I'm curious to know which 2 people think they're an ultra-legendary :P

I'm hoping for Ultra-Rare for the Founder badge and SC resolution, plus Postmaster General/Eggs/a couple gold stat badges. If I can get to the top 250 in deck value, that might be Epic, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Given my improving stats, I thought I would update my predictions.

This nation, with badges and DV boost combined (I hope I can get to the top 100) is likely to be rare.

Guaylandia, with the Issues Author badge, will likely be Ultra-Rare, and hopefully its influence could push it up to Epic.

0x00 will be at least uncommon, and quite possibly rare, due to its founder badge.

All my other nations will be common or uncommon.

Is it better to be a founder, or to have more influence and endorsements?

I'm probably wrong, but I think that influence and endos up to top 1% would be better than a founder badge. That would be 2 gold badges vs 1 gold badge, but maybe somebody else here could answer better.

That makes sense, although I also heard that the founder badge by itself is also quite a boost. As for me, there's no chance of getting top 1% of endorsements or influence, so I founded region instead. I would really like to be epic.

Based on your present stats I would guess you'll be rare or ultra-rare. Which isn't half bad.

Yup, the founder badge is a boost. From my observations, founder is guaranteed UC, but most seem to be rare. Perhaps if you get one or two WA members in your region to become delegate and boost yourself to top 250 for International Artwork, you can become Epic (or at least UR).

I was UC in Season 2, with only 1 Gold Badge, now I have over 10, as well as nearly 30 of Bronze and Green. I think it will be hard to get top 250 for artwork, since it's at least 900 DV, but I will try.

Can a founder also be delegate?

Yup, founders can be delegates. Here's a list of Epic cards with the founder + del badges: https://azure.nsr3n.info/card_queries/g ... mit=submit
Considering you have better stats than Jocospor and about the same as Gandoor, you might make it. I say might because how the game calculates what rarity we'd be might change slightly.

Do you think only top 250 in DV get a boost?

Iirc, top 250 is the smallest boost.

I figure that I will be an epic in S3 as I am a founder with 21 top 1% badges. if I'm lucky I may get legendary.

I want to say Ultra-Rare just because I am a rare card in S2 and my stats have been gradually improving. I’m in the Top 5% for 23 different stats at the moment and I’ve found a couple of Easter eggs, which I hope helps, however I’ve lost my Founder badge. Like I said, I want to say I’ll be an Ultra Rare, however I wouldn’t be surprised if I stay as a rare or even become an uncommon card.

A founder badge isn't hard to get.

Try an easter egg or something.

According to above sources, founder is guaranteed UC. If you get easter egg and get at least 2-3 gold, I think it's a close to rare.
