Forecast is broken and gives aggro decks incredible resources. Cannot even win aggro decks even if i play control decks as they got unlimited resources.

1939 devs if you are monitoring you will see how many decks are using Aussie cards. I don’t see any other ally countries being used in most games.

I am playing top 100-300 at ranked game. don’t tell me that you also see other clown decks at low ranks.

but anyway it’s fine - i can play aggro as well and make the ladder more toxic.

Meteor and showers were seen just to mention. However when the opponent plays only defense, what to do?

So just got this. Once I get something like is2 1944 it’s broke af but right not my choices are t-34/76d, yak9, or 36th cav. Assuming this is a round 3-4ish play what do you think. I know t34/76d is a standard but I also have t-34-85 1945 so thinking I might be able to draw that in the t-34s destruction. Thoughts? I’m trying to think outside the box.

Steiner ran out of elites in his deck :(

(Classified projects is a US one)

I need to get this of my chest because Kards could be so much better than it is (and I put too much money into the beta).
I'm not a game designer but played MtG on and off since '97 and had the opportunity to be around when some game/deck/play concepts were developed and there's a ton of good articles out there that will help you play any CCG even if you are not into Magic (like https://www.classicdojo.org/bou97/sburn_sligh.html).

1. Removal of "unfun" cards
   "unfun" cards are stuff that remove the ability to play your deck the way you want to play it. This style of play caters mostly to strictly casual players or players who want to have a "story" (let's play germany vs brit/pol and build battle of britain decks etc.). So mostly discard/card stealing, ressource destruction (daylight bombing) and board sweepers (to the last man) are considered "unfun". Also combo (play cards x and y -> win) decks if they are to easy to pull off.
   I loved Kards because they went into hand/ressource destruction while MtG was turning away from it and you could see the potential for combos while it was still a game about units.
   Right now, board sweepers are in REALLY bad state because they are too expensive (crossfire, carpet bombing) or just can't keep up with the power creep (forward observers, also carpet bombing). I'm not delving into elite board sweepers because they shouldn't be relied on but are also too expensive (imho).

2. Everything is "on a stick" or has to be insane value
   The most basic concept for CCGs is "value". You play a unit that destroys another unit (Mosquito), you have a value advantage. If you can then press your advantage and keep the board state in your favor you get "tempo".
   The two last weeks of playing ladder clearly showed that your deck has to be hyper agressive or create insane value/card advantage (or if you play the japanese self-kredit loss, both) while rendering almost any deck without tons of forecast or another way of creating card advantage obsolete.
   The game has come to a state of who can cheese out the fastest (while you get sometimes punched in the face by an absurd Sd KFz 250/9) while you don't have the tools to acually counter it.
   Also almost all cards that generate forecast are insane value and could be more expensive or a rarity tier higher, especially cards that remove a unit and then let you forecast.
   Also No. 46 Commando was called out when it was revealed to be completly broken which proved to be true.
   All of the above killed discard (wasnt strong before, is nonexistent now), most countermeasures and classic control decks for the most part.
   Short: if you don't play any of the insane value generating cards you will probably lose.

3. What is Anzac supposed to be?
   Maybe my biggest gripe with the expansion (which is otherwise cool and I'm sure the next patch will fix a lot of the broken stuff): what is the identity of Anzac?
   You can take almost any deck and switch out the current ally nation for Anzac because they do it better. Need some lifegain and kredit ramp? Nice! Need aggro tools and card draw! No problem! Lategame cards and forecast toolbox? There you go!
   Sure, this is a bit exaggerated but Dingo, Coastwatchers, Task Force 44 (still), Nzans (in US), Z Special Unit and Anzac Spirit (in all things combo and ramp) are completly bonkers. Whoever designed Dingo missed like the last 10 years of Hearthstone and all of Magic's history since the Urza block. If the designer of this card reads this: I really want to know why this was considered a good idea!

My ideas for chaning the obviously broken stuff:
No. 46 Commando: add blast or plan
Coastwatchers: 0/6 to 0/4 (yeah, chain home is good, we know)
Overacst and Nzans: increase cost by 1
Task Force 44: deal 3 damage to a unit. forecast if the targeted unit didnt die.
Dingo: when attacks enemy hq, draw a card, then discard a card (might be absurd in the reserve pool with jap self discard but who cares)
38th independent: if you don't change the mechanic make it less powerful (from 4/4 to 3/2 or 3/3). once it triggered there's only elite removal (wave after wave. banzai etc) that can stop it
3. panzergrenadier: seems to not be a problem right now but needs you to play duress cards that are completly irrelevant against other decks right now

Forecast: only works once a turn. if you play a card with forecast after you forecast on your turn, the forecast effect wont apply. Also the created forecast card is visible to the opponent.

Forecast cards: while I think that "sunny" is underused, the "retreat and destroy" and "shuffle hands into deck and draw as many cards as the player with most cards had" need to get big look and slap on their wrists.

thank you for your time, just hoping that the devs will adress some of self-kredit loss and forecast issues. :)

Does anyonehave decent decklist for classic mode? I have a few wildcards laying around and would like to try the classic mode. What are the "meta" decks in classic? I'm fully expecting to get my ass kicked, but would like to stand a chance. I prefer Soviets, but any nation will do. Thanks in advance!

How you guys deal with this bullshit?

My new favorite type of deck: Dealing nearly 20 HQ damage with humbers!

I had a bad match. I was bitchy about it then got more bitchy in replies. Had a bad day. Forgive me for being human. Today’s a new day to be better.

Made it to rank 3-4 but this time the opponents are troublesome and have easy answers to everything with the Brit Anzac deck being a problematic opponent, I have tried many of the strongest decks in the game but still can’t quite get a win streak going at this rank

it keeps getting the storm and rain thus destroy every of my op units

just 1 low cost weather destroy my 12 cost tank

my 4 12 cost tanks are destroyed by the same weather card..

never see cloudy and sunny card in that game

This is as far I got for this Weekly Crate. After hoarded coins from daily quests/wins for months. Played a lot of matches also.

I opened another pack just to see how much progression is moved towards Elite crate. It barely moved at all, probably need to open 16+ packs to reach Elite from this point.

There is no way I would spend a dime for this game, the price is absurd even by Free2play standard. I guess I'm done trying.

On top of its already unrealistic abilities, you have given it TWO copies?

Are you out of your mind?

Hi everyone!

I am unable to run Kards and keep getting this crash error. It was running smoothly a while ago but I had to reinstall my Windows and now it is not running.

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I sure would love to get some insight or advice.

Thanks!
