Map 14 experiences

[nafai]

I liked Nemesis posts about the map 13 experiences a lot and as I started the map 14 recently I decided to share my experiences from it here.

14-1
It is not very hard to beat, I used my standart Oceanus deck.

14-2

This map is much more complicated. I beat it with spiky bit deck but I needed at least 10 tries to do it. You need Santabaus and Mystic in first 7 cards. Best strategy seems to be to put good hero vigor rune and wait until a lot of enemy creatures are in play and then put in play your creatures and wait for spikies to do their job.

Deck what I used:
Berseker lv.6, Full Alert 5, Spiky Bits 9

Twins Sacrifice
Panther Chief FA
Graboid FA
Recycle HB
For other cards it can be anything with FA and some good hp base


14-3 

I used the same deck as for precedent stage. There is a lot of magic and Spikies works very well.


14-4

At first sight I thought it will be easy for hero killer deck (Bowmaster has only 16k HP!) but after few tries I changed my mind.
Finally I succeeded when I increased the Chaos Witch HP to 39K. I needed to be lucky when Staboid went through the dodge.


14-5


Enemy deck is full of recycle and revive and all neanders do a lot of dammege. The weakness is lack of FA or dodge. I choosed the strategy with Oceanus, lot of FA and lot of healing - I skipped recyclers because I knew I will clone some. At the end the clones outnumbered the opponent and killed the hero. FA Oracles, FA Paladin,FA Graboid and FA Centaur Chief did an excellent job.

My deck:
Oceanus l2, protection7, entrap4, lightfoot9

2 Oracles FA
Paladin FA
Graboid FA
Twins Sac
Centaur Chief FA
Panther Chief FA
Naga FA
Ashbeast Thors rage
Pitdragon unmelded


14-6


I used almost the same strategy, only I added two recycle HB. I won because Oceanus cloned his Killer Queen and I had more healing. 


14-7


This one seems to be a real test without Paragon. Wight reduce my wall, Oceanus clones Lord Bones or Oinari which are useless and hero HP is abou 100k. To stop the recycle loop, I have to kill immunity 10 Dahlia and dispose recycle Pit dragon and Snow Harlot. When Harlot comes to play it is game over. I can immagine to win if Dahlia comes in very first cards - with timing 6 it is already difficult. Oceanus hp is going down really quickly, maybe predator can be a better choise.

I did with
Armaggedon, Battlecry 3, Bersekr 3, War hungry 5
3 disposals (Royal Dragon and 2 others)
Sac Pit Dragon
Sac Twins
BB Panther Chief
FA Panther Chief
FA Graboid
FA Paladin
Recycle HB

I needed to acivate rage, dispose recycle Harlot after just waited when I was under 30% hp and sorted hard artillery - Dahlia and recycle Pit dragon are primordial. Lot of hero hp needed too, I have started with 72k and finished with 3k.

14-8

Same strategy, essential is to dispose Kumiho when Arma rage is up. Taurus can be disposed too.

14-9

Same strategy again but this one took me lot of tries. Recycle Mythril is real pain. Recycle Paragon can be disposed and revived by Arma skill, when I succeeded I was lucky to dispose Mythril.

 
14-10

This one seems easy. Only recycle is Mystic and she can be disposed. But the creatures are strong - this dungeon with Odin remind 13-11. 
I used the same strategy as before, only I used more bullsey.
You need just disposed Mystic  and wait HP under 30 percent.

3 disposals
Sac Pit dragon and Twins
FA Paladin, BB Valkyrie and unmelded Michael
FA Panther Chief
Recycle HB 


14-11

This one is harder. There are three decent recycles - 2 dragonlords and cancer. You need to be lucky and have them all in first 5 cards as you need bullseye to kill them and then wait for war hungry-bersekr combo.

Pretty good so far nafai. I've used almost the same combination of Spiky Bits and Hero Killing decks. Only difference is for 14-5 , I used a deck of only 5 stabbers with Royal Guard. Almost beat 14-6 with the same approach too( 1000 hero HP left ), so I'll try that again.

[nafai]

Drone does not help a lot. I saw two people to make it with Wight but they had more than 70k hp and my best rune is hero vigor 3 (level 8)... Other option is Paragon of course.

[redeker]

14-4 is the poison ivy with like 30k HP, do you reckon stabthrough still works here? Did you use it here or does anyone else have some sort of strategy here?

[nafai]

14-4 is Bowmaster with 16,5k HP and stabthrough works, Poison Ivy is 14-5.

Got through 14-7 with the Agni bug. Didn't have the cards to deal with this otherwise.

After the recent update the game has a few bugs. One of the bugs that's currently being exploited is this one. You take a hero like Agni/Chaos Witch, with a deck of 5 cards, and wait for Hero skill to proc. When Hero skill goes off, it instakills the Enemy Hero. 

Getting it to work is tricky though. It might take a few attempts. 

There is also another bug that works. It's kicking my ass in the Arena. So any Hero with damaging talents like Toxic Mire, etc can instakill creatures whenever the talent activates. It happens randomly. Some guys did find a method to make it happen consistently though, switch to your deck, log out , resume game after an hour, go to your battle, it should work.

I'll post a snapshot of some dude instakilling my creatures in the Arena.

[Mandragora]

Just use spent another 100 energy and its not working for me. Maybe theres another requisite.

[selesnia]

Well if you guys know how to let it proc let me know lol. Stuck on map 10-11 like forever XD

[Malaikat]

I believe the bug is fixed on the last maintenance

[redeker]

Well, I just passed a few of these stages as well, so maybe something that worked for me might work for someone else.

14-6 can actually be done fairly easily with a decent stabthrough deck, you just need to be a bit lucky with the draw that you either take out the Queen Temptress early via sweeping blow hits or she comes out late in the game. Same thing with Snow Harlow, since her Ice coffin really puts a damper on your stab dmg.
What helped a lot in my case here was adding Angel Prime to the deck, he can take out some of the more annoying enemies and if you get lucky and he manages to hit the Hero, it saves the rest of the stabbers some time. It helps to plan ahead with your staboids to stand in front of Revenant, since chances are, you'll kill a few of his critters and then you dont want Revenant to start sending your guys back.

14-7
What worked for me was a combination of Disposal, Hydra's War Hungry and Berserk along with a Paragon.
Its a similar strat that a lot of people used to beat the stuff likes of 13-11 vs Odin, wait for him to get you low and then let loose with a bunch of critters that either have Bullseye or Sweeping Blow. The tricky part here is the timing, you're looking to have a hand with Paragon and either a Disposal at the ready for the Snow Harlot with Rec2, the rest can be any decent Bullseyes/Sweepers. Keep in mind that you're not going to clean sweep him, so it's usually not a bad idea to actually place your Paragon at the very left, because in all likelihood, the creatures you play are going to wipe the creatures in front of them and the other Snow Harlot might move to the opponents far left. By keeping Paragon in front of Ice harlot, it should give you enough time to clear out the rest of his critters while he cant recycle.

Good luck 8)

With Arma you can do it without Paragon. But you should level up your hero vigor rune. 60k HP needed at least for this stage.
