I just started playing TES: Legends Beta the day before yesterday (Maybe... I've lose track of time while playing.) XD

I absolutely love the game and I wanted to hear about other people's experiences.

I'll go first.

I was in one match (losing terribly) and all I had left standing between me and defeat was this one "weak" dunmer guy —I can't remember which one, but his Last Gasp effect let him summon a random creature equal to or less than my current max magika. He died and in his place came a dragon! In the end I won. Came back from an almost certain doom. The best part was I had that dragon card, but it was not in my current deck, so it made it all the more surprising (for both me and my opponent).

Also, if anyone wants to challenge me or just add me as a friend I'm: TailinSero

I'll add you as a friend, feel free to ask to duel me (I think there's an option to do that on the friends list) whenever you want. You can guess my username xD It's good to exercise, I never exercise with the AI and prefer to gain knowledge in player vs player games. I play through the story mode, yes, I just don't click on the "exercise" option.

I've been playing for a while already and I love it. While there are many card games online, the two lanes make it different, I know people heard it many times but I have to say it. People who compare it to Hearthstone have watched only trailers or maybe didn't do even that. My boyfriend plays HS and I often watch him play so I know what I'm talking about. Also, meeting the Adoring Fan etc. in TES:L is fun. This is my first card game, though, so I still have to fix my decks and I lose a lot. But I'm improving. My best time was when I played against a 5-rank person and won while I had 1 health (I'm at rank 9, which is lower than rank 5, just saying for anyone not playing TES:L). My best decks are the Scout (agility + endurance) and Monk (agility + willpower) and my race is Khajiit. I shit my pants when the opponent has one of those cards that give each card a keyword ;_;

I logged off because I'm going to sleep. Damn, why is there no chat in TES: L? Or am I missing something?

Sorry for beating your butt a bit. Tommorow you can revenge. I bet you can. You are in favour of the three Good Daedra. (By the way, I love the way you have different greetings etc. depending on your race. Dunmer and Khajiit especially. We have a good taste in races)

I wanted to share something from a pack I bought today with in-game gold... (sorry for shitty phone pic)

That's awesome! I really want Volendrung so I can add it to my dwemer deck, which was the deck I used against you that first match. I made a new deck and it's great. I played like a bunch of games (around 12-ish) and only lost 3! I also have Knip Relic as a friend on Legends and in our last two practices I lost against him until we met in a ranked match. It was pretty close, but I won. Hahaha

Does Legends take up much space on PC? I have a laptop that I use for Morrowind and soon Oblivion, if it doesn't take up much space I'll be happy to join you lads :)

I don't think so, I can't check it right now but it's a card game, so it surely takes much less space than these two xD

I always thought of making a Dwemer deck because I heard they are good but I was too lazy so far.
First I used an Argonian deck, because I love the purple endurance cards, like the Grim Champion. It's a mix of Argonian cards, a few Khajiits, and some cool endurance cards. There is a necromancer card that lets you summon one card from your deck that "died" in the game. My second deck was based mostly on draining and pfilfering (Khajiiti agility-willpower deck).

Yeah, it's playstyle with two lanes is specific... It took me a long time to really become good at it.

I tried the Arena today. I was so nervous, because you have to fight 9 opponents and then the boss, and you can lose maximum 3 times, and if you lose you have to fight the opponent you lost with again. The AI is dumb, but still. I managed to do it somehow but it was close to losing many times. I lost 2 times, one time with an opponent who played the same class as me, and the second time with the boss. But I have to admit I was sitting here with another person who helped xD Otherwise I probably wouldn't manage.

So... I got the Adoring Fan card. Yay. Of course there are other rewards but this one is so good. It's effects are: "Adoring Fan will return. Adoring fan cannot be silenced." :')

For anyone who wants to know, the effects mean that the Adoring Fan is put back into the person's deck from which it can be drawn again (he returns), and that you cannot remove his effecs (cannot be silenced). He has the guard effect, too. 0 attack and 1 defense.

