Trio & Quartet / What can I do without Novas, Pillars or Permanents?

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:10:33 pm »

I too like pillarless decks.

I'd suggest you take a look at IMMOLATE, the fastest way to burn yourself a hefty quantum surplus.

It'll turn your deck into Chaos/Fire, but that's cool, right?

Outdated Tutorials / NEWBIE GUIDE: How to become RICH in 1 Day

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:10:33 pm »

Are you sure this can be done in 1 day? Most ppl, especially newbies, won't spend five hours on the computer, let alone playing one game.

The day I found Elements, I probably played 5 hours straight, using several different accounts (because I wanted to try different strategies).

Issue Archive / PvP = Me v Me!?

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:10:32 pm »

Somehow I got into a PvP game against myself.

None of the controls were responsive (except the quit command).

Very strange.

Deck Help / A Fire/Earth deck I've been thinking about.

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:33 pm »

Why no Lava Golems?

I'd also think about Gnome Gemfinders and Brimstone Eaters (both are upgrades), plus some Immolation cards.

Deck Help / Zero Pillar Immolation Deck

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:30 pm »

Okay, I took the advice here to heart, and met with success. Thanks!

Here's my current deck (30 cards, mark of Fire):

6x Immolation
4x Nova
6x Photon
4x Crimson Dragon
3x Lava Golem
3x Deflagration
1x Blessing
1x Steal
1x Lobotomizer
1x Druid Staff


I've got enough coins for 3 upgrades. I'm thinking of adding some Brimstone Eaters in place of some Photons.

who wants to spend the money, honestly

Give money, keep game free.
Give money good.

Card just frosting.

Deck Help / Anti weenie 0 creature deck

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:30 pm »

Which Mark would you be? Boneyard isn't free, and Fire Shield & Deflag both cost Fire quanta.

You might want to throw in some Fire + Death pillars instead of all Quantum, or you might want to use Steal instead of Deflag to reduce competition for Fire dots.

Deck Compilations / Please criticize my aether deck.

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:30 pm »

One of my (very few) mono-Aether losses was by decking out against a Darkness deck, which had lots of Devourers out, and slowed me down considerably.

Having Immortals would have helped in that situation as well, so I put some in my deck.

Deck Help / Zero Pillar Immolation Deck

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:29 pm »

CB and ggabriel, thanks for your feedback.

Here's my experience so far:

- Graviton Fire Eaters: they are too expensive to feed, since I only make 1 Fire per round. They also deal no damage on the round they're played. I use Momentum instead, and that seems to add enough damage.

- Lava Golems: are also expensive to feed, since I don't produce any Earth naturally. I can generally feed one of them (since Immolation generates 1 Earth, it's always worth it to burn a Photon, Ash Eater, or any other minion to add +2/+2 to a Lava Golem). I love having one out, but having two out isn't quite twice as good, and more would be worth less I think.

- Dragons: if I can play two Immolations in round 1 (and neither is off of an Ash Eater), I can play a Dragon and a Lava Golem immediately.



I'm going to ditch my Rain of Fire cards (for a Deflag and another Ash Eater). I'll post results later.

Thanks again for the help! This deck is so much fun when it comes together.

Deck Help / what cards to use in a Rainbow deck

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:29 pm »

02 Chaos power (will not work unupgraded)-  use blessing
02 druids - elves will work just not as reliable

Could Chaos Bolt or Mutation fill in until you get the Druids?

Game Suggestions and Feedback / Game logs & deck statistics

« on: December 15, 2009, 10:09:29 pm »

What I'd really like to see in-game:
- Show card stats when hovering over Spin-to-Win pictures, even if you don't win a card. Helps newbies learn what cards the pictures represent.
- Log of cards played round-by-round, because sometimes I miss opponent's spells. Show card stats when hovering over a line in the log.
- Show what round it is.
- Show user's login name somewhere other than the PvP screen.

This stuff could be a totally different interface (not flash, just a web page):
- Wins and losses by deck and by opponent. It'd be nice to be able to name decks I use a lot, but if you can sort by number of games played with each configuration that'd be fine too.

Thanks.
