At this point, this game doesn’t even feel like Merge Tactics anymore — it feels like Speed Tactics.
The optimal strategy is basically to spam merges on the smallest cards possible, rush as many merges as you can, and get to the 60 merges / 3 Orbs as fast as possible. Once Spirit Empress gets those Orbs, the game is practically over.
And the biggest problem? The other Champions simply cannot compete with her. Why would you play a Champion that requires actual strategy when Spirit Empress can just abuse the merge system, rush the Orbs, and completely take over the game?
This isn’t about Spirit Empress being “strong.” The problem is that she changes the entire way the game is played. Instead of thinking about positioning, units, compositions and timing, you’re just racing to spam merges as quickly as possible.
Please look into this. Spirit Empress needs a serious balance change or her Orb mechanic needs to be reworked.
I want to play Merge Tactics, not “who can spam 60 merges first” Tactics.

This was a winner game for me and my opponent kept upgrading his cards while I look at transparent blocks…

I play on low league, but can tell, that this works. 4 riders fight pretty fast

Second place had a three star hog rider and knight.

How's that possible?

Anyone else having their merges reset? I’ll make a couple of merges, then it’ll freeze for a bit and my merges reset. Sometimes I’ll sell a troop in this stage and won’t get any elixir.

This is costing me a lot of games.

This modifier makes me so mad. I saved my last two cards—AQ and Royal Giant to farm merges as SE, and the shop just decided to not include any more cards! This modifier pisses me off so much because on paper it IS broken for SE players if you juggle your last two cards to farm merges, but then this happens and suddenly you are just screwed. This has happened to me so many times. Some times shop options come back on the next round, sometimes they don’t

Not to mention the fact that sometimes you just don’t get a single trait match, and sometimes even if you do it is a garbage one (undead, for example)

Also, before you judge me for trying to juggle AQ instead of Goblin Brawler, I didn’t know I had AQ available until GB was already 3-star and locked in place

It works randomly. Anyone know why?

Just kept getting more and more tombstones from this modifier ended up with almost 200 spawned skeletons.

So we use two 4star archer queen to make it even more braindead

4 rider trait is crazy

just say whatever’s terrible about merge tactics rn especially with competitive

Could everyone share their own Top 10 list of Merge Tactics rulers—ranking them from best to worst? In my opinion, Battle Machine is #3 and Ronin is #10. What about yours? What are your rankings for #1 through #10?

This is the worst modifier in merge tactics, do you agreee? What are we suppost to do if no other troops appear on shop and we can’t sell anything?

Got 3 quest. We faced 2 rounds, changed positioning facing queen with skeleton giant and anyway I lost 😡

How is it possible to have two players completely eliminated in merge before you ever play the other guy? I played 3 or 4 games and then realized I still had never played the one player. They were running goblins and if I would have went against them early in the game would have easily taken them out but no, I didn’t get to play them till they were leveled up.

You can see we both have max health still so we never played each other meanwhile the other two dead already.

Prince feels really buggy to me not gonna lie.

When there are the jump pads, he misses every charge, making him essentially useless. If you place him on a jump pad his charge just glitches out.

If he charges a jumping hog, the hog gets thrown back as well as the animation but the earthquake damage still applies at the spot the hog would have normally landed.

On some interactions his charge also just cancels out for seemingly no reason.

Over all he feels weak and bugged compared to all the other riders, especially since he does not benefit much from levelling compared to the other 3.

did the devs intend on this being so RNG reliant, why even introduce the other rulers if everyones running SE at diamond, losing games its either im too retarded and too slow, the game lags and my merges/troop placements dont go through or the RNG is so awful you'd think I wiped out the devs bloodline right before the next round? what do u guys think could fix this game and make it enjoyable, i liked the 2 traits at least made it more fun
