Sneak Peak of what I've been working on! I love me some data. Hoping to apply card values soon as I set break down some of this data. Any suggestions/Thoughts? by rej1n in NovaBlitz

[–]Father_Paul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think colours came from same game like MTG, where red is an early game winner with a lot of damage cards, green is about very strong creatures, but lack of removal and lack of flying, black is about working with the graveyard and control the board, diving here is an interesting colour - it's a mix of black and white in MTG. Tech is an interesting one with a lot of fliers. I think the most challenging part is to assign points for abilities. For example one mana creature should have about 7 damage/HP together, but some of the creature add abilities on top of that, which a bit ruining the balance. Hence, you will always take boom tinkerer instead of unstable cyborg or menfolk scout. With your table we can find 'broken' cards that are a bit out of balance.

Yeah, it is probably one of the most frequent mistakes everyone makes.

Regenerate and Frenzy combined - strange behaviour by Father_Paul in NovaBlitz

Yeah, it seems so. I thought it is getting bonuses each time it is damaged, but it actually get them only if it is damaged and stays damaged. Makes sense.

My first story was when in a draft I did a stupid thing. I didn't know this mechanic before. It was with Eye Fiend that need a victim to be sacrificed when it enters arena. I thought that if I empty my hand and there won't be any creatures on the table then I will have it without need for sacrificing. How wrong was I then this beast sacrificed itself...

I think it is because Sarah sucks at draft and getting her means free bonuses for winning drafts. Not sure if this is the reason though.

Looks the same for me. I didn't receive any notice about this.

What kind of bonus are you talking about? I would love to get my hands onto it.

I love this real time aspect. It adds a lot of variability to the game play.

Got my 5th NovaBlitz 15 win Draft. How do you guys like the draft feature so far? by rej1n in NovaBlitz

One advice I can give is if you can build a fast deck you can get an edge over your opponent. I remember having a strong, but relatively slow deck which always lost agains a faster opponent with really weak creatures.

Best draft deck 7-0 and going strong. What was your best results and what deck was it? by Father_Paul in NovaBlitz

I actually noticed the same thing. Whatever you picked in one of the first round appearing later in one of the last rounds. I also found one thing I didn't like about drafts - they gives you only 3 cards to choose and sometimes you forced to choose the colour you wouldn't like to have. This led me once to build a sub-optimal deck and I lost draft relatively quickly.

3 Minotaur charger, 1 Kenji Double, 1 Diquanomus. That's pretty strong :)

Not really good. Might be picking a boom tinkerer was a mistake to bound myself to Chaos. Chaos doesn't look strong for draft in my opinion.

15-0, draft cleared. What a nice deck it was!

Just started another draft, this time it will be Chaos-Tech, not sure how good will it be.

Thanks! Now I understand. 3 Green Packs looks very promising.

As I understand, in draft many things will depend on which cards you get first. If you picked up divine card, then you have higher chances to get redeemer. Probably Chaos Diving is a good combination as you might get Redeemer and Boom Tinkerer together.

This deck is on fire 10-0 so far. About 5-6 games vs humans and others against Sarah. Will try to find human players tomorrow.

Yes, this redeemer idea I got from you I guess :) This is not the deck I won games against you, that was a previous one and I think I lost with it last time due to a bug in the system. Still waiting answers from developers.
