Tinkady's Winged Speed Rainbow 1.24 https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=9001.msg105830#msg105830
« on: July 01, 2010, 09:33:56 pm »
This is my PVP deck right now, its pretty clearly a variant of Terro's but all rainbows are similar anyways and I think its unique.  Its more balanced than the original in many ways, and I can't think of any way to make it obviously better.  But there are tons of variations you could make, like with any rainbow.
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6u1 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u5 713 713 745 77g 7ae 7ah 7dq 7gm 7ju 7n8 7n8 7q5 7t9 7t9 80a 80a 80g 8pj

I decided to add wings because I already had 3 spiders in my old version and wings gives you a lot of stalling for one card.  Fog is okay, but other than that the only options for  :air are eagle's eye, elite wyrm, and unstable gas, none of which are very good (EE could work but its expensive and theres already a weapon). Pretty simple to use, play normally and web anything big and flying as soon as you can.  If you have extra :air, web more, and if you're short just get dragons.  You cant wait until the last minute to play wings because things can sneak in there before they get webbed and you have no healing.
Possible variations: wings and spectre for 2 giant frogs, angel to morning star, steal to explosion, steal to liquid shadow, etc
Questions or comments?

Looks pretty strong I'd say.

If you have extra :air, web more, and vice versa.
Doesn't that mean "if you web more, you have extra :air?"
Nice deck by the way. I expect to see many of these right after the update.

is this deck for PVP or FG grinding?

I failed to account for the gocubbies factor. - Boingo
I like to make flying weapons decks.

wings is live! based only playing a few games, i'm considering taking out one of the wings because they clog up your opening hand sometimes. but i'm leaning towards keeping both. if i do take one out i'd replace a wings and the forest spectre with 2 giant frogs
EDIT: a golem deck just got a perfect start but an opening hand wings rendered it useless  :P 
i won despite getting 2 towers and 1 nova the whole game

My speedbow is very similar to this with a few card changes. I don't like werewolves in a speed rainbow personally, they take up the :darkness quanta that you need for your steals. I'd also suggest having at least 1 deflag, I also did only the 2 steals originally but there were a good number of times I wish I could totally destroy a permanent rather than steal it. I also like taking buff cards (like adren or momentum) as adrenaline makes a 7attk creature go to 15attk, an increase of 8dmg which is more than a giant frog for 1 :life more and momentum is great for turning a spider of yours from a 6attk adren(12dmg) to a 7attk adren(15dmg).

i like graboids more than flesh recluses so i have 2 graboids and 1 recluse. i have a morning glorey instead of the archangel. and 2 hourglasses instead of tunderbolt and i use 1 bonewall and 1 fog shield instead of wings.

With 2 wings having 2 flesh recluses is important. I like having 2 wings instead of a 1fog too, one is temporary and one is permanent, i feel like having 1 permanent shield in a speed rainbow is enough or 2 temp ones.

i know why there are 2 recluses and i like have 1 temporary schield and 1 permanent and 1 can draw enough creatures because i have hourglasses.

yeah, as TheoCT said my version needs 3 spiders because it uses wings, which is a really efficient card. 2 hourglasses could work but (not having tried it) i think itd be too much. cause in a small rush deck you should be able to use every card you draw, and the 2nd hourglass would be a dead draw. same with the morning star vs dicord? but i havent tried that either
