I almost lost my huge daily streak! I played versus Lorkus with strong nerf from ruleset!
Welcome Guys!
It was time to just play some games but before I even started I just wanted to see how it goes with my frontier streak. Yesterday game was offline for very long time so I didn't get my daily spin and in result I lost not my streak but shield protection I don't know how much days in a row I need to have to protect my streak once again but sometimes I have no influence what I can do in game when servers are offline.
But the most important thing for me is that I have still my daily streak!
Let's see what reward today I can get. 123 days in a row and what is the reward?
75 sparks + 19 from bonus. Nothing special at all but I have still active daily streak so this is the most important thing to me. Maybe in next days I can get better reward with sparks tokens or maybe I could challange hard level boss once again that would be nice! Really I didn't saw him for a long time so my luck is not good :D Not only that my luck with gold foil cards from chests or rarity draws is exhausted too haha :D
As you know some time ago I advanced to Division 2 and I was here for couple of battles because this is really hard place to be for a long time. So many players are here with gold level decks or just super op liquidity bots. Good that there are new rulesets and sometimes they don't know how to play yet.
When I talk about ruleset I can say that I already played versus new one which really hard nerf Lorkus buffs! Funny thing I played versus Lorkus haha so I had an occasion to see how strong is that nerf.
But let's start from finding battle I made screen from my phone.
27 mana cap, 4 colors available included fire and death which is great for Lorkus. Then Dragons are open and earth color too. So not many possibilities to play with legendary archons. I don't have Lorkus and I saw that new ruleset which really nerf him so I decided to play with some powerful strategy and we will see how it goes.
But what exactly is that new ruleset?!
In short it reduce hp after scavenging and life leech also have negative effects. So both abilities are main reason why people playing with Lorkus. Really I didn't expected to play versus this archon but bots doesn't know this new ruleset yet I guess.
Normally I will lose this match for 100% because magic really hard counter Brave Tofu archon but with that nerf from ruleset I think I have chance for a win. Second ruleset making damage to near monsters so Tofu with triage is good option I think.
So ruleset were good for me and that gives me some advantage in the battle but this is enough for a win?
I skiped battle to 4th round because early game was not so much interesting.
There is 4 monsters versus 4 monsters looks for equal match and trust me it was equal match! HAHA :D
Really I thougt that I gonna win this at this point. He lost his powerful tank because had really low hp. But there is still a ruleset which deal damage to near units and I forgot that I decided to play with divine shield to protect my frontline and healer. Maybe that was little mistake but I was scared that his sneak attack gonna kill my healer too early.
Round 6
Looks like my screen didn't show current hp maybe because my phone really slow loads all the effects but it was close battle until the end.
Round 7
I lost my healer and my second monster still deal damage to my tank. I have no triage so I can't regenerate my health points it looks for really tough ending of this battle. My opponent still have a healer on the table but he can't snowball with scavenge because of ruleset which nerf hard Lorkus in other words this gonna be battle of survival without supports! :D
The problem is I missed couple of time my ranged attack because of blind. This was something which I didn't expected.
Round 10
It looks really funny now but guess what he have faster unit and he just killed my grim and then in next round my ranged monster haha :D
I lost because of random things but I really like that battle. This was my first experience with new ruleset and now I know that I have really good chances against Lorkus in future battles if someone decide to play versus me with him or if just not use him in the battle so that means I could play versus weaker archon which could let me win game anyway. So I really like this new update because as I wrote before I don't have Lorkus now I can try to win versus him when ruleset nerf hard his abilities.
