Deck and Hand

2010-08-28T07:00:31Z

Atahualpa: /* Deck */

= Deck =
A deck is set of [[Cards]] used in battle. Each player chooses their deck for battle before it begins. The decks are shuffled at the beginning of the battle.

=== Deck Limits ===
Each deck must have at least 40 cards in constructed format or 25 cards in limited format (see [[Ranking]] for format descriptions).
A deck can contain any card, but no more that three copies of each, except for [[:Category:Basic|Basic Buildings]], which can have up to 5 copies in deck. Some scripted games, like Highlander, may limit you to one or two copies of each card.

=== Hand ===
At start of battle each player draws seven cards from his deck to create their initial hand. At the start of every [[Round]] players draw one more card if they have less than seven cards in hand.

Basically, players draw cards from top of their decks with one exception, [[Autodraw]]. Autodraw may draw cards from elsewhere in the deck, instead.

=== Mulligan ===
At the start of a battle, before you do any actions, you may Mulligan your hand:
* all cards from your hand are shuffled into your deck;
* you draw a new hand with one less card than you had before (6 instead of 7, 5 instead of 6, etc.)

This is useful if you don't like your initial hand or want to start with specific card(s) in hand.

=== Cycle ===
Once every round a player may Cycle one card from his hand. Doing so moves that card to bottom the of the deck.

This is useful when you have seven or more cards in hand and want to draw a new card at start of the next round.

= Casting =
Players can play any card from his hand if he meet some requirements (see [[Cards]] page for cards properties description) :
* have enough [[Flux]]* to pay Flux Cost;
* have at least as much Domain Level* as the card; to get Domain level you need to play cards that give domain first;
* other requirements:
** Figure (Building or Creature) can be played only in unoccupied spaces;
** most Creatures must be played near Base;
** Spells and Enchantments (and also some Buildings or Creatures) have their target requirements in card description.
''*''You can see your flux amount and Domain Level in [[Player_Status]].

=== Targets ===
By default you can target only spaces and [[Entity|Entities]] on spaces that you can see (by Creatures, Buildings or something else).
If card's text says '''Any''' space this mean that you don't need to see target space (for example [[Teleport]] can move Creature to unrevealed spaces).

==== Creatures spawn points ====
By default Creatures can only be played adjacent to your Base on a land space if there's nothing in its text box that specifies otherwise (for example [[Treeherd]] says "Spawn in forest"):
* Creatures with [[Swims]] or [[Aloft]] may spawn on land or ocean
* Creatures that specify a spawn location can be placed away from your Base (for example [[Treeherd]] or [[Lightning Elemental]]). You can place creature in any revealed space that fits into valid spawn space described in card. You can't place creature in enemy controlled territory even if that space is valid target otherwise.

=== Result of casting ===
If you play card and nothing prevents it (for example [[Null Stone]] or [[Dew Mogi]]) card is played.
* You lose flux amount equal to Flux Cost of card.
* You lose the played card from hand.
* Turn goes to your opponent.
*Other results depends on card type:
** Creature: Dimmed Creature is placed on map;
** Building: If placed in your area of control the Building is placed on map dimmed , otherwise a [[Construction Site]] of that building is placed on map;
** Enchantment: Dimmed enchantment is attached to Entity, placed on Space or placed on World (depends on Enchantment type);
** Spell: Spell effect is resolved.

If something prevents you from playing the card, you will see message in the battle log and can do another action.

If your card was canceled:
* You lose flux amount equal to Flux Cost of card.
* You lose played card from hand.
However it will still be your turn.

Sylvan

2010-08-09T01:56:42Z

Atahualpa:

[[Image:Ent.jpg|300px|left]]In ancient times, the Elf-queen Seirowyn planted the first seeds that would become the Mother Forest Kithil’aa, from which the Sylvan peoples hail. The Sylvans live in harmony with nature; their cities are akin to great gardens and groves of venerable trees, their lives are spent cultivating and culling as needed by the primal balance of life. Overall, the forest of Kithil’aa is kept at peace by this devoted service, as no ill-willed intruder has ever survived a night among her trees.

