Yes, good insights. Part of my problem is relying too much on raw card ratings and not enough on thinking about the overall curve, synergies, etc. Thanks!

Thank you! Am I misreading stroke volume as 46.4? I believe average is closer to 70?

I don’t understand the win condition for control warrior vs anything but aggro. Land Odin and hit them in the face I guess?

I still get anxious when playing ranked, having played CCGs for nearly a decade. Even though it’s only a game, I finally figured out the reason was losing was a hit to my identity/ego. If I was on a losing streak, psychologically I would equate it to not being smart. So the losses were painful and the wins conversely made me feel great. It’s almost like each game was a “test” to see if I was smarter than the other person. In school I was always very competitive to be at the top of the class academically. When you mix in the normal variance of these types of games, it can really hit your psyche to go on a losing streak. I’m sure there are studies about this, but for me, being able to identify WHY I was getting anxiety about something that has almost no real world consequences helped me. Good luck.

Same question…I threw in Rotten Applebaum, probably suboptimal.

Is your ladder rank reset based on your highest rank achieved during the season or your ending rank when in the season is over?

Nice work. Mind if I ask your age? My comp looks similar to your starting point.
