I’ve tried to enjoy this new season
Been playing now for a few seasons and have been having a lot of fun, because the game has a mix of skill and RNG where 1 player a match can get really lucky occasionally. Now it is every single match RNG takes over.
Skill has completely gone out the window it seems. I like the idea of the orbs, but this is getting ridiculous.
I’ve played around with all of the rulers this new season minus the Goblin Queen. Here are some of my thoughts for the ones I see the most as a Gold 3 player.
Loong has a clear advantage at the start to get orbs. That extra guy at the beginning easily gets them to 2-3 wins in a row to start or mid to late game. Unless you are unlucky and get elixir with those orbs and can’t level up anyone up.
DD is probably the most fun to play with if you can get GK in the first 2 rounds to get orbs. Loong has a clear advantage with the extra guy on the board to prevent DD from getting orbs. I would go 5+ games in a row easily losing, because I can’t get lucky.
Sage is almost a non factor now. I don’t think I’ve lost to one and I pretty much tried it for a few matches after getting bored.
Tomb Queen is fun to play with only if you get lucky with Witch and Shelly King. If you aren’t lucky enough to get those early you’re toast. No orbs for you and it’s a quick exit.
Empress requires nothing to happen on the board to get orbs just spam merging and if you survive a few rounds you’ll end up with a bunch of 3 stars. No skill required, but you need that RNG luck.
Battle Machine can get a guaranteed orb for letting others destroy their buildings. Not too hard to do. Nothing else to say about this ruler as he’s mostly been non existent along.
Goblin Queen just needs to sit back and collect orbs while her goblins multiply. No skill required and goblins are easy to acquire.
The others haven’t been too prevalent in matches, so I don’t have much experience with them.
End game is always 3 and 4 starts all over the board. Like it’s too common. I miss matches where a player maybe has 1 or 2 of them at the end.
Rant over. Thanks for coming.
