Capn Franky Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Thanks mate - I understand a bit more clearly now. I'll amend it accordingly. It has nothing to do with me having an issue with being corrected. I am a journalist by trade, I am used to my work being edited and critiqued. With that in mind though, multiplayer can be defined as "a computer game designed for or involving several players", and I believe that AI are players, so it's still a multiplayer achievement. As Black Barney was nice enough to point out, this has more to do with the community's contextual understanding of the word "multiplayer" (usually that means Xbox LIVE), and little to do with my usage. Either way, I edited the post and I hope it clears up any future confusion. Thanks for the help, too. This is incredibly wrong, multiplayer is only used when it's another human vs another human, if not then by your logic Gears of war, FIFA, Battleefield, COD, Forza etc etc when played against the A.I would be classed as multiplayer also, even GTA. Counter-Strike allows for bots to be played against, this is single player as a single player is playing, if another player joins it then becomes multiplayer as multiple people are playing, keyword PEOPLE. You seem the type that will reply and try to correct me even though it's not worth your time as I'm a games designer by trade, therefore, write this kind of thing in documents day in day out...

No, I provided my logical point and understanding, and then left it at that, as any civil adult would do. I'm not going to argue semantics, no offense. I appreciate your contribution to the guide.

Gigatoreador Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Re: Beast Within / Master of the Wild Hunt As the Goblin and the Soldier Deck consist of many, many tokens and creatures/artifacts that get + 1/1 for each creature, those are (imo) easier/faster.

MooMooChicken Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 1/10 for me, but I've played magic competitively for almost 9 years now. 4/10 for players with little experience with the game. There are too many loading screens and it is very tilting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeternox Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I personally got the following achievements in one match and vs the very 1st encounter deck Avatar of Slaughter Beast Within Master of the Wild Hunt Savor the Moment Flawless Mythic-Total Luck because I unlocked the Mythic Rare my 1st card in Garruks green deck Time of Heroes But the Basic Strategy is the Computer will just keep throwing birds infront of your big green monsters til there out of cards and I just kept building my army up til I decked him even at one point I think the AI gave up I had 30-40 critters on the board due to tokens and other misc creatures. But it can be done in the 1st Encounter deck if you want to get the achievements quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitchv79 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 For anyone having trouble getting the Savor The Moment achievement (which I found to be tricky at first) there is a method you can use that I mentioned in an older thread that involves the Chancellor of the Spires. Obviously you should be using the Dream Puppets deck for this achievement, and if you have most of the cards unlocked for this deck then you can probably do this achievement without even trying (or accomplished it long ago). For me, the biggest problem with milling my opponent was fending off their creatures and staying alive long enough to run them out of cards and then win when they have to draw from an empty library... If you are having the same problem with getting overrun too quickly, use the Dream Puppets deck and play against Talrand (the first campaign opponent). Try to get the Chancellor of the Spires in your opening hand. When you have it in your opening hand, your opponent loses the top 7 cards of his library before his first turn even starts. Next, wait for Talrand to use his Rite of Replication on you. When his Rite of Replication is in his graveyard and you have enough mana to cast the Chancellor, bring it out. When it enters the battlefield you get to play an instant or sorcery from any graveyard without paying its casting cost, so choose the Rite of Replication and make another copy of your Chancellor. When that copy comes out you get to go through that process again, so choose the Rite of Replication again and replicate your Chancellor again. You can do this over and over as many times as you wish (and it is a legitimate loophole according to the MTG community), but when I stumbled across it the game only let me have 35 of the copies on the board in the end, which is still more than enough to defend yourself long enough to mill Talrand without even casting any milling cards! This tactic allowed me to easily get the achievement, but coincidently I milled my next 5 opponents (including Bolas) without even trying to. Obviously this loophole was not intended, and when I mentioned it on the Xbox forums, the MTG Community Director immediately took it down. I know its a dirty tactic, but its completely legit as far as the card rules go... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its a dirty tactic, but its completely legit as far as the card rules go... While this is a great tactic to almost guarantee the achievement, I also wanted to add that Bolas in both campaigns uses a lot of milling spells and while using the Dream Puppets deck you can easily run him dry. So not only will you get the Savor the Moment achievement, you will beat one of the game's tougher opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, you posted a request and couldn't even be bothered to use the search function or even look through this forum? Hell, the entire forum for this game is only 4 pages long. That's three mouse clicks and you'd have viewed the entire set of posts. So because you're such a lazy fuck I'm going to tell you that yes, there is a text guide for the challenges.

Lavindathar Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Really late to the party, but its a bit daft how long it took to change the guide, and how much he debated it. Or did a mod do it? Multiplayer is defined as requiring Xbox gold/being online. As the achievements in question can be earnt offline via silver, they are not multiplayer achievements. To the guy on the front page, no, MtG players do not refer to it.as discarding. You may discard cards, but the technique of whittling down a deck is called milling. And, love the ita more luck than skill comment. Just lol. I'll play the guide writer, and even when im unlucky I'll be quietly confident I win. Sure you need luck, but its definately a skill based game. like poker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
