forbidden chalice can in fact negate komushroomos effect, you just gotta activate it during the damage step. I agree on what you say with divine wrath though. I just dont really like using it, since I really like the hand advantage aliens can provide.

if your opponent is running a backrow-heavy deck, it might be an idea to not instantly smash into a-countered monsters. that way telepath can snipe backrow every turn. though if theres a lot of backrow in plat, you might wanna keep ama.

rebirth provided so much for me, it was insane. from pulling a marshalleaf'd warrior out of my grave to prevent sylvans from otking me to putting a telepath in the gy with recombination device and then pulling it out again to snipe two backrow. hell, its even given me tribute fodder before to bring out alien overlord in the most desperate of cases. powerful rebirth is that one card people initially overlooked, but by now everyones realized that of all cards in blade of spirits, rebirth is by far the best.

though if youve been going well, keep going. you still have a day to hit legend (100 gems $$$), so good luck!

I guess I didn't read Challice carefully enough at the time.  Might change between the two occasionally, since both are good options

Well, I spend some gem almost 800, but I did get a copy of Rebirth, which proved immediately useful in my first PVP today.  I've seen this run in quite a few decks in PVP so finally having one will be useful.  If only my tries at getting a Super Headlong Rush were successful.....

I just got to Plat 4.  Honestly, I only got back into PVP the last few days because the 60 dice pieces a day were better than NPC grinding.  I got a bit burned out trying to get to 120 wins mostly in Platinum, so I haven't touched ranked in 2 weeks.  I'll probably just get demoted to gold, stick there to rack up most of the wins next season, then try to blitz through Platinum once some of the rush dies down (maybe halfway through the month).  

The card rewards for the event might not be great, but I've got enough copies to begin converting them for UR and SR stones.........plus the occasional gems (5 to 30) are starting to add up.

Edit:  Also, changed my avatar to Touhou's resident Alien.  I intended to do this when I started running Aliens this ranked season, but then I ran with Chaos Command Magician instead.  Sorry if it feels like I'm copying @Ojama Yellow, but your avatar change reminded me earlier

super rush headlong has seen better days tbh. its not a bad card necessarily, but its starting to suffer from the 'generic backrow getting phased out' thing. its status as a quick-play spell is good, though.

can understand the getting burned out thing- I had exactly the same going on for ranked myself. I only really picked up again yesterday, and apparently aliens were good enough to bust me from legend 1 to kog in two days. overall 139 victories this season, for both kc cup and ranked added together.

and yeah, ive noticed that theres more to the event than the card rewards. sure, theyre still shit, but ive been getting very good gems so far, and thats not even mentioning the free vagabonds you continuously get. mai is liking them.

the more ayy lmaos the better. let the alien flow through you.
