making a SACRIFICE

After playing around with my first Draco palettes (deck build here) 
I have turned my attention onto the key word SACRIFICE and building around that. 

At first I didn't like the keyword, as it seemed there are better actions where you can get the same effects without also erasing one of your own cards. 

However, when combined with other objects and actions this keyword all of a sudden gets really strong. 

Examples;
Bathed in Achrom means you can erase cards on an opponents canvas instead for a turn (and play 1 sacrifice card for free!) 

Dark Toli means your attached character doesn't get erased when sacrificed.

Sacrificial Ovoo allows your sacrifice ability to be done twice (for example scorch usually is steal 2 will now be steal 4!) 

And Stolen Dragon Egg when sacrificed immediately steals 3 and then whatever the sacrifice effect does!

So much devastation to be done here. 
In both of the decks below I have used Ray as the legendry, he offers essential gain in an Achrom deck as shard management is crucial. Many other great legandary options though, perhaps Tenebris to stick with the drake and steal theme.

Also, I have only included cards that I have available (not ones that are used in my other decks). Aim is to build the best without deconstructing or borrowing from my other palettes!! 

Here is my first attempt:


This first build on top all the sacrifice cards focuses on drakes and getting a synergy with achrom haven.

I had some good games with this build but I was struggling getting the drake synergues and Achrom haven & Mortius drake were just being used as trade fodder.

So I changed the palette up and made this second build:


I added Roc instead as a creature I was more happy to sacrifice. Play, get its resolve and then sacrifice. 

Another change is Vast Voltarus which is also in my dragon build, linked at the top of the article. It is probably one of the best rares in Draco and is essential gain for an achrom deck. If played first round you can easily get a chroma win turn 2 or 3 with it. Meditation can be used to gain 3 more cards, either to play or use for more gain with Vast Voltarus. 

Achrom Haven is now monastery underside, mainly still trade fodder but that give good prevent when against other achrom decks. 

what is your oppinion on these palettes? what sacrifice decks have you built?

Norso Sneak Peek

This is my first article in a while. Mostly my content has been on video .  Largely I am not recording due to loosing my voice working as a scare acter (boo!)  Although, it's good to be back on blogspot, thank you for reading!  We are in Norso spoiler season as we approach the release date for Norso Chapter 2 : The Monsters Of Norso !  We seem to be above ground in this chapter, obviously with monsters. The above image was shared to everyone on the discord, containing a potentially achrom mutated minotaur and a vast sinister looking labyrinth. What else awaits for us in the Norso Planum..  The content creators in the achroma discord have each been given their own sneak peeks, I will link the other content creators who plan to share sneak peeks here for you:  Draco Temple , Antinomy93 , Achroma Lord .  Without further ado, here is my sneak peek:  This is Vitki Village! Presumably a location. This looks like a beautiful and tranquil place to live an...

Dexter updated

Image
 After yesterdays blog ,with my new Dexter palette build, I realised some errors that I needed to amend.  Mainly being that I didn't notice that the characters in DDR are all heroic. So, I had mistakenly played doubles.  I took many of the second copies of heroic cards out and switched for similar characters. This allows more cards on my canvas as well as adding even more drain and steal into play.  I kept two copies of Thisp as its action can be very helpful. I also added two Monastery nests because they are great gain locations.  To read all the information on how this palette works and how to get Dexter out, you can read here . Those have stayed the same.  However, I realised getting Dexter out later on in game is much more benficial than earlier for a big sudden gain.  Here is the new deck list:

Community, Comiccon & Social Media

Image
The main purpose of today's article is to praise Achroma for its fantastic community.  The company itself does so much to interact and strengthen their community but then the players themselves take it a whole step further.  I have always felt accepted and welcomed by the Achroma players on discord . But, living so far away from where most of the action happens (Poole and more northern areas) I hadn't had the chance to meet people outside of the internet. That changed when I was invited to Mcm Comiccon London by the Achroma Team.  I was very blessed to be invited into the Achroma Guild. An inner circle of sorts (which will keep growing). I had my tickets and travel paid for, I was gifted a Deluxe Box, got interviewed by Charles and spent a great day at Comiccon and with the community.  The achroma Facebook & Instagram uploaded this photo and wrote these lovely words:  A vlog and unboxing video, as well as all other content achroma related can be found on my ...
