Commonwealth card

[fox]

"Deal 20 damage to enemy HQ if your HQ has 30 or more defense. Draw 4 cards."


.......what kind of balance is this, even?

I just got my bollocks handed over by someone just spamming cards to go through his deck, spamming cheap guard and increasing his HQ HP, then drop that card on me as soon as he had it. Basically no units other than that 1/5 and Churchills. What in the....

Was thinking the same thing once I'd encountered this card this card. But it's balanced...

It's an elite card, so you can only add 1 to your deck. You must also get your HQ defense up to 30 and maintain it throughout the match even if your lucky enough to draw the card by then, most of the time you're trying to defend your hq.

It's a late game card. So you have to pay your dues just in order to play it.

If your playing commonwealth imo.. It's just used as a last option to win the match. Your're going to mainly focus on defeating/defending your enemy before even trying to play that card. lol

The whole point is you just have to have a build draw card after card. the Brits have plenty of cards to beef up the HQ, you don't even need to attack, you just to play units with Guard until you get to 12 KR and play the card as you as you get it. It's just mindboggling.

Commonwealth falls apart against counter heal and you generally have to add piss poor units to make the deck work effectively. It's a deck that's built around an OTK that's pretty easy to counter.

Naturally, you won't be able to counter every deck in the game with decks you're using, but Commonwealth has pretty simple counter play to it, especially if you have sticky big units floating in your deck. There's only so many bounce cards available.

Yeah exactly. Once the enemy does any kind of damage to your hq before you can acquire 12k. It's basically a race to either get the 30pts for hq or changing tactics to actually kill your enemy with your more beefy cards.

That's why I stopped playing it. I think you'll have more fun playing commandos. lol

I just faced it today. It's WAY OVERPOWERED and makes me want to quit. All you have to do is play guards until 10k. That's not strategy.

I too think that various additional healing options have made it a bit more powerful lately, although it can be countered by healing cards that bring your health over 20.
