While everyone is thinking about the possibility of fractal, I think virus can be one of the best choices. Hope there are no similar deck posted before.

The upgrade of fractal are not necessary.
And I remain two virus non-upped as their cost is only 1.
In some situation it works better than retrovirus.

The build will be unbeatable as you can control the number of bonewalls by clicking on your virus, while at the same time decrease their living numbers.
Although immaterial can survive, they can't breakthrough as long as you have virus on hand. Momentum can be a risk, but virus can take them down. (although momentum massive dragon, but no flying titan pls)
the shots below are about diving glory and gemini.

The weakness is obvious, firebolt, poison, all shields, creature controls, etc.
Once the condors down, there will be no offensive power if opponent has a simple shield.

Put in Twin Parallel if you want to breakthrough miracle and empathic bond.
Arsenic is also optional to replace 1 graveyard, as too many graveyards may consume all the creature slots.


I can't say this build is effective in FGs compare with other god farmers, but it can also be played in different levels such as PvP and obtain a good result, as bonewall is one of the unbeatable stuffs in the game.

Good idea, leveraging the synergy between bonewall, condor, virus, and graveyard with fractal.

But I wonder about permanent control.  As long as the explosions and steals remain focused on your bonewall and not on the graveyards or towers...  And Firefly Queen may just heal more damage than you can do...

Furthermore, no healing (e.g., Octane's Unstable Gas and Hermes' Firebolts?)

This... this actually looks... really, really awesome.

This seems like a very good deck. Can you get some statistics for us? I'd love to see how an innovative deck fares.
Also, maybe some Ball Lightnings would help; those things, like Viruses, die very simply; plus, they're free.

Thanks for a great deck.

As mentioned, I'll give up when facing direct spells such as unstable gas, firebolt and poison.
But for Firefly Queen, I think you are talking about her emphatic bond. Let's think again, can she really heal every turns with the bonds?
And for permanent control, I have no worries about it as the number of bonewalls can always above 15 after the combo setup. What I wonder is I can't put in any permanent control to deal with some shields, especially fire shield and bonewall itself.

Lol, did you think about switching the mark to darkness and switching in some eclipses (skeletons go up to 4/3 and viruses go up to 3/2.)

This is a good idea. Then "Steal" can also be in for permanent control, but payoff is that stabilty of the deck will go down.
Let's test about it.

You will experience the real leveraging effect when you play fractal on condor.
One virus dies, all condors get +1/+1. At the end of opponent next turn, get another +1/+1 for each poisoned creature dies.

I've already tried a lot of combos with condor/virus/fractal/ ball lighting and I think ball lighting can be fun for play (a lot of dmg eg. 80-90 dmg at 4th turn in one attack) but it's useless in the midle-end game because ball lighting die and a single opponent bonewall/graveyard becomes an incovenient..

however I like this build of the deck.,..good job ;)

i've been messing with a deck similar to this in trainer. it's essentially the same except it wasn't running boneyard. boneyard seems like it would gum up your side of the board because you have no way to remove them. without them you can just fractal the retroviruses over and over again, sac them to pump up your condors/bonewalls and in the process free up room for even more viruses.

For Healing:

Easiest, for those who have them, would be to toss in a few Shards of Gratitude.

Running boneyards, you could easily build up a lot of skellies though, so splash a luciferin/ase with miracle... but that could be unwieldy and unnecessary, I'd prefer SoG's.

Needs quintessence to play on your Condors.

I tried this in the trainer and prefer the upgraded virus, the extra cost never became a problem.  The trick is to know when to kill all your viruses effectively.  Wait too long and it will be too late to win.  Go too soon and you won't buff your own creatures.  Great with practice.

That being said, your version beat gods, mine didn't.  Clearly sir, this deck is amazing.  +Karma
