Beginners guide "What to craft?"

This topic has been automatically created through Faeria’s The Hub.
This content can be found here.


First there are no commons in here; I do not recommend crafting them. Also rares usually come as you grind towards a full collection. However dont think twice if you want to craft them, having strong cards makes the game more fun to play.

I tried to make this list in ascending order; generally speaking, the higher in the list the more times the card is used and/or the better the card is.


So lets get down to the list.

These cards are more situational. Some are used in just a specific deck (for instance Yellow Fliers or GY Sacrifice) and other deck run just one copy of tech cards.

As this game is constantly changing this list might not be as relevant in time. This is my current opinion on what to craft these days.

Do you agree or disagree with specific cards? Let me know in the comments!

I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you!

Some newbie questions:

What does “Tech” mean?
Syland Horsemaster for Green and Red midrange decks?
What do think of Unlikely Hero for Green?
Left out Elderwood Embrace?
Why are Snowstorm Lancers usually left out of Blue Jump?
Any Ranged creature worth crafting?

Tech cards are used less often, usually just one copy. People change decks if they are facing the same deck very often to make sure they have an advantage over them. Also I wanted to make a difference between cards which are in most decks and cards which are used in just a few.

All cards you mention are great, but common! I left them out on purpose. You could craft them but I assume most people have them already (or at least 1-2 copies).

Unlikely Hero does see little play in Y-rush and Green decks however, so little that I left it out.

Windstorm Archer is still used a lot if you want to play ranged. Also some people try Flamesilk Faerie, but till now it’s never really been part of the Meta.
