Re: Today's Challenge

After 6-7 tries, I finally beat it, and I have to say I just don't think the deck they give the player is good at all.  Even when I beat it, I never felt like, "Oh!  I understand how the deck works now!"  Rather, I was just happy that the Cosmic Bean FINALLY conjured something useful, rather than just another Cosmic Bean (which happened three games in a row, and each of those games, the conjured Cosmic Bean conjured another Cosmic Bean.)

    Oh, yeah.  If I could have survived to turn 8, I'm sure the deck would have won, but the opponent's deck wasn't really designed around a long game.

    Not all premade decks are equal but they are definitely designed to make money unfortunately from players who jump before they learn to play. I may be different from the norm, but every card i have no use for I recycle. Being unable to trade since we don't have physical decks there have been so many legendary cards that I lose due to having a set. Worst example for me is the 4 bananasaurus I own on top of a full dozen recycled...so anything I don't use I recycle for sparks for legendary i do want. Only one regret was i had 3 zombot sharks and I cashed one in to get something and although I have never considered 3 in a deck...still
  • Is it just me, or is today's deck like 90% cards with 3+ cost?  Half the games I've played so far, I'm dead the same turn I get my very first plant out.  -_-

    I don't know if it's actually the case or not, but it just seems as if the pre-made decks in the challenges the past few weeks have just gotten worse and worse.  If their goal is to make me want to actively AVOID ever using the pre-made decks, they're doing an excellent job of it.

    The deck we are using is green shadows first premade. Lotta high cost craptastic cards I think but I beat it 3rd try. Got lucky and had 3 snowpeas early and a couple black eyes. Then i lucked out with onion rings on turn five and threepeas 4/4 ftw. But i was dead that turn if I didn't hit for 8 with it
  • @jj48car - aggro decks are definitely the meta right now. either clique peas or decks designed to keep up with CP

    Yeah, I kind of wish they'd tell me what deck the opponent is using, because those tend to be much more synergistic.

    With four hours left to beat citron I finally got it done and the lamest thing was that it was totally different from what all the rest of the games that I got beat...
    The first couple I got beat terrible and I don't think that I even got three hits on the hero in those first two games
    I don't think that that is all that fun when I have to more or less wait until they get a bad draw, and I get a decent one

    I would like to see more of the one turn puzzles or even a couple mini games or whatever's not completely relying on the randomness to be lucky for me and bad for vs hero.
    And to be "showcasing" go nuts and the imp-throwing-imp, almost every game on first turn galactic cactus throws go nuts upfront as a blocker to die and they avoid i-t-i like he has the plague(or at very least deadly..).
    I have found that the showcase plant/zombie are usually better off as fodder in the situation that they've been put into or they work crazy because they maybe normally can't work with each other. What I mean by that is like a first turn atomic bombagranate or something like that
