Liked: My first T1 push on a campaign, seems I was right to wait this long before trying! Free chains farmed for over 8 months and bingo! I was trying to be a cheapo, and made it without any raiders...

Also liked LB, totally worth the try, great card that will replace a couple R4 that still made it into my Cons deck before (like Victor Draith).

Disliked: mid-event changes for raiders stats... Well, not like it matters anyway for me, since those Snarlies were transformed into hot dogs in H8.

Useless x10 raider, except if you need 1 or 2 to 1-cube at H7. H8+ is definitely a playground for R6 raiders only.

Not so good R6 Frenzy card at H8+, making Adv Ops almost useless.

Crappy luck at getting anything besides Toruli weaps in the alternate weapon rubies bridge.

<p style="text-align:left;">Furious that the T1 prize weapon was possible via that alternate weapon bridge.

<p style="text-align:left;">Fighting the boredom. Campaigns ends after 2 hours of play, when we reach H7. After that, looping and looping again...

<p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;text-align:left;">Other: At the beginning, I was planning on going quiet for T2. At the first morning, I started at around rank 800 and made my way until I reach about rank 90. At this time, I decided to give T1 a shot.

<p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;text-align:left;">Strategy was quite simple: Infini-looping H6 like a hurricane until early day 6, and see where it can lead me. Lots of GM / BC farming and got some success at netting LB. At that time, I was at rank 80 and seen I had chances at T1ing (40 chains sleeping for too long in my inventory). I then burnt 20 chains on H7 early day 6 and coasted in the 30-40 range for the entire day. I felt to about rank 50 late day 6 and decided to take some more lead with 10 more chains (I don't like being too close to a cut off, whaterver the tier I'm aiming for).

<p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;text-align:left;">Success rate at netting LB (all at H6) was average/good: got 21 of them (about 4 per day, and a last one day 6). Some people were saying I was super duper lucky... Well, I wasn't very unlucky, but just got my average 5% success rate, I got much mostly because I looped H6 like there is no tomorrow (lost count, but multiple hundreds of times for sure)

<p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;text-align:left;">Campaigns are a chore to be done. Well, checked T1 on campaign once, now won't probably ever T1 this type of event again, mostly due to the boredom (I know what tiresome means, like in raid events, but the brainless activity required for campaign is above imagination, almost felt asleep in front of my phone while playing... got a couple of dangerous eyes blinks)

<p style="margin-bottom:0px!important;text-align:left;">Now, the real stuff is here. Prepare youselves for a rockin' 4 days win at TvT fellow members!
