Team's Favourite Cards: VIII

Dear Denizens of Issilith!

While low-cost units are a staple of any well-balanced deck, especially if they have some cool effect, it’s quite hard to beat the impression a beefy unit can leave on a player (or their opponent for that matter).

TEAM MEMBER: Matea Vujasinović (Business Administrator)
FAVOURITE CARD: Teradon Destroyer

“Issilith is home to many creatures that almost defy reason. The mere sight of Titans such as this one almost unravels it.”

The largest of the bred beasts and closest greatest minds of the Drakkorith Empire came to the reviving of the long gone dragons, teradons quickly found their place in the Drakkorith way of life. While teradons come in many shapes and have certain variations in their size, they are often used as machines of war, wreaking havoc on the front lines of the battleground. But not all fulfil this purpose. The ones really awe-inspiring are those that carry entire structures mounted on their backs, such as those the Harkon Academy proudly calls their home.

Teradon Destroyer is a late-game Drakkorith unit that costs 9 essence. Its power is set at 10 and health at 8, making it a real behemoth on the battleground as well. But what makes its opponents really tremble is the demolish that this unit has. Since its power is set at 10, it means its attack on the Core will deal 20 damage! Take into consideration that the maximum health the Core can have is 30, and you’ll see why this unit deserves its name.

WHY: “When this unit comes on the board it usually means GG. Thanks to its raw power I can finish off my opponent in just two hits to the Core max, which is quite impressive.”

Competition Statistics!

Dear Denizens of Issilith,

The competition is officially coming to a close, with the last call to submit your winning screenshots by 23:00 GMT tonight!

We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who participated. It has been a truly exhilarating experience to witness the dedication, skill, and passion displayed by our players throughout the tournament.

We are excited to share some of the amazing statistics we have gathered over the course of the competition so far. Our data shows that Marien was the most used Avatar, accounting for 35.71% of all matches played, followed closely by Zhutgg at 20.24%. The Derelict Cave was the most popular battleground, and on average, matches lasted around 14 turns, with the longest match clocking in at an impressive 43 turns.

We also noticed that many players were boosting their energy, making it the most chosen attribute.

One of the most interesting trends we observed was the popularity of players picking energy when leveling attributes at the start of their turn.

As the competition draws to a close, we are excited to announce that we will be revealing the winners shortly. We have been blown away by the level of skill and dedication on display from all of our players and cannot wait to announce the final results.

Once again, we would like to express our heartfelt appreciation to all of our players. We could not have done this without you, and we look forward to continuing to bring you even more exciting and engaging events in the future.

Yours truly,

PHAGEBORN Team

Team's Favourite Cards: VII

Dear Denizens of Issilith!

Low-cost units that can be impactful in the mid to late game are always a great addition to any deck. That is the opinion our dear Glyn shares with many card game players.

TEAM MEMBER: Glyn Fairweather (Design Director)
FAVOURITE CARD: Krorn Catapult

“Much like the Drakkoriths, the Krorns take great pride in their machines of war.”

Krorns are in many ways similar to Drakkoriths with a few small exceptions, such as their smaller stature and average engineering skills. So they will mostly get their siege weapons from the Drakkoriths or commission them from the Klexrav. They can make their own if needed, though those are quite simple. But since Krorns use siege engines in their training and try to develop new tactics, they will make sure that this crude little catapult will get the job done.

Krorn Catapult is a neutral unit that costs 3 essence. With its power and health set at 3, you would think you get exactly how much you pay for with this card. However, Krorn Catapult also has a demolish, meaning it will deal double damage every time this unit attacks the Core. Don't forget to utilize this if you can, as it can easily turn the 3 damage this sturdy catapult has to 6, with just a little bit of planning and a pinch of good luck.

WHY: “It's a sturdy, and cheap card with great art. It doesn't draw attention to itself, or set off alarm bells. You can just get it on the table, and sling damage around. It's a great workhorse in any deck.”
