  1. what this means is if you play Sunstriders, you are technically able to play Eruptions, but not allowed until you build your T2.
  2. As expected, the fire tribes with their Sunstriders are the first who have valiantly entered the tournament!
  3. I would interpret a "Defend here" in the back line as a fallback-position.
  4. "If you haven’t logged in for a long time, your account was most likely reset when the beta ended. With the full release of Skylords Reborn in December 2020, there was a last and forever final reset." ~~ Rogan Kayle
  5. There are rumors that someone was nagging about it until the team made it tradabe πŸ˜‰ On a more serious note: It would be wise to get it the Snappies now before the supply runs out.
  6. I think in the case of Mana Wing, my long term guess is that more achievement-related promos will appear over time – one for each pure faction.
  7. This man speaks truth. Keep preachin' ! πŸ˜ƒ
  8. @T1421 how about a public vote? draw-on-demand πŸ˜„
  9. Don't know why you are switching the topic to PvP now, but I have criticized the SR team that too many resources go towards PvP, so it seems we might agree partly on that. Maybe you have mistaken me for someone who is a big PvP guy? I don't know otherwise, possibly you can explain why the topic is switched to PvP. I'm wondering because most of the hated changes of the "nostalgia players" have nothing to do with PvP. (And just as a sidenote, a β€œmeasurement” of 140 online players at 16:00 CET rather proofs my claim of 1k players than disproofs it.)
  10. Of course, there can be different opinions on what direction the game should take, and what effect it will have. But this point I'd like to refute: When more than 2000 people are filling out the yearly survey, and we get participation of 300+ on an event, "making 1000 players happy" is a low-estimate - on planet Earth.
  11. The question is: Do you want this game to succeed or not? The old EA-version was utterly broken, and yes, a few people are having fun with it in this state for nostalgic reasons. If you think the SR team can just flick on a switch and there is a second, old version of the game available, you are mistaken. You need to pour resources into such an undertaking – manpower better spent on making the current (objectively better!) version even more awesome. It's a fool's quest to make the same 20-30 people happy, and not develop the potential for this game to make 1000 happy – or much, much more. Yes, maybe those "would have played it for many more years", but the game will never have any appeal to new players.
  12. What is Advanced Filtering? Your card collection has clickable filters like rarity, orb colour, and more. But there is also an extremely powerful search bar that accepts special commands to filter your cards. Below you will find a list of all those commands with some explanations. (Please note, due to the necessary formatting, this article will look weird on mobile devices.) Basic Filters Command Example promo: + 1 or 0 `promo:1` (Instead of 1/0 you can also use: true/false, yes/no) flying: + 1 or 0 ranged: + 1 or 0 melee: + 1 or 0 name= + exact card name e.g.: `name=Mo` (exact match) name: + part of card name e.g.: `name:enli` name? + approximate card name e.g.: `name?abonimation` class name= e.g.: `class name=Soldier` (exact match) class name: e.g.: `class name:Archer` class name? e.g.: `class name?Dominatrix` ability= e.g.: `ability=swift` ability: ability? class: + ID (or SR assigned name) e.g.: `class:female` rarity: or rarity= + rarity name e.g.: `rarity:rare` affinity: or affinity= + affinity name e.g.: `affinity:shadow` edition: or edition= + edition name (or ID) e.g.: `edition:twilight` colors() e.g.: `colors(nature, !fire, !shadow)` to see only nature, and Stonekin `colors(fire, !other)` to show only fire cards colors=() exact match, e.g. `colors=(fire, nature)` to see only Twilight size: + type e.g.: `size:XL` counter: + type e.g.: `counter:XL` Affinity names: `shadow`, `nature`, `frost`, `fire`, and `-` or `none` for cards without affinity Edition names: `3` =`twilight`, `4` = `renegade`, `5` = `lostsouls`, `6` = `amii`, `7` = `rebirth` Color names: `fire`, `frost`, `shadow`, `nature`, `neutral`, `other` Size and Counter types: `S`, `M`, `L`, `XL`, `special` (special is used for buildings or magic) Number Range Filters Operators: power + number range e.g.: `power>300` damage + number range e.g.: `damage>500` health + number range e.g.: `health>500` upgrade + number range e.g.: `upgrade<3` to show cards that are missing an upgrade charges + number range e.g.: `charges<3` to show cards that are missing a charge copies + number range e.g.: `copies>4` to show what to reforge ID + number range (mostly for internal/development use and for the search in market feature) Combining Filters Operators: Logical OR matches at least one of the filters. If one is matching and the other is not, it will return a result. Logical AND has to match both filters. Only if both conditions apply will it return a result. Logical NOT inverts the result. Beware that not all filters can be inverted, that's why it may be advisable to use !