I am attempting to make changes to the number of cards sold in the shop, and the settings aren't taking. I'm starting a new quest every time. I tried it with 250 C/U/R, then 100 C/U/R. No luck. All I see are basic lands.

Apparently, I need to make the threshold for Mythic larger based on that game state. Nicely done at any rate. :D

And while i mentionned the insane damage potential of Heroes' Bane, notice the card has another potential regarding the lives, in the screenshot i had a lifelink on the creature :)

I'm going to move this to the Ultimate Quest Mode Thread, since this is one of the things I made that thread for.

Here are 15 decks i made from all the cards earned in various quests, all of them are of "main world" medium AI level and most of them are of "main world" hard AI level (as in decks can beat them)
They're not very complex decks but are lots of fun as the AI play them well enough too :)

You can check the decklists by clicking here

addition (25 october 2014)
Added a new batch of 13 decks
10 made of a long Ravnica quest (one deck for each Ravnica guilds)
3 made of a long Zendikar quest

added the decklist on the link already given

EDIT : just noticed i forgot to remove Nissa Revane from the Alliance for Zendikar deck, that planeswalker card was a remnant from when i had more elves in that decks, but now that i got rid of most of them to the benefit of better ally creatures, that planeswalker is near useless.
I recommend to delete
and replace

As i was trying to buy some boosters but was out of credits, i decided to go to Shandalar in order to get some good priced cards.

Well, i didn't expected the most expensive one coming that fast :
Image

I guess i will not have much problem with not enough credits anymore (well when i'll have enough wins to get over the 1000 credit limit) :D

edit :
Trying to build a boros legion deck with basically only boros-storyline troops, i finally got my first planeswalker achievement
Image

Though i didn't expected the complete devastation (i didn't thought it would remove all the lands) , the last part of that round was rather funny, as both the AI and me had a lot of difficulty to get more lands and finally play our final piece.
Lucky i kept 2 Boros Charm , they helped wipe the last lives of the AI with few mana :)

edit 2
Image

Nice, i thought it was going to go very bad as i was forced to mulligan that much due to lack of land (nasty bad luck streak), finally it went rather well :)

My Ravnica quest started in disaster, up to 0 - 5
Then i got some good boros cards and decided to build a boros legion-themed deck, then slowly improve it with booster and reward.
And it's currently quite nice, as i'm now at 31 - 5 , getting the 25 win streak achievement, i wonder if i'll be able to reach the 50 one

Image

Here's the current state of the deck i've built :
March of the Legion | Open
1 Arrows of Justice|GTC
1 Blaze Commando|DGM
1 Blessing of the Nephilim|DIS
4 Boros Charm|GTC
2 Boros Cluestone|DGM
2 Boros Guildgate|GTC
1 Boros Reckoner|GTC
1 Boros Signet|RAV
1 Firemane Angel|RAV
1 Firemane Avenger|GTC
1 Flame-Kin Zealot|RAV
1 Gideon, Champion of Justice+|GTC
2 Gleam of Battle|DGM
1 Holy Mantle|GTC
1 Martial Glory|GTC
3 Mountain|RTR|1
4 Mountain|RTR|2
4 Mountain|RTR|3
1 Mugging|GTC
2 Ordruun Veteran|GTC
6 Plains|RTR|1
4 Plains|RTR|2
1 Punish the Enemy|DGM
1 Sacred Foundry|GTC
4 Skyknight Legionnaire|RAV
2 Smite|GTC
1 Sunhome Enforcer|RAV
2 Sunhome Guildmage|GTC
1 Tajic, Blade of the Legion|DGM
1 Viashino Firstblade|DGM
2 Wojek Halberdiers|GTC


Those Boros Charm are incredibly powerful for such a low mana cost. I hope to find another Holy Mantle , as it's quite powerful too but with only 1 it's more about luck to get it in my hand
Though by now i have many good cards of other colors, i'm tempted to try to build other decks for a change, probably going to break my streak :)

I might as well be blind because I can't freaking find where is the achievement page. Can anyone point me to where can I see my acheivements?

Edit: Nvm, upon installing .28, I found it. Never realized that section is not available in .26 because I do earn achievements in .26.

Does the Mana Screwed achievement literally count lands played or just number of lands on the battlefield when the game ends? If the second, you could easily cheat the achievement with help of Zuran Orb...

I wonder how the achievements react to Karn's ultimate.
