To keep the Decks section user-friendly, we need to set some minimal standards for deck posts.  Thanks for helping keep the forum clean and well organized! – The Deckhelper Team





Decks using cards "In Development" belong in the Beta Decks Section. (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,213.0.html)

All threads must include an image of the deck.
Code by Planplan

1. On the elementsthegame homepage click on “Your deck”, then “Import/Export”.

2. Highlight all the code and hit Control-C to copy the code.

3. When writing your post, look for this icon: (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/Themes/default/images/bbc/deck.gif) and press it.

4. Paste the code between the tags using Control-V.

5. Press "Preview" and verify there’s a deck image (with mark) and the deck import code below it.

6. If the deck image is not showing up correctly, check the position/amount of all [].

Example:
by willng3
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4ve 4ve 4ve 4ve 4ve 4ve 4vf 4vf 4vf 4vf 4vf 4vf 4vn 4vn 4vn 4vn 8pj

Before you post, check if your deck has already been posted.

1. Find the card codes:
Search the code for each card in the spreadsheet below and copy (or note) it.
(Maxwell’s Demon and Plague = 4vd 52p for example)

Link for all cardcodes (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,22664.0.html)

2. Copy and paste this into the Forum Search (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?action=search;advanced;search=)
Just copy or write your codes for your crucial Cards in the search engine.
If you want to search in a specific section (Mono-decks, Duo-decks, Trio- and Quartet-decks, Rainbow decks), deselect "Check all" and press "+" here: (http://i.imgur.com/V5Hj5nX.png)
Now, mark the section(s) in which you want to search.
3. Press enter
Now have all post including your card codes somewhere.

If you hit reply on an older thread you receive the following message:

This is a good opportunity to assess whether your post really adds value.  However, replying in old posts is explicitly allowed in the Mono-decks (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,2.0.html), Duo- decks (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,3.0.html), Trio- and Quartet- decks (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,437.0.html), Rainbow decks (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,4.0.html), and Deck Compilations (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,484.0.html) sections.  Posting your thoughts/deck version/experiences in the outdated thread is much preferred over creating a separate thread.
Mono-deck definition
The forum definition of mono-decks changed at one point in history and this seems to be a source of confusion.  The current definition is "Cards from only one element and "Other".  Mark is irrelevant.

The definition is not
  • decks that use only one type of quanta
  • decks that use only cards that match the mark, where no "other" cards are allowed.
  • decks that use one air card and 59 aether cards
Animate Weapon is an Air card, Nova is an Entropy card, Photon is a Light card, and Spark is an Aether card.  If you have a mono-fire deck that uses any one of these, it's not a mono-fire deck.  Please put your thread in the Duo- decks forum (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,3.0.html).

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
4t4 4t4 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f4 5f4 5f4 5f4 5f4 5f4 5fe 5fe 5fe 5fe 5fe 8pq
It's a mono-fire deck because it only uses fire cards and "other" cards.  Mark is irrelevant.
Mark: earth
Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
5f2 5f2 5f2 6rl 7dg 7dg 7dg 7dg 7dg 7dg 7dg 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dq 7dq 7dq 7dq 7dq 7dq 7ds 7ds 7ds 809 809 809 809

An earth mark, an "other" card, and 25 fire cards would make this a mono-fire deck if it weren't for the four aether cards.  Despite them having zero cost and serving no real purpose other than Cremation fodder, the presence of the Ball Lightnings makes this a duo.

Topics featuring more than one type of deck (e.g. Mono, Duo, Trio & Quartet, Rainbow) belong in the Compilation Decks Section. (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,484.0.html)

Any topics which fail to post deck images in the proper format by using the forum deck image builder will be moved to Deck Help until this has been fixed.

This needs to be updated. It's pointing all decks with shards to the Beta forum.

Edit: I fixed this :)
