Funny thing is that I was Champion II, and I am still Champion II.... Ubi knows their stuff...

Elvin said: Speaking of which, at which points do you get promoted to champion 2&3?
It's not at what points, it's at what percentage. Points can go up and down, but when you have chain win streaks then your percentage goes up nicely (to get to next champion level).
I am on 50% progression to Champion III which seemed easy enoguh to get to....wondering if the last 50% will be difficult...
@RedEmp: Nice post on good decks and Masfar. Agree that chain casting belongs in Open only. A good event counter is Day of Sanctuary placing on opponent's creature on turn 6....

I'm on the same boat as Watcher. IDC about ranks anymoree, I just playe the game because it's fun for me. (Well more then Other online games I play right now)
I Still need help how to face decks based on Mass Rage. They look so stupid to face with anything but Inferno and Masfer

is focused mind in bs2? if yes go your Yukiko or Seria with 2/3 of them in deck.
EDIT: so I was checking yesterday to see who else got demoted, and one name caught my eye - Pawel999k is post patch a champ II, lol, I mean this guy is a monster of a player, played against him frequently in jp before the hon expansion and he absolutely wrecked face with Garant and Zouleika.

Yes, Focused Mind is in BS2, I use only one in my Seria because I had a lot of problems with Mass Rage decks.

what you guys think?
I also just wanted to mention, that Masfar is quite difficult to get right...it's not that easy, I have been trying and it really is 50/50 depending on water spells in hand and how good your opponent is. So it's not as brain-dead as it seems, in other words, it's not an automatic win at turn 6...I must say though it's quite fun to play...
It's always good to have some events like Day of Sanc, blind arbiters or cosmic balance if you are Masfar angry...
Speaking on ranking:
It's actually quite good that swisses and weekly's don't affect MMR/elo, so can get those daily quest achievements for those dreaded factions one is not a pro with without losing points...I suppose though it's easy to say when one has 130 tickets but then again focus on weekly's for these wins...

This new mmr is funny, after roughly 100 wins and 55-60 losses I am at 10% completion, funny stuff.

Just downloaded this game out of curiosity mostly. If it's good I'll play it more actively. Any advice for a starting noob like me?

Hi Stevie and welcome...
Well mmdocking.com is a great site for information and resources, as well as ubi.com with duel of champions forum/ general discussion.
i would begin with the tutorials in game - build your deck [perhaps use mmdocking as a guide to strong decks] and test to see what works best for you.
There is a beginners guide [can anyone find this] which will be a good read for you. I'll search and see if i can post link ^^

Practice, learn the cards and the mechanics, and no matter what deck u play keep in mind that in the beginning accumulating cards & gameplay experience is way more important than going up the ladder.

Bad news for you is that fortress isn't yet in the game.
This is the best I could do in advice giving

Go for an Inferno deck, it helped me climb quick in the early stages of playing.
