SCorp deck

[Plantifant]

Hey, all
I'm looking or a upped deck with life scorps for the arena.
But I think they're not really good so.. I can't really make a deck with it.
Somone got a little help for me?
Thanks.

use mitosis/adrena with poison off a mark would be my first thought
use a or mark to power Asplosion or Unstoppable respectively might also work well
plenty of heals just to draw out the game in your favor

[Plantifant]

So, ok, have you got a sort of deck list, because I am not very good at making scorp decks lol :p

a bit simple and unupped, upped I would recommend less towers and some Epi
also x2 draw and +hp always helps

Okay, I've made a deck and tested it, I lost too so I think it will do well.
Thanks!

What I did when using Life Scorps was just to go:

Forest Scorpion - 6
Adrenaline - 6
Heal - 6
Life Pillar - 12

But this was against other mono-rush decks in a small, private comp so the pc/cc in arena might change things.

I had some success with:

Forest Scorpion 6
Adrenaline - 6
Heal - 3
Thorn Carapace - 3
Life Pillar - 6
Life Pendulum - 6.

I guess I'm going to lose too much with that

[MatrimKK]

well first off you have a minimum of 35 cards in arena, so this the perfect opportunity to splash something small off your mark (like I suggested above)

One of the biggest weaknesses of Forest Scorpions is their ineffectiveness against shields. Using upped Scorpions can alleviate some of this problem, except that if your opponent is also playing with upped cards, they may be using a shield that blocks 2 damage.

A way to get past this would be to duo with and add Blessings to your deck. This will give them 5 attack and make it so they can get past any damage blocking shields (except Hope). In addition, this will give them greater survivability. At 5 HP only Lightning Bolt and Rage Potion can take them down. So your poison can keep piling on.

Adding to your deck can also give you access to some other great cards:

Crusaders - Work well if you decide to use a Druidic/Jade Staff.
Sanctuary - They can heal you while your opponent is slowly dying to your poison.
Miracle - This card a lot of times can mean the difference between winning a game and losing one.

Another combo you can try with is using Rustlers. They can take each of your quanta and convert it into 2 quanta. Thus helping you to get out your cards faster.

Here's just a sample, feel free to do any tweaking you want.

How does this suggested deck deal with a Bonewall, out of curiosity?

[majofa]

Get as much poison on as you can before they get Bone Wall up.

This is just one variant, Epinephrines can be added as well.
