So I'm farming Gold Arena with Day Traitors (Someone really needs to fix the search button so I can link credit.) to see how well they do farming compared to my current deck, and they turn out overall to do very well. Its actually an easy deck to beat, but the metagame right now favors them, or at least it did at the time of this match, people are starting to throw in the standard counters now. The deck in question is a Firefly Queen deck. All cards upgraded. x3 Mark. 140-160 or somesuch hp. As I play this deck I'm thinking it'll be very easy, since most life focused decks fall to Day Traitors. It plays its first firefly queen pretty early, and begins generating its fire quanta. So its comp is a dab of fire, x3 Light Mark, Wind and Life Pillars. So I'm guessing by the Feral bonds out that its strategy is to splash the firefly energy for explosions and/or unstable gas, mark for Miracles, and to swarm with the Fireflies. But I have 2 nightmares and a lot of damage primed to go up. Do you know what it plays turn 4? Guess before opening the spoiler.
Hope. I'm dumbfounded, all upgraded FFQ's, and he runs Hope. I don't nightmare any more RoL's but its too late, with the DR gained through the ones he has + the regen from Feral Bonds... I get decked out. He played through enough cards to know that there was nothing that utilized the fire, and there were no light generating creatures in the deck. The deck made no sense at all, the Hope was unupgraded so I know that it would do literally nothing without my help, and I don't know whats worse, that this deck was made, or that I lost to it.
And thats my most embarrassing moment in Elements.
I hope you liked reading that. I know its probably not the type of story you were expecting, but its interesting and funny all the same. And as long as people enjoy it, it'll have been worth experiencing.

Destoying a fire-stall with love:

Same vs a Candlelight deck. What a pleasure to have a successful denial before the first sanctuary is out ...

Then, a nice Mitosis Fight - Same difference:

Image talks by itself, my opponent was very unluky with draw (only 1 tower, and it got stolen), so I denied him emptying its field, and, since the first creature to trigger his an uneclipsed pest, his quanta pool...My most satisfying arena match until now

I use lots of decks against Arena, but usually the most fun I have are while playing my 500 hp big timebow, since it gives lots of opportunities for unexpected comebacks.
Match 1 vs. Immo rush
Well, as you can imagine, Immo rush is not the best matchup for this deck, and it usually ends in a fast, hard beatdown
(http://img585.imageshack.us/img585/7986/arena11.jpg)
But once in a while you topdeck a Miracle at just the perfect time :D
(http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/9357/arena12b.jpg)
But don't you think it's over... in this match I was very close to loosing the whole time, and here's another perfect topdeck from the RNG gods (and luckly it was one devasting Pandemonium!)
(http://img233.imageshack.us/img233/5120/arena13.jpg)
In the end, I didn't even have to deck it out - immo rushes deserve a good Eternity beating, heh!
(http://img839.imageshack.us/img839/1285/arena14f.jpg)
Match 2 vs. Mutation deck
Of course, the RNG is not always on your side... come on, a destroying dragon AND a stealing scorpion? :(
(http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/7793/arena21.jpg)
Match 3 vs. Poison deck
Yay for random Purify in deck! :D (and yay for 41 poison counters!)
(http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/6778/arena31.jpg)
And almost 100 poison counters later... EM! :)

-losing to a 1hp deck because I was playing a damageless 500EM stoneskin stall
-losing to a 1hp deck because it spammed shard of divnity early
-beating the #11 ranked deck with 500EM stall and winning over 2100 electrum (I think there's a SS of this in my bloglike thread about my arena decks)
-finding an incredibly bad deck in the arena that was somehow ranked 33-0, and easily beating it twice in one afternoon, leaving it at 33-2 :p (it had dune scorps, pharaohs, and momentums, and pharaoh+scarab > scorpion for momentum priority lol)
-finding a deck in the arena that had spun trident; the creator apparently decided 'eff this' and made a monolife weenie deck with five dead cards, and I still lost
-getting a -zero- turn kill by killing a 1hp deck with thunderbolt
-defeating a dune scorpion deck by quinting all its scorpions so it couldn't buff them
I don't play arena that much; I haven't found a deck that reliably wins against it yet. The best I've managed are my FG rainbow deck, GotP Time, zombie's giantslayer, voodoo, and 500EM stall, but none of those have win %s that I'm happy with in the arena. I still play it once in awhile anyway, and always use my oracle pets there, so hopefully I'll get some good sshots soon :)

(http://imageplay.net/img/m7Gbd223076/arenafun3.png)One would almost say the ai got depressed of all those GotPs I killed and just gave up :3 (it discarded 3-4 total, mind you :P)
Faildraws are fun, too, at least when they come from arena decks ;)
So I get lucky with an early arsenic and what does the deck do? It plays one Sundial per turn from the mark ???
And when it finally runs out it saves up for SoGs: brilliant.

