Look Maa! I can beat them!!
The New Generation of Battle
I am slowly getting the hang of the Chaos Legion cards. There are 91 cards in total, so that is a lot to handle and remember! The critical thing is to find the use of these cards at the right time. But slowly I am getting the hang of it.
First, stating sort of the obvious: Get Dr. Blight .... really there is no choice if you want to competative at Diamond and Champion League. You need to get it and you need to max it (otherwise you need to rent it maxed). Otherwise you will lose a lot of games, period. Price of this thing is $110 right now. There will be no more prints. I see 12,894 cards in circulation, it will only go down as people will combine more and more cards. You can see, I have already combined some. I started with 88 in the airdrop, and now I have 33 total. That's the story guys. This card will be worth much more than $100/BCX, and may I repeat, there will NEVER me any more of them (as far as I know!).
Ok, the reason I started with Blight, because it is making a difference in the battle. It is making the difference between winning and losing. Let me give you a few examples.
"Modern" Battles
Low Mana Death!
Meaning, earlier it was not possible to pull a win like this. With just Beta-Untamed-Dice cards, it is not possible to pull a win like this.

The new CL Death Summoner Thaddius Brood! -1 Magic and -1 Health. In Low Mana Battles like above, using Camila is a perfectly good option to have access to dragon splinter. Life-Dragon option is rather good in no heal with extra shields from Truthspeaker. But watch what happens to their health before and after!
It is very difficult to pull away from that drastic health drop, and I could have still used rust! I didn't feel like it, because I was mostly using magic and shield doesn't matter that much. This kind of win was not possible to pull before!
Earth is 'suddenly' magically strong!
Magic doesn't have to be water any more! Relatively lacklustre Earth got a major facelift with Obsidian!

Yeah! The typical heavy magic with Kraken up-front! Well enter Forcefield and Amplify....and not to mention our friend Blight at the back. Now that +5 Magic will do 1 damage to Slipspawn. If/When it is taken out, magic reflect now has amplify :)
So bottomline, there is whole new world out there! Chaos is here!
Its Tough out there!
It does not mean it is easy. I have never played a season so carefully! With 5 days to go, I am almost to C-3! But important thing is, I have played a lot fewer games. Just to play carefully and efficiently.
Obviously, its about half losses. Some are very close and heartbreaking, People normally do not like to feature losses. I do not mind. Here is a close game that I lost. Low Mana with Noxious Fume is tough, but I thought I had it... NOT!

I will keep at it and see what happens in the next 5 days!
Wow man, you got nice leveled up cards.
respect.
Yes, I have a max CL deck. Thank you!
Great illustration of the power of Blight! I am waiting until the general sale to pick up my CL cards (though I guess maybe Blight shouldn't really count as a CL card since it isn't in packs), but I'm looking forward to learning how to use them properly once I do!
Just put it at the back and watch it unfold

You are so right about Blight. I have a level 3 now and it is really helpful. I also hope to slowly level up my chaos legion cards. All the best for Champion 1
You should be able to max it soon enough. Do you play Diamond? Otherwise, max won't be needed.
Ah yes, you are right. I end up in diamond each season but I think I am ok with level 3 for that.
Good luck this season!
I think now is a great time to add to your card collections. After the release of the land, their cost will be many times higher.
Dr. blight is a bastard card with 5 abilities. It is a very handy card in the little league ruleset. I mostly lose the battle when my opponent uses it. Best of luck with your CL deck. Much love and respect from Pakistan.
it is handy on most leagues
Doctor Blight is so powerful i hate the venom cards :D and the stun too hahah
yes, likewise.
I just found and followed you. You were mentioned by @tarazkp , Im a bronze player and always looking for strategies, especially since chaos started. I can't seem to win anymore. Im going to buy 25 packs in general sale and have a few alpha cards. Looking to get more skilled. Not opposed to investing but want to learn chaos with the free cards given by the game. If I make it to silver I'll change it up.
You already know the game seems like. So all you got to do is pay attention to your losses. Without buying or renting new cards you won't be able to advance. Rental is cheap now so you can test things out before buying. Silver level cards are fairly inexpensive to rent.
I discovered too.. Funny enough I feel they have the strongest basic cards right now.
The game is getting too hard for newcomers like me
I don't have 91 cards, but I'm finding it taking much longer to organise the troops.
Losing has suddenly become more painful :)
I'm still scraping into C3 though, thanks to a maxed Blight

More packs next week, and then see how the market is looking to max more CL cards.
There is two distincts camps now:
Says, cards sale will be over in a week or less
Says, cards sale will take all of 2022!
Both have fairly good arguments, and I can't refute either logic :)
And yes, I still don't have a hang of the cards, and yes Blight is clearly the most versatile card in the game right now, and seriously undervalued!
