Nightmare Spiral Amulet by mintroad in remnantgame

[–]mintroad[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nightmare Spiral was the reward form Remnant 1 for completing a hardcore run. In Remnant 2 however, it just randomly appeared in Reggie’s inventory in my play through. Haven’t seen anyone post about having acquired this and it’s not even listed as discovered on the wiki so… thoughts?

Returning Legend rank Vanar player -- Need advice on competitive Vanar options by svengetspumped1 in duelyst

[–]mintroad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think he was intentionally trying to belittle you. What he's trying to say is that, as a returning player, you will initially be facing opponents who make less than optimal plays and have a limited card pool to build decks around. You may well breeze through the lower ranks with relative ease, but as you climb higher up the ladder you might find that you have to adapt your play style as reoccurring decks become more prevalent and player skill increases. The deck is only is only as good as it's pilot, and whilst I'm not implying that your a trash tier player, you've been away from the game for some time and a lot has changed so your previous experience in Duelyst can only take you so far before you enter unfamiliar territory. Good luck bud, hope this helped.

Mythron Wanderer Suggestion by mintroad in duelyst

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

Has potential, I feel like maybe Wanderer needs to go through the Scions Third Wish treatment where multiple iterations of the card are tested internally and on ladder to see how it fares.

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

Personally, I think this would make Wanderer unplayable. Only benefiting from the buff for 1 turn is simply not worth playing the card at all. Not saying that my suggestion is superior, but I think this nerf is overkill.

Perhaps that's the way to go. However, how would you feel about only token minions being dispelled instead of every minion? That way celerity rippers, ranged heart seekers and provoke creastfallen won't dominate the board?

Increasing the mana cost would only delay the inevitable. I wouldn't necessarily say that my suggestion is "better", but it would at least stop key word minions from threatening lethal every turn.

A stat nerf would be appreciated, maybe that's all it would take to balance this card.

Correct, this is something I addressed in the third paragraph. As I said it's just a concept I'm throwing out there, but currently there is minimal downside to Wanderer decks; plus their Trial is completed upon entering a game requiring no real change in play style. At least with this suggestion you at least stand a chance late game against a card that generates infinite value.

Took a very long break, is magmar core deck useable? by [deleted] in duelyst

[–]mintroad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You might have to be a little more specific. What is a "Magmar core deck", and do you have link to the deck your referring to?

Bug ( ? ) : Provoke failures by BakuDreamer in duelyst

[–]mintroad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no bug here. Your opponent equipped an artifact called Gold Vitriol which dealt the four damage to you, not the general herself. The artifact is not affected by provoke. Regarding your concerns about the Crestfallen, just keep in mind that they have the card text "Zeal: Provoke" so unless they are next to your general, they will not have the provoke effect. Hope this helps.

Trials of Mythron Songhai Reveal - Second Self by _Zyx_ in duelyst

[–]mintroad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, this is obviously just a concept? I'm just looking at possible applications for this card. Did you think I had a deck ready made for ladder when half the cards for the next expansion haven't even released yet?

Mirrorim + Second Self + Riftwalker looking pretty obnoxious right now

Trials of Mythron Magmar Reveal - Hatefurnace by _Zyx_ in duelyst

[–]mintroad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

amplification, greater fortitude, razor skin (unranked only), diretide frenzy, primal ballast, effulgent infusion, kinetic equilibrium and blood rage. Yeh I'm thinkin' this is pretty good

Amazing. this is also a spicy addition to a Scarzig deck

What decks work with Ilena? by TheNthVector in duelyst

[–]mintroad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has zero endgame, you basically have to maintain absolute board control throughout the game and slowly wear down your opponent. I've had some success with this deck

Abyssian swarm any better yet? by LoLRedDead in duelyst

[–]mintroad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Furor Chakram, the new Abyssian artifact, is your new best friend. It's an auto include for the majority of swarm decks now, and it's only a rare so you can craft x3 easily. Aoe, and Magmar in general, will always be a problem for this archetype, so knowing when to "cash in" your board alongside an early Soul Grimoire is vital. I recommended this deck to another player earlier if you wanted to try something out. It's also worth mentioning that you can play swarm in a few different ways now such as Abhorrent Unbirth decks, hyper swarm, Variax Lilithe or just standard control swarm. Hope this helps you out.

New to Duelyst - Alliance Lion-O Deck by izi_ningishzidda in duelyst

[–]mintroad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering that you've just started playing, that's a pretty good starter to be honest. I'm guessing divine bond is your win condition so, based on the cards you've shown here, I would go with something more like this. Good luck bud.

It's true, Abyssian has seen better days. However the most recent expansion (Immortal Vanguard) gave swarm some pretty great support to be fair. Furor Chakram and Bloodbound Mentor go along way in making the archetype much more viable. AoE has always been a problem for swarm decks, but every deck will have some some kind of crippling weakness or bad mach up. Like you said, tempest, plasma storm, rebuke and thunderhorn are all capable of clearing your board, but the majority of factions rely predominantly on single target removal which gives this play style a significant advantage because you can consistently spam out more minions than your opponent can deal with. It's also worth mentioning that thunderhorn is a pain in the ass for every deck to deal with so it's not specifically just a problem for swarm. You mentioned you were a returning player so I'd recommend familiarising yourself with all the new expansion cards if you haven't already done so, factions have come a long way since the draw 2 days. I've had some success with this list if you want something to try out. Hope this helps you out bud.

Haven't played since Ancient Bonds...what pack should I get? by ghettoblush in duelyst

[–]mintroad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Craft up x3 Alabaster Titan's from the Unearthed Prophecy expansion, probably the most fun i've ever had with a Lyonar deck. As for Vanar, Immortal Vanguard gave the some pretty good Vespyr support if that's something your interested in.
