"I cannot get the Lobotomizers for my first Rol/Hope deck!"
I think this is among the no.1 new players problems. I hear this every day.
Actually, farming lobos nowdays is easier than anytime before, provided you know what you're doing. If you have 2, you can start a Rol/Hope with slightly reduced winning percentages vs. some gods, but if you have a littlie more patience, you can easily get 3 with this method.
I started a new account to see how hard it is to get those lobos. It took me less than 2 hrs. Here it is, step by step.
1, Get this deck:
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5ul 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5up 5up 5up 5up 5up 5us 5us 8pt
See other tutorials for how to get this basic deck fast. At the beginning, choose darkness and work your way up from the starter deck.
2, Do the 500 score quest. Choose a Lobo. There you go, only one to go!
3, Click AI3 and fight none other than the mono aether deck. If you see anything other than the aether mark, then quit to the menu and retry immediately.
4, Win. It is pretty easy, I never lost a single match:
- Devourers: skyrocket your quanta for dragons and drain lifes. Be careful tho, if you drain the AIs quanta below 6 and it has more offense than you, then it will never play a dimshield for you to steal!
- Dragons: the damage in your deck. Don't expect much mileage off your first few ones though; If they don't die immediately, you're lucky. The 3-4 rd will usually stick.
- Steal: For dimshields only! Never steal a lobo or mindgate unless your hand is chock full of steals (at least 4). This will not only enable your dragons to hit, but also slows down the enemy offense.
- Drain live: To finish the job (max damage per drain life is 16) or to kill dragons if the AI PUs them and you are not too much ahead.
5, Spin all. Hold your breath and cross your fingers.
Every once in a while, when you get low on money, play other AI3s as well. Especially look out for the pharaoh elder (it has time mark), since it is easy to beat and you have great chance to win pharaohs (big money)
Sell every card you win. Yes, even the rares. This is not a "how to win rares guide", but a superfast way to rolhope land. You'll have plenty of chances later to win your rares back.
That's it. I finished the session of mine with 175 games (bulk of it "lost"), a pretty negative score and 2 lobos.
+1 get 9k coins, up those photons and enjoy.
Good luck!

PS: another good place to farm lobos is the bronze arena. The method is the same (anything but aether mark->quit), but you lose 20 instead of 10 each time. however, MA is pretty frequent there.
note: I humbly request this to be placed in the tutorials subforum.
