Grüß dich,
ich muss dich allerdings darauf aufmerksam machen, das wir im Forum und Discord nur Englisch schreiben (oder zumindest eine Übersetzung hinzufügen), eine Frage der Höflichkeit (und Regeln). Falls dir dieses schwerfällt, ist es völlig in Ordnung einfach mit einem Übersetzer deines Vertrauens zu arbeiten, einen Blick wert ist https://www.deepl.com/translator

Zu deinem Anliegen: Es ist schwer ein Deck für alles zu finden, zumindest einige Karten zu tauschen - je nach Einsatzzweck - bietet sich je nach dem schon an. Die meisten Decklisten die du hier und auf dem Discord findest werden wohl für RPVE sein, aber es werden sich sicher auch einige für die Kampange finden. Gerade die ersten beiden Schwierigkeitsgrade kann man evtl. noch ganz ok mit einem Allround Deck angehen.

Auf Grund der zahllosen Möglichkeiten die es gibt, wäre es evtl. hilfreich zu wissen was dir Spaß macht oder in welche Richtung es gehen soll. Wenn du brandneu dabei bist, finde ich zum Beispiel diesen Thread hier sehr empfehlenswert:
Ansonsten kann ich nur empfehlen einfach mal hier zu stöbern, evtl. auch mal in diesen Thread zu schauen:
Oder auf dem Discord vorbeizuschauen, wo es seit neuestem einen "Deckbuilding" Kanal gibt, wo du auch gezielte Fragen stellen kannst.


 
Greetings,
I must point out that we only write in English in the forum and Discord, a matter of politeness (and rules). If you find this difficult, it's perfectly fine to just work with a translator you trust, worth a look is https://www.deepl.com/translator.
About your request: It's hard to find a deck for everything, at least swapping some cards - depending on the purpose - is a good idea. Most decklists you will find here and on Discord will probably be for RPVE, but there will surely be some for combat as well. Especially the first two difficulty levels can be tackled with an allround deck.
Because of the countless possibilities it might be helpful to know what you like or in which direction it should go. If you're brand new to it, I highly recommend this thread for example:
[Click and drag to move].
Otherwise I can only recommend to have a look here, maybe also at this thread:
[Click and drag to move]
Or have a look at the Discord, where there is a new "Deckbuilding" channel, where you can ask specific questions.

That is the same, but better. Nice idea Sir!

Thanks for your suggestion. We're currently in the process of developing a completely new version of the Updater which is almost ready to get rolled out. So we won't add any new features in the current version unfortunately.
In the new Updater we can of course take that into consideration. However there's already a feature to activate "Auto start". So you only start the Updater and it will automatically start the game after the update check has been completed. I hope, that this is also a reasonable solution for you. And of course we're always open for any suggestion and improvement. 🙂

Can I request you patch the patcher so that the Play button is focused and you can just press Enter to play? Currently, pressing enter will do nothing, pressing tab once focuses the close button... You have to tab 7 times to get to Play. Or shift+tab 3 times.

Goes in the same direction for me.

Coat artwork is just suuuuper awesome, and also like how the card plays.
Banzai voice lines are super awesome too, damn what a cool voice.
Also the gameplay is a bit underwhelming and tho it is a bit anti-meta due to how the game works, I have much love for the Wasteland Terror too. Just love dragons!
Evil Eye goes boom, who does not like it?!
And ofc, Bandit Minefield, just the best card in the game! @Hirooo 😉  (can't tag you here, cause I don't know whats your forums name, but perhaps you see it by chance)

Yeah, the Reborn edition is already a masterpiece, great job guys and girls!!


EDIT-PS: Patch when? 😛

Favourite Art: Coat and Transcendence
Favourite Card to play: Bandit Minefield
... but my heart always goes out mainly to the Snappies.

This picture looks so good!
The team did an awesome job the past 2 years in creating such awesome new cards! 
My favorite among them has to be either the Bandit Sniper or the Evil Eye. My favorite artwork is Coat of Protection. The most played card is probably Bandit Minefield. 

cool

Happy new year, Skylords!
A new year; a new Community Update! It's time to bring you up to speed with everything going on in Skylords Reborn!

• 2nd Anniversary Stream

The 18th of December marked the 2nd Anniversary of Skylords Reborn! Two years ago, after many years of internal development and open stress tests, BattleForge was playable once again. We are very grateful for all your continued enthusiasm and support! 
On the anniversary, we hosted a celebration stream. If you missed it, you can view it on our YouTube channel. We will also cover most of the announcements in this Community Update.
Please note: The Anniversary Card Creation Contest ends today. If you want to participate, do so now! 
 



• Upcoming Content Patch

Sadly, our upcoming Content Patch which was planned for December didn't make it in time. The combination of many things to review (including our new feature Cosmetics) and the busy holidays proved to be a bit too ambitious. 
Since the upcoming patch will break replays due to the many balance changes deployed alongside it, we know it's far from ideal for events to not have a set patch date. We are doing our best to release the patch as soon as possible in early January, but sadly can't lock in a concrete date yet.
Please keep an eye on the Discord and the forum for more information in the coming days. 


