Fire decks seem to be pretty powerful in the Arena.

Seems fire and entropy dominate the top,

(top25 has besides fire/entr.)
1 Earthv   (which i think is also a cremate rush =p)

two darkness players
as CCCombobreaker just posted him with time.
& Me with Death.


Yay For Nova/Cremate rush & Firestall?

:/
could use some more variation in my humble oppinion.

It's not that people aren't posting other decks... it's that those ( ) decks simply dominate the opposition more effectively than anything else. Thus, the others don't make it into the top 25. Or 100. Or 500.

now how are you supposed to make a good deck against fire stall that will do good against most other decks?

Tried it fully upped against silver, ye it's a decent counter to fire stalls but it doesn't work against:
- mono aether(dim shield and immaterial creatures)
- Life rush(mitosis, adrenaline and many forms of healing)
- Rainbows(this deck is just too slow to be able to deal with rainbows)

so, no it doesn't do good against the most used decks in arena other than fire decks.

Has anyone else besides me tried 'Fractal Retrovirus' on Arena? Deck topics for those that aren't familiar with this deck concept:
DoSA (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,17967) and Retro deck (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,19550)

I believe it was that was first FG-grinder that had really good win% against Eternal Phoenix, so at least some decks should be doable with these. Any thoughts or comments on this strategy?

Death based decks (such as DoSA and DIE LAVA RUSH DIE) work well against Immo rushes/fast fire decks. They should be able to work to somewhat of an effect, if not rushed super crazy.

Fire element is clearly OP in arena be it a rush, or stall. Phoenixes, fahrenheit, explosion, cremation all become even more powerful with double draw. They are balanced when used outside of arena but become OP in arena. I don't think anything can be done about it. But i'm guessing as people get more experienced in arena, people are going to use more anti-fire decks hence balancing the issue.

There is no such thing as an "anti-fire" deck. There are anti-stall decks that can wipe firestall, and there are anti-rush decks that can wipe immorush, but unless you're talking about an anti-everything denial deck, there's no such thing as a deck that completely wipes everything from one element.
