    Having difficult choosing a main faction.

    I've tried VG, FK, JE in some depth, and I like them all yet recognize their weaknesses..

    VG and CL are the most interesting decks IMO, not necessarily the most competitive. PE or GD is the deck you want for pure prowess. Or CG if you can figure it out, baffles me most of the time. FK is a fun deck that has some weaknesses, especially against factions with range champs. And then there's TO which I loathe...

    I'm looking to start a single elimination tourney with 5-for-fighting... esque rules. Each player will submit their 5 chosen decks in order and then they will receive their placement in the brackets and a sequence declaring what order they must use their decks in the match. The order will be redrawn for each stage of the tourney as the player progresses but the decks must remain the same. The random sequencing is to avoid people picking their best decks early and resulting in mirror matches. Plus, randomness fits with the SW way of thinking :p

    If people are interested I can setup the tourney on Challonge, hopefully a group of 16 rather than 8.

    Camzy, JE .... Is the sneaky type. It has bad champions and only two good commons. But if you use the extra cards (not mercenaries) you can build a kick ass deck as there are a couple of almost half champions and the events are really nice!

    Lol! I am actually playing, or better loosing with other factions now. The only games I do with JE are rematches plus a couple or mistakes in loading. I want to learn them all actually.

    Looks like I forgot a smiley in my post btw

    Warning for my current opponents.

    I am having serious issues with server connection. The app hangs with the box saying "connecting to server" stuck at bottom and only partially visible. Not sure it is a server issue or my app got corrupted.
    Sorry if I am slow in taking the next turn.

    I learned a great deal with PE from you on our last fight. Precision is damn good, and 2 precision in a turn is a bitch for the receiving end. It breaks momentum like a boss by taking down a just-summoned champ just like that.

    Im not too confident with more than 2 factions so imma sit this one out. That said, i'd be glad to assist in organizing the tourney. Let me know if you need anything.

    I expect most people won't feel comfortable enough to play competitively with 5 decks, but that tourney can just sit collecting signups as more and more people familiarize themselves with the decks. I want that tourney to have at least 16 contestants. Meanwhile a few other people are interested in running single deck tourneys, and those should show up soon.

    After my game with Tecwrtr, this exact same thing happens.

    I tried restarting the app, and the iphone, but to no avail. Happens only when i tap Online. Server issues?

    Sounds good, I'll need more time though. Only feel comfortable with 3 and it's been 2 days :D I've been playing virtually non-stop.
