    So tired of mystical decks...

    Anyone else sick and tired of playing against the same mystical deck characters again and again? Always with the zen cartman, regen, healing jimmy.. Mostly combined with mecha timmy, cyborg kenny, rats, and so on.

    Mystical seriously needs to be nerfed... I understand why people play with it, because its OP and tips the balance in many games, but if 90% of your players are using the exact same combination of cards at higher ranks then it ruins the game in the long run and and indicates something should be done.

    It becomes very, very repetitive to PvP. There are so many cards in this game, and so few ever being played...

    Also, when everyone is playing an OP deck, it makes more and more players to switch to the same combination unless they want to get defeated over and over. Using mystical puts you on an even playing field with people who are 1 or 2 ranks above you, mostly thanks to regen. If you also have master ninjew and use fantasy kyle to debuf, you can trample most of your opponents.

    Its not impossible to defeat people using mystical, but it locks down which cards and decks you can play if you want a fair chance, turning the game into "play cheap and use mystical like everyone else" or "build your deck to defend against mystical because that is all you will face". Either option is no fun in the long run.

    Yes the mystical **** is gay as f***. If someone has a level 5 regen, a level 5 Friar Jimmy, Angel Wendy, and a level 4-5 Zen Cartman, there is literally nothing you could do 2 attack them fast enough to take away enough energy for it kill them. Now if you don't have all your cards at level 5 or 6 yourself, there ain't s*** you can do to compete. Add the fact that for one Mana they can purify anything you lay down at 4 Mana, or freeze your charge ability for 40 seconds and you have all the most important reasons why the Mystic deck is completely b******* and ******ed. Unless they put a regenerating type card in every kind of deck and give every deck a one Mana purify counter then the current deck system is going to stay completely f***** forever. Whoever came up with the idea to stick all the cards that regenerate the same deck was a moron.

    Haha, you sure managed to capture the feeling one gets when playing against mystical decks...

    But yeah, feels a bit like they made the other 3 decks first, then decided to create a new deck that would totally screw up the balance. Not sure if the idea was that everyone should be running mystical + another deck, but bth I find mystical both boring and cheap so I never use it unless there is a mystical event (remember there was one quite some time ago) forcing you to use it.

    I just dont like the feeling of being caught between the situation you described, where there is just nothing you can do during many matches, or being forced into using a deck to survive.

    And the game creators seem unable to understand how come people dont want to hang out in legendary...

    My suggestion would be: nerf mystical and in general make all upgrades less effective. If the difference between card levels were not so big, people would be able to win games based on strategy and the difference between players of different levels would not be so painfully big, especially for players who have spent their resources into the wrong cards.

    Reading the forums make it painfully obvious that players are getting fed up with being matched against players who they cannot defeat no matter what they do, and trying to catch up is impossible given how much resources are needed to level up cards. Making the card upgrades less effective would counter that.

    Agreed. I think a lot of cards need to be retooled so that we can actually have some variety.

    I am fully against purify and agree on most points.
    My zen cartman is only leven 3 so not op.
    But poison needs to be nerfed aswell so the regen and the purify isnt needed anymore.
    You guys dont play multiple decks...
    Fantasy adventure is actually very damn good and fun.
    Cockmagick is the best spell in the game bro.

    To fix playing mystic the onlything you gotta fix is...

    Poison serious nerf so it doesnt force to play purify ...

    Serious nerf on mecha timmy statwise and skillwise *** shieldmaiden wendy is a fighter and hass less damage and hp..

    Zen cartman is fine if you use the right strategy... did you know that sherif cartman and awesomo get really good??

    Regen is fine... i have it on level 3.
    Nerf the poison and the regen for like 6-7 damage.
    Make poison 4 energy e voila fixed.

    In order to fix people playing mystic you first got to fix why they play it..

    Try fighting overpowered mecha timmy without mystic...

    Try fighting a poison deck without purify or regen i dare you.

    That thing is like fireball but better.
    The range is as ridiculous as mecha timmys range and stats.

    Also what you are describing is not so true... the decks are fairly balanced.

    I play all of them.

    All is balanced except;
    Mecha timmy
    Poison
    Medusa bebe
    Hookhand is a lil bit strong on lower level but dwarf king and alian are better on high level.

    You guys need to play more combos and more different decks to.

    You cant know if you dont try.
    And i did try it.

    I like fantasy the most and find it the best.
    Also the top players use fantasy a LOT especially ribintweek canadian knight.

    I think purify should have kept its giant radius but they should have changed the cost to 3. That might have made it better.

    Yep, I totally agree with Geerti on this one. Mystical is beatable but it takes a certain plan to punch through. Adv/fan is also my deck of choice and it can do fairly well if you time your push correctly. It's all about blitzing so enough force hits just as you drop a fireball on their support, and if you can make it so you have either a charged stan or gs kyle at that point, you have a really good chance of overcoming their wall even with regen running.

    I never said its not beatable or that there are no ways to counter it.

    I just said its a cheap crutch for many players, to get above their level, probably not in legendary but below that. And that I am tired of playing against the exact same decks again and again.

    I have played all the decks before, now I mostly play adventure/fantasy and I have no issues with poison whatsoever. If you want to kill my cards with poison that is fine, I will find some way to counter it or just accept the loss. I dont care about mecha timmy either, his mind control has too short duration to bother me as long as I take care which cards I play when he is charged.

    What bugs the crap out of me though is when you meet someone with **** cards who rush you and use regen, while the game is lagging, bugging, characters walking around instead of attacking, characters killing the opponents only to have them come back again and again, bastards refusing to die... In the current shape of the game, playing against regen/mystical is just annoying.

    As I said: I have tried it out myself and its very effective to use. But also feels cheap and boring, like a built in cheat. Just wish they would nerf already it so you didnt have to meet it 90% of the time, tired of playing against the same cards over and over again. And trust me, if it wasnt OP (once again, perhaps not in legendary) then it would never be so popular.

    Mystic is a cheap crutch .lmfao. so they nerfed the game and ruined many people's decks because of these 3-4 whiners that can't play the game
    Have u ever played against a *** spamming poison? It literally kills Ur whole team and u think the solution is increase the cost of a card that effect the enemy in no way, just removes a DoT or buff that will kill the enemies full team. These people are crazy and should go play idk , LoL? Or something idk those ****ing cards take time and resources to upgrade. It's not our fault POISON IS TOO OP! Purify is not a "free " card. It's not some ability u just have BC u play mystic. It's a card that can help u survive. Like the dude said nerf all the poison and mindcontrol and not as many people would use it. But no . U guys complain BC u can't or won't counter it. And I've played against plenty of players that have N O problem countering it. Now BC u whine the card is worthless. There's no way to counter poison, and I see poison becoming Ur big gripe next BC u won't be able to stop it. ****ing scrubs.
