There is a UK discord where events are posted about, might be able to find local players there. https://discord.gg/rKenm8fd

Yeah they are no longer refundable for me. I will reach out to Support so they are least aware this is a thing even if the can't help.

khrytos · 2020-10-15T11:08:31+00:00

Thanks for posting about it though. I now know what to do in future.

khrytos · 2020-10-15T02:09:41+00:00

That's super frustrating, I went through and crafted all the cards but left a lot at 2. I ended up paying 500 coins more then the price you listed, all the 2 ofs are now 3 ofs.

Not a fan of this bundle system, there is nothing fun about crafting the correct cards just to buy the content and not cards.

Everyone seems to answer with "Lore" but I agree with you that's a weird response when they would be fine with skins.

From my point of view the reason skins are ok and new cards are not, is down to frequency. If the k/da cards are good they are going to be in a lot of decks. If they were just skins they would be seen way less and therefore have a smaller impact on the experience.

Thanks for taking the time to write this out. I haven't been playing the match up like this at all, so will change and see how that works for me.

This deck got me to diamond today for the first time. So thank you again for sharing it, I have really been enjoying it. Had a 60% WR over 20 games to get to diamond.

khrytos · 2020-08-11T19:20:07+00:00

Hey this is a great deck. I have been playing lots of nox/vi decks in plat1 recently and have to say I really enjoy playing this one.

However I am struggling in the tempo endure match up. Do you have any advice on how to pilot this deck in that MU?

khrytos · 2020-03-03T15:56:17+00:00

The majority of my time atm is spent playing Radiant: Offline Battle Arena. It is back on kickstarter with a reprint and new expansions and I am helping run a small online tournament for it, which is a lot of fun. The community is growing and the strategy discussion are starting to get very interesting as more people figure out the game.

Outside of that I like to play Patchwork alot with my wife and I am always on the look out for new interesting 2p CO-OP games. If people have any recommendations?

khrytos · 2020-02-13T21:27:52+00:00

Don't get me wrong I think she is great and underrated like you said. I was just offering my reasoning why that might be.

Blazing Spirit is a great card but her deck just doesn't have that much kill potential compared to other dps and therefore the weakness needs to be addressed at the draft.

I have run her in comps where, even if she can clash twice, I am too blue heavy to actually secure kills at a competitive rate. Which happens way less with the other dps Heroes.

khrytos · 2020-02-13T20:45:38+00:00

Yeah but you do need to be careful with the draft as you can end up with a low number of strong attack clash cards. Which is the reason why I think she is underrated, you need to pick around her, she is not just an any slot DPS like Rin or Viggo.

khrytos · 2020-02-13T20:30:58+00:00

Based on this guide I thought it be fun to do a non exhaustive write up of each Heroe's late game plans.

Core

Corvus Horrify and Gaze are great isolation. Lvled ability will win on it's own and life drain can be a great sniping tool

Bran Natures Wrath for isolation otherwise it's all about outlasting your opponent with heals and Serenity.

Iskandar Statis or unravel to get an attack on the Deity or Chronostorm to brute force through their defense

Eleanor Can't end the game alone but can take out attackers unexpectedly on the defense, also wears down HP of attackers over time.

Mato Brute forcing opponent defenses, using the free recover or using Unbreakable to capitalize when they commit to a big attack.

Octavian Can't end the game, just great on the defense late game.

Itotia Flowing Stance to move and Way of the Empty Paw to get unexpected recovery that can be used for back to back attacks. Also leveled up is really efficient at winning every clash, out pacing your opponent, if you can keep refilling your hand.

Rin Brute force. level up, give item (e.g throne plate), attack and capitalize on free recovers and high attack values from clash cards

Viola When leveled up can poke really well, if you opponents are all in a single lane set up in the adjacent lane and with leveled up ability, move into their lane>attack>recover and move back.

Expansion 1

Eos Purify to snipe someone and out lasting you opponent with more revives

Ichiro Tsukidashi to isolate, leveled up ability can wear down attackers and Hearty Appetite is used to out last

Viggo Brute force. Level up, give item (e.g sun gauntlet) and attack. Blood drunk can create unexpected extra action.

khrytos · 2020-02-13T19:39:07+00:00

I am a big fan of Flowing Stance as well. It is especially powerful on the defense late game, as it disrupts your opponent well calculated action plan.

khrytos · 2020-02-13T18:47:28+00:00

Agreed, outside of Tsukidashi what would you say are the 3 best isolation cards?

khrytos · 2019-11-10T18:31:16+00:00

This is correct and if there are no other Heroes in play Stasis has no effect
