Revision as of 13:41, 1 November 2020
In Skylords Reborn every new player starts with 2 ready-made collection decks and the uneditable deck designed to play the Tutorial. Additionally, players get the option to freely choose 2 out of 16 decks, that are only usable in Player vs Player (PvP). This selection can be changed once per week.
PvE
Starter card indicating icons
As the 2 starter decks that are meant for Player vs Environment (PvE), consist of 40 owned cards, this means those can technically also be used in PvP. Given that these decks are neither charged nor upgraded, the free PvP decks serve this purpose better. Next to the 2 actual starter decks, players also receive 10 additional cards for further customization, which makes in total 50 cards. PvE starter cards vary in editions but are all of common rarity. In the Forge Inventory, all permanently owned starter cards are marked with a bell/pin icon in their top left corner, and the base card cannot be sold or traded. Additional charges can be traded and applied as usual though.
The starter cards are split amongst factions as follows:
This card distribution means that a new player will be unable to effectively produce a pure deck, and will need to settle for splash decks instead. The current starter decks are displayed further below.
A third deck every player permanently owns is named "Tutorial" and meant to be used to play the explanatory PvE Scenario 
Introduction. This deck can also be used to play other maps, but cannot be changed at all, this deck also contains the card 
Tremor, the player does not own to use in other decks. All other cards of this deck are also contained in the other 2 starting decks.
- Deck 1: FireShadow (
)
This deck features cards of Fire and Shadow, meaning it is a Bandits deck.
- Deck 2: FrostNature ( )
This deck features cards of Frost and Nature, meaning it is a Stonekin deck.
- Extra Cards
Players are given 5 T1 cards from the Nature and Shadow faction, to provide the option to settle for a different start of the game.
- Tutorial Deck ( )
This deck does not contain any cards that require 4 monuments (T4) nor does it reach a deck's card limit of 20 contained cards.
The starter cards are generally sufficient to get the player familiar with the system and run them through the campaign on standard difficulty, however more advanced cards may be desirable if tackling higher difficulties.
- List of included Cards
All of the 50 provided and permanently owned starter cards, alphabetically organized, are as follows:
PvP
To directly access the free PvP Starter Deck Selection use the most right "Sword" Icon in the Forge header menu
As of Patch #400013 players in Skylords reborn have the option to choose 2 out of 16 prebuild decks. This can be done by either clicking on the "Sword" Icon in the Forge Header Menu or using the button on the deck overview window.
Select the temporary cards for deck building via the Inventory's drop down menu
These PvP decks are fully upgraded and fully charged and thus deck level 120. Every week a player gets to pick again, but the choice cannot be changed during that week. These decks were crafted in a joint effort by well-experienced PvP players and are considered strong in the current meta. The free cards gained from these decks can only be used to build PvP decks though. Hence, even if modified, these Starter Decks are exclusively usable in PvP matches.
The currently available decks are shown below, but they can be adjusted at any time by the player using other rented or owned collection cards[1].
- Currently available Decks
All deck names are composited of the typical affinity prefixes (Tainted / Gifted / Blessed / Infused) indicating the decks T2 orb and a chosen noun (Darkness / Flora / Ice / Flame) related to the T1 faction afterwards. The deck name remains changeable to disguise the contained cards to experienced opponents.
- Tainted Darkness
- Gifted Darkness
- Blessed Darkness
- Infused Darkness
- Tainted Flora
- Gifted Flora
- Blessed Flora
- Infused Flora
- Tainted Ice
- Gifted Ice
- Blessed Ice
- Infused Ice
- Tainted Flame
- Gifted Flame
- Blessed Flame
- Infused Flame
Patch History
- Players can now choose 2 out of 16 decks per week. These decks are fully charged and upgraded (Deck Level 120) and can be customized with own cards, but cannot be used in Non-PvP Gamemodes.
- With the change on how card charges work, the "Tutorial" deck gained in strength due to upgrade 0 cards now all having their base charges doubled.
