It's not just me, Zardoc is a top tier hero. The devs have made some questionable or even downright silly balancing at times but I can honestly say that Siegfried had it coming. The specific nerf was still stupid but I prefer it over before.. As far as I'm concerned Alia and Sandalphon are pretty damn good and I'd bet Kieran's still got it despite not being as he used to. Always speaking about a good setup, not with average cards.

I agreed with the nerf of Siegfried (as Haven is generally a defensive faction so health points are difficult to diminish)...but I think they could've kept Kieran as he was, I didn't find him OP.
I agree with Fleshbane, RedEmp has got a good Flesh going with 6/1/4 build using Fate sealers, and recycling bigtime...

....don't hate the player hate the game
I am getting a little sick and tired of constant whinning from everyone about how certain decks are stronger than others.
If anyone has been following what the devs have been saying over all the "balancing issues", they have not indicated that there is 1 OP deck that is destroying everything in it's path.
The whole point of DoC is to build your best strongest deck and if you do so WELL DONE - not the polar opposite of, OMG ive just lost to this stupid strong deck, lets nerf it. Each deck has a ceiling elo, which once reached you either change it or try create a new one - this is just how doc works.
Deck, my flesh deck build would work just as well with Seria who has no active ability, in fact Seria builds better with a 2 fortune start, the extra 1 incorp does help with the wraith, but if people want to crit nec, the devs have isolated the spider as the OP creature.
Well done to the players who have managed to create a deck that has been put onto the podium of, lets nuke that f@#$cker.

I will tell you one thing about the expansion announced for September:
It will force EVERYONE to change their decks (and not necessarily by buying the new packs) in a way that will make things QUITE interesting again for those who've seen it all and simply have optimized their decks for the cards they actually have.
I would like to tell you something about the new method to make a go for a card you want to have, but I don't know myself how this will EXACTLY work.
In any case I think that the expansion will actually surpass the Sanctuary expansion (and the Herold one as well, of course).

To be honest, I would say that Seria is a lot better than Fleshbane, not just because of the better stats, but because you are forced to play a lot of Incorporeal creatures with Fleshbane(you are not exactly forced, but if you are not doing it, what is the point in playing him?) and with how much we are seeing Week of the Tamed Spirit event, it is more of an liability than anything else.
That being said, the decks are bit different, Fate Sealer is pretty solid card in my opinion for Fleshbane, where I wouldn't use it at all with Seria.

Sorry Dave_Jame, maybe with the new expansion, you'll be able to get those cards you want....
Speaking of which, I can't wait to get my hands on Dhamiria in the Pit....besdies the OTK version of him, are there other good deck suggestions out there that are "creature heavy" for Dhamiria?

No point in using that one, LQDBrunt was still improving the deck when he posted it. Try my Dhamiria deck, it includes most of his recent changes except it has 2 abyssal lords in the place of 2 void callers. I had 4 so screw abyssal lords ^^
But if you want something beefier, try those:

Actually, people, be VERY careful before you invest heavily into one or more cards ("invest" meaning either burning cards in the Pit or sacrificing seals to buy stuff) OR a specific deck build. Just a hint from your friendly neighbor.

Agreed JJ, note that with deck builds being mentioned - just because you get Dharmia, you need specific unique cards to make her formidable!! this you will find out after today and the mass comm download of her - enjoy testing

I am sure that most people overlook how certain cards can get weaker or stronger in view of future combos and heroes. I always hold on to cards I do not use, you never know.

Should be like any epic and if you consider that you'd need to sacrifice the value of 20 epics.. Yeah, expensive.

Luckily, I have 2 Adar-Maliks, 2 Zardocs, 3 Blood Callers, 4 Prisons etc., I will manage it, hopefully.
And about sacrificing cards, I never sacrifice all the cards, no matter how useless they are. I leave just enough for any deck(4 if normal cards, 1 if unique).

Dhamiria is the one hero I wouldn't take even if it was free for the taking, too OP to be fun in my book.
