SW really needs the extra exposure as there is hardly any coverage of it on the iOS gaming scene (including TA) whereas Outwitters is plastered everywhere.

Go and add your vote now before the deadline tomorrow!

Sorry to bump this, but I don't think it was spotted...

Outwitters has caught up and is now within 3 votes of Summoner Wars, so if you want to support SW and Playdek, go vote now!

While I do agree that the game has received surprisingly little media attention (for all the shortcomings in the async implementation, and possible issues with UI and controls, it really is one of a kind and offers a rare and deeply tactical async experience for iOS, and brings the mechanics and strengths of the very, very well-made physical product to our mobile devices), my guess is that TA are preparing a thorough review. They have covered Ascension fairly well (though strangely not Nightfall), with both a review, and three smaller pieces, and hopefully this indicates that they keep a close watch on Playdek.

I did my part already...

let's gather around and casts our votes. This game needs all the exposures it can get.

It will be a major endorsement to Playdeck to bring new IPs into the iOS platform in the future as well.

On the other hand, I'm not sure if i'm really a bad player, ppl here are destroying me left and right. LOL.

Is there a way to tell how many cards you have left in your library? I see magic pile, discard pile, is it the center ones?

I might have to start customize those core decks. I see a lot of fancy cards from other players

Voted, and looking noobies to play with.

GC = Ashenor

[rekirtS]

Yes the green deck is the cards left in the deck.

If my opponent forfeits, do I not gain a win?

Should. just personal stats don't update immediately.

Interesting to note that while TO has the highest win percentage they actually have a losing record versus GD, while GD sports a winning percentage against every faction.

I mean je are so good, but vg is so boring and just easily destroyed.

VG requires a little learning. Firstly you need to maintain low board presence, which can be hard since you start with commons that are not easy to self kill. Then, that low board presence also requires your discard pile to have at least 2 cards for Summoning Surge to be fully useful. After that just wait for your champs to hit the board and support them by staying close to them with Sera. Sera can heal 2 wounds on a champ for 1 Magic, which is a great ability. Swap out the stock champs for big hitting champs, few of which are Mercs like Grubs and Mal. You also need to keep Jacob in there, his Heaven's Rain is great. Finally, you can sometimes use your priests to ambush the enemy with the Holy Judgment event.

Which is why GD is my go to confidence building faction, even if I get stomped every now and then because of their summoner's pathetic ability

In other news, a surprisingly fair review of Le Havre, but still no mention of one of the biggest games to come out last week.

[Exact-Psience]

Im trying to build a custom CL deck but i am unsure which approach to take.

Should I use more Thieves or do i take more snipers? I like scrappers so i think im not going to have less than 7 copies. Are Slashers worth it?

Which one's more consistent in terms of balance in offense and defense: Hawk or Violet?

Any tips on making the deck and using them?

I still cant figure this faction out.
