Click the above image to watch the battle in which Brighton Bloom, the dragon summoner defeats the Prince and his team easily. 

As you can see, beta edition which is too over-powerful and was always a headache to me is powerless against the new cards containing untamed, dice, and chaos legion. 

So, what are you waiting for?

### A new player?

I would advise you to level up common chaos legion cards and then think about raising the bar of the summoner cards too. The new summoner cards are now relatively cheaper and when the packs sell out, you may have to wait a year or two for the next edition. So, make your mind and buy those summoners and level up the monsters. That is if you like to play and won't mind investing a few monies. 

I can guarantee that you will rise from **zero to hero**. 

### Dr.Blight

So, how come people are selling this card right now. It amazes me that they think the card will become cheaper in the long run and are rushing to make some quick money. I think they are just sellers and not players because a true player will never do so and remember that this card is limited. So, it will never be available again and unless you own a lot of maxed versions, it would be foolish to sell it now. Also, if you do not buy one now, it will be a regretful decision later on. 


The promo card is really very powerful and because it is a neutral card, it can be used in every single battle except the no-neutral rule set. 

I am not saying that betas are now worthless. It will always have value but when the new format comes about beta will have a lesser chance against the new cards unlike untamed which was weaker and still not very strong except the zaku. 

### Common rewards that are strong

Come to strong cards, did you know that the common reward cards like the screeching vulture and the sandworm are very strong cards and then there is the cube of course which is the lifesaver in many battles for me. I hope they have something like the cube in the modern format also. 

### Monstermarket

Use monstermarket.io for purchasing cards and if there is any doubt, the people behind it are always ready to help you out. You also get good cashback for using the market. 

### Tips for new players

* take your time to choose the splinter
* make sure you include magic, range, sneak and snipe if possible
* do not just rely on one card because your opponent could use sneak to attack from the back
* be very alert and never play while lying down(mobile)
* always save the decs you earn and invest back in cards - own them one by one
* try to evaluate your season's performance and try to improve
