Fox Sports

Yay new stuff… oh…

What does the fox say?

“Your [troop] doesn’t deserve a spot in my [team], but it might make a good coaster for my drink!”

(I love obscure references where most people don’t know what the hell I’m talking about. lol)

Never thought I would say this but this weeks raids are fun. Even at level 150 the boss killer is one shotting him.

Halfgrim Half-Giant might be the strongest Godslayer ever, even better than Caprinicus. He is still just Legendary for me, but when he become Mythic, his damage to Zuul’Goth would be around 300 on first cast, even more when pairing with Hyndla Frostcrown!

Unfortunately, the dev didn’t let this week to be an easy Raid, due to Orc minions. They got very strong damaging spell and many summon potentials, which is even more powerful aided by new no-cap summoning rules.

Just in my screenshot, Drake Rider will summon Drake with similar stats to him on death. Summoner can heal the whole team and summon Level 20+ Bone Daemon, or Ancient Horror on death. Cyclops, Fal’Dras, and Ogryn are also very deadly.

I was able to go to 11.

Stop hiring the artist/art firm that did both Frost Archer and Arctic Fox. Please. You an convince me it was two separate artists, but you can’t convince me they weren’t the both spec art firm.

It doesn’t fit with the game’s art style and it’s not even “funny bad”. If you need cheap art, there are lots of people in this community that’d probably be ecstatic to do some art for you at that rate or lower. I’d be a lot slower to criticize a community-sourced atrocity than one titled “you get what you pay for”.

Fel’dras will definitely be a big threat this week and laughs at Hyndla since every extra turn translates into +4 damage for her. Cyclops is also going to be a big threat on the later levels and Ogyrn is just annoying (Level 105 but 2 of them? You mean Level 115 right?). At least Gar’nok didn’t pack his bags despite his love being in the raid.

If you look at the background color you can figure out the rarity.

I agree. Both works (Frost Archer, Artic Fox) display something like a middle-school student learning how to draw by copying a photo using trace paper.

They both standout due to the high quality of the majority of the other troops.

Hey, i take offense on that! Being bad at MsPaint is an art… This artist probably tried to be good at it and that’s the, vomit indulcing, result.

Finally an outstanding Godslayer! :sunglasses:

I’m afraid arctic fox wins the reward for the worst drawn troop, it’s nothing but awful.

Original Frost Archer was not easy on the eyes. At least this one has cute going for it.

I’d give that award to Frost Archer.

And i thought i was the only one that dislike his art. Poor fox.

Guyz/Gurlz!!! I got the joke now!
“Moon Moon” is not the fox, but the artist who drew it! :stuck_out_tongue:

We have a lot of art in the game, and our turn around is pretty intense. As such, we invest in our art and our art director does an amazing job liaising with our external contacts to create what you see in Gems of War.

2 bad pieces of art in a game of this size, with this much art, really isn’t too bad! We have had some issues with art houses in the past, but overall I believe that the quality of our art is consistently very high. I’ve passed on the feedback from the community to the art team, but please be aware that they do an amazing job and 2 out of over 500 aint bad!

Australian math at its finest. :rofl:
The fox is made only worse because most of us saw the photo it was “inspired” from. Usually drawing of a photo improves the art… Doesn’t make it worse.
Frost Archer… I’m 99% sure… Was not “inspired” from a photo. So it’s more forgiveable.
Troops abilities change… Their background changes… The art on the card around them even changes. But the troop art it’s self doesn’t change… Ever. So yeah 2 out of 500 can be a bit too much.

PS… There’s 573 troops currently in the game. It’s hard to keep track of though. Understandable.

Here’s a way to salvage it and exploit topical internet memes:
