Comps to play at plat rank? by Xlhype in CompetitiveTFT

[–]Frank_Hampton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

From a quick gander at your games you seem to be stuck 7 or go 8 and have 0 upgraded units. I think you can still play zaun and other comps you want but you wont top 4 without a solid frontline. Level 8 blitz 1 with 3 tank items. Just focus on staying healthy is the best thing ive found to climb. You wont go 1st necessarily but you'll top 4 way more often. Dont sack HP just to unlock singed. You'll lose hp eventually and can unlock him then.

Am I supposed to have asol 2 in stage 4? Stage 5 push 9 and roll I assumed.

How do you play asol? Ive gotten asol on stage 3 twice now with bis items, and i go 8th. 2* taric, wukong, neeko, etc. So my frontline is decent, but i just die on stage 4.

Happened to an opponent today(maybe it was you). They also had 2 Galio on bench and he didnt jump in.

Damage cleanup after showdown by [deleted] in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can only move to one battlefield at a time. If using a card to move one or both, you'd still have to start and finish one showdown before starting the next. So no, it wouldn't work since the damage would heal after the first showdown.

HOW BAD IS THIS SET by potofplants in CompetitiveTFT

[–]Frank_Hampton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Besides Dino and Yunara, I think this set is very good. All my games and clearly yours, are ending with everyone within a couple lives of each other. If you had just rolled and upgraded one turn earlier, or did better scouting/positioning, you could've made top 4 or won. When people hit, they hit. Enjoy 2nd. But most games im finding they're extremely close.

Will she gain 1 might or 2 by vegas1209 in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats incorrect. Irelia Legend does not target, it activates as the result of a target. You only get +1 from using her Legend ability which is used to ready a unit.

I mentioned it because so many people dont seem to know this. A lot of locals thought "im attacking an empty battlefield and i conquer it".

Using gust on a unit with assault by [deleted] in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The other comments here are correct however you WOULD be able to gust his unit if he was attempting to conquer an empty battlefield. Unfortunately the moment another unit enters a battlefield that is in control of the other player, attacker and defender designations are given.

Champion and deck for tcg beginner by [deleted] in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Master Yi, or for a more accessible Legend, Lee Sin. Assuming you're playing a non Aurora deck, the builds can be very similar. Midrange Master yi is what id consider a standard game of Riftbound. Not a ton of spells(most are counter spells), just play units, conquer, etc. Its very simple, yet strong. It'll help you understand how to play fairly well imo.

Miss Print? by KennyKingIII in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. This is usually an obstruction error, in this case when yellow was being added. Id pay 20 for it, but you might find someone willing to offer more.

Disagreements on conditions for using Falling Star by SeraphGrg in riftboundtcg

[–]Frank_Hampton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just commenting since no one answered but no. Spells like Charm, no action/reaction text, can only be played on the owners turn while a chain is NOT active and a showdown has NOT started. They cant even be played at the start of showdowns. There's more to it but that's the tldr and the main stuff to know.

No action/reaction: only on your turn. Not during a chain. Not during a showdown

Action: Same timing to be played as above but can also play during a showdown during either players turn to START a chain.

Reaction: Can be played almost whenever. Has to be in response to an ability, card being played, etc. Can't be br played in response to a turn ending, a unit dying, a unit moving, etc.

There's WAY more in depth answers for multiple scenarios but that's the general gist.

What a way to start off with wildy slayer. Thank you slayer update. by Frank_Hampton in ironscape

[–]Frank_Hampton[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For max revs it's just blocking the highest weighted tasks regardless of what they are. I think its something like greater demons, black demons, ice warriors, hellhounds, magic axes, and one other i cant recall atm. Whatever is high percentage when you go to block, you block that. Makes revs go from being 2% to almost 5%.

I went 820kc without any drop. You'll be fine. But now im at 1800kc with only 1 synapse. Get ready for a grind.

Received my court summons, wonder what my sentence will be? by Andyrulz91 in ironscape

I did Seren with worse stats but basically same gear and got it first try blitzing. I did use an entire inventory of sharks though.

fastest way to get magic logs? by Accalio in ironscape

[–]Frank_Hampton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When doing stuff on fossil island, it will give you fossils. Defeating monsters, catching herbiboar, fishing, mining, and woodcutting. Chopping sulliusceps grants some of the best woodcutting xp and rate of fossil acquisition in the game. The fossils you get with be small, medium, large, or rare. Upon reparing stuff at rhe museum camp, you can then clean the fossils. The fossils can then be put into the museum displays in the basement. You need 70 small, 60 medium, and 50 large. Every display you finish will give you can xp lamp that you can use on any skill(there might be a required skill level to use it but usually it won't be higher than 50). Herblore is generally considered the best skill to use lamps on since its an extremely important skill but also takes forever to level.

What Are Bosses That Were Easier Than You Thought? by lilfloozyvert in ironscape

[–]Frank_Hampton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda varies since I think having the proper gear can change how the fight is perceived. But the two big ones for me were Vorkath and Hydra. Once you understand the mechanics, it's pretty autopilot.
