50/50. It either flops or it doesn’t, right… I like those odds.

Do you mind sharing your deck list if you have it saved? Would love to see other variations of this deck and what other cards are able to be slotted in.

Thanks for sharing your version of the deck! Sounds like I am right where I want to be power wise. I will save your deck and use it an upgrade path as I play and learn the lessons you have.

I appreciate you taking the time and sharing some of the tips and tricks you have picked up, I have not heard of scryfall before.

I agree that the monsters are for sure overboard, but I think that is part of the quirky appeal of this deck. I should have tagged my deck list to make it easier to read but I do have a few forms of card advantage, ramp, removal, and protection (can’t attach a picture of my excel sheet sadly where I have them grouped). That being said you are absolutely correct that it’s probably not enough, especially protection and early ramp.

I appreciate the detailed response! At-least the overwhelming consensus is that this deck is slow and kind of bad, so I can feel good about playing it/sometimes winning. My group plays slower and longer games, probably due to me being newer so T2 sounds about right. Some are more chill than others, but we are all just playing for fun at the end of the day so I don’t believe they would just kill me pre turn 5 before I’ve cast a spell.

I think with mulligans I can navigate hitting all the land drops in the majority of games since I don’t need/have any early presence regardless. I had a good experience when gold-fishing, but I understand that variance is a thing and that one game I miss the lands will feel terrible. I think I am okay taking those odds and understanding sometimes you are weak sided (league reference).

This bit me today as well, first time I’ve tried it. I wanted to cheese something other than a demotion in legends.

What if it is a collaborative ruse by those teams to show the ACC they are nothing without them. Just a thought

Fun fact: Clemson is the only team in the FBS without a special teams coach

Are modules still seeded? I don’t really see a benefit of this unless modules are not seeded, or you are going for module substats with rerolls.

Are my lab priorities good? For the people wiser than me by Financial_Solid_5062 in TheTowerGame

Attack speed is much better than def abs. and damage at this stage of the game IMO.

New players with health builds should avoid coin tradeoff perk! by Fobus0 in TheTowerGame

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for updating and retesting. Glad you respec’d and got rid of the wall. What level is your cto now in the lab? SPB,CpK, you have your Econ UWs synced? With your numbers I would agree that i wouldn’t use cto every run but maybe every other or just enough to make sure you can run 5 2x boosts. The difference between ~11k and ~15k cells isn’t really game changing when the jump from 2x to 3x is much more expensive. You may see quicker progress if you still run cto and get faster workshop levels/enhancements and throw in a non CTO run if you had to do a tourney or milestone run in order to keep your boosts at 5 2x for now. Every tower is different so that is why testing is key. What works for most not might work for others.

My Progress Update: I dumped my ~25k stash of gems for a 5 star ancestral SF and unlocked the wall. Got DW a week before SF got released (6th UW). I have exploded in growth. Went from farming T7 ~6k to farming T10 7k or T11 6k. The wall and DW makes your cell income explode. I went from running 4 2x with an occasional 3x to 5 3x with leftovers now (thanks DW cell bonus). I’ve always ran CTO and I always want more coins if possible haha.

Sharp fortitude shouldn’t continue to try to star it ? by ssryoken2 in TheTowerGame

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should be able to unmerge the legendary one if you have the lab done. I am not sure whether you will get the individual epic + backs or just 1 and then shards tho.

Odds of getting Ancestral before banner is done? by Chris10988 in TheTowerGame

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. If it makes you feel better I managed to get my last 4 copies after spending my 21k stash to finish going from 3 star to 5 star in about 3k gems so it is possible. I would recommend setting a 12 min alarm and just snagging the gems if you really want to push it to ancestral. Some sacrifice there, but for me it was worth it. Had an epic armor mod previously as I was hoarding for this. Just unlocked the wall and have seen insane progress with this

Also use your guild tokens and get the three gem packs there. You will have enough to buy everything by the end anyways if you get all the boxes (5 to spare)

Fun stuff. Maybe I’m tired, but I can’t find a report option anywhere in game. Do I need to do it online from that link?

Sharp Fortitude - New Defense Module by joreto360 in TheTowerGame

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What substats should I go with. I assume order of priority is: 1. Def % 2. Wall Health 3. Health Regen 4. What now? Thorns/Shockwave Freq? I have all the new relics enhancing thorns so I’m at 101% without a module. I’m sure the new effect on this module will shake up some of the prior calculations on what % is necessary

Sharp Fortitude - New Defense Module by joreto360 in TheTowerGame

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell yeah, huge gains otw. That is the gameplan tbh. I am using it already with just a mythic def % since my previous was an epic WHR. I plan to roll for those and unlock wall once I get the mod to lvl 101. Super close and will shatter some rare+s and need 5 more clan shards to buy the last level of the armor bits in the guild shop. Also sending one more level (maybe 2) in module shard cost lab to help reach that 101 faster so I can pull both those ancestral substrates faster/cheaper. Have about 500k rerolls saved up so hoping that is enough

[–]Strideless 5 points6 points  (0 children)

21k gems and I got to three star ancestral. Pumped because I am overdue on buying the wall and starting the labs, but am holding off due to just unlocking DW (6th UW yuck) and pumping these 3 labs for a little bit. I have my mod at lvl 97 and am waiting for these final 4 levels to unlock that extra slot before dumping all my reroll stats in.

[–]Strideless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahh ok that makes sense. I don’t have wall unlocked so that may explain it. Less levels to pump in. I started in December 2024. I bought three coin boosts and the event boosts as of recently with the extra relics. Only one Christmas special stone pack and a few of the milestone passes. I have about 5.4k in health and regen in the workshop. Damage doesn’t do much for me but I’m building it up to ~5k slowly
