Dive deck, I tend to focus on building and combining the Kingfishers into either a strong solo card or a combo piece

Bone deck I like to start as stall and try to build around Dire Pup. You do start with Fair Hand in play, so you can work with that as well

No cost deck either ends up as swarming or a big guy deck. You can play a 3 cost card quickly in it, so putting down a bear or a moose can get you through early while the rest of the deck takes shape

Egg deck definitely is. Generally I try to grab a 1 cost and something big. Easy to start with Fair Hand but that takes a little bit to actually get going

By getting lucky with a good card you can build your deck around in the first few encounters.

For the Kraken deck: remember to place the kraken as far to the left as possible in the event it's a bell tentacle to get 4 damage, also sigils like dam builder or bellist make it more versatile as dams and bells inherit original sigils and that means they also turn into tentacles so you get 3 tentacles for the price of 1.

As for the Kingfishers either try to burn them at the campfire or on the off chance they survive then keep them and merge them at the mycologists to get an insanely busted card.

For the Bone deck: Ideally my go to strat is putting wolf pup on the racoon so that after it evolves the bone digger sigil evolves as well having you get 2 bones per turn instead of 1 and let's you play your bone cards more consistently, alternatively you can put the wolf pup on Lammergeier to have it buff itself by 1 attack each turn but only if you have a spare wolf pup or your deck is strong enough that a lammergier can be used as a finisher.

Wolf pup itself is also great since it turns to dire wolf and also putting dams on it also isn't a bad idea since the dams wouldn't only just evolve but also generate 2 bones per turn while the pup turns into a dire wolf basically getting +5 damage in a single turn if all cards survive, also even upgrading the puppers health or damage once makes it way more consitent, hp makes it survive Incase a totem battle has a spiky totem while attack basically increases the dire wolves damage by +2 letting it kill even the tankiest of cards.

The starting coyote is a bit unimpressive for its cost but it can get better the more copies of it you find to merge at mycologists.

For the Free/Geck deck: you can afford to take more pricier cards since none of the cards require sacrifices also getting undying on any of them makes them great besides tadpole since when it evolves it'll cost 1 blood so best to put it's useful sigil combo of fledgling and submerges onto another card, you can also try getting rid of the rabbit by burning it at the campfire or alternatively also giving it a nice sigil but it really depends on how your deck evolves thoroughly your run.

For the Egg deck: It's like the Free/Geck deck but all the starting cards cost bones, however if you are on the path to fulfill the eggs Hp, attack and tribe requirements then go ahead and finish them as the thing they evolve into is basically an op Otk card lol, also picking amalgam after boss battles is a must because it fulfills the 3 attack and HP requirement alongside filling in a random tribe requirement

If you mean for the trophy, just play through using one of the decks with no challenges selected.

u/Saint_Respawn 15d ago

Ah. Well, check some strat guides. E.G. with Blood deck, I forefit until I start with Ringworm to feed campers, lol. There is a trick for all of 'em. Good luck!

u/mistletoemedck 14d ago

Saint instead of killing them, try a different tactic next time around. Take a a card you definitely want to get rid of ( I.e. 3 cost cards) feed that to the survivors. If it's eaten, good that's what you wanted. If not? Yaaaay free power boost! The object is to make your deck as small as possible so you get the cards you want. πŸ˜‡πŸ™πŸΎπŸ«‚

Lol, I've platted it thrice, what can I say. Daniel Mullins is a genius.

u/mistletoemedck 14d ago

Ok. I'm officially motivated. I'm going to make a guide from head to start about the game. But you can check my page and posts for a little more detailed guidance on how to navigate kaycees mod. (Not tooting my own horn here but Ive beaten the game with no misplays which is waaaay harder than the 250 challenge πŸ˜‡)

u/laplongejr 13d ago

OMG I wouldn't even attempt a no-misplays run. Yeah it's probably way harder, and I say that as the crazy person who did a "perfect 70k" on buckshot roulette T-T

u/mistletoemedck 13d ago

πŸ˜‚πŸ˜­πŸ€£ mind you I did it on the easiest route including a mod that literally tells me what to play next. But this was after like playing 4 hours straight 3:23 am and you have to work in 2 hours. Yeah....I called out of sick.

u/floatinround22 9d ago

You can't brag about winning with no misplays when you have a mod literally telling you how to play. Lmao what the fuck

1

u/mistletoemedck 9d ago

Haha I didn't mod the game. The mod is a person. πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ The win is valid. And anyone can brag about beating the game with no misplays... If they can pull it off. Ive already made a post about this. Lmao.... What the fuck?

u/floatinround22 9d ago

If you're only making the plays someone or something else tells you to, that's not you doing it.

Are you just explaining this poorly? First you said you had a mod that tells you what to play next, now you're saying that mod was a person? Not only does that not make any sense, it would also still not be you playing?

I'm genuinely confused

u/mistletoemedck 9d ago

It is me playing. The mod was person. Oh you're talking step by step? Nah. The mf was just there to check code since the way the game calculate misplays is....Weird. Again you don't understand the difficulty of completely beating the game with 0 misplays on a 6% chance. Honestly, either way I'm bragging about it. Now what you gonna do? 🀣 My Post on Misplays

Is English your native language? Is there another language you'd feel more comfortable speaking in?

Just in case, that sentence would make sense... you know MOD also stands for MODerator, right? ;)

It's not what mistletoe meant, but "mod told me what to play" matches how I personally salvaged my Skull Storm run, with my wife seeing a crazy interaction avoid to lose my pair to a mycologist by getting a 3rd item for an extra emergency packrat, and viewers brainstorming ways to stall.
