Gauntlet iirc is a fight against 7 AI opponents in a row, get a special prize and rank up if you beat all of them without losing a single match (you get some rewards in between but not as much as playing in Ranked). I think it only unlocks after you've beaten all the tutorials. I go there usually to check if my decks' gimmicks work even in the best of cases.
Yeah, if you're new and just starting out, it's almost better to draft the rarer cards when you see them, but later on when you understand the game better, it pays off to just draft the cards better suited for your deck.
Think an OT would just sink but yeah I'm going to play some more today. The indie game thread might be a good place for some discussion on it.

I'll play it soon, I loved Ys I & II
Happy birthday WD.Happy Birthday MurderDemons!
just found out about this game from a thread on gaming. Eternal CCG, its in open beta now apparently
Its basically Hearthstone with Magic The Gathering rules.
"But Rhaknar doesnt Hearthstone play like Magic?"
If you know your CCGs, then you know the awnser to that question is no. Differences:
- You cant attack enemy minions directly with your minions, you issue an attack to the player, and then they can block, or not.
- there are different types (colors) of mana, so cards will be specific to a type, and your decks can have multiple types or just one.
- if you attack with a minion, its "tapped" and cant block, so you actually need to think about your defenses, and also your attacks.
- minions regenerate health at the end of the turn
- you can cast during the other player's turn, with instant casts so you can do stuff like Attack, he blocks, you cast a buff on your minion so yours doesnt die, but he casts a instant fireball to kill it before your buff lands.
Thats just the main differences I saw from the 25 minutes I played just now. The art style is straight out of Hearthstone (hence me saying its HS with MTG rules), it looks feature complete, has great presentation with lots of snazzy effects like HS.
Incredible first impression, if you like CCGs, especially Magic, or even HS but wish HS was a bit more complex, go download this now.
Oh and it seems to have more single player modes. Besides a rudimentry campagin / tutorial, there is a gauntlet which I dont know what it is since its locked, and also a Draft mode against AI.
There is also a Draft against players, and in both Drafts, you actually keep the cards you draft, unlike HS.

Trying to finish dragon age inq and silver case
I'm hoping to finish Azure Dreams. It's devolved into bit of a grind but I think I'm close.
I enjoyed it a lot.
Something tells me it's not supposed to look like that.
Downloading still. Gonna install that asap.
Also got the Playstation button prompts mod. For some weird reason it's not possible to activate subtitles though. The menu is blacked out
Eh, turns out in English you can't enable full subtitles. Bummer. Weird, I got that intense sense of recollection and complete unfamiliarity, like I've played the game but completely forgot about it.
How did you like DA:I?
Oh right, that was one I was going to try after Xanadu, so now I have to decide between that and Ys Origin. You agree with SteamGAF that it was great?
Looked at some screenshort of Azure Dreams and it certainly looked interesting.
