The Amazing, the Incredible, Pesty FG Deck!

[Terroking]

DISCLAIMER: This deck is extremely outdated and has a very low win rate against False Gods.

Yes, it can be done. Obviously Rainbow is impossible, and Chaos Lord can only be beaten on an incredible draw, but the rest can all be taken down. Here it is!

All around, I think it's very balanced, although I am considering replacing the Dusks with Phase Shields, but tha'll mean I've got to get more Aether Towers in...

Anyways, the basic strategy is to get a Pest out, Fractal it as much as you need to in order to suck the FG dry, then Fractal Vampires (If you have the slots, if not then simply beat them down with Eclipse'd Pests) for a fast mastery win. If you can get the quanta, spamming vampires is often the better choice over Pests, since they will heal and deal a ridiculous amount of damage.

Before you try out this deck, be aware that it can easily have 10-15 game losing streaks, but also trhat it relies heavily on the playstyle. Against most gods, the objective is not to deny them, but to get out a horde of Vampires. This will almost always result in an EM victory, and how much quanta the FG has doesn't really matter if it's dead.

The Vampires are there as healing and the main source of damage, the Steals help immensely in many situations, the Pests are there to pester the FG, eclipses to they can pester more, and Fractal multiplies your pestyness by 8.

Here are a few screenies:









Yes, it can beat Decay. Says something about deck-building eh xdude?

Side Note: Seems all of these non-rainbow FG decks use Fractal...

I ran a very similar deck for my Halfblood grinder--I suspected it could be tweaked for the FGs.  As I haven't tried in with the FGs yet, I don't know how badly you need the shields, but consider -2 shields, +2 siphon lifes....once you have your pests up and running, 4 stacked siphons can be killer!

[Terroking]

I think the shields help a lot more than Siphons will, except in the case of PA'd Diamond shield (Which actually happened already >.<), because they can give you the time you need to get the pests up and running. By then, hopefully you can get out some vamps before they kill you and fractal those for the win.

Yes--6 or more vamps = win.

How did you play divine glory without him getting out one morning glory?

[Kurohami]

Quanta denial, I suspect. This deck is wicked, but I assume it can only denial the gods successfully on a VERY good draw.

It's not so much the draw. I'm looking in the direction of the possibility of the results of games being rather highly dependent on the outcome of the coin toss.

[breach]

my first play with a slightly altered version of the deck
(2x Improved Steal instead of 2x Improved Dusk)
was a fat mastery over Rainbow, when we both had a good start.
next win was versus Dark Matter, who despite his own draining efforts,
kept being negated playing anything over 3-4 quanta till death...
more and more wins coming.

I absolutely love this deck. thanks, Terror!
to the skeptics; try the deck first and then form an opinion. 

about the Steals;
I kinda find Dusk useless since if the game is going right, you've got the Vampires making up the damage
and the Pests denying anything that could possibly change the outcome.
Steal, on the other hand, even furthers your denial by possibly taking out a weapon (lobo anyone?) an important
permanent (Rainbow's hourglass) or even if the god is low on towers. (rare gravity towers of Gemini for example)

[Baily18]

Im adding 2 steals to this, for permanant control and 2 give you 2 turns to not deck out.

[Wisemage]

well from my first match ive come to the conclusion that fighting decay is a bad idea.

[xdude]

It CAN beat Decay. So can speed poison beat Scorpio

[Arondight]

It can beat decay, because it only has a darkness mark for Pests. You have the speed advantage.
