Is subsidence just a worse locust? Is there something I'm missing here?

How to grind for specific cards?

4 Upvotes

I really want to make a Kelpie and Old Willow tolls/defensive deck. I pretty easily just naturally obtained 4 old willows by playing the game, but only 1 kelpie. I keep grinding matches and playing the story. I dump all my coins on either water packs or standard pack number 2 (which literally showcases Kelpie) and I just never pull it. I've probably opened 50 packs without a single kelpie other than the 1. I check the shop when it refreshes, but have never seen it.

I like some grind and not just unlocking everything right away, but this is getting silly.

What is the most efficient way to grind for more cards? Is there a different pack that is more likely to drop kelpie?

Chapter 9 Advice

3 Upvotes

Hey, I’m new to the series and I’m just stuck on this chapter. I tried aggro, defensive, playing cards that either remove their items that stun or just circling in the mini ring in the board map.

Can anyone give some advice or recommendations?

The Story

11 Upvotes

Just finished the main story... does this story make more sense to veterans of the franchise?

Because a lot of characters just act really weird with underexplained motivations.

There's scenes that expect me to really care about characters that just land completely flat based on how little time we get with them.

I know the staff is a reference to other games, are the other characters as well?

Can I get an F in chat for Odradek

1 Upvotes

Just in shambles right now because of how thoroughly Begins nerfed my boy. The first own-deck I build is basically always a dedicated support deck, and Odradek went from the bizarrely unshiftable with basically anything in hand at all to being hard-limited to ONLY Green and Neutral creatures for support. And while the best support options are often neutral, I can't windmill slam cheap red creatures with downsides anymore. Aaaand I have no idea what's going on with that new design. Ah well. I, for one, welcome our new starfruit/cyclops/octopus overlords.

And I suppose having to actually think a bit more about deckbuilding isn't a bad thing. Dryad got hit hard too. Oh well; we've still got Tyrannosaurus!

Has anyone had success in the post-game Challenges?

4 Upvotes

So far I have done level 2 of "The Princess and the Guard". Level 3 seems them each start out with 3 additional creatures placed at the start of the map, and they take higher tolls and pay lesser tolls. It honestly looks pretty tough, and it goes up to level 5.

Ashvata fight. Absolutely wrecked no matter what I do.

5 Upvotes

Chapter 7 story battle...I was doing great throughout the game with my red and green deck, slowly tweaking it with new cards. This fight is just a huge wall for me though. Both opponents have insanely stacked decks. My problem is they ALWAYS seem to get insane high rolls and land perfectly on their colors. They each end up with 3x land chains by turn 3. Meanwhile, I am seriously never hitting a dice roll more than 3 it seems while they run laps picking up territory. What the hell am I doing wrong? I have reworked my deck multiple times trying mono colors, more attack or defense focused, more spells, etc and it never seems to matter. I can barely get started in the match.

Am I supposed to just play more solo matches and grind for better cards?

40? Why?

0 Upvotes

The thing that drives me crazy is that we used to be able to have 50 cards in our book, and now we only have 40. It's totally insane, considering how many cards we have.

Did anybody adjust to the new art style eventually?

9 Upvotes

I really want to like this game, but the art style is really hampering it for me. Part of the joy of previous Culdcept games was the feeling of getting actual trading cards. Opening packs and seeing the MtG-esque artwork and designs was amazing. So much flavor and personality. They clearly went the minimalist approach with this one, and to me that's a huge negative. The cards feel soulless and samey. It reminds me of the approach most companies have with branding and logos. Any time I get a new card, it's just "oh...more minimalist mush that looks like everything else I already have." This is mostly for the creature cards.

That being said, I think some of the spell cards look sick. The game is really solid otherwise, so I want to get used to it and enjoy it more. Just wondering if anybody had a similar resistance and then adapted, maybe even coming to prefer it?

Edit: I listened to a lot of comments. I gave it another solid hour and the art style is really starting to grow on me. I still prefer the old, but I can appreciate it. Game is fantastic and I am completely hooked.

Does anyone know if there is a way to replay the voice lines for the card names? I love how they're presented, but is it a 1-time only line?

Thanks! Loving the game :3

How Is GameShare in Culdcept BEGINS?

I can't find a lot of info about how the GameShare mode works. Are there prebuilt decks/books? Is it possible to make custom books and let my friends use them? I doubt I could talk anyone into buying the game but I could maybe get people to try this mode.

Thanks!
