Im playing every day since the begining, 20 lvl here.
It seems i cant win ANY bar, any match AT ALL since like 2-3 weeks. I am unable to gain anything even with my get-a-bar strategy I use when I get matched with top 10, 100 etc.
I was at 1.5-3k rank since spring and it worked just fine until now. Im dropping terribly and cant get back.
Nowadays and at my current-lowest-to-be rank I usually iget matched with lowbies, lvl 13-16 max, with low lvl random cards and no strategy. There are no particular skill they are using - just spam army of meat which im not able to clear. Sometimes I get a 'decent' 2 mins of game, get a bar or two and then the enemy attacks with so many cards i loose terribly all 3 bars.
I try to report (usually same names!) but ofc there is a report's limit.
What the hell happened?!![]()
It sounds like you have been out of the loop regarding the huge balance update that happened near the end of last season. Any chance that is the case? It totally upended the meta and made decks based on lv6 commons total trash. The only common card in my old adv/fan deck that made the cut is stan the great (who will go out once I get another copy of SOMM). If you haven't adapted, it would certainly explain the tough time you're having now.
Thanks for the answer. I must admit I haven't followed the news since longer time now and last events were compatible with my current deck enough that I haven't switched it.
However - it happened for me at least twice that the opponent used unholy combust., pope timmy and an extra card at the same time, which never was the issue before. I've seen somewhere it may be caused by lag issues but why I have never experienced it before - nor or my side or on others... cheers
Well, good luck with the new meta! If you are looking for guidance on what works now I suggest poppnig over to the Reddit subforum or joining a good team. As for the energy cheating thing, I'm personally pretty adamant that it doesn't exist based on the thousands of games I've played in the months since the server side energy fix has taken place, but you're right that lag can make all kinds of weird things happen. I know I've been on the receiving side of lag before where I played a number of cards and nothing happened, only to have them all drop onto the board at the same time. Probably looked like a cheater myself...
Well, it has been a week and i dropped to the lowest-possible rank i've ever been (~1500 -> 8025)
I haven't won since yesterday any single BAR. (i won actually twice but dudes didn't connect)
I have tried any possible combos and decks, nothing. Besides - numerous of times i could count the enemy's energy spawned waaaay beyond 10.
What I have noticed - I loose only to ppl below lvl 16, I am fine (and matches seem fine) with ppl around my lvl - 18-21.
I am not even frustrated anymore - when I drop below 10k in rank, i quit. Im just going to hit lvl 21 and upgrade my first card to lvl 7 and that would be all.
