I started in Bracket II and with that begin in bronze league. When I start I usually go on a win streak and stop playing after my first lost. For this season I was able to get 34 wins before my first lost. Now it may sound amazing but considering its a low bracket and playing in Bronze the competition is not as fierce. Yet this is a reason why I wanted to play in the lower brackets.
With my first lost in Survival for this season my win percentage is down to 97.2%. I will likely end up lower in win percentage but goal is to reach in top 100 for end of season rewards. The rewards include a card and Glint for top players.
For those who do not play Survival and wondering what card could be possibility to be won is shown above, Darkguard Hellion. I don't often use the card but having multiple splinter makes it unique in my collection.
On another tactic I do when playing Survival is I often use the same cards in multiple matches. However the card is likely lost in battle even if I win. With that I tend to keep cards at base level and to have multiple of them to continue using the card in matches to increase my chances of winning.
You see in the lower brackets the monsters max level allowed is capped. Therefore no benefits in leveling up a card if max level of use is hit.
Like for instance neutral card Ujurak Elder. I have multiple gold foil version of this card and play it through matches but since its life is low at one or two I tend to lose the card in battles.
In fact I have lost more than a dozen gold foil Ujurak Elder in my initial push to get 34 win streak. This is only one hour of cool down but losing that many cards leaves my more vulnerable to losing. The gold version has level 3 as base which is cap level for the card when used in bracket II. I tend to use multiple gold foil cards in matches to maintain play and do not slow down as I have multiple of them.
Once I am out of a card I simply end play for the day and return the following day to have full use of all my cards again as cool down is also reduced at lower brackets. These are main reasons for my to play Survival under a lower bracket. Sure I may not win as much in prizes but still winning and earning each season.
Tell me what strategies do you use to play Survival and do you win enough to make it worth your wild?
