Which is why it's still balanced

#

The vast majority of players still don't have the pcs in their inventory to generate the wins

#

It's not gonna shake up mismatches

#

It's gonna balance battles that should be close anyway

You can't make a 23/1/1 deck without 23 pcs

Kong is gonna lose money in this one. Now you don’t have to put 1000’s of dollars into 1 box. It doesn’t matter anymore

Then once the box leaves they'll revert boost back

Tell me your joking.

#

Should this really win v this opponent?

#

An that's a pure junk deck I'm running. 😆

#

Told ppl for years. You only need so many of the right pcs. Not this full 35 junk.

"we haven't changed our decks"

I guess that Leela is in there for moral support then?

Given that every battle I lost across three different islands was because of boost combos before I could, I know for a fact you guys have

#

We'll see in 4 weeks when whole guild is on board.

#

Friday 29th November last time we did a full guild change decks.

tough slate
#

I never implied that everybody had... I'm saying that there are some boost decks out there already so some have changed decks

ember trench
#

Yea after it was over. I'm genuinely shocked we this close.

#

I'm sure if I looked deep enough in our siege chats there would be screenshots from very early on too... That was just the first one I came across after this discussion

#

Get a better idea in rematch. You guys I know are strong so no shame in a loss.

I don't have the patience to scroll through 1000 messages though

This makes game play to just play as many stalling cards as you can so you can make a boost combo and hope the AI doesn't combo a boost combo before you do, unless they make a boost combo right away. Just ups the RNG and makes even less engaging game play than ever before, it's as dumb as the era when people used 35 card pc decks and tried to play a gas card in slot 1 and then played an entire deck just to win on the end

#

Crazy thing is I virtually need nothing new now bar some characters 😆

tough slate
#

The old methods of beating pc decks still work too .. it just gives more options

#

OMB decks can still get trounced by the likes of cocktail lana and if anything adding the boost combo pieces makes it weaker

#

Source: me in arena currently

#

Omb was hot garbage now anyway especially off bge.

#

116/7? Just isn't enough health v the good stuff.

tough slate
#

And clearly the boost decks aren't a guaranteed win else everybody would be above 3000... The only time RNG is a factor is if you're attacking into a boost deck with a boost deck. In which case, you're just as much the problem

#

SYG have had just as many players winning with the old methods too

ember trench
#

You could get to 3k easy with time. I'm currently 2.6k and loads of those crappy 0 mythic decks come up.

#

I don't like it. Needs fixed.

tough slate
#

Once the bodyguard buff has gone away, I'll be farming all the boost decks with Lana again

#

But any sniff of an art pc for me ATM is game over

ember trench
#

As you say loads of boost decks, me included 😆

tough slate
#

Honestly, keep the boost decks there... They're easy farm material for lana

#

Set just in time for Cyril melee too when everyone will be running fused and singles

I "consulted a friend" against that deck in clash wondering why it hit so hard and was shocked to see even the newest one nearly maxed out SUSchicken

tough slate
#

I've heard of your friend. I think they call him 🐒

celest steeple
#

He's a friendly guy helps out lots of folks

tough slate
#

Sure... Sounds like quite the legit character

#

Be careful you don't feed that green eyed monster too much though. We don't want him taking over

celest steeple
#

I'm actually not quite sure I understand the green eyed monster reference, I just want to know how you've done it 😂 . I don't know if any other account has 3 or 4 or even 5 quad fused/maxed fused mythic objects from the same bge. Much less 10. It's badass

# celest steeple I'm actually not quite sure I understand the green eyed monster reference, I jus...

I have explained it on this server before, but I will do for you again... I've cashed a mythic in every BGE in either clash/melee or ECMC for a very long time. So every object stone I picked up from milestones, rewards, bundles, boxes etc has just stashed up. When I started to realise how universal cocktail lana was in terms of rumble offense, I dropped a few thousand gems on each mythic box that came during drunk to level them all up a few more. Then went all out on my mythic object stones, prioritising any drunk objects that came. Which was much higher than RNG should be, but there we go! The wine for Dick one was almost fused just from the bge alone as I cashed literally all the events that bge, so that gave it a good start up. Even now, everytime I pull stones, I get a drunk in around 70% of pulls. It's just all luck

#

But I knew what I wanted to build and fixated on it

#

My deck to see me through every BGE

#

I think in total spent around 40k gems on it, maybe more... Idk

#

I went into each mythic drunk box until the 250 level or above, depending on the item

#

Siege PC walls pre-boost update? Cocktail Lana
Non-defensive rumble offense? Cocktail Lana
Swole? Cocktail Lana
Arena OMB Walls? Cocktail Lana

I already had the Lana's from going deep in the first Lana box

I can finally break silence after all these years. It was clawpatch fry that beat fal. I would go 10-0 against it every time once we figured it out. Boost with leela hero for the extra cheer. Feels so good to get that off my chest.

I dunno, it got complicated after people did a mix of fal and burger Hermes

Ceramic wouldn't have been part of the first gen counters though

past tiger
#

Well I didn’t have an account with fal at the beginning. I just listened to Toffer talk about fal endlessly and wish I could shoot myself

#

Well they went from level 1 to 4 or so unfused on October 12 (#general message) to quadded (#clash-melee message) 2 months later so all must have been for sale during drunk BGE in October?

#

Just on Brau Beer takes 7250 MOS to go from unfused level 4 to quad fused level 24. That's 217,900 gems in a mythic box that has the bonus (x2) MOS rewards. Just for that one. Or maybe you've got great luck to pull it that many times out of a pool of > 100. That's only 28000 mythic object stones for that one in lieu of the gems. I wish I had the patience to wait that long to do that for 10 cards and the luck to draw the objects I want when it's 3 out of >100 😂

#

I was hoping there was a little more to it with a trick so I could replicate it 😉 . This games jumped the shark anyway why not explore all it has to offer

tough slate
#

Sorry man. I can't be blamed for your lack of RNG luck

#

I cracked the stones to upgrade as much as possible. The fact they came more often than they didn't is out of my hands

#

It wasn't so much "patience for this day to eventually come" but more of a "there's now 10 drunk items which is enough to make a full drunk deck, and that's what I should focus on"... The same way people hoard turds for a new bge without any actual sign of one coming

#

Notice how this all. me about after cocktail Lana has been in the shop for stones at the start of October. When I realised it was the last piece I needed

I like to dabble in everything so I’m not ever particularly useful.

It’s such rng defense tho tbh

At least one shot will combo slot 1 and kill those using duals

#

@fathom vigil what's the latest on this 23/1/1 deck change 😆

#

Most boring rumble I've ever done.

tough slate
#

Sounds crazy, I know, but you could always... Not... Play it

#

If you find it so boring

ember trench
#

Well considering it's ruined the event.

#

23/1/1 is what virtually everyone attacking with.

#

Combo decks in defence are pointless just now. Sure you've already worked that out tho.

Why is this still open?

strange gazelle
#

that's what I've been saying.

#

They pretty much never do anything like that. Everyone is basically a beta tester, and there isn't any normal players.
But at least they wait till a Rumble match has already started before they implement an update.

#

what would a Krieger's Clone Brothers combo be?

eternal whale
strange gazelle
#

maybe they like hearing complaints

#

hopefully it doesn't mean that they added back the guaranteed character and object cards in hand for PCs, and then reversed it (it happens later instead of turn 1).

#

PCs with Boost are what make it bad

#

Like PCs with Boost.

#

pretty much exactly what I was saying when was announced.
