Atman: Rebel Flame is a popular roguelike auto-battler with a sci-fi theme and tons of fun decks and strategies to explore. With more than three different factions ranging from the Valhalla Rudder to the Dachao Pawnshop, each having various heroes with their own unique play styles.
With so many factions and so many heroes, it can be quite confusing for new players to figure out the mechanics of the game. To help you navigate the intricacies and ensure that you aren’t overwhelmed, here’s a complete Atman Rebel Flame guide for beginners with the best tips and tricks to help you become a pro.
Claim Your Check-Ins Regularly
Getting your hands on the new heroes in Atman: Rebel Flame can be quite difficult because of how expensive they are. As a beginner, the best way to acquire new heroes is by regularly claiming the check-in rewards which will reward you up to three new heroes including Oscar Tesla, Dan and even Lan Yu.
Be Sure To Understand The Talents
Whenever you level up during a match, you’ll have to choose a certain talent from three options. Each talent is crucial to your overall build since they can make or break your whole build.
Talents are associated with your hero’s faction. Certain talents even get rid of card conditions making overpowered in such cases.
NOTE
Always Remember To Bet
Prior to starting any fight, you’ll have the option to bet some amount of gold. If you win, you’ll be able to claim the entire pool of gold as a reward. While you might think this to be risky, it is quite the opposite and more often than not results in a profit for you.
Know Which Deck You’re Building
In any match, the key to victory is having a clear idea regarding which deck you’re planning on building. Every faction can have multiple heroes, and every hero can have multiple deck builds. So, you should always be clear about which deck you’re building and stick to it.
For example, the hero Matthew Tyr is from the Valhalla Rudder faction and has three builds: Thor, Baldur and Tyr. You can build whichever you want.
NOTE
Understand The Combat Mechanics
As a beginner, understanding the combat mechanics of Atman: Rebel Flame can be quite overwhelming. The simple explanation would be that in every match you fight against multiple opponents.
In every fight, there are multiple rounds, and every card of your deck is used in each round. The rounds continue till the hero on either side loses all of their HP. The player on the losing side also loses a certain amount of Gold and HP. Elimination happens when the value hits 0.
Choose Your Factions Carefully
As mentioned previously, there are multiple factions in Atman: Rebel Flame. These factions include Valhalla Rudder, Daochan Pawnshop and Dream Circus. Depending on your faction, you can choose a certain hero who has access to a specific deck of cards.
You can add additional cards to your heroes decks by purchasing new decks from the Shop. These decks are pretty expensive for beginners.
NOTE
Learn About Your Hero Before You Play
After you’ve decided on the faction, the next thing you need to understand is the hero that you’re planning to use. Apart from their decks, every hero has access to certain talents that can synergize with their cards. Be sure to check these talents, and pick the ones you want.
Know How Atman: Rebel Flame Works
After you’ve completed the match, you’re rewarded with a certain number of Gold Bars. These Gold Bars, for the time being, can be considered valueless since they are only used for two things: starting matchups and buying emotes from the shop.
If you wish to collect good reward, the best thing to do as a beginner would be to play the ‘Ranked’ mode directly. You can collect valuable items and currencies as rank-up rewards from this mode.
