NEW RANKED REWARDS FEATURING GWEN'S GLINT SHOP

Got some glint, handsome.png

There have been changes in the ranked rewards system, the daily focus chest have been exchanged with glint. Glints are the new currency earn by playing rank. At first I was a bit saddened with the daily focus have been removed, but when I learned that the glints earned while playing rank can be used to buy draws which also contains soulbound cards, I felt relieved. Plus, you can also exchange it into merits which can also be used to purchase items in guild store.

FARMING GLINT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FOODCAHIN


GLINT.png

As you can see I started this season at the bottom of the ranks, I refused to advance in ranks in the previous because I still get overwhelmed with the sudden increase in the rulesets, multiple skills in the enemy cards and I even encounter max cards while plaiyng in bronze ranks. I slowly try to increase my understaing of the game while building a stronger lineups from experimentations and copying and then trying my previous enemies lineups when I we its strong. Since I started playing I have always been a fan of earth elements and using more on magic. I kept spaming earth element in the previous seasons which was really fun actually, but the game does revolve only on earth element so I had to practice using other elements as well to secure more wins in the future.

WINSTREAK ON EARTH ELEMENTS

Using earth elements and magic is really fun. I do a well on low mana caps scine I always my line ups on Obsidian, Lurking Puffer, Moian Rebel and Chaos agent. This ensure that I have maxed my magic gamage with the current low mana cap, but in higher mana caps I some time lose because I don't know how to utilize hight mana cards and create a better line up for them resulting to more loses than wins. But this changed when I started using Immoratis... when I use immortalis I don't focus my attacks on magic damage, rather I utilize melee attack and would more likely to use cards with sneak.

HAVING FUN WITH WATER ELEMENTS

The second element that I have grown to liking is the water element because I can still use the line-ups with neutral cards similar to earth element. Utilization of the weapons traning really helped me win battles wether its on eart or water element.

BATTLE (3).png


Here I used KELYA FRENDUL as my summoner, since it is a low mana cap battle. For my monsters I utilized, the non-attaks cards available and the weapons training skill of DAARG DEADBLASTS to still have a considerable amount of damage despite having a low mana cap. What I learnd from this battle is that sticking to a battle strategy and then developing it constantly allows a player to increase his chance of winner battles.

SECOND BATTLE:

BATTLE (4).png


In this battle there were a lot of mana to play with and it needs a lot of time to from a suitable line-up. I was hoping that the earth element wa available during this battle because I was better at creating lineups for high manacaps there than in water element. Im using POSSIBILUS THE WISE as a summoner since its on a high mana cap battle, im not so familiar with his other skills but I like the +2 on health. LOL. And I use DJINN OSHANNUS as a frontline because of his void skill, it was alread a given in the match the magic is going to be used because of the ruleset so it was a wise move.

TRYING MY LUCK ON THE NEW RANKED REWARD SHOP

During this time I was able to get 300+ glints and wanted to see what I'll in my first draw in the new rank rewards shop. I opened to INITIATE DRAW since that's all my glints could take me hahaha.

SECOND DRAW:

This is the result of my two Initiate draw purchase with glint. I think Ill be saving up my glints to echange it into merits so I could get those juicy cards with bloodlust skills.
