Who is the best player in Game of War? A long time ago, before coliseums, kvks, and relic gear, CardRx had far more power than anyone.
He resided in k58 where he single handedly terrorized the kingdom with 640 million power. That was about a year ago when gold packs contained no resources, no chests, and about 1/1,000th of the speed-ups they contain today. CardRx farmed the whole kingdom in order to steal the resources he needed to grow.
Now, there is another beast in Game of War, though, he is more of a humble giant. His strategy involves working together with many different alliances in an attempt to claim the No. 1 spot. He is XxKuranxX and he is hands down the leader of high-level play in Game of War. He has two accounts, one with 13 billion power and the other with 7 billion. Using these beasts and with the support of his team, they have taken turns controlling the Super Wonder for 210 days, while zeroing more than 30 different billion+ power accounts.
Have you spent over $100k? "Yes," he said.
A staggering amount of money that most people don't even get close to making in a year. You could buy a brand new Tesla with that much money.
Behind this stardom, is a well-mannered and humble guy in his 20s. He says his favorite parts of Game of War are "the social aspect, working together, and making friends."
I interviewed one of his very talented alliance members, Wahid1, and she said that they initially became friends after Kuran assured her the loss of a kvk kill event was not due to the points she lost defending the Wonder. It was a few months into Wahid's Game of War journey and she was still learning the ropes.
Kuran declined to answer whether or not he was the best player in Game of War, but did say, "every plateau, we have hit," meaning, his alliance has triumphed at all stages of the game, through every iteration developed by Machine Zone. Just a few weeks ago he zeroed a 2 billion power account in 10 minutes using the new rally time and rally march reduction research.
He also claims to have invented the most popular play style in Game of War today.
I invented T1 traps... the first time I saw the report we asked ourselves, 'Are we really going to take this route?'” he said. “We were too invested at that point. We had to. It was fun in the beginning.
He didn't stop there.
Some people will argue, but we started using the one-troop type rally first.
The way it works is, we rotate troop types when rallying billionaires,” he said. “It's the most effective way. Also, we defend the wonder with one type... the strategy is less effective now though.
Kuran told me he invented the "camp trick." To perform the camp trick, you send hundreds of thousands of troops to a camp. When the enemy sends a march to attack the troops at your camp, you recall your troops, then as fast as you can: port on the tile where your camp was, then quickly port away so the enemy march hits your stronghold instantly.
To date, I do not believe there has been a more progressive player in Game of War.
We talked a little bit about the new alliance city and he seems to agree with the majority of GoW players.
Useless at this point,” he said. “Maybe down the road we will be able to rally them and that will make things more interesting. They will become mini-wonders.
Although Kuran is progressive, he wasn't sure where MZ is going next.
Bigger rallies would be nice, it's a game of traps." He paused then said, "Maybe a new point system would fix the widespread nature of trap accounts.
The advice Kuran has for new players is crucial.
Have a direction of what type of player you want to be.
At Game of War Real Tips we frequently mention the importance of choosing a play style and sticking with it. You have to specialize to be successful in Game of War.
Last but not least, Kuran claims not to work for Machine Zone, but he would say this to the CEO if he met him face to face:
I wish I would have thought of this game first.
