The Lone Hero [rainbow][unupped][Bronze League] https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=28142.msg359273#msg359273
« on: July 01, 2011, 05:15:21 pm »
This is my current unupped Bronze League deck on my alt account.  I consistently get to the 5th ring and then lose.  It needs just a tiny bit of help to get over the curve and start winning me some rares.  Any ideas?

The Lone Hero is the Iridium Warden, which singlehandedly wins me about 50% of my games. With Blessing or Momentum, he gets even better, but even without them he's known for holding off 8-12 damage per turn for 4-6 turns at a go; better than any mere shield.  Other than that, everything here is straightforward: attack, attack, attack.  My only rares thus far are Discord and Vamp Dagger, so don't suggest Arsenic plzkthxbai!
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

Not knowing exactly what is causing your deck to lose, would you be better served with running your Discord instead of the Lycan and a Nightmare instead of the Vampire Stiletto?

Of course I didn't win anything, but of the 10 games I played with this, the warden sadly only helped me win 2. How has the warden been winning so many game for you?

-fireeater
-frog
-poison(both)
+ adrenaline (on blessed warden this is win)
+ fleshspider
+ another warden
+another deflag

The adrenaline pretty good with either shreikers or the blessed warden, a second warden improves your mitigation and the ability to nullify enemy creatures with abilities.  The flesh spider let's you remove airborne off things so your warden can kill them, and is also a decent attacker, and most arena decks run at least 2 troublesome permanents.  Also nothing saddens me like getting phase shieled hard and never drawing the 1 deflag.

Re: ddevans -- There's just a lot of blatant creature rushes in Bronze right now, and the Warden lets me trade 1 :earth + 1:earth /turn for stopping and occasionally killing anything from a Bone Dragon to a Lava Golem.  It's never targeted by enemy CC because it's always flanked by Shriekers, so it just gets left there to completely shut down a big chunk of my opponent's attacking power.

As to the decks that I often lose to, somewhat ironically immediately after posting this I went on a currently 13-game winning streak so I'm having a hard time cataloging losses to formulate an intelligent response.  Once my luck changes again I'll let you know. :D

Re: CCCComboBreaker -- Flesh Spider sounds like a brilliant move.  I'll try it, and +Rep.

Adrenaline, however, costs 4 which means it's basically a dead card for 2/3rds of the game...not sure it's worth it.

hm, the only time I really needed the warden was against a fire spirit rainbow. Usually I left my graboids burrowed until the final blow, unless my other creatures weren't getting CC'ed. There's tons of decks in bronze league though, so maybe we're playing completely different decks :)

The spirit I would say is much better than the frog. Adrenaline might be a nice replacement for it too. Getting a fog shield out early helped me in around half my games as well.

Any of the various Graboid Rainbows Team Aether used during War #3.  They really do work quite well.

But that aside, this deck looks very interesting.  I'd agree on dropping the Frog for a Forest Spirit though.

I think Adrenaline would be too expensive for it to see much use. I might go -1 Poison +1 Fog Shield, fog shield helped alot in the games i played so far.