I also noticed some strange AI behaviour when playing around with GotP/Nightmare. It's discarding choices are quite weird sometimes. At times it will only discard his own cards (wich deal no damage), other times it almost seems like a suicide rush.

CCYB vs Platinum League:
First of all, this deck had 6-0 stats before I fought it. I was expecting to meet a basic life rush and hoping for no early mitosis or dragons. We all know how CCYB works and I would need an early shield to win this!
(http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/1691/arenawin.jpg)
- The match started out with him playing 2 frogs on the first turn, I had a permafrost and Jade Shield in my opening hand!
- He quickly played a mitosis 2nd turn and frogs started to appea out of nowhere...
- I was VERY lucky with my quantum generation by towers (had no nova's) so I got my permafrost our 3-4th turn.
- I was possibly even more lucky with pretty much every creature freezing.
- It quickly looked like I wasn't going to make it though. He kept playing creatures and when I saw the Jade Dragon + mitosis appear I thought it was over.
- I didn't Quint my creatures to safe up for a possible fractal (didn't have fractal by that time yet, dunno why I wasted 3 quanta on my FFQ...)
- A wild AM appeared! That one card saved me teh turn after his 2nd Jade Dragon entered teh field.
- A last turn fractal won the match!

-I was grinding platinum with a voodoo doll deck and met a farm. He played nothing but pillars throughout the whole game and I decked out. :(
-Using the same voodoo doll deck, I was distracted and watching tv, and ended up decking out by drawing from a sundial when I could have won that turn.
-Playing against a mono aether using the same voodoo doll deck. Normally would have been an easy win, but turned out it had TUs. :'(
-Losing to a 1hp deck. This was not with the voodoo doll deck but with a modded JMZ bow. I somehow got quanta locked by pests, flying poseidon and BH and couldn't play a thing. Throughout that whole game, I couldn't play a single SN.
-Not actually just one match, but over a few different matches against Ghostmare the ai decided to nightmare my creatures because of his faildraws. ::)

Facing off against a Mindgate deck, me with a Mono-Gravity. AI pulls an early Lobo, almost ragequit material.
After sitting here watching the Lobo do its thing against my Otys, I then play my Amber Nymph and hope it doesn't get Lobo'd. It doesn't for a few turns, but then the AI gathers enough :aether to make her suffer. Now's where the fail ensues.
-AI Lobos the Nymph.
-AI Mindgates Overdrive. Uses Overdrive on the Nymph.
-AI proceeds to continue Loboing my Otys.
-AI Lobos the Nymph again when it reaches 1HP. Hurray for a 7 attack creature.
I'm beginning to think that saying artificial "intelligence" is being too generous.

Ever seen anyone build a platinum arena deck around Protect Artifact? And have twelve of them in play at once?
Ever beaten a protected Eternity by decking them out?
Behold, I give you... Dwerg!
(http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/8356/epicwint.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/840/epicwint.jpg/)
I laughed my ass off when I saw dwerg's arena card was PA. I wasn't laughing once he got protted mindgates and stole my permafrost and PAed that, too. Fortunately, I got a protted gravity shield early, and apparently that hoses everything in my deck except fireflies and nymphs, which were not drawn until late. I also didn't draw any of my six hourglasses for the first 30+ turns, which is probably why I still have a deck left at the end of all this! By the time the AI finally mindgated a firefly queen, and got a few flies on the board, I got a quinted oty and gobbled them up. It was a close thing between eating fireflies/queens/nymphs, having the oty freeze when attacking, and regenning hps lost from being hit, but I made it. Then the AI played Eternity and PAed it the same turn... I thought I was doomed, but I hoped that the AI would screw up due to double draws. Finally, once my own queen spat out enough fireflies, the AI playd a mindgated pandemonium, which meant it had room in its hand to draw 2 cards a turn, and it decked out a few turns later.
+1000 style points to dwerg for this deck 8) If a human had used it, it would have won.

