They aren’t available as easily, but are worthy additions to your Arena 8 deck.

There are two very good support cards unlocked – Bowler and Ice Wizard. Support is very important, especially in this arena. For example, if I chose the Balloon earlier, I’d do better to choose the Skeleton Barrel instead of the Mega Knight. Choose a secondary win condition that compliments your main win condition. So go right ahead and pick up a secondary win condition from these cards.ĭon’t just choose a secondary win condition because you like it. Believe me, this is the hardest possible arena to get across because there’s just so many decks with improved synergy out there! You’ve got cards that counter Mega Knight by themselves (Bowler), cards that kill Bats and Skeletons upon death (Ice Golem) and even a fast dude who spills Rage all over the map (Lumberjack). This arena is where you need to focus on not losing. I would recommend you to choose between these three cards as a primary win condition. Building Your Own Arena 8 Decks! Pick a win condition, or maybe pick two! I’m also suggesting decks without any Legendaries and possible replacements for Legendaries. I’m going to assume that you have at least one and possibly two Legendary cards. But fear not, for I’m going to give you three excellent Arena 8 decks that will take you to Jungle Arena!įurther, if you read this guide thoroughly, you’ll be able to build a deck yourself! This is mainly because of the new synergy between Lumberjack, Balloon and Freeze. So here are a few more pictures.You’ll be seeing a sudden increase in the number of Hogs and Balloons – at least for a while. I literally just received the Venue 8 Pro, so I need more time.

This is what a Windows mini-tablet is supposed to be, methinks. ( Update: You can fix this by disabling adaptive display in Power Options, though this will likely impact battery life.) But. The Windows button is a tiny hub on the top edge of the device (top being top in portrait view, by the way this is a mini-tablet), and there's no video-out that I can see. The charger is micro-USB (and not a proprietary unit) and there's a micro-SD slot for expansion. The device itself is beautiful, thin and light, and the back is a nice grippy texture. But where the W3 was immediately disappointing, the Venue 8 Pro is immediately delightful.

Obviously, I'll need to really use this thing over many days before I can be sure. It gets a reported 10 hour of battery life (which I'll be testing.) And it starts at just $300.įolks, your Windows mini-tablet has finally arrived. Like the Acer, it features an 8-inch 1280 x 800 screen, but the Dell's display is a vastly superior IPS unit with none of the horrible artifacting that doomed the W3. Like the Acer, it features an Atom processor, but this time around it's a quad-core "Bay Trail" processor, not a dual-core and previous generation "Clover Trail" processor.

And one of the first real Windows 8.1 mini-tablets to emerge is Dell's Venue 8 Pro, which improves on the W3 in some meaningful ways.ĭell Venue 8 Pro (top) and Acer Iconia W3 (bottom) Long story short: This device made it clear that a Windows mini-tablet could work, but the horrible screen and surprisingly thick and heavy form factor did it in.īut this holiday season, more choice emerges. You can read more about Acer's disastrous first attempt at a Windows mini-tablet in Acer Iconia W3 First Impressions and Photos and Acer Iconia W3 Review. And it's already quite apparent that this device is a dramatic improvement over the Acer Iconia W3 that shipped earlier this year. This is Dell's new 8-inch Windows 8.1 tablet, in case you wondering. I'm going to rush this one out because I know a lot of people are waiting on it: My Dell Venue 8 Pro arrived today.
