Gods Unchained - Viking Raids

▶️ Watch on 3Speak


Hello Gods Unchained Fans,

After boosting my Zombie deck last week, this week I have decided to create my first Viking deck. After seeing how powerful and fun the Olympians are to play with, I wanted to check out what the Vikings could do. This deck is a work in progress and I am still improving it.

Probably the best Viking card is the Sleigh Master Valka, who has the great Overkill ability, but she is quite expensive. Therefore, I have built a deck so far without her, although I would like to have her for sure.

Instead, I have opted to includ Revered Seer who gives a great buff to all cards, but keeping Revered Seer alive long enough to use more than once is the difficulty.

Most likely you have used some viking cards and they are very Aggro and therefore I have tried to make the deck as Aggro as possible. Get as many monsters out as possible and buff them up for the win. Revered Seer is great for buffing the board and Tamed Mammoth is a good one to try and buff up to deliver the killer punch.

Some things I haven't added for the Vikings are spells to destroy problematic enemies with shield, plus relic removal is not so easy with only one option available.

The most expensive cards that I have bought so far are Leviathan Hunter and Valka's Captain. Although, I did buy them at shadow level. The deck is really missing Sleigh Master Valka though I think.

I am still tinkering with this deck and have one of my first battles. This is with my first variation of the deck battling in Auric Gold, but then things went quickly downhill. After some tweaks, I am building the deck back up and have made some improvements.

I had expected the Vikings to be stronger than they are, but they don't seem to have as much power as some of the other tribes.


Viking Raids - Today's Battle

This week's battle I want to show you how far I have got with my Viking deck. This deck is not yet able to compete at Auric Gold yet, but I would like to add mix it up and try and improve it.

1 Mana

I start and play Defiant Farmer to give a nice -3 to his god when he dies.

2 Mana

Next up, I play a blitz attack to remove the front line.

3 Mana

I then buff my defiant farmer to remove the frontline creature. The god mana of my opponent is down to 22.

4 Mana

We exchange Valknir Outrider.

5 Mana

I bring out the Tamed Mammoth. He gets nicely buffed when you receive damage. My opponent brings out the Ramschackle Hatchet and destroys him, but not without doing his god a world of pain and the health score drops to 16.

5.5 Mana

I bring out the Bloodguard and inflict some god damage. My opponent brings out a strong frontline creature.

6 Mana

I bring out another Tamed Mammoth before letting the Bloodguard lose. He dies but buffs Tamed Mammoth at the same time. My opponent attacks and destroys Tamed Mammoth leaving just my 1 mana vikings left.

6.5 Mana

I then buff those 1 mana vikings ... twice! They attack my opponent's god and reduce is health to just 4... He managed to clear the board, leaving me in a vulnerable position with just 4 health to win!

7 Mana

I use my godpower leaving just 2 health to go. I bring out the relic but it isn't useable until the next turn! The writing is anyway on the wall for my opponent unless he has some health from somewhere. He manages to clear the board but with my godpower and relic, he is vulnerable.

7.5 Mana

I use my Tavern Brawlers to finish his strong monster before finishing the job with my relic attack.

Summary

The Vikings are very aggro with lots of fun combos to play, they do have some vulnerabilities though, especially with those playing spells or being out-aggro-ed with a stronger Olympian deck for example.

Other than my Viking War deck, you can see my main playing with the Zombie Midrange deck has dropped to just 50,8% which is not a great win ratio. I need to make some improvements again there.

Weekend Ranked Update

My weekend ranking was better than last week after I got 10 wins from 18. Although I was 1 win short of getting the MJ Rare pack. I did make it back to Auric Gold, but after switching to the new Viking deck, have fallen back down to Twilight Shadow. I want to get back to Auric Gold before the weekend.

My Collection and Earnings

Since my last update, I have now reached level 147(+10) and have 18(+12) shadow cards and 310(+24) meteorite cards. My collection value is growing and is worth 1116 GODS tokens and value in fiat of ($145.65).

How has your week in Gods Unchained been?

Thanks for reading/watching.

Nicely done! It's important to have a few decent decks to keep the game fresh. Vikings offer a fun, aggressive play style.

Thanks, it keeps things fresh and it is fun working out the different combos and finding new cards. The deck has caught a couple of players off guard too.

Hello, I like "Revered Seer" it is very good to boost your team.
I remember that whenever I played "Thunder Caller", it would get removed very quickly.👍👍👍

When I first played the game, a Viking deck with Tamed Mammoth was one of my first deck archetypes. Tamed Mammoth alone is a great card that can win you the game when used at the right time.

It really is a good ace up the sleeve to have. I am thinking to add to my main war deck.