(http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/3903/firedeath.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/828/firedeath.jpg/)
AI was playing a typical fire deck, only with death for bone wall and graveyard. (its oracle card was bone wall) My otyughs, before dying later, ate phoenixes, ashes, and brimstone eaters, and the graveyards filled its field with skeletons, preventing it from playing any more creatures! Permafrost shield kept me from being hurt by those. AI also had a lot of fahrenheits, but my pulverizers managed to destroy them all, though explosions eventually destroyed both my pulvies. Just as I was wondering how on earth I was going to break down a 30x+ bone wall, the AI played aflatoxin on the otyugh, giving me a field full of critters to knock the walls down pretty darned quick. The AI was also using fire lance (note its fire quanta is over 200!) but was too stupid to save up to keep two of them to kill me with; as soon as it drew one, it would zap me for a crapload of damage, which I would promptly heal with my shards.

Why hello there, rank #7 gold deck...
(http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/6425/pwndqa.jpg) (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/202/pwndqa.jpg/)
An early quinted nymph and PAed shield, plus shards, were enough to hold back the entire AIs army. My 2nd quint was late, so I didn't get the steam machine in play for awhile. The AI had a protected Eternity, and I figured that I'd need to kill him with a super Steam Machine before I decked out. However, the AI had other plans...
It played Animate Weapon. Now I'm thinking maybe eternity will freeze, and maybe I can sneak a win in. Then it plays Chaos Power on Eternity. Amusing, but not really relevant. Then next turn, I kid you not, it DEVOURS the Eternity with its otyugh!
Epic facepalm.

@dragonsdemesne: 2 pictures of deckouts with no eternity. You play a fat-deck, don't you? I would be interested to see the code ...Yeah, I use a 60 card deck. I'm used to Magic: The Gathering, where 60 card decks/4 max copies are the minimum size, so even this feels like h4x to me :p It's my FG farmer deck, but I found out that it does very well against gold league, so I've been trying to gather score from the arena the last few days.. Against platinum, it's a bit too slow to be very reliable, though nothing I've yet seen is reliable against platinum.
If you don't have purple nymphs, I was using improved antimatter and another pandemonium in those slots before I got them. If you have amber nymph, I'd use that, and if you have auburn nymph, I'd use that too, because it synergizes with gravity shield, and even your own otyugh, though that's a bit slow. Golden Nymph I'd consider as well if I had it.

Post by: dragonsdemesne on September 18, 2011, 04:38:41 am
This was a great match, very close. Lightning bolt killed one dragon, and pandemonium weakened another one so that an otyugh could start eating them, but it got siphon lifed after eating 3 dragons. As you can see, this deck had a lot of steals, which was very annoying. I didn't see anything but dragons, steals, siphon lifes, and one octopus. It was still pretty epic, though.

This guy had a well-designed but simple deck. Graboids, shriekers, basilisk bloods for control, and stoneskins for stall. The only problem? He forgot to change his mark to time. The funny thing was his record was still 3-2 before this. (3-3 now)

I decided to try a different deck out; it's still in the tweaking stages, but it's pretty fun. This particular game, I got two +5 chaos powers out on turn 2 on my elite wyrm, and spent a few turns diving for 30 until earthquakes wrecked all my towers. A little thing like 'absolutely zero frickin quanta for the rest of the game' didn't stop me from winning though...

Oraclebows

(http://imageplay.net/img/m7Gbd227838/omnom1.png)or Devtals
(http://imageplay.net/img/m7Gbd227840/omnom3.png)are definitely better than Scarabs!
After that I lost due to not drawing my Scarabs D=

And for the record it was me laughing at scarabs in the #1 spot. I laughed harder this morning though, seeing Rember atop platinum league at 74-1 with Fate Egg.
Come to think of it, I think it was Rember who made the top with Scarab, too. I bet it was the same supernova deck except for those five cards :p

1) I was using a Destroyer and decked out
2) He sadly won the coin toss and played 2 SoDs the first turn
3) Skull Buckler haxed through my Phoenixes like no tomorrow, managed to get 1 Destroyer to 39/23 though
4) His Oracle card was SHOCKWAVE (And he used an Oraclebow)
5) He managed to get all 12 SoDs by the time I decked out
6) He used 2 Miracles
7) He had 9 SoGs by the time I decked

Thanks, it's working better then the original?I don't know if it is better. It is more my style. It has a bit more control and a bit less atk power: +1 Rewind, +1 Oty, +1 Bloodsucker, +1 Pulvi, +1Deflag, +1 crusader, -1 steal, -1 graboid, -1 charger, -1 BH, -1 archangel, -1 hourglass. I really think the bloodsucker is a must.
Here an example of it taking a EQ/RW grabodeck down (the double effect poison/fire buckler killed all graboids)

Steam Machine. Spanks firestall every time :) Love that 15hp. This deck was 31-0 and rank 10 in gold. I've never understood what the big fuss over firestall is, when immorush is so much stronger. However, since I know there are people who hate firestall (a lot of people!) I'm sure they will be happy to see one with a good record have its butt handed to it on a silver platter.

Agreed, thats absolutely terrible to imagine happening. Also, you mean 22 RoL's up, you probably had upgraded hope but counted as if it was unupped. Although I wonder why you didn't have SoG's if you were playing against a mindgate buff deck.I was using a Rol/Hope. Opponent used a Buff-bow with TU's and wait for it..

I actually had deckout in mind as the winning condition for this, with a couple of dragons thrown in, just in case the opponent had no CC. I'm glad you had some "fun" with it! :p Well, even though I didn't actually make the post, I think I should have a shot at winning on page 6, not only for making a deck that could win by squid damage, but specially for not skipping flood as my oracle card! :P

I thought flooding would work well to help stalling along with the squids, but for some odd reason the AI almost never plays it, even though there are 10 in the deck (I played against myself a couple of times and saw it only once). I guess even the AI doesn't like flooding :/Haha, indeed, and I totally uderstand that. :P
Post by: dragonsdemesne on October 09, 2011, 05:02:41 pm
One of the things I likeabout rainbow control is that it takes more skill to play than any other deck due to the fact that more play choices are available. In this game, the AI was using a catapult deck, and it got an excellent start. I was about to lose the game, but fortunately I'm 1337 and made the unusual play of quinting my -opponent's- only creature in play at the time, so that it could not be catapulted at me to kill me. That decision ultimately won the game, as I was able to stabilize with gravity shield and pulverizer.
Also note my max hp; this deck was packing SoVs :D Sadly I didn't win one.

i was thinking someone is trolling as he writes in chat "a farm for shards is up in plat arena".
so i play this game like a week or so, do some card / deck combo testing, take discord as my first weap then read lobo or pulvi or even eternity would have been better for the first farmers etc.
well i won a shard of sacrifice and a morning glory and eternity through no land or umbah stompy with 1 more deflag in platin arena to some 100ish hp deck
(while trying to find this shard farm ^^ realized that 3 games not sooo hard to win with fire rush)
even beat some deck with 170ish hp and got a 12 hitter next. riiight 12 life.. what can go wrong
(http://img695.imageshack.us/img695/6982/fail1qr.png)
at this point i had started with some photons and immo and a lava golem and enemy is down to 5. golem gets ice bolted photon probably too or shockwaved.
all of the sudden this Bonewall turn up with 2 virus next next round and just to mock me with an Arsenic so it s at 5 life again
(http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/4935/fail2e.png)
needless to say every other golem / forest spirit / lycan i draw gets infected, bonewall grows. i take 2 shards of then my critters die and bonewall grows..

I had a great draw and started getting damage going quickly. His AI then started failing immensely by chaining SoSa's (multiple a turn...) and lightning'ed (his oracle card was lightning) my stoneskin Gargoyle about 4 times (check his HP...). Even then though, his SoD's just kept adding HP while SoSa healed back for a bit. When the SoSa chain broke I played my creatures and tried to rush.
Even more lightnigns followed by another chain of SoSa's broke my offense while his Morning Glory ate away my HP. Talking about eating HP btw... There were 3 SoV there during the entire match doing what they do best, the only reason I stayed alive was my wings shield.
The outcome was clear. I ended up with about 6 HP and my wings down. Morning Glory one shotted me. You wonder what that Leaf Dragon's doing there? That's just a little SoSe randomness....

Post by: dragonsdemesne on October 21, 2011, 05:21:12 am
This was one of the weirdest decks I have ever played against. (card was light nymph) It had, as far as I can tell, no damage sources besides nymphs and morning glory, and was probably intended to deck the opponent out. (but then why the morning glory?) On turn 2, it played Solar Shield, and I'm thinking, okay, that makes sense to fuel the nymphs I know it has at least 10 of. Then on turn 3 it plays Sanctuary, and I'm going... wtf? Sanc+solar shield, in the same deck?
I quickly start laying the smack down with a huge Steam Machine, and then the AI spams three Shards of Sacrifice. Now I'm *really* going wtf, because then the sancs start hurting it, and it actually starts doing things like activating light nymphs to deal 10 damage to itself, and playing shards of divinity to take damage. My steam machine was already so big by the time the SoSas were down that I just kept pumping the darn thing up for when they finally wore off; I didn't care if I was healing him more because he was just sitting at max hp anyway, despite the damage from his own healing.
A Precognition I got off of a Shard of Serendipity showed me a hand full of miracles, but with all the SoSa spam, it never got the quanta to play them by the time it needed them.
The weird stuff I have in play, like the catapult, was from SoSe, and stuff like solar shield and sosas in hand were from mindgate. The quinted steam machine got a blessing from SoSe, hence the 18hp. On the last turn, you can't see it, but I actually catapulted an Elite Armagio that a SoSe also kindly gave me, which is why, if you were bored enough to do the math, you'd find it didn't all add up.
The funniest thing is, despite the mind-boggling antisynergy of the entire deck (the reason I decided not to include the player's name in the screenshot; not sure if this deck is genius or insanity :p Its record was I think 4-2 before this) is that I started to get worried that I was going to get decked out, so for the last dozen or so turns I didn't use my hourglasses at all.
edit: because even fewer people are likely to care what's on my desktop than what happened in my arena game :p
Post by: dragonsdemesne on October 22, 2011, 08:06:44 am
Forest spirits were a good choice in this opponent's speedbow, since they don't really suffer much from being unupgraded. However, using Thunderbolt (the oracle card) and Rewind in the same AI deck doesn't work very well, because it plays thunderbolt on something and then rewinds it. It was fairly close all the way, and I would have actually lost the game, except that on the last turn the AI decided to Thunderbolt one of my creatures instead of me.
The damselfly, graveyard, and dissipation field were from shard of serendipity. I seem to get dissipation field far too often from that card, and it's dead useless with sanctuary in my deck :p

After a veeery slow start....6 turns without a pillar and explosions in every pillar I tried to play...I lost while the arena deck had 1hp.

Now my favourite card. nothing from spin though cos i was serching for new shards instead of going for the 2/3 lobo :P

I just had a funny game against theonlyrealbeef's deck. He had NINE upped marks of darkness in play, and was playing flying poseidons in dark/water, with no earth quanta. I was mindgating his steals and marks and had a nice pile of them myself :) Then I was keeping him alive by antimattering and devouring my own creatures so I could get more marks, just for the lulz. Then I accidentally killed him because I didn't count damage, so I lost the screenshot opportunity, and THEN I accidentally skipped my rare spin because I didn't realize it was my 3rd platinum ring.I just faced him too, (0-2 now btw lol)

At first I was like, ok this is RR, he sucks hard, free win.
Then I was like, mito-physalia, you kidding me? What a retard.
And THEN I was like, Empathic Bonds? Dude you're starting to annoy me...
Okay then I was like wtf, I'm not gonna win this, at least he doesn't have SoP... Oh there we go!

No, I didn't play Fractal. But the AI was nice enough to Nightmare its Devourer, allowing me to spam the field with Devs and lock it down instead of the other way around. To add icing to the cake, I Pulvy'd all of its Pillars to remove all hope of winning.

Well hey, at least its more than any non-em win. And wow, how many Protect Artifacts do you run? Actually 3 or more, or are those just from a SoSe? I was just musing to myself that nobody would ever put 3+ Protect Artifacts in a deck, even in a defensive control rainbow.3 in that deck. I did use a SoSe that game, apparently an upped and unupped one; the sky blitz, spider, and stiletto are not in my deck.

But, thank you Eternity, for keeping me in this incredibly long battle. It reminds me of the time I tried to do 1000 score on Z-Rox.
Also, thank you Shards of Void, for making his Miracle much more acceptable.

