Hi folks! New player here, sorta. I played BattleForge a little back in its original beta but couldn't really get any of my friends into it at the time.
I barely remember anything from that time, though so I consider my experience level to be more or less fresh, but I jumped on this as soon as I found out about Skylords Reborn.
Now... having just played the tutorial and first singleplayer level... I'm realising the game is most likely at this point where there's a clearly established PvP meta and everyone else playing naturally knows a lot more about the game than I do.
I've found just looking at the cards available to build decks with at the start, I'm a little overwhelmed by options and numbers and not really knowing what's good (and I only have the cards my account starts with!).
I absolutely adore the concept of this game, but it feels at this stage like I'm a little overwhelmed by the amount of information to take in and I don't really know where to start. What cards should I be looking at? What do the numbers on them mean? What do I need to know to play properly? What are the differences in playstyles between the factions and which ones should I combine? Why do some cards have their costs outlined in another faction's colour?
Someone help a newcomer out please?
