I am still confused, but dang, I ran out of critters. Either you support to get lumber, or get merit by doing the front lines.

First horn = retreated (bad decision though) Second, third = defence (collected 217 merits) Fouth, fifth = attack (collected 70 lumbers)
Good start for me :-)
Btw I chose imperial

Edit: This post was written prior to understanding that 5 attacks are regenerated every 3 hours.
My experience as a new lvl 52 F2P player.
I used 1 attack (horn) and received 166 merits (luck?) (Rank 883 atm) - That means optimistically I can get 830 merit/day = 4150 merit for the 5 day event. 1 attack consisted of: 4 battles total, 3 wins, 1 loss. I used a deck of ~ 7.3k deck power, w/ lvl3 wight hero. 47 merits (win) 23 merits (win) 70 merits (win) 26 merits (loss)
My wife who has a far weaker deck than I do only received 26 merit in her first attack, substantially less than my 166.
Very clearly, the longer your deck can survive, the more battles it can face and therefore the more merits it can win. Battles ARE matched up based on deck power, but I am not yet sure how successful artificially lowering your deck power will be for this event. Small synergy decks seems to be decent however.
I have not earned any lumber, and that seems like a "pay to purchase lumber via gems" situation (for hero shard rewards)
Additionally, my hero survived at 400HP. My creatures will be available in 1 hour. It wants 100gems for me to heal my hero back up - I'm not sure if it will go to full health (I hope so, otherwise I'm going to have to either kill it off and use up an attack, or use a shitty hero) in 2 hours. My wife's attack had her hero die, and it will revive in 2 hours.
Edit: after using all 5 attacks: I'm up to 603 merit, and merit rank 185. Rewards aren't nearly as bad as I first was concerned.

I dont know how to make deck for this. I made recycle 4 cards with power around 4500 and I got first opponent 30lvl higher opponent with deck power 7000 (5 melded cards)... So Im confused as well. I got 600 merits from first 5 horns. Im pretty sure, you can make 10000 merits easily with good melds with revive in this event. As we are used to deck heroes events, if you are pay2win, you can achieve 100000 merits.

I used a deck of ~ 7.3k deck power, w/ lvl3 wight hero. 47 merits (win) 23 merits (win) 70 merits (win) 26 merits (loss) That's not even enough to get the 4* Queen Temptress at 5000 merit in terms of guaranteed rewards. I'm currently still in the running for the 4* Chimera which is a rank reward at 501-1000, but I think it is highly unlikely I will stay in the running. My wife who has a far weaker deck than I do only received 26 merit in her first attack, substantially less than my 166. She has almost no hope of getting anything for rewards. Very clearly, the longer your deck can survive, the more battles it can face and therefore the more merits it can win. Battles ARE matched up based on deck power, but I am not yet sure how successful artificially lowering your deck power will be for this event. Unless that strategy is successful, this event is utterly useless for me in terms of rewards(low end cards). As an example, in the last sky arena I was at least able to win a mariner, that doesn't appear to be likely here I have not earned any lumber, and that seems like a "pay to purchase lumber via gems" situation (for hero shard rewards) I got the lumber from the "Support" button.

It seems like the event is going to end in 3 days, every 3 hours you get 5 horns. Assuming a 10 win streak gives you 800 merits, 3*24/3*5*800=96k. So if you could make a 10 win streak for every horn, you are possible to achieve it with spending a little gem. Basically impossible if your deck is not insanely strong.

So power is not matched then? Or yes?
Also, I noticed most of royal and wight knights went to imperials. Imperials will win for sure, but does that screw those who choose alliance?

I think it is matched, but it is not balanced. If I made 9k power deck I have been matched with 8-10k. If I made 4k power deck I have been matched with 4-7k... Always depends on luck. There are less members in alliance and I think stronger ones join alliance, cause they can be matched with weaker opponents more easily. If you have weak cards you naturally join majority to think you will be protected. But at the end I think it doesnt matter if you are not fighting for top 100.

Dilemma: Support to gain lumber that converts to medals OR Go and attack to gain merits.
The merits can be really good since most of the prizes are won by merits including those personal achievements. The good thing about gaining medals is that you have far less competition to get in the ranking. I have 140 medals an I am already on the 300+ rankings.

It is real dilemma > In info they say: When a watchtower is complete, players who contributed will gain medals and merits based on their contributions. We really dont know how many merits you will get or even if watchtower will be completed. But logically you can make more merits through fight. (It is standard habit in every game)

I am confused too. I think people will go for merits so I better go for medals.

I now understand the importance of "retreat". It is to save your creature and heroes from a defeat. That way, you will have beter chances of gaining merit. Wow...
Guys, RETREAT if its a big no no!

I won't be able to survive that long. I win over a couple of times then gets defeated. I only have a couple of recyclers and they are still unmelded. against 11k power decks this is not that advantageous. ill just get that QT and quit.

This event will be dominated by top tourney people... Unlike sky this is purely a contest of who has the best cards and also since most of the dominant players are in one faction... There is near zero resistance from the other faction to stop the consecutive wins

Until now I had used 15 horns. Had only one 4 win streak and two 2 win streks.
My total merits??? Only 653. I dont know why I have only 653 merits. My brother got 500 merits on his 3 win streak and first 5 horns in which he lost 3 battles and had one 3 win streak and one 2 win streak.
My deck is
Wight :death curse 6 (mortiI strenght 7, static 7, undying 7)
Mythril drone Venom tyrant (lvl 15, sacrifice rune on 5th level) Ash beast (lvl 15) Thalassa Death knight Hanuman Spider queen/nidhogg Hell wolf (lvl 15/ stoneskin melded) The twins Flame brave
And his was
Berserker :lvl 3
Nidhogg The twins Venom tyrant Graboid x3 Thalassa Moon gaurdian Venom queen x2
I dont know how merit system works but im on rank 415 r something in medal ranking so im happy as I need 25 berserker shards which will help me in getting my berserker to level 5.
But merit system. Its a mystery
(Note: in 12/15 horns, 4 I used for lumber and in remaining 8 horns, I had four 1 win streaks and four I lost)

The amount of merit u get is dependant on opponenent that u kill.. Example I did try using a hero killer deck and I did get 5 consecutive win but each win only 20 merit whereas I did a few time 10 consecutive wins and each of the win gives merit of 50-120 merit... The more merit means I manage to kill most of the opponents cards...it seems arxane knight is achievable.....

It is very strange to me. - event for the highest lvl players - Not balanced, I win one battle and next battle I get 90lvl+ with melded revives... Im 63lvl. - Watchtowers -> After 8 hours we have 3% completed. I guess many people bought 550 gems 1000 wood according ranking, so how many we need to complete watchtower lol? 100M? - Sky arena is more balanced, based on activity and skill more than luck, level and p2w. - Balance system between factions would be great. According to number of players and lvl. - 200 gems 5 horns buy -> and merit rewards offering low gems ammount in comparison with Sky arena.
