Welcome to HM Lokhan. New guy buys beer.

@ Ross-yeah, guard brawls would be neat and were one of the things i had considered when writing this post. If you do make them, you would probably need to limit the amount of cards a player draws a turn to one or two though, so that people need to think about what Guard abilities are worth using every turn.

@Dies-That could work very well, the limiting of the hand size. As for the amount of players in a game, yes, This would not work well at all with anymore then 4 players.

Hm. An idea could be to have a game type where you each get 4 guardians, but your maximum hand size drops to 3. This way it makes the mage more of a support unit, with the guardians the main army.

Only thing though, I'd recommend keeping this to 4 players or less as 8 players (40 units) on one map would be too much...

Aritheall,

I think there's merit to this idea and definately room to work in the option to play with more guardians.  On the opposite spectrum, I've also been considering the possibility of Mage-only games or Guardian brawls as well.

Hi everyone, i started playing this amazing game today and have had an awesome time so far.

imalso very happy that i can be a part of this friendly community from the start

Big "team" games (3v3, 4v4)? nah. I am a fan of 2v2v2 or 2v2v2v2 when I do look for a nice relaxing game of chaos

Im the opposite... duels are just too boring for me now... I mean, i dont lose them often and usually i win by a mile too.

Big Teams on the other hand chaos is everywhere i love it.

@Dies-Yeah, i thought about that too (after I posted of course), but I still think it would be interesting to try. It would just be another option for people. Perhaps though it would become an unused option like Assassination mode (has anyone every used this play style? I haven't yet or even seen it played). Still, perhaps there would be a way to balance it.

@Tampit-Im not a huge fan of 3v3 or 4v4 games. Being a very competitive person, I prefer 1v1 so that I have only myself to blame for a loss. Also, I have had it in larger games where my Mage or even my whole team has been killed because I went last (having to wait so long or a turn can be annoying as well). Being a huge fan of chess, nothing compares to the thrill of the 1v1. My 1v1 games almost always turn out to be the most intense, and I thought it would be interesting if you threw more guards into the mix or had the option to do so.

Anyway, just an idea...

If you want those Epic battles go on a 3v3 with select teams and heroes
Its all about the teamplay,you even have 3 mages instead of 1
Also I think those battles would be easier if we had some clans
