Discovering Corpse Explosion - My Adventures in Gods Unchained

Hello Gods Unchained Fans,

I have been playing Gods Unchained now for just over a month and I wanted to give an update on my progress in this great game. Having looked around and tested out a few of the card games, I have found Gods Unchained tricky to get started in, but great fun to play.

You can see that I have been playing with the Zombie deck. Up until 2 weeks ago, I tweaked my deck a little with the Cursed Obelisks which has enabled me to compete at my current ranking of Midnight Shadow, but not enabled me to get fully into Auric Gold. Just as I almost reach Auric Gold, I get a crushing defeat that needs me to start again.

I have also started to build my Light deck but as you can see, the first results are not promising. I have some ideas for my 2nd/3rd deck, so will see what I can put together in the coming weeks.

Last week I managed to get 8 wins from 18 that got me 3 packs earlier in the week. Ideally, I need to get at least 11 wins to get an MJ Rare. So far this weekend, I have started off with 3 wins from 3, but it is still early doors yet.

It was a shame that I didn't record it, butmy last battle was an absolute corker I must say. For the first time in a match, I ran out of cards.. it was crazy and I managed to get my opponent down to just 1 mana. He had cards in his hand and could increase his god health on the next turn. I was COMPLETELY out of cards to play, none in my hand, none on the board, what could I do?

With 15 health myself, the game was surely mine, I just needed to clear 1 mana of his health. Luckily, my god power was Soulburn which would make us both lose 1 health point and I managed to claim a victory, but that was very close.

On closer inspection, it could be seen that my $17 deck beat a $345 deck by the skin of my teeth! With this in mind, it made me sure that it was time to make some further upgrades to my deck that will hopefully carry me through to Auric Gold and beyond.

Looking at my current deck, you can see that it has a 52% win rate and I have clocked up 102 wins with it. I can honestly say that this deck is a lot of fun to play with and is great as a starter deck if you are looking for one.

The deck code is: GU_1_1_CCcCCcIBxIBxKCBKCBIBZIBZCDSCDSIBJIBJIADIADCEaCEaIAJIAJCDTCDTIACIACIAKIAKCCeCCeKCRCAgCAgIBP

Now the cards that I was looking at to make some improvements are :

The question is, which ones do I replace them with.. first of all, I cloned my deck to keep the original one and then made the following changes:

Replace Skeletal Hoplite with Petulant Firespreader
Replace Fickle Cambion with Chiroptic Hemovore
Replace Cursed Hoplite with Corpse Explosion
Replace Cursed Hoplite with End Times

The final deck then looks like this:

This is the first deck I have created in GUDecks. You can access the deck here or use the deck code:

GU_1_1_CCcCCcCFACFACDSCDSIBZIBZKCBKCBCDTCDTIADIADIAJIAJKDEKDEIACIACCCeCCeIAFIAKIAKCAgCAgKCRIBPCCa

I then went and bought the cards from Token Trove as I didn't already have them yet.

source

I bought them using GODS tokens because I have so far won 33 GODS and these cards didn't cost very much. The most expensive was End Times that cost 1.1 GODS (~$0,28). Once my cards were all purchased, I then imported the deck using the code into the actual Gods Unchained game and was ready to play.

I noticed an improvement in my deck straight away with more options opening up to play. The new Corpse Explosion and End Times cards are just so epic.

Today I have recorded a game with me playing the Corpse Explosion card. I played it a little too early, but it was still very effectivie. The first time I played the card, I didn't have any Zombies on the board. LOL.

Now was the second time that I have used the card and I figured out that I should have first attacked with the cards on the board and then done the explosion to get a double-whammy attack and really finish my opponent, but anyway it still worked.

With the new upgrades to my deck, it has given me a couple of more options to finish off some of my more powerful opponents and I am looking forward to putting into action.

What do you think? Do you like the Corpse Explosion Card?

Like in many play2earn games, there are many ways to earn in Gods Unchained. I have been playing regularly and stacking the $GODS tokens and have accumulated 33 so far. I also have been winning packs and when I get two copies of a card, I can then "forge" it and either keep it or sell it.

So far, as you can see, I have 523 plain cards earned in the game and my minted cards on-chain are 76. These are worth $34,29 and is, $37,13 if I forge the cards. I did however buy my first zombie and light deck though, so this is also included in the $ value.

I have forged a few cards and listed them for sale to boost my $GODS tokens. Usually two or three cards per week, which will add up over time I think. I will keep an eye on this and see how it works out.

As I mentioned earlier, I have also bought a light deck. It is this one created by Patch. So far I have only played it three times and didn't manage to win yet. I am not used to playing light and need to play around with it a bit more and possibly make some changes.

I am not sure if a War or Nature deck might be more suitable for me, but I will check this one out first and try and see if I can bag my first wins. After some chatting with @cyberdexter on his stream, I think I have a couple of cards that might be worth upgrading, but I will cover that in a future post.