My god the damn Adoring Fan will never leave me. I thought I killed him on Dive Rock many years ago... No, he's back to annoy the piss out of me xD

I've never been able to get even close to beating the arena. But I did get Queen Barenziah for leveling up earlier today.

Crow-Silencer, you should send me a friend request. I'm TailinSero.

I also play on a laptop with Skyrim installed and I still have a bunch of space left over. Also does anybody else get randomly disconnected from Legends and/or the internet while playing?

Add me too guys (KnipRelic) I started making a goblin army deck and I threw a couple high elves in there to "train" the goblins and just a ton of action cards to set off my high elves' bonus effects. Don't have as many goblins as I wanted so to make up for it I'm using Dunmer but as I unlock more goblins I'll be switching them out. I also want to get Queen barenzia and put her in there to rep mournhold (obviously)

I have used the Bone Colossus card on the Arena a lot and I want it so much now. As I said, though, alone I wouldn't manage at all. I only completed the arena because I was sitting and thinking together with someone.

I've made an endurance-only deck + the Adoring Fan. It kicks ass. When I'll have the Bone Colossus, it will give bonuses to all those undead, mmmm.

I don't get randomly disconnected but if you think it's TES:L-related, maybe you should post it in the Support section of the TES: Legends forums.

I always get Grim Champion in the arena and he's the best. Whenever a creature in its lane dies, it gains +1/+1 so when you pair him with a guard (preferably with regen and lethal) and just sacrifice your weaker monsters to take out theirs and WHAM! You've got a heavy hitter (it's easier to win this way against the AI btw they almost always attack guards even if they have regen and lethal)

And the Gloom Wraith is lovely too, getting all that boost from the purple cards on the table. Btw, below you can see one of my favourite decks, my Endurance deck. When I'll add the Bone Colossus, this will be a killer deck. Just sharing, you can tell me if you'd change anything and you can share your decks.
I just changed my avatar to Argonian because I think I collected most of the Khajiit cards already.

Him too! It'll take some time and luck. Maybe it will drop in a deck like Volendrung did...

That's how I got him. I got him from a deck I won while trying my first arena.

Ok, now I have to share the most mischievious thing I did in TES: Legends. There is that card, Siege Catapult. It costs 2 magicka and has 5/5 stats. Its effects are "Siege Catapult can't attack unless your side of its lane is full."

I was playing against someone and of course he made sure to remove the other cards from my side of the lane when the Siege Catapult was there. I have put that card at the beginning already. Of course he did not remove the Siege Catapult because... why? It cannot attack anyway!

But then at the end of the game when he had 3 health but I was also in a quite dangerous situation as well, I used silence on my Siege Catapult. Of course then it was able to attack, and I killed my opponent...

Aside from dividing the animal and undead card types, update 1.59.2.2493 also changed some of the images for some cards. So far the only one I've noticed is the Redoran Enforcer. Before this card's image was a Dunmer wearing Thalmor-like robes, which in my opinion was dumb, but now the Redoran Enforcer is wearing full bonemold armor wielding a spear, which makes him look more like a Redoran Guard and is super cool!

I've got the General Tulius card from that pack with 10 packs and special title and special 3 cards. And an Imperial Might support card. I'm going to improve my Imperial deck soon.

Also, they changed my dear Bone Colossus. He grants the +1/+1 to skeletons only, not just all undead. Oh well, I can live with that. I can agree he was too powerful.

Yeah. That Dunmer looked more Telvanni, perhaps we will see him on another card. It would be a shame if any art would be wasted. The thing I want the most is a full gallery of all that yummy art. And knowledge who was so talented to draw all those precious characters.

What I don't like is the mummy type that came with the new update. It should be Zombie instead. Draugr and Mummies could all be in there instead I think draugr are skeleton type cards and that doesn't really make sense to me.

Yeah. I can't understand, though, why they fix cards like Bone Colossus and not the Mundus Stone. The Mundus Stone is terribly powerful.