(filter). Wrapping the filter with `( )` does not change it in any way, but allows easier organization. Error Tolerance ? Name ?<number> Name The question mark will help you to search a text with error tolerance. If you know the card name, but you are not sure about spelling, you may use this. You can also use ?<number> to specify the error tolerance you want, e.g. 'name?5' for up to five typos in the name. If you do not specify the tolerance level, level 3 will be used. β€œ?Light blade” will find β€œLightblade” even though the search input had a space in it – β€œ?1Light blade” would also work (because it only contains just one typo). Custom Filters *name* You can create any custom filter you want, `Documents\BattleForge\custom_filter_extensions.json` contains some examples. In-game you can use `*name*` (where `name` is the name of the custom filter), e.g.: *shiny* Note: Numbers [0-9] are not allowed for naming custom filters. Market Place Filtering Advanced Filters also work on the marketplace – for example, if you want to see all cards that you do not own yet, you can use 'copies<1' to find out: Filter Examples class:Dragon Finding dragons for the Draconic Desolation achievement class:Female What works with Girl Power? charges=3 & copies>1 Something you might want to sell on the market charges=3 & copies>4 Something you might want to Reforge charges<3 & copies>1 All cards not fully charged, but you have additional copy, so you might want to apply it rarity>2 To see only rare and ultra-rare cards Suggest your best filters in the comments, so we may add them to the examples! Keyword List – Languages and Synonyms Final Notes There is an always up-to-date version of this information in your Skylords Reborn\docs folder. Additionally, for more information about why this system was created, and how it works, feel free to read HERE. A special thanks goes out to @Kubik, who made this awesome feature possible and keeps on developing more features for it.
  13. Hello Skylords, Skyladies, and other Skybeings; and welcome to CCC #9 – the ninth Crappy Community Contest! THE CONTEST HAS ENDED. To see the winners, CLICK HERE. If you are just here to grab the code, there you go: CCC9-BOWA-NDST-RING What are β€œCrappy Community Contests”? CCC's are meant to be small-scale contests with weird challenges, hopefully luring you away from well-trodden paths. They are small-scale on the organizers side too: usually there will be no stream, video, or event announcing the winners. What's special about these contests is a participation prize for the whole Skylords community. After a short pause, the CCC is back again, this time with a rPvE Challenge: What, when, where, how? The Archer's Tournament All the famous archers want to settle this question once and for all: Which of them is the strongest? This challenge is to win the highest possible single-player rPvE Map of the Month in the fastest time under severe card limitations. In this challenge, you are sent to win a rPvE MotM as fast as you can, using mainly T1 archers to destroy your enemies. You may unlock a maximum total of 3 cards (limited choice) by building your orbs: Tier 1: Chose your Archers Tier 2: Unlocks your first support spell Tier 3: Unlocks your second support spell Winners will be ranked according to the usual ranking tables – first on difficulty, then on time. For example, if you have an ultra-slow run on a rPvE difficulty 6 map, you will still be ranked higher than all difficulty 5 entries. Clearing a map with only archers is hard? Fear not! If you only want to participate, you may enter with a simple rPvE Difficulty Map of the Month Difficulty 1 run under these rules, making you eligible for the random prizes, which will only take you a minute or two. Clarifications: Don't forget to select Map of the Month! Replays with randomly generated maps are not allowed to enter the tournament. Even if you are able to play out a spell mentioned on Tier 2/Tier 3 earlier, you are only allowed to cast it once your orb has been built. If you don't want or need the T2 or T3 support spells, of course, you can ignore them and just build a big army of archers. You may also choose a second spell listed on Tier 2 after building your Tier 3, but you are not allowed to pick a second archer card. Lastly, even though the above pictures are of cards without upgrades, you can of course use your fully upgraded ones. The red affinity of Wintertide is allowed, but please note that the Infused Defense is plain worse in this challenge scenario. How to enter: Battleforge automatically saves a replay file of the last match you play, named