Our Tips for Winning
-
Understanding Your Hero's Rhythm
The Cursed Pirate is effective quickly, while the Artificer gets stronger over time. If you're playing the Artificer, adopt a defensive strategy early in the game to prepare for your power spike. Conversely, with the Pirate, apply pressure from the first few turns.
-
Optimize your dice re-rolls
Dice are at the heart of the game, but managing them is strategic. Don't re-roll randomly: identify your hero's key combinations and focus on them to maximize your effectiveness.
-
Play your cards at the decisive moment
Cards allow you to change the course of the game: cancel an attack, improve a power, or surprise your opponent. Save them for critical moments to create a decisive advantage.
