So my deck hit 7k power a few weeks ago and now I can't figure out the Gauntlet. Almost every deck has two Thalassa now and making it past even the third battle is dang near impossible. I know I need more 3* heroes to help out but sometimes all my creatures get demolished before I even lose my two main heroes. I'm hesitant to level up any other creature as it is since it just gets harder the more creatures I level and my first opponent already starts at 6200! Anyone else having more luck once you strengthened up you main deck?

Yes the gauntlet has become a serious issue for veteran players.
I have hit 6500ish power today (I still have a 3* hero), and I can't pass the 4th stage.
Today, the 1st stage had 6100 power. I don't know how they expect people to beat this thing.
That being said, there better be at least a 5* card at the end of this gauntlet.
The gauntlet should start out easy and get more difficult the further you get, not hit you with a 6100 power deck on the 1st stage.
Maybe start at 3800 power and every stage it should go up by 300 or so, so the last stage has about 8000 power. At least you would get further as your deck gets better.
As it is now, the better your deck, the worse you do.

The opponents in gauntlet seem to be generated acording to the players power, or level, or both. How the game tracks this things beats me. Perhaps they just use your battles as reference to load ur opponents. I used to reach lv7 quite often, and even got to 9 once with some luck on the way. Since i`ve turned lv50 things became much worse and now i`m lucky to get to lv4.

Awhile back I compared under "Description" what happened when I leveled up a creature from under level 5 to over level 5. It increased the strength I was up against by ~5-8 power for upgrading that card, at that time. So even if you manage to get pretty far into the gauntlet and then upgraded some cards to keep going, the next opponent you uncover would be set on that new higher power rating (and you'd be screwed even more for the upcoming attempts). I'm just at a loss for how to come up with a strategy for beating this after you reach 6K plus power.

U can allways dont reset, and go lv by lv as u get more cards. I actually thought about doing it just to finish it once and get the gems and final chest loot. But eventually i ended up just reseting everyday because of mall. I need new heroes more than i need finishing that thing.

But eventually i ended up just reseting everyday because of mall. I need new heroes more than i need finishing that thing. This was what I was thinking but also including new heroes as well. I'm working on building up some cards to make a push when I finish my Dragonrider (42/75) as well as Devil hunter and all the other 3* heroes from the Trials. Stashing 4* essence cards to upgrade a bunch of 4* creatures when the time comes. IGG needs to rework the Gauntlet badly, since this is an all or nothing approach and will be impossible to repeat. Once you do this once I'd be surprised if the first hero you go up against doesn't just go ahead and start with 7k power.

when u start the game, and all gauntlet levels are 2k or so, i think its a pretty good aproach, i haven`t done it, but if u can beat 7 lvs or more with only 1 hero and 5 or 6 cards, then if u dont reset i`m beting the power remains the same and u can finish it once pretty easily.
i have not verified this however, and i`m not sure the gauntlet actually remains the same until u refresh it, i`m just assuming it will, almost worth to set an account and give it a go.

The question is though, If you didn't do that at the start, what do you do now? Today I couldn't even beat the second champion, turns out 4 Eye of Jonara, one Gorgon and 3 Naga Mistresses make for a solid lockdown deck. I'm just getting depressed with the Gauntlet but I need those Hero shards!

Other than multiple copies of heroes and creatures, theres no other way to do it.
I`ve tried a theory that actually works to some extent, but you still need several cards with the necessary skills to make it work, and those skills are so rare that its pretty much impossible to have enough to make it to the finish.
What i`ve done with moderate success is this, use a hero with undying first, the other skills and talents of that hero dont have to be leveled, it works as long as it has the undying ability.
Then use a deck with as much disposals/instakill as u can get and a couple of recycle as well, go to battle and try to dispose as many cards as possible and at the very end use your recycle cards to get as much disposals back as u can.
After that go into battle again with ur main deck and u can win it easilly without losses or to much hp drained.
Repeat again and again while possible.
But u can see the problem, not only u need copies of heroes with undying so u can replace those that die, u also need a lot of disposal and reycle cards, which are very hard to get.
With only 2 heroes with undying, 3 disposal and 3 recycle, i`ve made it as far as lv7, its not that bad, considering that i probably wouldnt get past 3 or 4 using any other method, but still, to actually complete the gauntlet would require much more cards with those skills than i have or am willing to spend the money to get.
Other than this all u can do is grind ur way and hope for some luck.