• Upcoming Feature: Cosmetics

For our first anniversary patch, we had Reforging as our big new feature, focusing on improving the economy. 
For our second anniversary, Cosmetics will be introduced as a way to provide more challenges and collectibles. 
Players will be able to collect new borders, banners and titles, further customizing their experience. Here is a look at the new borders:  
 

 
Borders are the part of your profile that surround your character portrait. With the patch release, there will be two borders to choose from for each of the different elements/factions in the game. The first border is a simple but clean colour scheme, where the second level expands on the theme of the faction a bit more, like more vines for Nature or infestation for Twilight. 
Borders can be combined with Banners, here is an example: 
 

 
Banners, borders, and profile pictures can be freely combined to make unique combinations. There will also be new titles to unlock. An example of a title can be seen in the picture, above the name, in this case "Game Master". 
Your cosmetics will show up in the lobby, and when hovering over players in the chat list.   
 

 
Those new banners, borders, titles (and a few new profile pictures), are tied to new Achievements, which provide a variety of new challenges. Some will be rewarded simply by playing games with your favourite action, while others might ask you to complete the campaign using only cards from the Twilight Edition. 
We hope you are looking forward to a bunch of new challenges to explore, and new bling to show off! 
 
• Upcoming New Promo: Worldbreaker Gun

While our new cards Sanctuary and Raven Walker had already been announced in previous Community Updates, we had one more surprise in store in our stream: our next promo card and the first promo building: Worldbreaker Gun! 

In this year's feedback survey, people let us know loud and clear they would like to see buildings get the promo treatment. The newly buffed Worldbreaker Gun felt like the perfect candidate for being the very first promo building. 

You will be able to unlock this new promo by completing the upcoming achievement Urban Planner.

-- Please note: this achievement is not yet live! --
Urban Planner
Win the 2-player scenario The Sunbridge and the 1-player scenarios Mo and Ocean on expert difficulty, with all players in your team playing only building and spell cards
-- Please note: this achievement is not yet live! --
As with Mana Wing Promo, the promo will not drop from boosters, but will be tradeable. If you don't want to do the challenge yourself, you can buy the card on the market, or trade it with other players. 
 
• Advanced Filtering

We greatly expanded the search function in both the inventory and marketplace during the time of our first anniversary, which was probably overlooked by a lot of players in the new-patch-hype. Our developer Kubik wrote an in depth document about the way the new (and old) function worked, with handy shortcuts to find just the cards you need. 
But even the players who were aware of the new tools at their disposal, had a hard time remembering the search commands. Our UI designer Ult and Skylord of Honour Kapo worked together to provide a handy new ingame tooltip that should make searching for cards a lot easier for everyone. 
 

 
• Future Development Focus

We spend the last two years on improving and balancing many, many cards. We currently feel the balance of the game, while not perfect, is in the best place it has ever been. The campaign and rPvE are playable with every faction right now, and while PvE changes will continue, we intend a major pivot next patch cycle to map/game content with many of our balance developers and team members. 
This means we will put more focus on providing more map-based content, like our alternative Halloween map Spooky Encounters, the upcoming Nature rPvE faction, Defensive rPvE, tweaks to the difficulty levels of rPvE and new campaign maps. Basically, we want to focus on creating content that will lure back old players, and invite new ones in. 
This has proven challenging. While every player automatically has access to the map editor, map making is a long and patient process. We are very aware people are looking forward to new campaign maps, but their design is a huge undertaking, and due to the volunteer nature of the project, mapmakers don't always stick it out till the end. 
If you want to help out in the map department, please take a look at our open positions:
• Map Designer
• Map Developer
• Map Artist
We are also looking for an Audio Editor to help us with processing voice acting takes. Want to help out in another area? Check out our open positions.

 
• Tournaments / Events

Since Community Updates are posted on a monthly schedule, events might come and go in between them. Be sure to keep a close eye on the ingame event-tab and the forum calendar to not miss any events! 

• CLOSING SOON – Official Card Design Contest - UNTIL 01.01.2023 23:59 CET
A contest like this has often been suggested: create your own card! Entries will be judged by a jury of Designers and there are tiered prizes, including boosters and promos. Maybe your design will even make it into the game! Today is the last day to join: More information.

• Host your own tournament / event
Want to host a tournament or event yourself? Please reach out to our Event Organizer, Metagross! We can help you out with various topics and are glad to discuss potential ideas. We can also sponsor the prize pool for your event. If you have a cool idea for a PvE event, or want to host a PvP tournament, please don't hesitate to reach out to us, we will gladly assist you.

• Newsletter

While we do our best to make it easy to follow Skylords Reborn by providing monthly news through these Community Updates, we are limited to the Forum and our Social Media channels to reach you. You can now sign up to our newsletter, which we will use to give you a heads-up about a new patch release or Community Update. Don't worry, we hate spam as much as you do and won't use your data in any other way. 

 If you provided your e-mail during our summer survey to stay up to date, you are automatically subscribed. 
 
• In Conclusion

And that's it for this Community Update, thanks for reading! 
As is tradition, this community update comes with a scratch code. 
The code will reward you with a General-booster: HAPP-YNEW-YEAR-2023

The code is valid until February 1st, when we will bring you another Community Update.

