Ban Marina unban Striker
Ban Jeena unban Lou
unban Wee Lee]]>Sat, 15 Sep 2012 16:51:23 GMTEmeth, Uranus I mean why wouldn't he be .
Kalindra with her bonus really beast , easy to activate with a simple DR or Tiwi Ld or just a loss .
Bogdan's great with his Freak Bonus , But you can still play against him .
Dorian's just super solid .]]>Sat, 15 Sep 2012 15:38:14 GMT
Troompah
Kalindra
Bogdan
Dorian
Uranus

Wouldn't be surprised if all of these get the ban Hammer next time round.]]>Thu, 13 Sep 2012 17:29:30 GMTRescue New Blood .]]>Wed, 12 Sep 2012 23:38:42 GMTUlrich, you shall never return to me
and for some reason Deebler is perfectly balanced, not very fair UR, no VERY FAIR!!!!!!!]]>Wed, 12 Sep 2012 17:21:27 GMTKerry + Sledg back Yaaay!! Ok Kerry's ban was totally unjustified cuz even Gertjan Taljion have similar abilities and there a star lower ...
Sledg is one of those nukes but you have to learn to deal with them .

Lea ? Ban Flanagan aswell ? Lea wasn't OP people just couldn't think that the max pillz your going to put on Lea is 3 ..

Elvira hmm AS any other attack manipulation clans basically thrash her. again 4 5 pillz is the max your ever going to want to play with her depending on the situation. Not very fair BUT if UR brings a new Soa / Sob 2 / 3* card it would be good.

5 5 3* Soa? Oh no wait that will somehow become Op Courage Soa ? It'll probably go to confidence.
Or
7 5 Courage Soa but then that'd probably be a bit much so then Revenge / Confidence Soa

Even a card with Copy Opp Bonus would be great!
6 2 2* Copy Opp Bonus.]]>Tue, 11 Sep 2012 19:25:35 GMTSpyke
]]>Sun, 09 Sep 2012 01:35:35 GMTGertjan since mono Roots is already strong enough now and it has an OP ability that only 5 clans have cards that are able to stop that.

a splashed Lola can do the same thing as Bridget for helping 1 hit instant-win except facing SOA but you get 2 more star to spend on other cards.]]>Fri, 31 Aug 2012 13:33:10 GMTHilly Billy...]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 11:25:03 GMT Spyke-Excellent, Fair
Lehane-Ashame, but Fair.
Draheera-Good, but Not Fair.
Lea-Good, and borderline Fair/Not Fair.
Elvira-Good, bur Not Fair. (Look at Gertjan)

Unbans
Kerry-Bad, but Fair, (and I admit Kerry is pretty cool to face.)
Sledg-Not Fair at all , but along with Kerry should compensate Rescue users for losing Lea and Elvira. I might try playing Rescue myself now that Sledg is back (I do HATE SOB in the hands of and opponent).]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 04:58:35 GMTArno but bringing back a 8 powers SoA powerhouse Ratanah is not a really nice change , Roots only needs a good 2* like Arno and that's enough . They have had nice 4* with good life control and all-stop . Banning Jeena is a good trade but i really don't see her more Rico/Yookie

unban Bridget is quite risky because of Survivor ELO , 1 hit of Kenny/Jautya plus Bridget's life gain can be an instant-win against some decks]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 03:24:17 GMTMarina no need to be so brash about things but i do agree unban Striker ]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:54:26 GMT
what i think of the new elo changes so far is that aside from Kerry,thte Sledg unban should serve it's purpose quite nicely.the GHEIST will still be fine with their lower star counts and their chiara/Spiaghi splashes.the sentinels are still going to be annoying,people will still hate the Rescue and the Berzerk will fade out for a bit.
but since,the old unbanning debate has reared it's head again,i think i'd throw in some changes;

unban Yayoi-ban Charlie
unban Striker-ban Marina
unban Arkn-
unban Bridget
unban Bonnie Ld/Ulrich-ban ..well,let's say Raeth,but anybody here will do fine.
unban Arno + Ratanah-ban Jeena + Rico/Yookie
unban Wee Lee

but since we're all talking about unbanning guys like Emeth and Zatman blindly without recognizing that Troompah is going to be banned sooner rather than later,and even still,that's no excuse to unban Emeth,and that despite Dorian gets banned often,let's just pretend the Uppers 3 ,4 and 2 stars like Jose Star and Samantha are in no way,shape or form part of the Uppers.lets just have him hang out with a card like Oxen or Herman .NO THANK YOU...he's been unbanned twice,i dont think giving him another 50 chances to be let out only to be thrown back in only for people to beg to let him go is what's going to make the Uppers any better.

