaric)

Topic: Tyrant / Advanced counter cards game (squabble edition)

I think I’ll steal this idea ;P

Rule 425: Alternate between BT and righteous. Regenerate procs only once.

Topic: Tyrant / [thegil] event points contest

Oh, I didn’t realize that. I thought you meant post your screenie to see your remaining points & “what you had,” which was why I said that it didn’t make any sense.

Does anyone have that kind of patience? I certainly couldn’t wait for Ospry.

Here’s another golden tip most of the pros keep to themselves, but since I don’t take the game as seriously anymore, I don’t care much if it goes out in the open:

When you surge, you generally want to lower the opposing commander’s HP to 0, before he does it to your own commander or going past turn 50!

If you follow this tip you are guaranteed to win, I promise.

omigod thank you, I never knew about that.

I THANK THEE, WISE ONE

Topic: Tyrant / [thegil] event points contest

screenies would be useless lol.

EQG – 2-4
Erelim – 1
Shapeshifter – 0
Ospry – 4-5
Venorax – 1
Primus – 1
only 2 refills, and minimal tourneys. I say 2-4 and 4-5 because I have the ability to get either/or right now and I can’t decide.

I also had a few days where I could only spend like 400-600 en of the whole day so I missed quite a bit of EP. Oh well.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think my points increased despite this, so it might just be a visual bug. The same thing has happened to me once before in the arena instead of in a tournament.

Visual bug usually. I have a few times lost points, but I’ve almost always won em.

Originally posted by gloopspainter:

!!! When a card SWIPE a “Weaken on attacked 2” card. -Ram’s head For exemple it should be weakened INSTANTLY! STUN DO THIS SO WEAKEN SHOULD TOO! Or you have to Let the Stun Effect Activate AFTER the Swipe happens… Thanks for your attention.

Weaken on Attacked works differently than Stun. WoA doesn’t work with swipe because if it did, then WoA would also weaken the target that hit it (or at least be able to), which would be useless to a target without swipe or flurry. The way Stun works makes sense, because it can’t go both ways (as WoA can with weakening the card that hits it when it won’t be attacking again).

So, you either have WoA work with swipe/flurry and have it weaken them, or you have it so that a unit that just attacked can’t be weakened. Your choice.

sunder is incredible because it only affects the subset of cards that are (i) assaults, (ii) placed directly in front of the sunder card /within swipe range, (iii) has some type of interplay with rally/berserk /legion/a few more.

btw, tribute on rox is pretty powerful (no kidding).

fix’d

yea i forgot about that. there are two sunder swide cards. both have 4CD. incrediblest abiliti.

Topic: Tyrant / Advanced counter cards game (squabble edition)

I don’t see why you should only have to kill one, but that’s just me lol.

Trolol!

Rule 424: Play 2 Assaults at the same time, 1 Legendary at most. All cards have Health x2 or Health +3, take the higher value, but all kinds of healing will not work. Win by killing either of the played Assaults (Summoned ones don’t count, but they will affect position of other Assaults).

Topic: Tyrant / FuriousAtrocity - Now recruiting!

Reserved for the future, if necessary

Topic: Tyrant / FuriousAtrocity - Now recruiting!

^{FuriousAtrocity} is _{now recruiting!}

The items on the menu here at (Mc)FuriousAtrocity are now being replenished! We are trying to fill our ranks and are looking for new cashiers, fry cooks, and awesome people to be the ones that fill it.

Now, you may be wondering, “How do I indulge in that delectable looking menu and partake with FuriousAtrocity!?” And, as usual, I have the answers!

A few requirements, of course:

• You need to be level 75
• You have to have a good cardpool, preferably with Warpway Fortress and beyond
• You have to be sociable & don’t shrivel in fear when you have to talk to other people
• You must know how to change your Tyrant room chat to room #6 so that you can speak with us, and & accept the Kong+ Private Room Chat to get to know you
  Disclaimer: May cause obesity and high blood pressure if consumed at high levels.

We also can make occasional exceptions if you’re just an awesome person and we like you a lot or if you’ve got an epic cardpool but don’t meet some of our other requirements. Just ask and we’ll see if we can :).

But of course, if you’re not interested in partaking of the amazing menu items we have to offer, we’ve also got a few.. other reasons why you’d love it here. Just step into my office.

Please, have a seat! Oh, you like my poster on the wall? Yeah, I get comments on that all the time:

Okay, so do you like warring factions & owning several tiles on the Conquest map and raking in a nice 5 tokens a day? Oh, you DO? Well (and this is between me and you), the whole McFA thing is a front. You see, we are a faction that can provide constant bloodshed in both offense and defense wars as well as conquest domination runs!

If you’re interested, ahem, the rules, regulations, requirements, bureaucratic paperwork, soul-selling, blood-signing, etc, that existed before still exist now, so just pop by Tyrant Room #6 and ask for a FuriousAtrocity member, or type (without the ""s) “/w furiousatrocity Can I have an invite?” to speak with us at any time that we’re available.

And for showing your interest to the end of the post (or if you can’t read and you’re just looking at the pretty pictures anyway), I’ll leave you with one final image to remember us by:

We will RISE UP!

You’re late. Counter Meteor. Aside from that, Beholder’s weaken is evaded. Check General Rule 8 and try again.

Edit: Ninja’d
Edit: Also, I think this works! You hit for 2, 4, and 6. That’s only 12 damage before you’re dead :P

Considering you changed your combo, yes it works. That was the “one” card that came to mind (since Freddie* was already used, this was the only other counter card) that could beat it. Do note that the Siphon on Feral Scorpion also doesn’t work, if you were hoping for it.

I can think of only a few cards that can best this, since Hope Mason et al were already used. Actually, only one card comes to mind so far that can beat Meteor.
