Card Discussion Drogon

#3

It’s a strong card, as I predicted. It’s also basically the same card which I proposed at a card design contest before RotB, so I particularly like it :slight_smile:

It seems none is using Drogon today, me included, but this thread makes me want to use it again. I used to run it in my Combo Vaath deck, but it’s admittedly a strong card by itself. I think it’s balanced, I would not adjust it in any way.

I’m fine with Duelyst having OTKs as long as they are not too abusive. Combo decks are fun to play, but they can be boring to play against when they completely shut down control strategies. Having a very limited number of “shit, move on” matchups is one of the strengths of Duelyst and I’d like to see it preserved

Wait, do you mean the combo deck beating the control deck? If so, please post the deck in question using this, and elaborate exactly how to make the Vanar and Vet. players start crying.

#5

It’s an old deck, buried here somewhere. I need to rebuild it and test it in the new meta, I will be happy to try it out soon and disclose the final result.

In the meanwhile, if you want to see Vanar cry, go for Burn Starhorn, using the Decimus Spike combo. That deck has insane face damage and limited board presence, which counters Vanar lack of healing and tons of removals.

Gah! I’m torn between trying to complete my Songhai midrange deck with 3 painters and battle pandos to make it to diamond, but I also want to try a new faction. What’s a guy to do…

Well I do already have two Manakator Jesus’s and three Kujata’s, but I also have two aspect of the mountains for Vanar…wait! No, I won’t submit to the temptation of your false gods! All praise our lord and savior Zendo the Grandmaster, may his name be hollowed and his divinity conquer over all others. His name will be spread to all 4 corners until you all recognize his greatness.

I’m surprised the player who plays Mech-Dance of dreams says kujata isn’t played :stuck_out_tongue:

Hopefully this is a fellow Songhai main making the correction. If not… my god commands me to commit seppuku to atone for my foolishness.

Wait you still play Vet? I thought you quit using it after Phayze expelled you?

#16

NOOOOOO!! Wait, I have just been visited by his holy hallowedness, he says I can also atone by co-populating this heathen planet in his name…well seppuku it is.

jk

#17

no i just don’t talk to phayze anymore /s

In all seriousness, vetruvian is just the most fun to me, and that’s all there is to it.
