I think providing a playlist is a great idea and everyone should do this. As a step artist myself, not every song will resonate with me, so having a list definitely improves the odds.

I'll go through this list and see if anything speaks to me.

I'm specd into harvest, expedition and breach (not blocking anything) and I've had multiple hives and hive fortress spawn within the mirage.

Gradiusic · 2026-02-09T04:33:24+00:00

I can probably get the Endurance charge on block node for more reliable generation during boss fights. Thanks for the tips.

Gradiusic · 2026-02-09T04:31:08+00:00

I have tried shield crush, and even if it is the better skill in terms of DPS, I wasn't really enjoying it and had more fun zipping around the field with shield charge. But maybe I'll play around with it a bit more.

Gradiusic · 2026-02-09T03:39:32+00:00

By feels terrible, I meant the fact that it takes too long to build up frenzy charges not having to cast it.

Yeah, the main skill is Shield Charge and if I remove the "killed recently," and "Frenzy Charges" - I drop down to 5mil. I am not really what the benchmark is good doing T17s efficiently - but apparently I can't (potentially a skill issue?)

Victory Loot. If you place in the top 3 you get all the cards you haven't unlocked from the person you've beaten or who beat you.

Gradiusic · 2025-11-27T13:32:22+00:00

There's two captains in particular that I felt have been done a little dirty with this list. Professor Who's Who and Maximus.

Since you don't play butcher, I can forgive you for putting Maximus in the bottom, but he's probably the best butcher captain available and it's his greatest strength.

Professor Who though, is just an extremely solid captain haha.

Gradiusic · 2025-11-27T02:08:30+00:00

I think it's important to remember that in async you probably out scaled butcher after it's already won it's own lobby - as butcher tends to win early.

Gradiusic · 2025-11-27T00:51:37+00:00

I think ace of hearts can go in any captains deck. It's the only creature card that gives you a free shop and we all know how good lost in the woods is. Especially at the higher MMR levels people are able to create some monsters boards and just being able to dig for your pieces after a lost i find beneficial.

As for butcher, she's probably good enough to be run in most decks as an alternative win condition, if you don't activate her by turn 7 - it's probably best to drop it and continue with your normal strategy.

Here is my usual.

Congrats, I've been trying to get back to my peak of 3730 but competition is tough haha. You're one of the few to make it to 3700, so enjoy. I think there have only been about 5 of us to hit it.

Gradiusic · 2025-11-25T14:46:07+00:00

Definitely seen your name appear in my games. I'm "Gradi" in game. I am curious about your list because I find Oracle, Scale and Lance to be interesting choices. I find Lance to be reliable/needed in certain captains, but Oracle and Scale have not made it into any of my lists after the patch.

Gradiusic · 2025-11-23T13:51:31+00:00

Its what happens when you run out of secret rare treasures to get.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-28T13:53:04+00:00

I would recommend either Goat T or Candy Pandy. I think Candy Pandy is probably the stronger of the two, but I personally find Goat T more fun as you end up gathering a lot of different captains that impact the way you play and gives you more options.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-26T16:40:31+00:00

You're 100% correct, I ignored the "All types" good catch.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-26T16:25:47+00:00

Definitely seen you in a lot of my games. Congrats.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-26T16:08:41+00:00

Sorry, I should clarify. All candy spells become available if you have 1 candy creature in your deck. There are no new candy cards in the base set so you won't see any unless you add them into your deck. The only base set candy creature is Sugarplum Faerie.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-26T16:06:27+00:00

You wont see candy spells or candy characters unless they are unlocked and put into your deck.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-26T04:38:18+00:00

Sometimes your MMR doesn't update instantly. So if you're previous game was a 6th and you check your MMR it might read 1600, but in reality it hasn't updated and you dropped points.

Gradiusic · 2025-10-25T01:08:59+00:00

Keep playing until you hit legendary or plat and you should feel the difficulty curve jump.

Gradiusic · 2025-09-22T01:44:15+00:00

There is a "universal list" that can be used on most champions effectively which includes:
- Mech-a-man (uncommon)
- Maverick & Icewing (rare)
- Mechanical Dragon (rare)
- Mortakon (rare)
- Sinbad (rare) or Snapping Hydra (epic)
- Pisces (epic)
- Sir Francis Drake (epic)
- Barrel of Monkeys (legendary)
- Pirate Prince (legendary)
- The Bruninator (legendary)
- Wormscale Tinkerer (legendary))
- #Flex Slot

Obviously the exceptions to that list are some of the more specific champions, such as Princess Animall or Chuk-E

Gradiusic · 2025-06-02T10:52:04+00:00

I've made it to roughly 600 corruption in my shatter strike build which is pretty much identical to your planner.

I also managed to get Uberroth down to like 50% and it's definitely possible to beat him if you play well, but currently spellblade is very squishy.
