Re: Rank to gain ELO 100, How?

hello, checking my stats i notice that: - solo games are considered "friendly mode" and won't attribute any points. - lost game give -1 points - won game in 2-player easy mode give 10 points - won game in 2-players roguelike mode give 40 points and i guess you need 100 points to go past ap...

Re: Drafting vs buying cards. Which do you prefer and why?

Since drafting is generally (but not unanimously, I should point out) considered to be more skillful and less luck-based, I believe we can draw conclusions from the given information without knowing the specific numbers. The mistake in the logic you presented is here. This is an assumption, based o...

Re: Drafting vs buying cards. Which do you prefer and why?

Interesting. I wonder what conclusion we can draw from that? :) you are being cheeky, but if you really want to draw a conclusion from that you need to take into account the % of games won in both situations. Again, it's just a different point of view. You said most of your wins occurred in non-dra...

Re: Drafting vs buying cards. Which do you prefer and why?

Most of my winning games were buy, and most of my losing ones were drafts. Just saying :D Interesting. I wonder what conclusion we can draw from that? :) you are being cheeky, but if you really want to draw a conclusion from that you need to take into account the % of games won in both situations. ...

Re: Drafting vs buying cards. Which do you prefer and why?

To give an opposite opinion, I personally prefer buying over drafting. Except for a very few games that can indeed be too unbalanced to win, buying card allows to define a strategy and think ahead, depending on what cards you have in hand. And the moment you buy, you know among those 4 which ones ca...

is this considered acceptable?

I was in a game earlier with two players, one who was barely playing all along, collecting resources (mainly plants) and doing nothing else until the last round, the second playing normally. They had very low ELO, but I try not to discriminate so i didn't make it an issue. The last round starts, and...

Re: Icons are so small and indistinguishable

I wanted to give a try to this game since it's featured in the monthly event, but I have to say that, compared to other games I play i find it really confusing graphics-wise, and reading anything hurt my eyes after a while. The right side board that is supposed to explain all icons looks out of focu...

kiked out from a game at the end!

Was playing terraforming mars, and the last round just started. I go for a move, and the server gets crazy with red messages all over the screen. BGA totally frozen, while everything else on internet works nicely. Took one minute to get back to the server, there I log in again and there is no game o...

how to play this?

There's usually a nice tutorial, sometimes a video explaining the how to, but this game seems to have neither. The video looks like a promo vid, and when clicking on "learn" it says "read the rules". But the rules are behind a subscription wall, and i don't want to again subscrib...
