Stage-by-Stage Guide
Understanding when to level, roll, and transition is crucial for maximizing your success with Mecha / N.O.V.A. / Voyager / Brawler / Conduit / Marauder / Dark Lady. This guide breaks down the optimal play pattern for each stage of the game.
Prioritize economy above all else. Loss streak intentionally if your board is weak — the extra gold and carousel priority will help you hit your late-game power spike faster. Aim for 50 gold by Stage 3 if possible.
Continue building economy while maintaining a playable board. Level to 6 at Stage 3-2 only if you're taking too much damage. Otherwise, stay at level 5 and save gold. Look for Maokai and Urgot as temporary carries.
Stage 4 is when you commit to the fast 9 strategy. Level to 7 at Stage 4-1 with a small rolldown (10-20 gold) to stabilize. Then save everything for level 8 at Stage 4-5 or 5-1, and push to level 9 at Stage 5-2 or 5-5. Your 5-cost units (Bard, Morgana) come online at level 9.
At level 9, roll for your 5-cost legendaries: Bard, Morgana. Each 2-star legendary significantly increases your win probability. At this point, you should be one of the strongest boards in the lobby. Position to counter the remaining 2-3 players.
This is a high-cost composition that requires excellent economy management to reach level 9 with enough gold to roll for your legendaries.
