Chaos Legion Fire Upgrades: TARSA level 5; Conqueror JACEK and Monsters at Silver Max level

Ahoy, in this video I will be making some upgrades to my cards from the Chaos Legion core deck. In previous videos with pack openings when I got Tarsa I mentioned how I now have enough copies to make her level 5. I also got enough Conqueror Jacek to get him to level 2 which will max him out for Silver League.

I will be explaining why I'm upgrading some of the cards and also explaining why I'm currently not upgrading some of the other cards.

Starting off with the Common cards with Radiated Scorcher I'm not levelling it up. At the next level it gets an extra speed, but I kinda prefer using it in reverse speed rulesets currently so for now I'll just keep it at this level.

Lava Spider is sitting nicely at level 4 where it has gained that extra ranged attack. The next level it will get an extra health, which can be nice for survivabilty but I don't really need it right now so no level up here.

I currently have Radiated Brute at level 4 where it gets an extra Melee attack compared to level 3. For now I'm keeping it at level 4 because at level 5 it gets an extra speed and I'd rather keep this as a Reach card for reverse speed ruleset for now. Later on when I'm getting the cards up to a higher level for Gold league I will definitely level this further up though so that it gets the Enrage ability. I should maybe get another Gold Foil so I can make the Gold Foil into level 4 for those Gold Foil tournaments and brawls.

Scavo Chemist I'm upgrading the Gold Foil to level 4 to get an extra speed, helping it dodge attacks to survive and use its Cleanse. At level 5 it gets an extra health, which is also nice for survivability. But if I play it with Tarsa then it already gains a health too for surviving an extra turn of Poison, so it's not that important right now.

Antoid Platoon is also Gold Foil and was already at level 4. Looking pretty nice with the extra Melee attack it gains at that level. It does lose 1 Armor there which it gains back at level 5 but I'm currently happy with it at level 4 until I upgrade it for Gold League levels.

On to the Rares now. Here I'll have much way more upgrades happening. Scavo Firebolt gets an extra Ranged attack at level 4. It might be quite useful in lower mana battles and in the Little League ruleset. So getting that extra attack can be really useful. Making the upgrade from level straight to level 4.

Now one card that I have definitely been holding off on levelling for waaaay too long is the Tenyii Striker. At level 4 it gets the Dodge ability that allows him to dodge Melee and Ranged attacks. When playing multiple Sneak monsters he can be a good backline protection for the other Sneak monsters while also having Sneak. Of course it heavily relies on RNG for him to actually evade some attacks which can be annoying, but it's great to have this ability on him so that he has that chance to evade attacks. Glad to have him levelled up now.

Djinn Apprentice up next. Magic isn't really that great with Fire Summoners right now, but you know with new rulesets of only Magic Attackers sometimes there really aren't many options. So it seems great to get this card up to level 4 where he gets an extra Magic attack at the cost of one health though compared to level 3.

Molten Ash Golem is the one Rare card that I'm not levelling up. At level 4 it gets an extra speed, but I prefer using this one in reverse speed ruleset right now so the extra speed isn't good. That's why I'm choosing to keep it at level 3 where it did already get an extra Ranged attack.

TARSA up next! Perhaps I should've started the video with levelling her, but I kinda wanted to go in order of rarity. So here we have arrived at Tarsa, I'm selecting all the cards and then deselecting a few until I have the right amount selected to get Tarsa to level 5.

Now for one of the most important cards to level up, the FORGOTTEN ONE!! This card at level 3 can be such a beeaaassst with the Retaliate ability. I have really been holding off on upgrading him for way too long. Sometimes I lose an opponent because of their Forgotten One having Retaliate and I'm like damn I gotta level him up!! Now is finally the time!! Here is an image of him at level 3 with the Retaliate ability:

Tusk the Wide is up next. He can be a great tank when expecting a lot of Magic attackers because of his Void ability. At level 3 he becomes a bit more important as he gains an extra Melee attack and that will help him deal just a bit more damage. At level 4 for Gold League he gets the Inspire ability to give +1 Melee Attack to all Melee attackers in the team. So maybe it would be good to level him up further now that my Tarsa is level 5, but for the video I'm maxing him for Silver currently.

Djinn Inferni now, just like the Djinn Apprentice it might be good to have this card levelled for rulesets without Melee attackers or with only Magic attackers allowed. This card has even more utility though as it has Giant Killer which makes it deal double damage to Monsters costing 10+ Mana. At level 3 he goes from 3 Magic Attack to 4 Magic Attack. And if he hits a Monster with 10+ Mana that goes from 6 damage to 8 damage. So definitely a worthy upgrade!

That's it for the Epic cards.

Now I'm upgrading Ifrit Rising too. Not really an amazing Legendary and I'm not a huge fan of the Recharge ability. But it can serve its purpose for sure. Especially on a Magic attacker as long as it doesn't get blocked by Void Armor or the Void ability. Just like the Djinn's, it can be nice to have him upgraded for games with only Magic or perhaps games where Monsters lose all abilities. At level 2 his Magic Attack went from 2 to 3. With his Recharge ability this is a bigger difference. Recharge takes a turn to charge up and then the next turn it deals triple damage. So that triple damage just went from 6 to 9 damage with this level up.

No upgrades for Scorch Fiend, I'm just keeping it at level 1 for now as I don't see much use upgrading it until it could be Diamond level with Demoralize.

Grum Flameblade is already at level 2 for a loooong time so he's already been at max for Silver League.

CONQUEROR JACEK upgrade time!!! Getting this Legendary Summoner to level 2 let's goooooo!!! I'm not a huge fan of the Scattershot ability on him, because of the heavy RNG with that and most of the time Scattershot RNG is really terrible for me but sooo great for my opponents. Which doesn't really make me like it much. But he also provides all Monsters with +2 Speed and the Piercing ability to let them hit through armour. Those are some great stats! Especially upgrading him for those reasons to use him with Silver league level Monsters.
I do think Scattershot with him would be a lot of fun to use when the games has a Blast ruleset to it for some damage everywhere. Perhaps he's also great in games against Lily, but with the way Scattershot rng goes for me it might not work in my favour xD

That wraps it up for these upgrades.

Thanks for watching! (I hope you did, because I'm talking much more in the video than the text that I wrote here)
