10 nora clairvoyances. Run them. Bliss reduces cooldowns. You have lots of magic for acolyte anyway. Sprite = favor = Everything being cheaper. Special mentions to 5 nora clairvoyances, and combined efforts that pay for themselves entirely, meaning that with 0ap on everyone you get dmg for free. Personally, memento, really helps to make 70hp guys much more tanky than 10 more hp would, but your call on that one. Unfortunately, bullseye only affects half of the adaptive guys.
Hm not sold, I was running it but actually dropped it in favour of petrichor. I'll give it a second go though. Bullseye is crazy good with oracles once they get rolling, can be hitting 50s. May swap it out though. Don't run sprite because seems very mediocre, the new dream fae gives everything favour anyways. I'll have a look at momento and bliss though, thanks
I agree Fae Dreamer is a better source of Favor than Sprite. You can usually have multiple champions in play with Shielded, Council: Spells, Favor, and Spellswallower. Additionally, Spellswallower may help some champions gain a few +DMG buffs (not likely many, though, in 6 turns). Sprite can do some nice things but is a little too high in cost for how squishy it is.
Ooooh dreamstate gives favor. Yeh definitely a better choice then. As much as I love sprite, it sucks right now. IMO you definitely need a clairvoyance, if you don't like 5 nora for dmg, then at least use it as a "Bane Shift I really need to carni this guy but not revealed" I would say clairvoyance > memento, if you were thinking of taking out something for 1 of the 2.
The odd thing about KF Adaptive decks is that you have to slowly build up to get the damage you need to kill things. Overall, it is easier to just play IS or UD.
Yeah but its incredibly easy to stall out the game a bit and end up with 33 dmg 9 speed fae oracles (shout out to eriluuns favour, man its good). Starts out weak but has real snowball potential. Think I need some more tanks to stall the game though, not sure what to run. May use a few treefolk.
Yeh, I once transed with no fonts and only a doomie and an ancestor out, and then won. At no point did I get a font back.
I played against one, and if you can get Dreamstate out early or start snowballing range units it gets pretty tough to handle.
Grimlic's bane is definitely worth running now that is 35 nora for 15 spot magic damage. Although, the secondary clause about it damaging champions with the same name does not work. As an aside, you may want to consider dropping things like fiorn and menalaus. If you run an adaptive deck, you need nora for spells. Thus, it is often in your best interest to simply run as much cheap efficient meat as you can to get your adaptive engine rolling.
@zorbot What would you consider cheap efficient meat. Everthing in KF feels expensive, or inefficient outside of a theme. I am not saying there are no efficient runes, simply that they are not usually all that cheap. Most of the cheap units in KF like Falconer got nerfed over the past patches, heck even faries got nerfed and they have horrible nora/cost ratios.
I would have said Bane Shift like woodchuck and corgi knight. But KF isn't really a faction renowned for its unit's raw power, there's no way we can match up to something like SL units in a 1v1.
You dudes nailed it. There aren't a whole lot of "meta" efficient runes in KF. The corgis are pretty sturdy for their cost and can at least contest a font for a few turns before they die. Diplomat is pretty sweet now and has the ability to stall pretty well. Blademaster is 56 nora in his cheapest build and he's pretty decent (in kf standards) for his cost. I run illusionist now because of the ability of IoL to stall my opponent. I could post my adaptive bg but its not very good either. The meta is just not conducive to adaptive/kf right now. At least from what I have seen.
Been playing with it a bit more and made tthese changes: Took out 1x Fiorn 1x Investogator 1x Artisan 1x Blinding flash 1x Bullseye (kinda miss it though) 1x Rage of the Circle 1x Balancing act Added in 1x Clairvoyance 1x Aurora Inspector 1x Illusionist (the illusions he summons can be a target of dreamstate, meaning you can effectively lock your opponent out of using spells for a few rounds - this doesn't affect illusion of lies though) 1x Woodchuck 1x Elven Blademaster 1x Bliss 1x Grimlics Band Probably going to drop the enforcer for a catharsis bloom, need some consistent healing.
To specify: when I say it locks your opponent out of spells, I just mean any spells he casts will grant you like 20n
