Wulven seems much better for the strategy you're describing.

Sorry if this sounds condescending, but you are talking about playing against human players, right? And not the AI?

Maybe it would...

Both games require you to "play your cards right". Not sure how experienced you are with MtG (maybe moreso than me), but from my understanding card playing order is critically important with Magic....

My sentiments exactly.

I realize that but still think the quitting could be affecting it. Could be that players with a suboptimal hand are more likely to stay if they go first, and players who go 2nd are likely to stay if...

After getting frustrated with a recent game were the opponent appeared to stall once defeat was inevitable and then suddenly getting a defeat message, I wanted to see for myself what would happen if...

That's impressive that they were even able to make a deck that big. I just tried making the biggest deck I could and I only ended up with 97 cards. Just for kicks I tried it out with Amber and got...

My suggestions to change first strike mechanic has NOTHING to do with wanting this game to be like MtG or some other card game. For that matter I don't think anyone wants Shadow Era to become a clone...

They really just ought to change the wording and go along with the standard conventions. I'd wager a lot of players who are attracted to Shadow Era are coming from previous CCG experience.

You know this actually gives me a tiny bit of hope that First Strike might be reconsidered after all...

Let me explain. When it was brought up before about how current mechanics give advantage to...

I understand that and accounted for that when I was reading the comments, but even so I just don't get how people could come up with some of those analyses. It wasn't that hard to see mages had...

Was just reading the first page and some of the early analyses were awful. Even if they hadn't played the game much, how could someone predict Zhanna to be better than Eladwen?

I was just going to write something along the same lines. Except one tiny flaw in your argument is even if you can't play the card you can still use it as a resource. So it would be a little better...

I don't think so. RTS and turn based game are fundamentally different gametypes. That would be like asking Shadow Era to be turned into a action RPG or something. And people asking Warcraft to be...

Valiant Defender is good but there are very few situations were it works better with Logan than it would with Banebow. Logan's ability is more dependent on specific cards, and it requires 2 cards...

I also strongly dislike the first strike mechanic but it was a deliberate design decision, not done to save time coding. Even if Kyle came to the conclusion that it's not a very good mechanic, I am...

Yes, but how do you deal 1 damage to an opponent's ally once they've established board control? With the first strike mechanic anything you put down gets killed before it can do damage.

Ah okay I guess I was just looking at the cards that haven't added the little icons in the corner yet

I don't see how Logan is so good. You have to sacrifice a weenie to use it, and that's only if you can get your weenie out before the opponent can get their allies out. The only good card I can think...

This is probably a dumb question, but I never saw anywhere what determines who can equip which weapons. Is it in the rules, will there be text on the weapon, will the weapons be made class specific,...

Just curious, but those games you played Zhanna against mages, about what ranking were those and did the mage decks have more than 30 cards? I experimented with Zhanna a bit and I found Zhanna/mage a...

I'm glad to hear it's based on actions, not turns. Thanks for being involved with the forums. Even if people don't agree with certain decisions, I think they're much more understandable when you...

You know when you laugh really hard and you accidentally let out a snort? Yeah you just made me do that.

Thanks for that AnAdolt!

I agree with you to an extent, but come on, just look at some of the abilities. Even with the nerf Eladwen is getting, imagine if this was a card:

Automatically goes in your hand on turn 4,...

Ugggggghhhh I want to believe this is a joke but I think you're actually serious....
