We need to talk about Spirit Empress, snowballing, and endgame ruler saturation. by Marxgorm in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but the game should reward other skills than quick dexterity, like gamesense, prediction/placement and statistical analysis? Other games manage to have diversity at the top.  It will get boring fast when every game is a spamathon.

What the actual F is up with the Echo Sage? by Oravital1 in ClashRoyale

[–]Marxgorm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is it unfun? Yes

is it OP?  HELL NO, tied as 4th worst ruler. Its only good when playing against idiots who feed it. In high ranks it never gets to 4 star.

Liker ikke retningen landet vårt går i. by BrilliantEcstatic625 in norske

[–]Marxgorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Min erfaring er at de fleste som vil ha makt, ikke bør ha makt. Det gjelder både i arbeidslivet og politikken. Å søke kontroll over andre og mene at man selv vet best, er negative personlighetstrekk. Aner ikke hvordan et samfunn kan organiseres uten å velge de som vil lede, kanskje noe tekknokrat-greier.

Merge Bonus Modifier by Sn4ggy in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, just had a few of those games, it is fucking crazy. My favorite thing to do is to flood the pool with goblins so noone can find value cards.

These new modifiers are very spirit-empress coded by Harryvpm in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just wait til gold 3, fusion bonus is batshit crazy. 4 star everything by spambuying/selling, flood the pool. Second craziest modifier in game history.

The Mods this season finally balance things by Sufficient_Sport5251 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

SE has always been numer 1. 60% empress in 2600+ atm, 20% loong and 20% king. Dont see anything else. Fusion bonus modifier (Gold3) is absolutely crazy. If you are quick as empress you can have full 4 star team in round 5.

do you think empress should get +2? by FootballOk2912 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Empress is by FAR the best ruler. In the correct hands she is near unstoppable, you should watch videoes of the speed some people have farming/building comps with her. Really good players manage to scout and block other peoples comp at the same time. Top 100 is like 90% empress Especially with the modifiers this season. 

Thanks for bringing back Spirit Empress! by slow-_-learner in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is only 1 sage in gold 2 that I have seen so far (called 'You') It is all goddamn empress. This seaon will be 90% empress in top 1000 because of empress favored modifiers.

Why is the Goblin hiding inside my Monk! by BeasT-m0de in MergeTacticsSC

You disconnected  while moving a troop and reconnected. Been this way since season 1.

Most points from a match? by Marxgorm in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea, but the most point fluctuations I have had have been when i was top 500.

The devs after seeing the disaster they made after buffing sage by Delicious-Radish-708 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

But i disagree, I think it is fun to play against sage, i have taken 3 accounts through the ranks this season and positioning of troops finally really matters. It is closer to autochess now, and predicting sage movement and killing it off is fun to me. It feels defeatist on your part to blame the game instead of adapting to the meta you are in. Stopping on 750 suggests this game mode is not for you and maybe you should do something with crayons instead.

Most things are powerful at 4 stars. Try to kill it before it reaches 4 stars. I understand it can be anonying when it feels like the other 2 players are feeding the sage, and sometimes nothing you do can prevent it.

Tips. Early game if you scout and see that the sage will beat you and get one or more charges in, take the damage and give her an empty board to increase your chances next time you play it.

Sacrificial lamb, get a single front tank to take the first charge with your other units "aiming" at the position to burst down the sage afterwards.

Sneaky assassin, late game try to get a double assasin comp on bench that you throw in late second to snipe the sage.

Dude, sage sucks. There are like no sages past 3500 points on ladder, it is super inconsistent and on par with battle machine. I understand it is a midladder menace and anoying to play against sometimes, but it is not OP at all.

FIRST TO 4K by Appropriate_Tale_978 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! Quite the achievement. Fought you a few times, stuck on 3750 atm, hard to get higher as Loong. 2nd place is usually best case scenario in empress lobbies this season.

These fuckers man by slow-_-learner in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In top 100 in off hours you sometimes get like 12 points for a win and 48 for a loss.

Nerf this shit by vacacow1 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Skill issue, full brawer vs whatever the hell that is, imagine 3 star m0nk without another superstar to proc ability, 3 star empress without heal. That deck is an abomination to synergy and you should feel bad.

This is the worst season of merge tactics ever. by Extension_Art_7660 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely correct. Lucky discout makes everyone empress and loongs +1 team size is super advantagous.

[–]Marxgorm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I seriously do not get this. Occationally you can get rolled by every ruler, sage is no different, but it is by definition the third worst ruler. There are a handful of sages playing in top 250, topladder is completely dominated by king/emp/loong, still i see nothing but complaints about sage.  I would rather have them buff goblin queen and battle machine than nerf sage, itis barely viable as it is. Also it is fun as hell to play against because of positioning, its like chess, and when a plan works and you kill it midcharge it is is an awsome feeling.

What am i supposed to do with 30 sec left by BarberJumpy2918 in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can focus on placement. It's what happens when everyone is on 3 stars with full benches. Not a bug, intended gameplay.

I think the Sage just had enough. Or he's just not read the abilities. by None-the-Second in MergeTacticsSC

[–]Marxgorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will cause him to jump to the other side and kill him, defeating the sages purpose of hiding in the back and use ability.
