Epic Cards Battle

Due to huge difference between epic players and average or newbie player I'd like to propose new game -mode which is dependent on cards cap.

There would be for example 3 cap limits: to 25 to 40 and unlimited. Player is choosing cap limit and he can pick only card to max limit. Game mode would be similar to bet mode, but if u reach the limit u cant pick another card - for example u picked 4 cards and you reached the limit - your enemy can pick another cards but u cant. The point is, it would be all about strategy not only about owning bests cards. It would be really interesting seeing best players using only basic cards:) this mode should have three ladder leagues, but the bigger cap limit the bigger price for winning.

Second thing - game bet including diamonds! Btw I think cap game mode would b perfect for diamond bet. And againg higher cap limit - bigger bet.

3rd thing: hardcore bet! For example hardcore bet for 500 coins, would be fun.

Please enter the discussion.

Hi noob I like the idea a lot of caps a lot too and posted something similar before. I will repost here to bring back discussion on this idea:

"Been thinking about 8 person tournament and how it could incentivize new and medium players to play there rather than mine gold in replaying quest. Came up with better idea. Round 1, CAP max of 30, round 2, CAP max of 45, round 3, unlimited CAP. 300 buy in so people can afford to do it a lot. Top three get paid, runoff game for third (1000, 500, 300). In first round doesn't matter how many epic and legend you have you will require skill only to advance. Silver and gold card very important. Round two mix of skill and some upper cards. Round three anything goes. Can't buy your way into round two gotta be good. What you think ECB and other players? Plus guild of course! "

This is an older post but still feel like a tournament style format if three rounds consisting of progressive cap would be great and "keep new players from being as a hard by pay players." It would be great for some free player to say "hey I beat bookie or necklet or other top player. This is the type of excitement that can bring new players into the game more and of course rounds two and three get tougher so they will be even more encouraged to buy cards by having success in round 1. Of course this doesn't have to be a coin bet mode. Perhaps it could be part Iadder it separate or even part of guild mode. Now that sounds exciting.

Well Your idea seems to b fine 2. Specially tournament part, which could be added revgardless if there would be cap limit or not.

Still, I'd really like go see any battle mode which consist diamond bet (as I wrote before, cap mode would be perfect cuz of nearly equal chance of winnning).

Got next idea. An event game. It would be like campgain, but with some better reward - for example 5 diamonds. It would look like this way: every 6 hour gamemaster is making 3 quests (like ordinary 3 star campgain quest). U can't use epics and u can't use same cards next quests. Two first players which complete the quess are fighting each other ( they also can't use cards they did use before) and winner get reward. The quest is starting at same day time everyday.

But every daily event quest would be nice. First player who will win 5 coin bet, first 3 hardcore win, first player who will win 3 battle loot (there should be good reward), first player who will complete daily quests, or more complicated - first player who will win three games in a row using only silver cards etc. The thing is to bring something new in game.

I have thought about adding CAP maximums as well and I can see one problem with it. You can't do Pro Mode with a CAP maximum in a convenient way. What happens in the coding if someone uses up 29 CAP in the first 4 cards of a maxCAP=30 game? Do they just not get to play cards 5 and 6? Do they lose automatically for going over the CAP? I'm not saying the problem can't be worked out, just that it is a difficult one that will require a lot of thought and testing.

Actually you both bring up a good point. If someone uses up cap then they select no more cards is a brilliant idea. It's actually no problem it's exciting. I can see some pay players trying to play four stronger cards vs a free players six weaker cards. If that's not fair I don't know what is but I think it would be more advantageous to play six weaker cards so people will of course adapt and figure out how to manage their cap. Maybe sometimes they only play five cards bc they got the perfect combination and hey everyone's got a level 1 silver card they can just nudge in if needed.

Also if this seems of interest to devs perhaps they can incorporate this into timeouts. Say someone selects four cards and then times out then they play four cards vs six. They're pretty much dead but at least ecb gave them a long shot and this maybe easier than ecb figuring out how to selectast two randomly or whatever.

Ehh they added my reply after one day... No wonder forum is dead...

+1 to bookie, if player reaches cap limit he cant use more cards. About timeouts - they can add " finish " buttton, when u click it ur deck is ready to fight no matter how many cards did u pick.

What do u guys think about diamonds bet?

In regards to 8 person three round tourney viewpoint. The cap conundrum can also be circumvented by saying diamond card below first round, legend card below second round, epics and all third round. This way first round no pay player is even using cards that are inaccessible to newer players. Of course they wil still have advantage of higher level but remember this is a game and ecb needs to make money. They are not going to introduce a mode that encourages people not to pay all together.

Im for cap limit battle mode in general not only in tournament mode. We cant invent 2 much modes cuz not much players online.

Is like to c for example quest available only 1 hour in day with special prizes. Would be fun.

Any new modes can bring joy in game. Bring here some new ideas!

Btw, again what do u think about diamonds bets?

Diamond bet will probably never happen. Pay players will just win all the diamonds from newer players making them want to quit and them not having to buy as much diamonds. And if you set it up with a cap limit diamond bet then free players could in theory win lots of diamonds and not have to become a pay player. They'd be less inclined.

Of course I'm all for the idea but it sounds good in theory and probably not something that ecb will want to do from their own view point. Who knows. There is also the ability to abuse diamond bet by creating multiple accounts and funneling all the diamonds to one account. This makes the idea even that more unlikely.

U cant have 2 acc at one mobile.

Diamonds bet may cause diamond gambling, so ppl will lose some dimonds in battle and they will buy new ones for money to take revange.

Possibility of making more diamonds than one daily may bring new p(l)ayers to game.
