No kidding. I’ve played a ton of Ascension and almost never see ties
Losing to a tie is the worst loss in this game…
Yes, good games.
I was quite surprised by the outcome of the second match, I was convinced I’d won that one. Nice matches
I had some high point Mechana cards
In the pause, does anyone have any favourite expansions? @Blackfyre and I are playing a lot of VotA, and I keep playing Delirium + Dreamscape with a random, both of which are interesting tweaks to the game.
Yes, I’ve been enjoying our games too.
I like the Delirium, Deliverance, Dreamscape and Valley of ancients expansions very much. I prefer to play them separately and not to mix. Mostly because I haven’t reached the feeling that I’ve “seen it all” for any of them separately.
I like that DoC gives you a champion to help focus your play and give the game the slightest of asymmetry.
I’ve been playing one expansion for a few days then change to another. This is the first I’ve really started to get a feel for how each one is different. I’ve not developed a favorite just yet, but love that the mechanics are basically the same, but the gameplay changes.
I bought an all expansion pack a few years ago and it has everything except a few of the promo packs. I rarely play with the promo packs that I have so I’m not really sure I’m missing out on much.
Glad this league came along to inspire me to play Ascension some more!
I do too; this was my favorite set until I kept losing with it…
I often swap out the base set for DoC, then just pair it with another set.
I don’t care about the promos much either and can’t really even recall what is in them with one big exception - the portals. The last promo set (I think) has portal cards that can literally be any card in the entire game. That adds a little craziness.
Hi All!
Apologies on delay - I WILL get better…
7th Round!
@Feygor vs @robthomasson
@Baelnor vs @Mirefox
@geigerm vs @kennfusion
@Blackfyre vs @KYakerDude
@SpiceTheCat vs @jason1002
@js619 vs @johnl
@JaneHatke vs @JMH.75
@JaneHatke / @geigerm - Did I miss the results of your matchup by chance?
You didn’t miss anything because @JaneHatke and I are not quite done, so neither of us posted results.
I won our first game 65-63 and just took my final turn in our second game–got the honor pool down to 0, so we’ll see the results after Jane takes her turn.
EDIT: Both games done, with screenshots below. Good games, Jane!
