| An Eternal flame – a thousand-hour retrospective Posted: 04 Jun 2020 03:13 AM PDT As I'm posting this, I've nearly clocked in 1000 hours of Eternal. A good moment to reflect on my experience with the game and share some thoughts. Who am I? I used to play MTG and Heartstone. With family and work happily taking up most of time, gaming was relegated to playing videogames on my handheld. Still I was craving for some form of competitive gaming, that wouldn't take up an exorbitant amount of time. I came to know about Eternal through an article on CFB, which piqued my interest. When I had a seldom day off, I took upon my Eternal journey and started playing. For intents and purposes, I consider myself an 'intermediate' player. I'm not a pro that pursues ECQ, with the goal of claiming titles and money. I do hit masters in any format, I actively play in a particular month. I play for fun, but when I play, I want to win. First things first: I love Eternal "An affordable strategic card game, that takes an hour to understand, but many more to master." I tried a few alternatives. But they were obtuse in gameplay, not available for Mac (Yes, I'm that kind of a person), or weren't worth my money for the amount I wanted to spend. Shut up and maintain your wallet in your current position Torch the Initiate of Sands I don't care for lore and graphics **Aren't Russians playing this game?*\* They got it right Buffing cards; A good way to keep the game fresh! Merchants; Much maligned by some, but when used reactively I think it's a brilliant way to make match-ups way less lopsided. Mulligan to at least two power; Wish this could be a thing irl! Response to player feedback; Complaints about EHG aside, DWD does listen to feedback and even responds to Reddit threads. Great job being so responsive. They got it mostly right Archtypes; In most cardgames you have aggro, control and combo. With some flavors in between scaling from fast to slow gameplay and interactive and non-interactive gameplay. Eternal for the most part seem to center around combat based decks. Either aggro, tempo or midrange. While there are some exceptions the (hoo)rule, I'd like to see more combo or control decks being viable. I feel that relics, tribal synergies, non-removal/draw spells are underrepresented in competitive play. And from what I gander, there isn't much of a casual player base where these cards and strategies can come in to fruition. They got it wrong – We need to talk about relic weapons Criticism aside. I hope to be playing this game for at least another 1000 hours. Thanks DWD, thanks players and gyoza. I love gyoza. mickysukiyaki [link] [comments] | ||
| The Misplay - #43 - Sunyside Up ft. Sunyveil Posted: 04 Jun 2020 12:04 PM PDT Suny's a card player, a streamer, a podcaster, a community organizer, a musician.... a true Renaissance man. https://themisplay.com/episode/sunyside-up-ft-sunyveil/ We talk about the most recent ECQ and Spring Championship. We play a special version of Name That Card with Suny. Mark pretty strongly believes I shouldn't receive a Wild Card to Worlds. "I don't believe that's true." We discuss the caliber of misplays Suny makes versus the caliber of our misplays. We look at the potential of Eternal as an eSport. We consider things we could be doing to help Dire Wolf promote the game and its players. Be sure to check out Friends of Eternal's Fantasy League. Mark and I are still free agents. Oh, and Mark's Tik Tok video...any minute now on our Twitter. For more information: [link] [comments] | ||

| Turn to Seed - A sincere request to DWD Posted: 04 Jun 2020 12:47 PM PDT Sorry for another rant guys but I'm getting to a point where I'm so frustrated about this card that I need to express my deepest feelings..... It is beyond my understanding how one-super-easy-to-cast card can just break your whole combo deck or your only tech card unit against certain strategies which you painstakingly included as a counter-measure for your deck's weaknesses. Similar cards such as Avigraft, In Cold Blood, Rain of Frogs, Citywide Ban all cost 4 or more and come with downsides, being a relic or with restrictions, but TTS practically does not. 0/2 Seeds that take FIVE turns to grow IS NOT A DOWNSIDE. For the love of the game and the limited mental tolerance of the community, please nerf it quickly before the next set or it might risk more players distancing from the game. Yes, not just socially. I'm sure you have countless ideas on how to fix it as there has been numerous posts and feedback from the community for over a month. An early 3 power card that punishes smart deck building and synergies is never healthy for a card game. In conclusion, I propose the following ideas from my own perspective, but I hope the community can also post their own ideas on how to balance this plague of a card: Either:
I look forward to your response DWD, thank you. (Jekk & Menace too please while you're at it) [link] [comments] | ||