Annyoing game, he drawed mindgate first, so he raped me so I became a Shit Elemental :'(
Anyways Mindgate is a top card, slow but awesome. Maybe new defenses as shard of sacrifice help to sustain, with sundials it's 18 turns of almost peace except for those 6 turns of sundial where weapons or steals/destroys can denial sundial.
Post by: mesaprotector on November 04, 2011, 04:28:35 am
Turn 15 comes along. By now we both have plenty of damage on the board. He's used a (mindgated) miracle to keep himself alive, and so have I. I have a second miracle in my hand, but nowhere near enough :light quanta to use it before he kills me.
Then he mindgates Solar Shield.
Thanks to all of the RoLs he put out for no good reason earlier, I now have enough quanta to use it and save myself, but I still won't be able to kill him quickly enough thanks to his own solar shield.
Turn 17: the guy mindgates two Butterfly Effects. I think I'm done, but for some reason he plays both of them leaving him with too little :entropy to get rid of my shield, and I have 5 HP left.
Then I play my own BE, destroy his shield, and kill him.

It breaks through my cat supported bonewall after a good bit of effort, although I've got lots of vamping and two PC cards in my hand and am about to play through to finish it off and thusly win my third wheel spin.Well, a destroy mutant would do too :P

Yes it would, but the reason I mentioned thinking Steal was that I was a bit depressed about it and only thinking steal since steal was the card I was going to use that was blocked by silence.

I'm playing OTK (the QT version) vs. mono black packed with SoVs and pests. No PC means I'm quickly down to 1 hp and the field is flooded with vapire/gargoyle/pest combination. My hourglasses are barely keeping my dim shields from being stolen and me being killed in the process. Silurian dragon is hiding deep in the deck so I can't do much till I draw the exactly last card. Quick look at the quanta pool and a sad face. Pests sucked all but the bare minimum to pull off the trick. Opponent has 200 hp so the sky blitz + 4 SoRs will be necessary to seal the deal and I have 9 air quanta (unupped blitz, duh)...
Aaaand the impossible happens, 4 shards go down touching all but the air pool. /Trollface and the sweetest EM this month :)

Playing vs. :darkness :death deck with some random SoSe rainbow.
Kinda slow start + opponent starts with arsenic + double deathstalker backed up with nightfall in the opening hand. I'm deploying Oty + Maxwell, but the poison counter already shows 21 with 22 hp to go. My turn! Without much hope I put down the bonewall and eat the vampires. Now the only problem left is the poison... 1hp left, yup... Drawing SoSe sparks some hope. Boom, I get the purify! Muhahaha /trollface.
I'm sitting on 1hp but behind 11-charge bone wall and an army on the field. Eat that AI.

I got a 2nd turn PAed Sanc, and a quinted nymph a few turns later. The PAed Pulvy came shortly after that. I didn't get any of my 6 hourglasses or any of my damage sources in the top half of my deck, so I just sat there stalling, and stalling, and stalling... By the time I saw my first Steam Machine, I decided, screw it, I'm going to try and deck out ghostmare! :P I almost made it... :'(

Early sanc made all the difference, as his card was black hole. Apparently he didn't think PC was that important. He got one explosion off, and I think one steal, and had one on the topdeck (the ones in hand I mindgated on the last turn) Gravity shield kept most of his critters away, and since his tiny bit of PC went all to hourglasses, it survived even without PA. Pulvy took out all his towers and hourglasses. I lightning bolted anything that got past gravity shield.
Post by: Elite arbiter on December 31, 2011, 08:46:53 am
My opposing AI is playing a deja-vu mass buff rush deck. I get a bad hand at first insofar as I don't have Arsenic in my opening hand, so I only have 3 deadly poisons to chip 9 hp a turn away. My Beefy opponent has ~170 hp. This is gonna take a while.
The game plays very simply, and I believe that its going to be a clean sweep, although the arsenic issue is keeping me worried. It doesn't look like this deck will give me any curveballs though, how could it? Its a simple deck that depends on pure rush capacity. So it keeps playing its entropy and time quanta, and after a bit has 2 12 ATK Deja's, a unsplit momentum deja, and a regular unsplit deja. I'm at about 100-110 hp, so I figure that I'll take one more turn to get my hp lower, and then throw out SoSa.
Well as it turns out this deck has a surprise in store for me. Until now it had about 6-7 cards in its hand, which I wasn't paying any attention to, and the little attention I devoted to them was of the "oh its just focused on low quanta and not caring about burning all its cards instantly, weird for a rush deck but meh" variety. However on this turn it plays 3 Supernova, and 5 buff cards, I know at least 1 blessing, at least 1 Rage Pot, and at least 1 Chaos Power, and duplicates the deja's on the field, skyrocketing its damage output far up. I wasn't paying attention to the actual numbers since the buffs were coming on so quickly and it was part-randomized, but the yellow health indication was grim. Therefore...
I survive with 44 HP. After a moment to contemplate what just happened, I proceed to laugh and take SoSa to the bank.
... 4 turns later, it still has a huge buffer of hp, I'm running dry on SoSa, and still no Arsenic. Or Deadly Poisons for that matter. And its still got a huge balloon of hp, over 100. I'm getting worried now, but after a long battle of it getting me down, me keeping up SoSa's, and eventually getting my arsenic when the opponent had under 90 hp and I had 11-12 cards left in the deck, and good fortune in the last few turns, it ends in a crushing defeat.
(http://i.imgur.com/097HG.png)
Boy, 220 Hp EM's are tasty.
I also notice that this was the first match for the deck, and since there's a mark switch to light, I wonder what deck he has now...

