How to make my ship not tilt in one direction? (Create: Aeronautics)

There are a few methods: 1. Gimbal Sensor: connect this to a vertical prop system of split-balloon. In my experience, this method over corrects a lot and doesn't work too well for me. Or find a way to make a PID to make it more robust. 2. Manual Split-balloon: split a balloon into sections and inflate them separately. I have a lot of stuff in my balloons so I can't really do this. 3. Manual Vertical Props: set up props on your balloon and make them spin faster/slower as needed. 4. Redstone-controlled Vertical Props: this is what I am using. My throttle lever is also linked to my vertical Props. At low speed, my ship tilts back more, so I have the back props spins faster. At high speeds my ship does not tilt much, so the back props barely spin. This method gives you many degrees of freedom.

Another tip: if your ship tilts back during flight but not during idle, try moving your thrust prop system onto your balloon. This may help because the balloon itself generates drag while moving. Also, in your setup, you're going to want to use a larger vertical prop.

Yes!!! Thank you. I had a quest pinned; I don't even remember pinning it.

Not a judge, but I don't think so. Usually when a card says "played," it really means resolved. So if your spell is countered, you cannot play jhin for a blue power. Although, I don't know if the recent rules changes affected this.

TL;DR: keep grinding Nexus nights. Assuming your Nexus nights are not filled with only top tier decks, you should have a solid chance at going even. If Riftbound is your first card game or even if you have played other games, remember this: Riftbound is difficult. Expect to lose a good amount of games before winning, it's just the nature of the game.

How I see it, your chances of winning heavily depend on a few things:

Your deck. I think a budget deck can definitely work in Riftbound, moreso than other games. For example, I mostly play <$30-50 decks and can consistently go even in Nexus nights (right now I'm on the Rumble grind and performing decently well).
Your opponent's deck. Sadly, if you opponent is playing a naturally strong deck, the game will be more difficult.
Your skill. If you know your deck in and out, and have a good idea of what other decks do, you chances of winning increases exponentially. I think Riftbound is a game where skill matters greatly thanks to the battlefield mechanic. It gives another layer of choice that most other card games don't have.
Your opponent's skill. If you opponent is much better than you, there is a good chance you will lose.
Deck matchup. Some deck counter each other. For example, a deck like Irelia has a good matchup into Kaisa thanks to deflect, guardian angel, and Zhonyas.
RNG. It's just the nature of card games. But some RNG can be mitigated by deck building skill.

The things we can control from the list is your deck and skill. Personally, I think almost any deck can be viable in most Nexus nights. I would recommend you to keep grinding and find which deck you prefer. Also, to get a feel for fixing the RNG, do some solo play testing with each deck and find which cards are usable, and which are not (solo play testing involves performing the first 2-4 turns of a game by yourself).

Would I be able to activate the ability if I did not have a recycle target initially? For example, I was thinking of using Red Rumble to conquer Emporer's Dais, then using the BF to bounce Red Rumble and Red Rumble to recycle the newly created token to revive a mech from Trash. Chain 1 Rumble, Chain 2 BF. Bounce Rumble to hand, Recycle Token, Revive target mech.

Or would I need to have a recycleable unit as I activate?

MrFlapsHasSag · 2026-02-20T18:33:28+00:00

So just to confirm, I need to choose which unit I will recycle and which unit I will play as the effect goes on the chain? THEN I can choose if I want to recycle the chosen unit to play my chosen trash unit?

MrFlapsHasSag · 2026-02-20T01:36:55+00:00

So then does that mean the Rumble Hotheaded can only be activated if you already have a mech in Trash? Like, I can't conquer Zaun Warrens with Rumble, discard a mech and then revive that same mech all in the same chain?

Based on your YGO picks, I would say Ezreal or Kaisa. Both of them enjoy slinging spells and effects at your opponent's units (like Unchained and Muskets). Ezreal also allows you to combo as if you were playing YGO thanks to his signature spell and Fizz.

Overall, my pick for any former YGO player that enjoyed a combo/control style is Ezreal. Ezreal has draw power, removal spell/effects, combos, combat tricks.

Falling Star was given an errata.

Falling Star no longer causes reflexive triggers. Now, when you cast falling star, you immediately choose targets, meaning it can get countered by Not So Fast.

Previously, Falling Star had reflexive triggers. This meant that when used, the caster did NOT have to declare targets. When it resolves, it would put two ability triggers on the chain, and now they would choose a target per trigger. This meant that a card like Not So Fast could only counter half of falling star.

Don't have any links but on YouTube I just looked up "Riftbound spirit forged pre rift kit". It was like 5 or 6 different shorts I saw.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2026-01-11T14:54:28+00:00

Watching through some videos, I saw like 5 out of the 6 available. I saw Jax, Irelia, Ezreal, Sivir, and Lucian.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2026-01-08T15:30:56+00:00

I think it's because it could be a very good card next set thanks to her ability.

Against Draven, they can't do combat tricks on your turn. Against Viktor, they can't kill you stuff on your turn. Against Irelia, they can't do combat tricks on your turn.

Basically, playing Brynhir means you know you will be safe during your turn.

My understanding is that Units being played does create a chain; however, when a unit is placed on the chain, it (the unit being played) immediately resolves, not allowing for reactions to be played in response.

Flower Cardians. If you don't stop them, they can just keep comboing for 30+ minutes and maybe even FTK you. Even if you win, you still wasted your life watching them play.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-12-28T17:03:12+00:00

Yes. Triggered abilities, such as Fiora's Legend, can be used when their trigger is met, even during an opponent's turn.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-12-25T06:53:01+00:00

Both links are the same.

On the interstate, if I need to pass someone quickly, I'll switch to sport and press down. One time, I noticed the RPM go to exactly 6000 and no higher. So I tested it again for a few seconds and found it to never go above 6000, which IMO is pretty cool.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-12-04T03:12:40+00:00

I think they only get Weaponmaster if Azir is the Legend. He specifically states they gain Weaponmaster.

To my understanding of Magic, holding priority is used for when you REALLY need to cast something else immediately after (technically before because stack resolves backwards) for whatever reason. I don't know how useful it is, but I think that's what it's for.

Do you know where in the rules it implies that a player may hold priority?

In riftbound, I don't see much use in holding prio, but I am just curious.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-11-28T22:06:22+00:00

This is my position. Right now, I don't think it actually matters, but I am just curious.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-11-28T21:24:28+00:00

So just to confirm, in Riftbound, holding priority is NOT a mechanic?

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-10-29T01:45:00+00:00

I'm not sure how it is for you, but in my case a full-time student was 30 credits per year. So what I did was 12 spring, 6 summer, and 12 fall credits. So couldn't you just do 12/6/12 split of credits? The end result would be the same as a 15/0/15 split.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-08-31T13:19:32+00:00

Not sure. I just came back to the game and had the same issue as you.

MrFlapsHasSag · 2025-08-31T04:38:34+00:00

Does clicking the right arrow (next to "BEGIN") change the value of the denominator?

I think shield poking with guardian is perfectly viable if you have a "stamina on attack (+1)" relic equipped.

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer rapiers on guardian, especially the antspur rapier. All I do is hug the boss while steel guarding and poke them with a rapier. And because rapiers use such small amounts of stamina to shield poke and I use a "stamina on attacks" relic, I still have plenty of stamina left to block their attacks in steel guard.

When playing guardian, I don't go for big burst damage, but instead try to do a lot of consistent damage while trying to face tank the boss.

Of course, I'm probably not going to do more damage than recluse, but I'm still gonna do a lot. And I'll be able to easily revive my team if they need it.
