Designed with the cheapskate5-tournament in mind, and it's a lot of fun. Took a lot of tweaking of the pillar/pendulum rate, but I've decided I like this ratio. At first, I had 3 OE's, but I drew them too seldom that way. With 8 weapons, I have some leeway against PC and plenty of stuff to fly in case of strong CC. Because yes, you're going to need strong CC to take this down.
Naturally offence is its main weakness, and a Fire Shield/Thorn Carapace annihilates it (although you can still win with the weapon in the weapon slot if it got out late), and Gravity Shield slows it down to a crawl. Of course, the former two shields were banned due to high cost, and Gravity Shield is underused. Antimatter was naturally banned as well.
First version was also 30 cards and had 2 Fog Shields, but I didn't really need either as much as I needed to get the combo going faster. 3-card combos are tricky to balance and trickier to play. Gotta know when to play what, especially when you pack Flying Weapon. Fog Shields are a double-edged sword as well; if it gets stolen, you'll have some trouble. However, I could've used them in this tourny. Ah well, it was a lot of fun. ^_^