Beside the contest - i don't want reward - i simply want small forest elders ingame 😜 
reward can be transfered to future contests 😉
 
Name: Forest Cubs
Tier & Orbs:  Nature
Type: Unit  (2 medium units)
Power: 50
Hit points and Size: 800 (2x400) M size
Attack value and Type: 300 type S
Active Abilities:
Forest Touch - for 20 power heals 300 life points to unit in 5m (20 s cooldown)
Passive
Swift & Stomp
Explanation of idea behind the card: I would love to see smaller elders ingame 😉 This concept is based on making them small alternative to hurricane by making them swift tramplers with small damage and some hp for tanking and map controll purposes.

I assume that making them swift can be problematic with their XL unit animation - so they may ottion to test it without Swift but with abbility to not slow down when going through enemy units... + maybe slowdown immunity against PvE spearman units.
 
It would be possible to make them in different colors? One more brown and one black? 😉
 

Grinder has joined the raster 🙂
See first Post.
Also you can vote for the next Card (now with WBG)

Are you speaking of the silence debuff those Lost Dragons apply? Sounds a bit to me like that.
If so, the most general way to deal with it, is the yellow Incredible Mo abbility.
As you are a bandit player you can also hinder the Dragons with CC spells as Amok or Frenetic or Plague.
And Disenchant may help

Wanted to make my own card just for fun 😄
 

I have made multiple cards and will update this post when I create more. I have not yet decided which ones I will be sending in for the event, so I will be collecting them here. 
The artwork seen on the cards is "stolen" from Magic the Gathering cards.


Serra will be using the Firedancer model. 

Gift of Immortality: Activate to crate a summoning zone around Serra. Own units within a 20m radius will be immune to death. Lasts for 10 seconds. Reusable every 40 seconds.
Gift of Insignificance: Activate to transform up to 10 enemy units within a 20m radius into pigs for 15 seconds. Affected units may neither move nor attack. After 5 seconds they will be retransformed if being attacked. After the effect wears off, targets are immune against Oink for a while. Reusable every 20 seconds.
Siege: Deals 100% more damage against structures. 
Swift: Moves at high speed.



Skyelf of Lightning will be using the Skyelf model.

Lightning strike: Every 1,6 seconds, unit casts a lance of lightning that deals 134 damage to enemies.
High Guard: Activate to bind to a friendly building. Cannot attack while bound.
Electric Flow: The affected building will become static and deal 100+8% to enemies attacking the building. x% is based on enemy total health.

Multishot: Unit may shoot at three targets at once.
Regeneration: Unit constantly regenerates 24 life points per second.
Swift: Moves at high speed.



Forest Mare will be based on the Lyrish Knight model.

Affects ground targets only. Lasts for 15 seconds. After the effect wears off, targets are immune against Root for a while. Reusable every 30 seconds.
Swift: Moves at high speed.
Stomp: Tramples small units.

JOIN THE CLUB, THE PvE CLUB!
 
What is it?
PvE League is running live team-based challenges which are open to all. Participants are assigned a team upon joining, we will ensure that there is a mix of skill levels in each team. Maps can either be campaign, community or rPvE maps with a set of objectives. 
 
Who can join
If you would like to meet new people and have some fun, then you've met all the requirements for PvE club. It's an informal gathering of like-minded people who enjoy playing PvE coming together to play some team games, we welcome people of all skill levels.
 
When is it?
Every Sunday 10:30am CET, it generally runs for a few hours so feel free to join the group at any time.
Where will it be?
We meet in Voice Chat Room 1 on the main Skylords Reborn Discord server at the scheduled time.
 
How do I register?
You can join on the day however it is preferred if you message Little_Ducky (DaDuck#5103) on Discord to let me know you are attending. 
 
 

If you needed just one more reason to join the contest: After all the lamentations about the high Evil Eye prize, the SR team decided to sponsor 5 into the random and 2 for the newcomer card pool.

 

I absolutly love the idea, but dont wanna lose everything I collected and played for the last 2 years.
Would be cool to implement this as an optional second character on the same account, just like it was possible in the old battleforge.
To not ruin the market, the "ironman" character just needs to have all trading options disabled.
With the new banners there would also be a possible way to differentiate the ironman accounts from normal ones.
Would something like that be possible? 

Fog of War is a tool used in PvP to reward scouting. Knowing what is coming to resposition your army, or seeing a build order to know if you should build anti air/stealth, etc. But since BattleForge can spawn an army in the blink of an eye, it would mostly add frustration.
The game is also not balanced around it, take for example firedancers: the moment you figure out where they are, your base is already under attack and probably lost. Or imagine a tier 1 situation, where you move out your unit/army, but go left, where you opponent goes right and heading straight for your base, and suddenly their whole army is in your base, while you were still scouting the map. 

The discussion for Fog of War in PvP comes up every so often, but it just wouldn't work as well for this game. 
As for PvE, with 3 difficulties, I dont think new players would need this, and if they really want to know a map's layout, they can always watch a replay 🙂

Any updates? Will it be part of or after the anniversary stream?
Can't wait 😬
