Thoughts on the new Runedragon?

Managed to get him on one roll. Upon first seeing him I thought he was pretty high tier but it also seems like he might die too quickly to get the polymerization off. Thoughts?

Too complicated to use in pvp.

Try to awaken azida, sexy slave and OoO fl counter.

Yeah I got pretty unlucky on this pack, and generally don’t spend enough to awaken any kind of mythic anytime soon lol. I like the idea behind Runedragon so hopefully I’ll find someway to make him useful

Lordsreign is an auto protect , he won’t live long enough for runedragon to polymerise. No idea why devs put 100s restriction .

Dont focus on the secret skill then, just use the Dragon as itself, a self Healer that has a Confident move and Blood Move, that’s pretty unique in it’s own, no other mon I know of has both a Confident move and a Blood move. That in itself is plenty unique.

The SS on this mon is similar to Dracorosas SS with the Flower Girl SEs. It’s very strong, but the TU restriction and serendipity of having the right combo of mons on the board is very awkward to try to pull of consistently, so just use it for its perks similar to Dracorosa.

A.S Hill ? xD (not as good as the dragon obv… it’s a legendary)

I definitely should have put “useable mon” lol

He’s cool design but he’s not usable with Sonic strike with that Low speed and yet healing on a non HG Mon per turn is awesome.But I don’t think he’s that good tbh.Novadrake , Azurien and that Swallow guy are the real deal to me

Yeah those were the guys I was after, been after novadrake since I started playing. 600 gems later and I have 4 copies of runedragon and an astrogolem for my trouble

To be fair I’ll be happy with getting any of the featured mons in this pack. Got Capybaragon on a Single Hatch, and will be able to hatch 2, possibly 3 packs by Thursday this week.

He is a good monster. People need to kill him with one shot otherwise he is very hard to kill. The health reganing passive is annoying. It’s relentless and he reaches 100% health fairly quickly. That passive is a great way to mitigate damage from monsters like
Flocco
Exploding auto protect
Static.
Also, he can Sonic strike with the ability to skip turns. This is very good.

My concern from the beginning is the requirements to Summon the mythic form. It’s tricky needing lordsreign it means you need to sacrifice a spot in your team for a 5 star monster you might not want in your team. Then that is combined with the possibility you might not pull off the summon and you are left with a monster that breaks your synergy.

Having said that I think it’s very well balanced…

His mythic form is OP and should be hard. It makes sense they put the 100 second restriction for the summon because people will be able to abuse it in the FL.

Also I would love to test this dragon with Lordsreign. With some creativity you might find it’s easier to summon the Mythic form than we think. .

OoO with Jackal switch into purifier and summon the Mythic form.

Also OoO with slugs switch into the dragon from the backline and sacrifice the FL Lordsreign.

I love this monster and would absolutely love having it on my roster. It would be very very fun figuring a reliable way to summon his mythic form. I think it can be pulled off easier than we might initially think.

Perhaps a OoO FL with Lordsreign and Jackalhotep in FL, Jackalhotep can then Switch Places with Runedragon in 16th and have him wait 100TU until the restriction is removed. Not very different from what you proposed, but can indeed do.

Stop giving ideas with OoO

Idk if u young players know frostrider. But he does excactly what u guys need.

He’s the only one that missing for my Rider/Raider collection. I’ve the other 3 @Moking

The right player will easily pull the fusion off, but I don’t know if the mythic version is good enough to warrant all the hassle tbh. It’s a cool idea though and one of my favourite ever designs.

Yes that will work as well, pretty much the same as I proposed. Many options to be honest…I just mentioned a few quick ones that I thought of after I started typing my reply lol. Imagine thinking about it for while!

I think it is if it can be pulled of easily. It’s a great mythic for the cost of a legend.

I agree it can be pulled off easily, but I still don’t think it warrants the effort. You’re sacrificing 2 slots in your team first of all and the mythic can be one shot easily with just 35 def. For the effort and sacrifice, I’d want to see it with something to help keep it alive. Rune Ex is cool, but it won’t stop it being killed in one move. Higher defence is needed, or change dreamy entrance to something more suited to the rest of the monster