And for god's sakes guys,do something about Greem ]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:36:24 GMT
Sledg/Kerry unban-this one i think was a subtraction by addition,as in my opinion,i think Sledg was obviously brought back to be used as a lightning rod for ban-votes,since Kalindra and Uranus aren't going to be enough to piss off players into upping voter patricipation by banning them,but that's how i interpret future monsters being unleashed back into elo for no reason.BUT,i do find that Kerry is indeed back where she belongs and will be left alone by voters for the most part.

Of course,im disappointed that a bothersome card like Mona wasn't banned..surprised that Troompah didn't join that list,considering Spyke and troomaph were around within a time reach..also,no Askai/Bogdan/Dorian/Havok too be perma-bannedwas baffling,as these were cards im sure were screwed,if any of them...i can understand Cliff and Leviatonn not being banned as the Rescue and GHEIST would surely be taxed with another loss so quickly...im sure the staff were taking a hard look at Olga too,before they decided whether she should be banned,and personally,im glad she isn't because she is the backbone of Freaks play and if you take her out...well,Freaks are done for...and i generally have no comment on Robb Cr/Uranus,as im not sure what we're looking at regarding their future.

to be continued...]]>Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:19:39 GMT
Spyke-i expected him to get permabanned but this was a bit soon,as most cards that usually get frequently get banned usually are on that list for 2+ elo seasons(i refer to every round of elo permabans and returns as seasons),but if he`s banned,he`s banned.
Lehane-will hurt sentinels two stars but sentinels will survive in elo with cards like Tobbie and Kyle...though i get the sinking feeling sentinels are going to be the scapegoat ofelo bans like the GHEIST/Roots once were.
Draheera-this card getting perma-banned will really stomp on mono-GHEIST play for a long time,but they are far from crippled in elo...as a matter of fact,my elo record came from mono-GHEIST(with Spiaghi) and i dont recall using Draheera once;but if you dont understand Draheera ban,let me refresh your memory of a mono card who was strikingly dominant in elo; Marco Cr...more stars,more damage,more attack and more trouble...Draheera is just Marco Cr lite with a built-in SOA to better stop abilities and be devestating.
Elvira ban isnt too difficult to fix;just put Buckler in and you're good to go...now the Lea ban...unless you like Steve or Krash,that slim pickins amigo.

to be continued...]]>Thu, 16 Aug 2012 19:19:57 GMTGHEIST Elo players in any of my Elo matches as well which kind of shocked me even before UR Staff said they will ban Draheera. Why ban this card when it is the only good 4 star card remaining in Elo at the time? Draheera gets the +4 power but it wasn't that much of a threat to players IN MY OPINION.

Why ban Lea? To me it was a real kick in the teeth for all Rescue players in my opinion and it just wrecked up Rescue and same goes for Elvira. Sledg and Kerry will most likely be used in all Rescue decks im sure of it since they both are really good cards. Spyke was obviously going to get permabanned. Lehane has been banned but it isnt much of a devastating blow when there are other 2 star cards that can easily be helpful in your Sentinel deck. I want to see Striker , Arno and Arkn unbanned.

Striker doesn't seem to pose too much of a threat now since many new cards with the Stop: Power +X or Stop: Damage +X so it should be fine

Yookie should be banned not Arno! Arno doesnt pose much of a threat towards card when it comes to attacking since 4 power isnt really going to be enough to take down 2 stars like Jeff, Sasha , Spiaghi etc. His DR ability may seem like alot but Yookie has the advantage of actually being able to do some damage even though he has that -2 opp dmg min 1.

Arkn is the best 2* in GHEIST and I haven't seen a single person use him in any game mode since Elo is where Arkn shines the most so bring Arkn back!]]>Thu, 16 Aug 2012 18:58:11 GMTJunkz player anymore. Any other Junkies out there?

What is the main problem with Junkz for me? It's mostly the problem of making a life gap.

Fuzz and Haze are the main elo damagers but I find time and time again that 6 power have lost me many battles. Really wish Rowdy was back in action, or even that the UR staff make a nice 3-5 star Junkz that can dish out.

I feel Junkz needs a support card. Something like Moses would really do it for this clan, perhaps even a card with coppy opp bonus.]]>Thu, 16 Aug 2012 13:50:05 GMT
Skeelz is so true....haha I hit with Greem, I have Chiara/Sandro and Dr Falkenstein waiting for you....which one will end your game?

And Rescue......good old Rescue ]]>Thu, 16 Aug 2012 07:36:59 GMTELO bans are getting better and better at bringing the game where it needs to be.

I just want to see Uranus go back out, along with Spaghetti. SPlashable DR that reduce hits to a single point? That'sj ust not good.]]>Tue, 14 Aug 2012 20:54:42 GMTRescue last week, but I hate eating crayons.]]>
