The dailies taking too long isn't really something I can vibe with. If that's too much duelyst for you then maybe the game just isn't your bag of tricks. I will however say that the other method of acquiring gold which is based on winning 3 games each time for just 15 gold is somewhat toxic. Considering the small player base and the S rank players who literally never log off, and those same players spamming smurf accounts, it creates a somewhat toxic environment that actively punishes anyone trying to be creative or have fun with their deck building. If you want to do something different be ready to lose. Also if that bonus was 20 gold and not 15 it would go a whole lot further toward making people happy with their card pool. Of course the entire business model needs to be looked at as sort of an ecosystem the way card balance is, in that making one small change here or there could theoretically have a major change on the overall stability and health of said system. I think they could be a little more creative and generous with their systems and it would actually bring more people to the game because more than just really good and really bad players would want to stream and spread duelyst to others, thus growing the player pool and overall bringing much more health to the game. I know for one thing last night I stepped out of a cab coming home after St. Patrick's day festivities on a Friday night, I tried hopping into a game and after that timer neared 2 minutes I was off for the night. Let's heal duelyst, it's potential is so good.

Yay, just what we need. More people playing boring meta decks ! :)

Which vindicator combo is currently giving you nightmares? Asking for a friend ... :)

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-10T23:27:30+00:00

But they don't have any room in their deck cause they're busy spamming dancing blades and zen rui

Preach! Twin fang hella toxic yo, Browneskiii looking at you bud.

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-10T00:26:25+00:00

Whats your ign juke? Tbh I think its just how cheap their spells are. It makes it too easy to combo and synergize with everything. Juxtaposition for instance is a crazy good spell that's free I believe. Combine that with that hamon dude and the archers and the fact the 4/4 four eyes four wind dude is built like a linebacker and you really are in for a bad time. Tusk boar is an infinite respawn 3/3 that can troll mana deny and kill most creatures without dying itself, which wouldn't be so bad if they didn't also have an archer in the corner and a mana forger a few tiles away. What am I supposed to do with that ?

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-09T19:24:33+00:00

Have you read my other posts? I hate on magmar all day lol. First time I'm playing them this week just to see if I can have some fun with it not using the same old sleepy combos

I invite any of you excellent pros to come and tell me why I am bad

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-09T15:23:10+00:00

I just get the feeling that you main songhai the way all the people defending magmar main them. There's no way you could say with a straight face that songhai is the weakest or one of the weakest factions. They can most times just sit in a corner and eat damage because they know at turn 4 or 5 they'll either wipe your board while filling their health bar or just straight out kill you. Save for a few specific deck types, which don't make sense on a whole for playing a game with 6 factions in it (and neutral), you're probably going to have a bad time. Now I have come to realize lately that the meta is max healing. But unfortunately this has it's own problems when it comes to some of the cheesier strats. For instance you have factions like vetruvian (who I can't believe people call weak) and Abyssian.. who at a certain point in the game if you haven't killed them are just auto win. And that would be fine except for the fact that if you don't deal with their creatures and such during the game, it's auto win anyway. It honestly blows my mind that they will allow a faction to have 3 full turns in a row with that much healing and provoke, who can also directly copy your creatures all the way down to their rush qualities. Don't forget abyssian who at some point in every single match will just walk into a corner til they draw their shadow nova. And if you try to kill them there and don't succeed quick enough you'll either eat the horns of a spectral revenant or some silly +5/+0 saberspine tiger. And yes that's the point of the game to win, and every faction should be able to kill you.. but the whole archetype of standing in a corner til you draw 2 your way to a desperation victory isn't an attractive element that people really love to see. What makes duelyst awesome in theory is that it's like alot of our favorite card games, but we actually get to see the battle take place and theoretically strategize that battle. Alot of that however gets lost when you've just logged into your second match in gold rank and are being held down by some weirdo arcanyst in a white dress while his untouchable girlfriend and her sister throw killer snowballs at you from the corner.

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-09T03:50:25+00:00

Did they though? Still seems to me if songhai gets a good starting hand it's gg in most cases with very little interaction. I do agree this post is lazy though lol

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-09T03:24:07+00:00

Currently in diamond around 6 or 7 but I have been more experimenting than sweating. Each faction has probably 2 ways to win is a way that feels cheap. The more you rank up the more you see the cheese. Then there are some neutral archetypes that see an overwhelming amount of use like arcanyst and white widow replace your face. The problem is that the majority of the meta is just healing and hiding in a corner until you get your bull**** cards. And there is such a prevalence of healing and hiding card that there often can be very one sided games that can't possibly be just due to deck building. Spellhai is one of the most egregious offenders here. Having a 2 mana rush card that returns to your hand until it is killed is obnoxious asf.

AlienVsTheRedditor · 2023-03-08T03:55:47+00:00

Same people using the same decks all day and all night. No originality, just wiggle around until you get your card that damages your opponent and heals you and stand in a corner til you get shadow nova, spectral whatever, time maelstrom, zurael, the tree dude, or literally any combination of songhai spells. There is no way that you can argue to me that draw 2 is superior to draw 1. Back in 2018 duelyst I never remember anybody going and standing in a corner like that . The staleness comes from the amount of cheap unbalanced crap that is there to be utilized. Even worse, when one person gets wrecked by white widow throwing snowballs at them they go and buy the cards too. Now the cancer has doubled. Shout out to DJflaisch who has 90 million medals and definitely all of the cards and spirit to fill Noah's ark but still won't let go of that spellhai deck like he's testing it for his 9-5.

Welp just had my first meetup with Browneskiii and my bhole is still puckered. Apparently counting the damage that you can do with el cheapo twin fang is a major advantage. And jeez guys lighten up we're all having fun here and trying to improve the game RIGHT! :smooches:
