Faction Spotlight: The Ironhearts

10月10日

Overview

No matter how strong the enemy is, the Ironhearts always persist and comeback stronger than before. This faction specializes in reacting to the enemy, offensively and defensively. They can bring the strongest enemy to their knees with their Stun. Or if things get dire, they can buff the cards on hand to make the next round easier for you. Flexibility is their strength, but their plan takes time to prepare. To make the most out of this faction, you have to think far ahead and know when to give up on a round.

Notable Action: Stun

This is the bread and butter of this Faction. Stun reduces target enemy's Power to 1, crippled them for good. No matter how strong the enemy unit is, a well-timed Stun can bring them down, and ensure your victory. However, you can only stun the enemy unit, so the enemy still can Boost to increase their Power. Use your Stun wisely.

Notable Keyword: Focus

To trigger the effect of cards with Focus keyword, you have to wait for at least one round before playing this. If you think you cannot win this round, stack cards with Focus keyword on your hand for a spectacular comeback on the next round.

Let's see them in action

Despite the enemy has put down very powerful units on the board, the Ironhearts make quick work of them. With 2 stuns, they managed to win a decisive victory. But to do all of this require a bit of planning.

The first card has "Exile: Stun the strongest enemy on the board", so it is rather easy to use. But the second one is trickier. It has "Rush: Stun the last enemy",

In the clip, the opponent misplayed by playing a high power unit on their attacking turn. In Relics, players get their attacking turn back and forth. This is indicated by the sword and shield token at the edge of their respective boards. And whoever has the attacking token will reveal their unit first.

The opponent played their strong card on their attacking turn. So on the player's next turn, which they have the attacking token, their "Rush: Stun the last enemy" is revealed first, stunning the strong enemy that was played earlier. If the attacking turn order was the opposite, things would have gone very differently.

That's it for today, folks. Tomorrow, I will talk about the last Faction: The Seers. See you again.

Faction Spotlight: The Berserkers

10月10日

Overview

No faction can come close to the Berserkers when it comes to dominate the early game. This faction specializes in bringing raw power to the table. But this great power comes at a cost. The Berserkers tend to harm themselves during their frenzy. Their power wanes overtime, so they have to end the game as soon as possible.

Notable Keyword: Exile

Exile is really simple. You trigger its effect the first time you play it. That's it. But that is also its biggest draw back. Once they are played, they become significantly weaker. The longer the game drags on, the more you feel their weight. But on the bright side, their ability are extremely powerful, and they can win a round for you on their own. So think carefully whenever you play them.

Notable Keyword: Rush

To trigger the effect of cards with Rush keyword, the card must be at either the right most position or the left most position of your hand when you play it. This means you can always trigger its effect by playing it on the turn you draw it. But most of the time, this wouldn't be optimal, as most cards with Rush requires some set up to get the most out of their value. If you wish so, then you have to play / discard every other card on your hand until it reaches the left most position of your hand. Use it immediately ? Or use it after you have set everything up ? The choice is yours.

Let's see a basic combo

In this video, with the combination of a small hand size, a simple spell and two Rush cards, the player managed to outwit the opponent.

By reducing their own hand size, the player makes sure that the first card and the spell would buff the second card. And on the next turn, that very card triggers its own effect "Rush: Double my Power", turning itself into a whopping 18 Power unit and win the round. The enemy stands no chance, despite having so many cards on their hand.

That's it for today, folk. There are plenty of other mechanics for this Faction, but I don't want to spoil them all yet. You can try it out once the Demo is up. So stay tune for more.

Gameplay Preview #1: How to play Relics

10月9日

How to play

The rule of the game is extremely simple:

At the beginning of the game, each player draws three cards.
At the beginning of every turn, each player draws draw one card.
To end their turn, players have to play one card from their hand. It will add its value to the Total Power of that player.
After both players end their turn, the played cards are revealed, and a new turn begins.
After 5 turns, the round ends. The player with the most Total Power wins the round and collects a Relic for themselves. The cards on the board are discarded, and a new round begins.
Whoever wins 3 rounds wins the game.

While the rule is simple at first glance, the game has a few neat mechanics to spice things up. Each player can perform two additional action before playing a card to end their turn: Boost and Cast Spell.

Boost

Players can discard any card on their hand to add 3 Power to their Total Power for this round. This action is called Boost. You must have at least 2 cards on hand to be able to boost one of them.

Boost is a powerful to gain extra Power to turn the table in clutch situation, but it is also a double-edge sword and must be used wisely.

Each player starts the game with 3 cards on their hand. Boosting reduces the number of cards on their hand. So normally, each player can only boost 3 times in one game.

Boost too much, and you will find yourself with only one card left on hand, and you have no choice but to play whatever card you draw. You will completely lose control of your strategy. So think before you boost.

Spell and Mana

Each player starts the game with 5 mana gem on their board. With these, players can cast powerful spells. But there is a twist to this to this mana system. Whenever a player plays a card, that card will cover a mana gem on the board, preventing them from using it for this round. So, on the first turn of the round, you can access to 5 mana. On the second turn of the round, you can access to 4 mana. Keep that going, and on the fifth turn of the round, you can only access to 1 mana. The mana that was covered is not usable until the new round starts.

The mana system gives many problems for the player to consider. Would you like to cast a weak spell that cost 1 mana at the 5th turn, giving the enemy no chance to react ? Or would you like to cast a stronger spell that cost 2 mana at the 4th turn, and give the enemy opportunity to react on the 5th turn ? Should you use all the mana for this round ? The choice is yours.

That's it ?

Of course not! There are plenty of things I want to talk about. But the focus of this post is the basic flow of the game. In the next few days, I will go in depth into the mechanics of the game, the Factions, the Relics, etc... So stay tune for more.
