Alive Dragon Tournament 10/5/18

[AnnirasSweets]

Congratulations on repeating the achievement glenngenius! I keep telling people that common dragons raised to level 15 really works in tournaments but I have to give credit where it's due - Bastian0, a player who used to post in the tournament threads, always used high level commons to go through the battles. It gave me the inspiration to level up Forest, Fire, Water, Air and Magic and, by golly, if it didn't make tourneys easier. Dark is almost there at level 14 right now.

I can't wait to see your results on the Epic Dark. I've been holding back on leveling him up until I'm 100% sure s8 is going to leave him as a single element. The past burns from from Skeleking and Pyramid are still healing, so I'm being extra cautious this time, lol.

Well, that was a rough one and I will be taking a break from the Arena for the rest of the week. I'll be too busy healing dragons round the clock for the next several days but I wonder who's going to heal me of the headache this tourney caused, lol.

I hear you on the break just to heal dragons but I have to say wonderful job for first, never giving up as I see Skeletal Knight made you do a whole new tournament and second, for plowing through the rest of this tournament. Even I had problems past Skeletal Knight.
On another note, I worry about S8 neutering Dark Dragon too and, if they do, they will lose me as a player and a helper in the forums. It's no reason for them to do what they did to Pyramid, Skeleking and Skelequeen at all and if they want to keep a speck of integrity, they'll leave Dark alone.

I beat The Dark One and Alive with Cleric Lv. 15 BBB. So happy.

I found this tournament to be quite difficult, actually. I had a lot of losses and I have a huge lineup for the Healing Spa right now. Hopefully they're all done before I need to battle them for the Tales!

Congratulations too, Skyharbor! And thank you!

I hope other players will be inspired to raise their common dragons to high levels and use them more in the battles too - it is really worth it!

My Night, Virtue, and Dark dragons are still at level 10, and Magic and Light at level 15 (almost there!) I just need to plant and harvest more food!

[glenngenius]

yay!

Congratulations!!! I notice your results keep getting better and better!!! So happy for you!!! Great job!!!

UOTE=KevinW07;1543979]Wow, 32 losses! I haven't been playing tournaments for a while as you may have noticed as I had been away travelling on business, then on vacation, and lastly to visit and help with my sick father. However, now that I'm home, I played the last tournament and now this one, and have noticed that they have been a lot tougher for players like us! In the Grandcaster tournament, my win/loss record was 30/23! In this tournament, I'm at 17/9 so far and stuck on Black Knight L19 with five straight losses so far.

This is definitely not a game to play anymore for relaxation! Thanks so much DS for taking the fun away (especially when there are so many more challenges for us in our lives)!!![/QUOTE]

I agree. I haven't winning since before Grandcaster. I wanted to post my wins after my prize but, i can't. Anytime I get up to half way. I get stuck no gold, no money.
This is my wins so far.

Yes, Bastian0 also inspired me to level up my commons to 15(Fire,Air,Light) but now that I have all those SR & UR champions, diamonds, hybrid champions, etc, single color dragons is a fall back in case the UR & SR can't win.
I do use the single element Metal 15 a lot in BTs. My Metal10 was a wimp, even at L12 but one poster here had a 40 win vs 0 loss with his Metal 15 against high level champions so I spent the apples. No regrets on raising Metal to 15, no more 20 - 30 losses to L20 champions.
