I would almost never recommend running 1 of anything creature base. If you have at least 3-4 of another creature - hunted witness, the other elephant you can convoke for health maybe as a 2 of with your venerated. Combat tricks could probably replace your legions/historys. Basically anything that will buff your creatures or if you want to be a little more control oriented throw a few luminous bonds or seal aways.

I edited all your sets btw if you didn't notice.

Edit: Also RNA tomorrow so decks are going to be changing pretty fast with all the new cards =O

wow today has been brutal to me. i've gone 3-12 so far. about ready to throw my cards across the room. except they're digital.

You play to much. This game is run to maximize revenue generation. That means giving those that play a small amount the rush of easy wins. Those that play high amounts are expected to equalize the loss rate.

Looking forward to trying out some news decks today. Should be fun for a while.

Hachima · Jan 17, 2019

For better or worse Momir's comes to an end... I am a bit tired of the format but I couldn't stop playing it with a 70%+ 5 win rate (20+ 5 win runs) I had the format down... It also ended earlier than I thought before I could pull off my last win

I didn't think the expansion was being released until tomorrow...You have me hopeful now!~

Tmac · Jan 17, 2019

Just beat a guy 106 to -4 with my White Weenie deck. LMAO!

Mahes · Jan 17, 2019

Having an odd issue with my Desk Top computer. The execute files will not initialize the game to download the patch files. I uninstalled the game to reinstall it. I went to start the setup .exe and the exact same thing happened. I cannot even start the download process for the game. Is there perhaps a security thing I need to look at that for some reason changed after they started this patch this morning? I played the game just fine this morning. The cute thing is that my laptop had no issues patching and playing. It runs Windows 7 and is over 7 years old.

pharmakos · Jan 17, 2019

Couldn't get the game to run myself, so I'm reinstalling. Feels like it's taking for fucking ever. So excited for new cards urghhhhhh

Invalid Command Line Error

Big if true.

Wasn't true. Still happening.

Hope you guys havent been hoarding gold hoping to draft for your new cards like me. Looks like they are doing gem only draft/sealed for the next 2 weeks. If i wanted to convert my gold to gems i am stuck with m19 draft, so no way lol. I should have done a bunch of rix drafts.

Chimney · Jan 17, 2019

I just popped 70 packs.

I got like practically every card that I didn't want to use. Farewell to my 40 wildcards of each type to build my troll like bo1 decks ;[

Caliane · Jan 17, 2019

Didn't get anything amazing from my first round of packs I think. nothing to realy build a new deck off of.
Except maybe Zegana. wont need 4/4, 2 , possibly just the one enough.

zegana with branchwalkers and wildgrowth walkers. ooph.

edit:and got a second zegana. whelp..

growth spiral is common? jeeze.

That happens to me quite a bit and I just relaunch the game and it works the second time, every time.

Sorry you're having difficulties

Wat? I just bought 10 packs with gold and have gold for 10 more.

Caliane · Jan 17, 2019

dont forget "playallegiance" code as well.

Lendarios · Jan 17, 2019

how much gold/gems do you guys have?
I have been hording but only have 17k gold/

Chimney · Jan 17, 2019

Zero gold left after my pack popping spree and around 2k gems.

Derpa · Jan 17, 2019

My F2P account is sitting on 45k gold from just doing the daily. My pay account isn't far behind just from doing the same thing.

Yeah you can still buy allegiance packs with gold, but not enter the draft with gold yet. It sucks because I prefer to spend my gold on limited instead of just cracking packs.