| Streamers or youtubers to watch? Posted: 03 Jun 2020 06:47 PM PDT I just came back I a lot of the youtubers I used to follow are no longer active (like manus or thatresolves) any you recomend? [link] [comments] | ||
| "Chronicles of the Throne" physical cards Posted: 03 Jun 2020 09:51 PM PDT I wasn't sure where else to ask something like this, and I'm not coming across a lot of info so far in my search. I can see that there are 2 decks currently available for the physical game, sold on the main website and even Amazon. What I'm wondering is if those 2 main deck boxes are all there is right now? Or am i missing like "booster packs" and/or faction decks somewhere? If i'm not mistaken it just looks like the physical version is still pretty young, so maybe I joined the ship at a great time to start collecting. >:3 New player to Eternal, and basically to CCG's in general. Grew up with yugioh and pokemon on Toonami, but never really got into card games through the years... Maybe i was just too busy with Minecraft, LoL etc. LMAO. Great game so far! I looked into quite a few different ones out there, and have tried collecting a bit of MTG here and there over the years but it never really stuck. So far I'm falling in love with this game on Switch. <3 Thanks for any info you can provide! Also, for those of you that have gotten some, how is the quality? Early yugioh & pokemon stuff was pretty flimsy cardboard. I'm curious how they feel. :) [link] [comments] | ||
| Echoes of Eternity Draft + Matches 4 Posted: 03 Jun 2020 09:02 PM PDT To see if the least popular draft combination can make it in today's draft environment, go here: Time to see what strange builds we can make in this new format! Can an odd color combination make its way to victory? Find out in today's Matches! For the full decklist I used in this draft, please visit Eternal Warcry: https://eternalwarcry.com/decks/d/_nEJ8HN61Oo/echoes-of-eternity-draft-matches-4 [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 03 Jun 2020 02:48 PM PDT What cards would you choose to see in the next draft packs, without knowing what the upcoming set will be like? Is there a specific card you'd want to see make a comeback or a whole archtype become more prevailant? I would like to see Tandem Watchwing and Ground Crew make it back into the draft packs. Valkyrie synergy is fun and thematic, and I have always been fond of drafting Justice. [link] [comments] | ||

| Help me understand current monetization strategy, please? Posted: 03 Jun 2020 06:40 PM PDT Hello, I'm a casual Eternal player, and I love to play the game. It's looking to me like hyperinlflation has happened so badly in the game since last I played regularly (a year or so ago), than in game currency and even gems are now worthless to me. I'm casual, and I can still win lots of matches at bronze level ranked, plus do all my daily quests, with decks I built years ago when the game first came out. So, I guess kudos to the devs for avoiding power creep, at least on the lower ranks. So, new cards and decks don't hold much value to me. What I'm noticing is that things I would actually spend real money on, mostly cosmetics, such as card backs, are now locked behind either league/tournament participation, or watching streamers on Twitch to earn "influence" currency to spend at the "community store". I don't understand what the devs are thinking , here. They've effectively removed every last thing I would spend real money on (cosmetics) from playing the casual game, and locked it behind streamer support and league/tournament participation. The only incentive I have as a casual player to keep playing is just a few matches from time to time for pure enjoyment of the game. None of the currency means anything - it's so hyperinflated, it's worthless to me. I have no interest in ranking, watching or paying streamers, or participating in leagues/tournaments. So, my question to the community, is what are the devs trying to do here with their monetization strategy? I'd drop real money on card backs, totems, and other cosmetics, but all that's been locked behind stuff I have no interest in. Have the devs lost all interest in getting money from casual players like me? [link] [comments] |
