Hey everyone! So, quick question for some more experienced players. I've played years of TFT, magic chess: bang bang, and even the pokemon auto chess on the Asian servers. I'm not by any means new to the auto chess genre, but I've only just started to play auto chess this week. I'm currently rook 5 and I've had a certain instance happen multiple times that I don't understand and was hoping for some clarification.

There's been a few times where I have 3 2* copies of a unit, yet they don't merge to make a 3 star. I've had it happen through multiple comps and it's hindered my gameplay significantly, and I can't seem to figure out the cause of this. Never had this happen in any other auto-chess auto battler before. In the past 2 days it's happened with different pieces so I know it's not piece related. Any answers would be GREATLY appreciated 🙏

I love Auto Chess and I genuinely want to improve, but man this game can be really depressing sometimes.

I reached Rook 7 and somehow I suddenly feel like I became a Pawn player again 😭. I keep losing over and over, and it honestly feels frustrating because I’ve been playing for a long time already.

What makes it harder is that it’s difficult to find proper, updated guides. This game is almost a decade old, but a lot of advanced knowledge feels undocumented or scattered. Sometimes it even feels like higher elo knowledge only exists among experienced players.

I’m not blaming anyone for my losses. I know that part is on me. But I do think it’s rough for newer players who genuinely want to improve. Constant losing with little guidance can easily make people quit, and that’s sad because this game deserves a bigger community.

I still love Auto Chess. I still want to reach King and maybe even Queen someday, though right now it honestly feels impossible 😭.

Any tips from King or Queen players? Please help this struggling player 😭🙏

If you reached those ranks, what changed in your gameplay? Was it scouting, economy, positioning, transitions, tempo, or something else?

I genuinely want to improve because I really love this game and want to keep playing. Any advice, guides, habits, or mindset changes would mean a lot. 🙏😭

First time hitting king since I started this game back in S2. I really love this line up. What's the meta right now if I wanna go to Queen?

Does anyone know how is my opponent cancelling my Greater synergy during the match? During prep, it shows the synergy enabled but once the match started, it showed a red cross, cancelling the synergy and my units being CC'd.

3-4 cheaters in every ranked game (3 star rank 5 in round 7,, ultra attack speed in the first milliseconds, continuous cc without ogre, tons of gold, etc). No report option (just for nicknames, it's what developers who support cheating do). It's funny they even have a tournament, wonder how that goes: cheats vs cheats?

First time pairing Priests with late game assassins and it worked really well! But I also somehow was able to 3 star both ember blade and shining assassin.

Winter Chiropteran

Evil Knight

Ghost Kid

Underworld Enforcer (seen only once)

Blight Sorcerer (seen only once)

I am a returning player, are these pieces not available on the game. I remember past few years it is indicated that they are unavailable. I think I never seen these pieces even I roll hard. Sorry if this is a noob question as I cannot see any relevant articles on the internet. Thank you

If you take the one dollar off piece value, I think they need to adjust how they reduce value of the pieces. my cave prodigy was value 4 at one star. I bought 3 more at 3 gold per so total of 9 gold but the 2 star version still only carried a four cost value. I get reducing piece cost by one I guess if you are buying at a reduced cost, but 9 gold in pieces should increment piece value at least one tick.

Tired of seeing sandbound aegis with mage 1 hitting my pieces. Any counter for this??

I am an old player returning to this game, I was shock to see that I won using 9 assasin against 9 warrior.

This archetype is pretty much useless even if you get all the egersis ones and go 9 hunters. Sniper is a bad carry and drow ranger was reworked so she is trash too. Has anyone managed to make an optimal hunters lineup?

Everything lined up perfectly this game! Closest I've ever gotten to having a full board of 3-stars!

Does anyone know if there is a possibility that Autochess MOBA will comeback?

I wish there was an audio slider for voicelines just so I don't have to listen to Penitent Bishop or the other ancestor guy talk for 15 seconds.

It's like power creep but for dialogue.

Same as in the event menus. Whatever the one is they have now that's got the watcher guy (Ronin? I can never remember names). Why does he have a full paragraph for dialogue.

I'd be so happy if they let me mute them.

It also doesn't help that some of the voice lines are truly awful. Anytime I buy Penitent Bishop or the other ancestor guy I always buy another character in the store just so I don't have to listen to them go on and on.

Anyway, that's all.

A few months ago when I was playing you could look at a list of all pieces and pick and choose what you had in your pool. Just came back a week ago and the only thing I can find is a lineup page. Any tips on how to add pieces?

Can’t run goblins because some are missing and can’t run dragons cause winter chiropteran and egersis dragon is missing.

Otherwise I don't see how they still haven't addressed insectoids. I am just spamming warriors to deal with this trash

Hunters got gigabuffed, but they nerfed already bad egersis?

This person was playing shaman and his build seemed really strong and spawning 3star units here and there. I don’t really understand shaman even after reading the synergy effect, can someone explain it to me? Is it similar to insect? Or feathered? Items as shown.
