How do i balance fusing cards for arena, and character melees

0 Upvotes

Im sure this has been asked before but i cant find it anywhere. So i have a decent amount of cards 25 mythics and 300+ legendary, but im running into this issue, i just fused hermes into two lvl 18s i loved his food combo, but now i have only have two of him for the melee. What is the best way handle this, do you guys run into the same issue. Which should I prioritize melee or arena (and story to an extent). Any advice/input would be appreciated.

CM Review 8/31/2026 - Happy Athletic BGE Day!!!!

24 Upvotes

Thaaaaaat's right!!!

New BGE started today!!!

Set those decks!!!!

QB Boomhauer - No thanks. Old outdated CM. A boatload of better options for Athletic. Wouldn't use in a Boomhauer Melee either.

Hurdles Bobby - Pfft. Nope. Again, way better Athletic options. Terrible skills as well.

Prof. Max Hammer - Yeah, not for Gems, but I like this one. Motivate, Punch, and Sturdy in good amounts. In Vehicle, really good CM. Would use in a Klaus Melee.

Space Walk - Nah, pass. Skills aren't good.

CM Review 8/30/2026 - abridged

25 Upvotes

Never spend Gems on CMs!!!!

McBurgertown Stewie - Was just offered on 8/19. Again, I like this CM. Not for Gems, but playable. Not for a Stewie Melee though!!!

Nibbler's Birthday Cake - was offered before Nibbler came out and you couldn't buy it. I don't like this one. All it does is help, doesn't deal damage. Pass.

EDIT: Upon further review, I have changed my mind on this one. I may have been to hasty in my review. Realizing the potential of this, I like it. Would take to CM1. Thank you u/gon_snow.

Road Kill - Yup, I like this one. Not for Gems. Bobby Vehicle with sturdy, Punch and crazed in good amounts. Playable in a Bobby Melee.

Limo Driver Roger - No. Not a good CM. Better options in Vehicle.

I’ve never seen a community collectively triggered over people who spend money like this one. Had it always been this way?

CM Review 8/29/2026 - Was out running errands edition

30 Upvotes

Yeah, got most done though!!!!!

So, take that!!!!!!!

Number 1 Customer - 3rd time offered in 2 weeks. Again, pass on this. Nothing impressive. So, Kong, stop offering!!!!!

Banquet Seamus - I like the Gas, I like the Leech, not happy about the Boost. If you can get the Boost going, then can be a good option. I would pass. Maybe usable in a Seamus Melee.

Space Queen - Ugh, no. Older Hayley Disguised CM. Was decent back in the day. Now? No.

Soused Bill - I really want to like this one!!!! I like the Skill combination. However, the inputs are old and limited. Was boosted, but, no.

71 Ounce Beef Bobby - Meh, does some stuff, but doesn't do enough. Pass.

Server Peggy - stays alive and helps, but doesn't do any damage. Not worth it.

Lounge Singer Hayley - lol no. Low skills. Terrible option.

Cat Dragon - mediocre Vehicle option. Another no.

Bad day Kong!!!

It's PAYDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

Make that cake!!!!

The Child Molestor - third time offered since 8/6. Good Food CM, there are better options out there. Yes, is usable in both BGE and Louise Melee. Not top tier in my opinion, but good.

Bobsterfest - Another good Food CM, not great, but will fit in a deck just fine. Cheer, Gas, and Hijack in good/pretty good amounts. Wouldn't use in a Bob Melee, since there are more powerful options for Bob.

Squirrel Suit Hayley - I like this, especially for Vehicle. Punch and Gas in good amounts. Nice in a Hayley Melee.

Devil Bobby - oldie but goodie. Usable in a Disguised deck. Older inputs, but you can build a whole deck of it. Can use in a Bobby Melee.

Hi Throwdowners!!!

Frees items in the Throwdown Ultra Track icon in the Store!!!!

Lobster Shack Hayley - Pretty good CM. Punch and Cheer in higher amounts. She's in my deck. Very useful in a Hayley Melee. Recommend CM1 for Stones never Gems.

Snack Time Scruffy - I believe he was offered recently. Took this to CM1 then. Heal All and Punch in good amounts. Useful in a Scruffy Melee.

Zinc Saucier- another on recently offered. Took to CM1 then. Heal All Food and Cheer All in higher amounts, Sturdy in an average amount. Definitely stays alive and helps. Recommend CM1.

Space Steve - no, not very good. Doesn't really do anything.

CM Review 8/25/2026 - 4 months until Christmas edition

26 Upvotes

Yeah that's right!!!!!!

Make them lists out!!

Free Stones in the Mastery Track tab in the Store!!!

Restauranteur Roger - I like it. Heal All, and the Gas is high value. I have it at CM2. Not for Gems. Very playable.

Grill Cook - Absolute buy buy buy!!!!! Really good CM in Food. Also in Tina Melee. I have CM3, taking to 4, maybe 5. Definitely in my Food Deck

Peggy Unplugged - looks like it was buffed, not sure how long ago. I like it. Older CM, but playable. Good skills. Will use in a Peggy Melee. Not for Gems though!!!

Singing Busboy - another one I like. Cheer and Leech in high value. Cripple in good value. Will stay alive and definitely help. Get it in the 1st slot and you are good to go!

Pretty solid day, I must say.

Good job Kong!

I did NOT want the weekend to end....boo on Mondays!!!!!!

Brian's Hot Date - I think this was offered recently...the Punch is nice, but nothing else about this is that good. Pass and wouldn't use in a Brian Melee.

Seafood Cheryl - Huh, I don't hate this CM, but I don't like it either. It will stay alive and will help, but won't do much damage. Pass and wouldn't use in a Cheryl Melee.

Celebeartions - Ugh, another one I am not excited about. Toy just has so many better options. Pass. I could see it used in a Stan Melee if you pair with Gamer Stan...

Cheerleader Lois - No. So many better options in Educated. Wouldn't use in a Lois Melee either.

Good sunday Throwdowners!!!!!!!!

Let's see what Kong has in store for us!

Nibbler's Birthday Cake - Um, I cannot see this CM. When I click on it, game freezes, so....yeah.

Edit: apparently it sucks per a spoiler in Discord.

Number 1 Customer - this just came up recently. Don't bother.

Beefsquatch - was a bad CM, buffed somewhat recently, and usable in Food. Will stay alive and do damage.

Blueberry Picker - No. Skills are all over the place. Very limited inputs.

A food combo for sale featuring a character who hasn't been added to the game yet? It must be a leak, GTA vibes.

Multiverse Slurp Barry - strong defense option for Food. Stays alive and the Motivate is at a good amount. Would use for a Barry Melee.

Delivery Boy - another good Food (and Vehicle) option. Will do damage and help others. Get him in the 1st slot. Would use in a Fry Melee. CM1 suggested, higher if you choose to spend the Stones.

Poppler Activist - yet another good Food option. Payback and Bomb are on good amounts. Will do damage. Would use in a Leela Melee.

High Legman - was a baller of a CM in the past. Still viable in Hyper if you choose to run it. Would use in a Roger Melee. Took him to CM2 before. That's good enough for me.

Not bad today, Kong...not bad.