autosave.pmv. After playing the map, rename this file, so it doesn't get overwritten. You can find your replays here: Documents => Battleforge => replays. The contest has started with the release of this post – submit your replay through Discord (DM to Kapo#0116) or the Skylords Forum (DM to @Kapo) until 10.12.2022 23:59 CET (= 8 days time total). You can submit multiple times, but only your best entry will count. Please note that any submitted replays may be posted here in the forums. To lessen my workload, please rename your replay to the following format: CCC9_<difficulty>_<time>_<name>.pmv (e.g. CCC9_5_17.22_Kapo.pmv) What's the prize pool? Since this is not just a crappy contest, but a Crappy Community Contest, you may help with your participation to earn a prize for the whole community. If we reach more than 25 participants (unique players, not entries), we will unlock a Mini-Booster code for the entire Skylords community. If more than 40 participants enter, the code will be upgraded to a Booster instead of a Mini-Booster. So tell your fellow Skylords to try this challenge – it's an occasion to try something completely new, and it raises our chances to hand out a code for everybody. Of course, the top ranking Skylords will get prizes too, sponsored by myself, the Community and the Skylords Reborn Team: 1st place 5 General Boosters + Promo Razorleaf 2nd place 4 General Boosters + Promo Rogan Kayle 3rd place 3 General Boosters + Promo Lyrish Knight 4th place 2 General Boosters + Harvester + Bandit Minefield 5th place 1 General Booster + Amii Monument 6th place Disenchant (G) + Deepcoil Worm 7th place Cluster Explosion (R)+ Razorleaf 8th place Parasite Swarm + Soulshatter 9th place Ice Age (G) + Transcendence 10th place Stronghold 11-15th place Two Rare cards (see sponsored cards below) 16-20th place One Rare card (see below) Last place Juice Tank (x4) For participation, there is a random chance to win one of the following cards out of a large pool: Random Draws 5x1 General Booster, Evil Eye (x5), Spitfire, Stronghold, QueekQueek, Church of Negation, Mine, Nether Warp (B), Ice Age (B), Timeshifter Spirit, Mindweaver, Wrathgazer, Abyssal Warder (R), Mine, Frenetic Assault (R), Ashbone Pyro (x2), Cultist Master, Satanael (R), Razorleaf (x2), Wildfire, Deepcoil Worm, Mark of the Keeper, Hurricane, Corsair (G) (x2), Corsair (P), Bandit Minefield (x2), Banzai Lord (P) (x3), Lost Shade (B) (x2), Twilight Creeper (R), Abomination (P), Sunderer, Juggernaut, Shrine of War, Batariel (R), Earthshaker, Soulshatter, Home Soil (x2), War Eagle, Worldbreaker Gun, Battleship, Ice Tornado, Mana Wing, Spikeroot, Shrine of Memory, Colossus, Bloodhorn (P) (x2), Bloodhorn (R) (x2), Nightshade Plant (G), Abomination (B), Lost Shade (P), Lost Grigori (P), Transcendence, Grinder (R), Grinder (P), Viridya, Brannoc, Mo, The Incredible Mo, Jorne (x2), Ravenheart, Embalmers Shrine, Nightguard (P), Skyelf Sage, 250 BFP (x20). This CCC also features again a Newcomer Card Pool. By participating, players of Bronze or Silver Rank will automatically receive at least one valuable uncommon card (more likely two or three). Of course, you may also win other random draws additionally if you are lucky. The Newbie Card Pool contains the following cards: Should we get more too many entries, the pool will be expanded, so every newcomer will receive a guaranteed card. Those expansion cards will be rare cards (instead of more Uncommons), so tell your fellow beginner to participate!

I would be more than happy to beef up or expand the prize pool, add additional random draws, special bounties or any other upgrades to the prize pool.

  14. Good idea, and should be easy to do – it does already do that with "space", but space is useless cause you just entered the price and while in that field the space does not react. Switching it to enter would finally make it work like it should πŸ˜ƒ
  15. Informed sources suggest it is already being worked on πŸ˜‰
  16. I think such options would be nice for those who can't play for a while, and they don't hurt anybody really. As long as the necessary gold scales up the same way it does right now, it should be fine. Also agree on that it would counteract "natural" occurring card prize spikes.
  17. For the functionality we players need, the empty spaces are irrelevant anyway, and I'm not 100% sure they are copied over at all when someone would share you a deck with such spaces. As I mentioned in the other forum thread, this will lift us out of the dark ages when we share decks with screenshots.
  18. Next time videotape them πŸ˜‰
  19. Good thing the process would be gradual; cause its very unlikely that anybody makes a jump from 100 to 1000 decks in a day.
  20. Thanks for the testing! At least we can say now that it slows down, but never kills the game. πŸ‘ As said before, I think Lebos suggestion with a warning would be best anyway.
