Yeah, I'm so glad it all worked out for you. And no matter how many Corrosive Widows I sent your way, I couldn't get rid of those darned Snapdragons. Sigh. Good game! You're fun to play, and I love live matches.
I admit I was lucky I could snatch them do early. But luck is part of the game and lately I get little of it
Yeah, I had a game the other day with 2 snapdragons - pretty amazing. And holy crap, I take back what I said about Black Hole. I used it last night, and it helped me win by a landslide! (heh, sorry cprloe) I think I had every hero of 7+ cost and almost every construct of 7+ cost (I think I was just missing one). Final score was 110 to 57.
I'm still learning how to use Black Hole effectively. I do have one question...after you send Samael to the void, it now asks you if you want to send every monster you kill to the void. If you choose to add it to your hand, do you not get the honor points for killing it? Any tips on how to make use of this new feature would be great. Thanks!
I'm pretty sure you still get the honor points for taking it. I'm sure they leave you the choice because some may not want to add every monster to their deck, or if you have Sadranis, you may want to put the high honor monsters in the void so you can defeat them again (though personally I'd keep them all).
You still get the honor and effect from defeating the monster. Samael just gives you a choice of where the card will end up when you defeat it - in the Void or in your discard pile. You probably want to add the card to your discard pile in just about every case, but the card says "may" so we impemented it that way. The warning popup was added because everyone was trained to drag a card to the Void to defeat, and it was very frustrating to do that by accident when Samael was in play. Same thing is true for Stone Circle, except that are probably more cases where you might actually just want to drop the card into your discard pile instead of on top of your deck.
Grrr, I've played a few multiplayer games with randoms, but I don't think any have gone the distance, and my games have ended with everyone else running out of time... So maybe I can host a four player game with both decks? anyone interested? I think I might have some of you on my Friends list, so you may need to send me a friend request if you want in. GC name is volcanopele. Also let me know what a good time limit would be if you are interested.
That there is a good example of polish. I actually usually drag my cards to the center strip (so when I've come to that situation, center strip doesn't work, and I have to think about where to drag it anyway), but the fact that you guys thought to put that dialog there is awesome.
Getting more and more and more curious about this game for everyday that goes, so i'll be buying this at the end of the month, really looking forward to it.
Just to clarify, the blue glowing triangle appears on any construct that is also being treated as a Mechana construct (from the effect of Hedron Link Device or Dimension Diver). The icon used is the same icon as the triangle for runes generated by Watchmaker's Altar and The Grand Design (the icon was pulled from the background of the Mechana card art). Note that this icon only appears on cards in your hand or the center row. We'll look to add it for your construct tray, discard pile, and the Void in a future update.
Odd question, because I've never had it happen to me yet, but would Avatar Golem still award 4 honor if Hedron Link Device was in play with constructs from all different classes? Also, you may want to check Twofold Askara's effect when copying the Dandelion Witch. It doesn't work properly. I had a Lifebound Initiate already in play, played one Dandelion Witch and got 2 honor (one for itself and one for the Initiate) and drew a card. Copied the Dandelion Witch with the Askara, and only got 1 honor out of it. It should have awarded two honor. One for the copied Witch and one for the Initiate. Also, subsequent Lifebound cards don't get added up with the copied Witch in play. Essentially, Twofold Askara when copying the witch gives 1 honor, draw a card no matter what.
Yes. Hedron Link Device adds Mechana, it doesn't remove the old faction type. Hmmm... I'll have to take a look. Note that the Askara doesn't count as a Lifebound card. It just copies the effect of the Dandelion Witch (but I realize that's not the issue here).
Why do people love banishing the Sordid Asp so much? It essentially only gives you 3 points maximum and okay, it doesn't deplete the honor pool, but there are very few situations where preserving it weighs more than additional honor. People choosing to banish that unit over 5 or 6 power monsters like Earth Tyrant makes no sense to me. Celeric and ArtFoundry are both culprits.
camzy i hope we can start a game. i sent you a request to add you on GC a while ago but maybe you didn't know who i was. The more i hear you talk about the game and how others here speak about your playing has made me extremely anxious to play you. Note that I'm not the best but i like the game and would like to play against someone as good as people say you are. @Artfoundry could you just explain to me how it is you're using Black Hole, I've attempted to use it, but I feel like I'm not using efficiently. Just to banish apprentices and militia fast? Just some tips I'm starting picking up Sensei and I see what people mean about him. Great games to everyone that I have a game with. Really enjoying this game. One of my favorites for sure -also for those who said they needed multitasking, I agree that multitasking would be nice. But the game starts up so fast, and moves go really fast that I don't feel like it's completely necessary. just my opinion of course
Because the Sordid Asp can cause a 5-point swing. It gives you one point, then if you have lower honor, it gives you two more that it TAKES from your opponent.
Yeah sure, add me again! I'd like to play you. O and Black Hole is definitely one of the best units. Fast, reliable banish is very hard to come by, and you'll be surprised how often you need an additional power unit.
O yeah, forgot that it STOLE the honor. I guess that makes it worthwhile, but I would still take an Earth Tyrant +5, Draw 2 over it.