[[Image:Barkskin_Dragon.jpg|200px|right]]Most strongly represented by the swift and stealthy Elves but comprising a host of woodland creatures, spirits and strange beings, it could be said that a Sylvan army acts as a spearhead of the natural world. Their warriors are quick, keen and sure, striking at distance or closing with foes at great speed; and their healers and mystics draw upon the inexhaustible power of Kithil’aa to bolster their own ranks, overwhelming and confounding their foes. They move in stealth and appear without warning; any tree could be a soldier, any innocent songbird a spy, and any whistling breeze an arrow through the heart.

The Sylvan starter deck army is [[Roots_have_Arisen|Roots Have Arisen]].

== Strategy ==
Stated often as the "beginner" domain, Sylvan is a domain that's main focus is rush: spawning weenies and overwhelming the opponent by sheer numbers. However, there are other strategies that can be utilized to take advantage of the Elves and their Treant friends.

Many "Tree" decks are based of the Treant's ability to spawn from forests, allowing creatures to pop out of nowhere since Treant's become [[Seedling]]s upon death and spawn in Forest.

Another clever strategy to take advantage of is Sylvan's powerful range: [[Alearwyn Barque]] can become a mobile turret provided their is enough water, and [[The Coldstream Guard]]s and [[Tenderfoot Archer]]s are a good response to cards that are dangerous if attacked close range like [[Leprous Shambles]]. [[Spaf's Greatbow]] is especially good proof of this, but keep in mind that you must see the enemies before you can rain arrows on them.

Sylvan also has some good "flying" creatures: [[Thistle Falcon]] makes an excellent earlier game harasser, [[Goose Tamer]] is a ground creature that "breaks the rules" and bypasses terrain easily, and [[Barkskin Dragon]] and [[Pixie Queen]] are at the top with powerhouse and stopping creatures dead in their tracks respectively. Keep in mind that Pixie Queen cannot enter water though and Goose Tamer still takes damage if it ends its turn in water.

[[Ascent]] is a good way to get rid of opponent's creatures and [[Entangle]] can serve a similar purpose as long as your opponent doesn't run Ocean or Desert-based decks. [[Mis-Scribed Circle]] is a "Swiss Knife" that has many uses: protecting your creatures, damaging opponent's and aggressively exploring the map. [[Teleport]] is the best of the four against creatures, dealing an easy 2 damage by sending a creature to water or relocating a it to a different area.

Other useful cards are [[Loyal Wilds]], a way to disrupt control, [[Restore Nature's Balance]], a useful disenchant, [[Beacon of Celador]], a building that can shift Sylvan units around the board, [[Ivory Spire]], a Building that has a huge vision, [[Treetop Dominion]], a powerful source of domain, and [[Bamboo Watch Tower]], providing 2 vision for a cheap 3 flux.

Overall, Sylvan is very speed oriented and a good player should take advantage of this. Bamboo Watch Tower can be used to grab your other flux well quickly, while you rush weenies and buildings toward the center well to try and protect it from your opponent. Once you've gotten enough domain, bring the Big Guns out in form of Spaf's Greatbow, Pixie Queen, Loyal Wilds, and other cards to make a formidable late-game offensive.

== Counters ==
Domain isn't really a problem to Sylvan as they have many weenies and an easy way of getting domain through forest, which works well with their Treants. Plan on using cards that can cancel out enchants like [[Disenchant]] and cards that change the terrain like [[Cartographic Error]]. Creature wise, try to bring out stronger creatures that can withstand their range and quick ones that can stop weenies from randomly showing up in spots you weren't thinking about. Maintaining defensive range isn't a bad choice either: Sylvan has some good access to flying creatures.
