Re: Which is the worst card (excluding animals and S cards)?

The Siren ability is optional, you can just choose not to use it if you don't want to give the opponent extra bench space. Most of the time it's a vanilla 6, which isn't great but it's a lot easier to find matches of than 7s. A pair of Sirens is almost always going to be better than two mismatched 7s.

What to do if a game is broken?

I'm currently in a game (table #440986401) and every time I try to load it hangs at "Application loading..." I can't even report a bug from this screen as the BGA interface is nonfunctional.

Re: Which is the worst card (excluding animals and S cards)?

None of the starter cards are that good in the end, even champion... usually if you still have them around you either have a very strong deck with a lot of duplicates or a very weak deck. If you have 2+ hermits it doesn't hurt that much to toss them by round 4 or 5 at the latest, so you're trading a...

Re: Rank 1 Challengers! Tierlist

I think Sailor is a tough card to value correctly. I've been moving away from picking Sailor so much and I feel it's hurt my win rate pretty bad. But at the same time I've also lost big on Sailor before. I think it's a card that's a lot stronger in the midgame than the endgame, since it's easier to ...

Re: Too many good options to choose from ...

There are plenty of A pairs that would be better than champion but they might wind up on the chopping block for a C card anyhow. Having the chance is better than not, so I still think 2xUFO is the best call, but I'm not sure the difference over a 3rd mascot is huge.

Re: Too many good options to choose from ...

It's round 6 and the only As left in the deck are already paired and have limited synergy. The odds of UFO providing any permanent improvement are low and have to compete with the odds of mascot getting better next round from adding other colors. I still think it's a toss-up between 2xUFO and Mascot...

Redraw strategy - what cards are good enough to keep?

How good does your draw have to be for you to keep it without redrawing? Particularly for the round 1 draft, since later rounds have more variables. Pairs are obviously strong, but how weak does a pair have to be for you to be greedy enough to redraw and fish for something better? What singles are g...

Re: Challengers 2 - is it coming to BGA?

I think the only downside to this change is that some cards will defiantly become non-viable. One of the amazing things about the current game is that sometimes you are forced to make due with cards you don't really like. With more options, you can be more picky I think. I think it probably winds u...

Re: Which is the worst card (excluding animals and S cards)?

I guess HERMIT is the worse. No power on first rounds, can get to 4 in midgame but i wont quit my Champion If you remove all your city cards then Hermit is now always just as strong as Champion, but much easier to get doubles of. As a single card I do think it's pretty bad, but if you see doubles y...
