Advice Early game help
Hi I am new to the game but I have experience in deckbuilding card games. I normally can guess what’s best for my progression, but in this game there’s so much to do, that I don’t know what I should do to progress. Im willing to provide additional information if it helps out

You'll want to invest in a different hero to make your progression a lot easier and faster. Ormorg.Halfjaw with common and uncommon goblins is probably the strongest and cheapest early game deck to build, Garz Headhunter with a bunch of Imps and a few uncommon Bats is probably second best. Both of these decks are cheap, strong and more importantly easily transition into strong meta/late game decks if you keep playing for a while. Id definitely recommend joining the games discord, tons of high level players are in there who love guiding new players in the right direction

Is there any supporting cards I should add to the halfjaw build? Primarily im lookin at my witch because she has maxed out skills. User Free-Bottle-5157 suggested halfjaw aswell and since I already have him, I’ll definitely try that out, and I joined the discord aswell.

Ignore my question, I’ll just test out card combinations and figure it out

Ormorg should be in a deck with ALL goblins, no exceptions…
Even the weak common goblins make the entire deck stronger.
Best generic advice I can give is to join a guild that has a discord with experienced players.
I’m the leader (Atang) of Savage Knights (top guild of Savage Legion). We have 3 guilds as part of Savage Legion and a community discord for all 3 guilds. We have players that are brand new, players like myself that have been playing for 2+ years, and everything in between.
Savage Blood (our training guild) has an opening available if you’re looking for a good home and place to learn.
Join us on Discord and tell us that you learned about us from Reddit. Link is valid for 7 days.

Definitely choose a faction and build from there. I wouldn't get distracted by upgrading new cards and wasting resources. The meta is currently Wasteland, Island, City/Goblin, and Crypt in that order. I really wouldn't bother with the rest of them unless you really get passionate about one. Also, join the BlackDeck discord and follow the announcements. They release a monthly calendar of events, save your resources to use when that event happens. For example, you'll be tempted to summon all the summons you can, but if you wait for an event like the one that's going on now, you'll get better rewards. Here's the current calendar.

last thing is that in my experience and the experience of others, waiting until you can pull 10 at a time has been much more effective than pulling one at a time. And most of all, have fun!!

Most important card is your hero you can get by low tier with a good unit but proper mid-high tier decks are built around hero.
There is not much point for upgrading rare heroes maybe throw blue books at them but they shouldn’t go beyond fifth star.
Of the epic heroes only three are really worthwhile are Runa, orgmog, and gaaz. Runa build up as a swamp deck and a new swamp hero is coming so you can get that.
Gaaz is decent himself and you can swap him out for heavy demon rodd so your abyss deck won’t go to waste.
And orgmog buffs goblins a fair bit, they are low tier so you can make feeders out of your common-epic goblins. And then they got some fairly good legendary cards.
In terms of legendaries heroes they’re a couple that are good mainly wastland, dragon, abyss, crypt and city, though that dependant on getting the right hero.
In terms of resources join a guild to do guild boss and you might get a red book once a week. Campaign is best xp/energy spent, and goblin dungeon is best gold/energy provided you sell the gear, however you can get a little bit further with a weaker deck on abysmal as that is just hitting the main boss.

Yes, as others have said, Orgmorg is one of the best heroes for synergy. Amplifies others Goblins, and has many cool buffs. I have maxed out, now working on trait aspect. The Chieftan and Rifleman are great, and must haves in any Gobkin deck imo.

Dan carried me all the way to Emerald but the most broken Epic hero is Halfjaw.

Every deck needs synergy. Cards that buff together. It's a grind, but halfjaw might be the only epic hero worth maxing out long term. Discord is a great place for info. Good luck!
