New False God: Eternal Phoenix

[yaladilae]

Anyone won it with your standard rainbow yet?

Assuming he doesnt have bad draw...

Looks really hard to beat.

The game was too hard already...Besides wasn't something like "don't make gods harder than rainbow" in that new gods topic? Then it actually gets added, great...although I personally hate Decay (that god is a non-rainbow nerf pretty much), and Neptue (7 creature slots only? And those creature keep getting frozen? Yet another deck that kills the ONLY alternative to rainbow, the fractal/hope) even more.

best way i can see to get a chance against this god is to get out a diamond shield with PA on it relatively early. he tries to rush you with fractal phoenixes so they'd be doing 1 dmg each. dragons could be an issue there though, but otyugh could take care of them. these are just observations based on looking at the deck and fighting him once

I think adding rush decks to the FG roster is a mistake.  Since the only way to handle all the gods is with a rainbow, and unless its a speed rainbow (which doesnt work well on FGs) a rush deck will rape a rainbow unless he gets a lucky start

So unless a way to pick (or just exclude some gods) your enemy is added this is a big mistake.

I won my first game with Puppys deck against Eternal Phoenix.

Lol this new FG gives us one more reason to use small rainbows instead of large rainbows.

Well, atm, FGs are the hardest AI in the game, so some of them should be a challenge.

OK guys, whine mode on cuz, guess what, I registered on forums just for that.

This guy is ridiculous.

I'll go double it at Dreamcatcher thread, probably, but... let me just have a guess. FGs are the only reasonable source of grind in the game.  Ihave no problems habing my ass handled to me by Seism or Rainbow every day, I just look up if I have protect artefact in my opening hand right away and if not I quit

Now, this dude.

So, he destroys all my pillars (unless he got REALLY useless draw), he spams creatures that are impossible to kill, and he wipes my board sometimes, to boost. I kind of like it. I mean, OK, I see him I quit, too, cuz it's not point wasting time. Not only he got all the FG "normal" bonuses, he also got a deck that actually uses all of it.

Whoever invented this FG, thank you very much, you just made my playing Elements less fun. Do not feel ashamed, Dreamcatcher is the same. Heck, I even managed a random win here and there when they are dealt truly useless hands.

I find solace in telling you back that I still can pilot more unbeatable deck with 3x mark, 2x life and draw.

Honestly, to wrap the whine up. I understand the reason behing FGs being this tough: AI is suboptimal, gains are ridiculous, etc. However, making plain impossible FGs, barring some 1-in-1000 draw combinations (my best one vs his worst) just takes the fun away from the game. As I happened to like it, actually, I wouldnt want to see that happening. But, then again, I'm just a lame whinenoob, and it's just me.

I just fought it with puppies deck. Got pwned Im curious, howd you do it? :O

[asymmetry]

IMHO: If only EP didn't use explosions... I think it'd be balanced. Then you'd "just" need to be faster than him.

But that's just me. I like fractal phoenixes and I got tired of winning with it, with no big effort... maybe it's just karma XD.

[killsdazombies]

he just pased rainbow and is up with semis with my fg hate list!

[jallenw]

Pwned.   

Elem Mastery without miracle.  I didn't even have to set up my normal win condition.  I just sundialed until he had a full screen of phoenix, droped bonewall and boneyard, then firestorm, he re-upped the phoenix, I firestorm again.  17 cards left in the deck, one mutant,  Skeletons beat him sensless.  He Firestormed them, but the damage had already been done.  Bonewall/Boneyard/Firestormx2 for the win.

By far the fastest false god victory I have ever gotten.