I use dahlia, great mystic, 2x hanuman, 2x balthazar, thalassa, oracle, phantom liege and spirit siren most of the time. Works very well for me.

this week, every day, i got a devil hunter with 6,2k power as an opponent. Every single day. It kills most of my creatures and i can't get past 3rd stage.. when i'm unlucky, even the 2nd and 3rd opponents are devil hunters.. i don't know why but it seems like 90% of decks i face there are faen based.. when i had less power i reached stage 7 one time, and every day i could get some nice points, and i got my bloody baron from it, but now i't s getting a lot harder to get something.
PS: forgot about it, almost every opponent i face in the first stage, got a hanuman/gorgon/balthazar in hand, and plays it exactly when i draw my thalassa, so no more recycle for the WHOLE GAUNTLET. Those cards are OP to face there.... Now i'm working on a 2nd thalassa, leveling a lot of creatures with 4-3 stars and keep destroying enemy creatures and repeat on next stage.

It's not too bad if you build Gauntlet focused decks. The enemy creature don't revive either so you can use a lot of little tricks to pick off some of the enemy creatures so your main deck can come in and destroy the stage. I've beaten it a few time and the best tip I can give you is have lots of heroes.

I have all 2-3 stars heroes except bow master, and it helps a lot, but i think the best would be to have a lot of multiple 3-4 stars creatures to lvl 5-10 and throw them in the early stages to weaken the decks u face if they are too hard... btw i found patriarch and gladiator ones of the best if u manage to build a good human hp/ice Shell deck for this purpose. Need to level more creatures !

Its based on level. When I first started I use to reach 13-14, constantly. That's only with frost raegers, magic weavers and a flame brave. Then adding the odd blood warlock to aid my hero. I'd always hold off till all 5 creatures were ready before deploying them, so this would take its toll on the hero. That's were blood warlock came in handy. Oh and a 3* hero with high faction HP buffs are essential.
Now, I barely get to the first silver chest... Just developing heaps of creatures to at least level 5 helps, that way they become usable in the gauntlet... Can help grind out another stage..

Hi Silencethesirens, are u still using blood warlock till now? It worked for a little bit, but by around level 40+ the opponents wear you down way quicker because of the size of decks. (8-10cards) So it started to become less successful very quickly. I still use the strategy now if I lose and leave half an enemy behind... Good way to finish em without hurting your next line-up.

As it is now, the better your deck, the worse you do. I have been able to beat the gauntlet 2 times. The first time I beat it, I got 5 shards for a 5 star hero, I got pretty excited, but the 2nd time gave me just 3 shards for a 4 star or 3 star hero, so nothing special.....after that I figured it's not worth spending the time and effort beating it if that's all I get...

The gold chest at the end of the gauntlet is totally worth the effort.
1-5 shards of 4-5* hero (common drop) 4* hero (rare drop) -> I've gotten a Dragon rider and a Paw master 5* creature (rare drop) -> I've gotten a gorgan, 2 hinumans
I'm hoping some one can tell me if there is a chance of getting a 5* hero (hero, not just shard) from the gold chest. That would make my day.

Man a 4* hero at that stage of the game would be nuts!

Gauntlet, guild maps and trials - these "events" is what this game is all about ATM. Unfortunately, I can only progress to about level 4-6 in gauntlet - meeting only crazy decks on my way lol.

My goal is to get past the third stage in the gauntlet for the 200 token reward. This means I actually use my best deck (revive/instakill morti) from the first stage, and try to power through using every card/hero I have to go as far as I can. On average, I beat the first 4 stages, but today I only beat up to stage 3. The other day I beat stage 5. So it depends. As long as I get that first silver chest, I consider that a victory now Its just too brutal when the first deck is a devil hunter with Agile 7 or something like that.
