Minion Masters: Stormbringer 'Guild' v3

-
Divine Warrior has been nerfed. Ok, ok, officialy she's been tweaked i.e. mana cost reduced from 5 to 4 but immunity's duration reduced from 8s to 5s. That's a nerf to me and it's proven by the fact that many decks were broken. Hence, I had to change them after testing them out.

The previous Stormbringer 'Guild' build had 2 copies of Divine Warrior. The current build is as follows:

(1) Illusory Cleaver: cheap to capture bridge and can kill minion(s) with less than 30hp
(2) Screaming Scrat: cheap to capture bridge, great at taunting enemies to buy time (for your minions to kill them, for you to get enough mana to summon appropriate minion(s) to kill them, etc)
(3) Wall: cheap great defense
(4) Daggerfall
(5) Plasma Marines
(6) Xiao Long
(7) Wheel of Doom: great for killing medium minions, especially Wolf Among Sheep before the transformation (werewolves are the troublesome minions to deal with at the moment)
(8) Whirly Scrat
(9) Cleaver
(10) Crossbow Guild: key feature of this deck

Let's try to use the checklist provided by Edelweiss to look at this deck:
  1. Average mana cost of around 3.5: 3.3
  2. 8 minions + 2 spells: No
  3. Counter to (a) Flying, (b) Swarm, (c) Big units:
    • (a) Plasma Marines, Xiao Long, Crossbow Dudes (from the guild)
    • (b) Illusory Cleaver, Daggerfall, Wirly Scrat, Screaming Scrat/Wall + minions
    • (c) Cleaver, Screaming Scrat/Wall + minions
  4. Specialised cards: Wheel of Doom
  5. Win condition: constant stream of Crossbow Dudes supported by other minions to hit face. Perk 3 helps a lot.
Here are some gameplays:

Is she really useless considering her cost went down?

MrBunnyBan,
Useless to me lor because the 5s immunity duration is not enough for me to come up with sufficient follow-up, despite the 1-mana cost reduction.

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 1)

-
Here are the character builds for my current run (with the help of Ban): Kyrie Fellblade/Marked Counter: Slow Secondary passives: Execute, Life Font Fellblade itself is a good class because of the various conditions it can inflict and most importantly they can inflict Sleep. Iirc, the only other human class that can do this is Gadgeteer. Their passive Malice increases the chance of landing it by 10%. Fellblade pairs well with Marked because both use ATK and MND in their offensive abilities. Also, Fellblade's abilities are mostly short range whereas Marked has some long range abilities. Execute for more damage. Life Font is for suvivability. Ban opined that with two healers, there's no need for Life Font but I discover that it enables Kyrie to survive just enough for a healer to heal her up, after having received massive damage. Ban advocated for Marked/Fellblade for superior Speed (1.00 vs 0.92) and defense (heavy armor). I resisted this for a long time because I

Fell Seal: Arbiter's Mark - character build (Part 2)

(continue from Part 1 ) Yates Anatomist/Wizard Counter: Cripple Secondary passives: Blessed One, Smart Casting Anatomist is the best healer in game due to the passive Legendary Healer, which also then boost the amount of self-healing by Blessed One. Although Ban thinks Anatomist's Dark spells are sufficient in dealing damage and so he suggests Alchemyst as Yate's secondary class, I choose Wizard for the following reasons: Quite often, demonic creatures have Dark immunity and other creatures have immunity to other elements. So having Dark, Water, Fire, Earth and Thunder spells enable Yates to cast the most suitable spell, especially when the enemies are vulnerable to certain elements. Flexible casting :) Smart Casting is useful so that I don't need to worry much about the positioning of the enemies relative to my other characters when using Mass Healing and the area effect damage spells. As stated in previous post , there "are so many devastating Skill ba

Strange expectorant

An expectorant cough syrup helps you to prevent phlegem from going to your lungs by expelling it via coughing or so I heard from doctors and pharmacists. That's why for cough that's caused by phlegm, it is not advisable to take suppressant cough syrup. Given that's the role, do you expect it to be drowsy? It should be non-drowsy so that you will be actively coughing out the phlegm, right? Not this Unizet expectorant. The doctor told me that it shouldn't be drowsy and yet some of his patients (including me) reported otherwise. I read the detailed information (on the piece of paper typically stuffed inside the box) and nowhere it indicated drowsiness as a side effect. Strange, huh?
