Back to normal grinding this season; last season was a pain, since I hadn't played since early September, and going from silver to diamond I was hard! Now currently trying to reach Diamond, and pretty close. It seems progress gets a little bit harder with each passing league; probably because we have more and more skilled players now, and with better decks?
I still haven't purchased any Riftwatchers packs, but plan to in the near future. Nevertheless, I'm trying to familiarize with all the new cards... and you should too! There are some very useful ones even at level 1, and than can prove even more useful in the lower leagues, given the smaller investment. Take for example the rare life card, Corsair Bosun:
A high mana card, true, but starts at level 1 with reach AND reflection shield! And with 4 melee attack, not low at all for a level 1 card; add it a decent health and a strong shield, and even in higher leagues it can be a great card, at base level!
There are ton of other gems in this mini set... who knows one of them might end up in one of these giveaways? ;)
By the way, if you haven't joined a guild yet and you're a dedicated player, our guild Roaring Twenties is at level 10! If you're thinking about joining in, you can check the info on the guild page, or reach us on discord here to discuss membership!
So, and who won this week's card?