I was against a damageless deckout deck with at least 4 miracles (AI used 4 in one game) I was thinking 'fuuuu, omg when is this gonna end'. Finally after the 100+ poison counters and 2 cards from decking out, I win.

As they keep spamming SoSac, though, my HP keeps getting chipped away to poison despite my enormous Bone Wall. I forgot that the Vampire Dagger I was using to keep myself alive is no longer there. I hit 14 HP with 13 poison counters, I have absolutely no healing, and the opponent still has 16 HP and two turns left on their SoSac (and three poison counters, due to my Deadly Poison earlier). Hoping for a miracle, I dump my hand of useless-against-SoSac cards and play the last SoSe I had saved up... and pull Antimatter and Sky Blitz. (And a Pendulum.) I improved-mutate my 8/17 Otyugh into a Dune Scorpion with 2 :time : Hatch, and hatch it for a 12-ATK Ice Dragon.
Trololol.

No screenies, but I remember going up against a ghostmare with instosis. I ended up discarding instosis combo cards and instead use my :time quanta to play down nightmare'd ghosts, and I even mitosisreadied a ghost.When I was up against a ghostmare with sosac neurotoxin, I simply discarded ghosts while on Sosa to heal myself when AI didn't have 20 dmg on the field.
Post by: TheonlyrealBeef on March 06, 2012, 06:06:11 am
Surprise, surprise, it instantly got stolen. Luckily, that and Eclipse were the only things the deck could even pay for up to now so I went ahead and went to bide away some time, soon I got my first Sanct up for some reliable healing and to prevent those Pests from eating all of my quanta. Vamps were soon tearing a hole through my defenses though, but I drew Inundation and Dragons and Vampires were dying all over the place (that's right, Inundation saved my life! ;)). Of course, that one Sanctuary wasn't going to cut it, I regularly drew Sundials to stall a bit, got a Quinted Otyugh, Pa-ed Eternity early and got a second Sanct, but I had to use my Stone Skins to keep myself alive while the Otyugh had to nom Pests and Vampires one by one before it got to the size at which it could eat that Obsidian Dragon. In the end, I finally drew my second Bone Wall and another Hourglass. Albeit the Hourglass instantly got stolen that Bone Wall sealed the opponents' fate. Getting a Quinted Mitosis Gnome and a BE made things that much easier. Unfortunately, that big fat Otyugh and my Eternity easily beat the opponent afterwards, before I could even draw all my Stone Skins or heal to full health :(

@ TORB : I would be quite interested by your deck. Do you care to share?Rather low on QTs, but deck can't get fatter. Expect regular discards, depending on what your opponents' deck is (quint for CC-less decks etc.).Jade Shield has helped tons against Bolt Stalls and decks with a lot of immaterial creatures, or when you simply can't draw Bone Wall yet. Added it after getting bolted to death by an empty field regularly.
Inundation kills an extreme amount of creatures and then some, useful because it's hard/impossible to get a quinted Otyugh fast enough to deny a platinum deck that spams creatures before there are over 5. Used to have 2 in it, but always ended up discarding the first.Deck is easily customizable though, but don't remove more QTs ;)

I've been testing it unmodified, and although not all of the cards are upped, most of them are so I think I can comment. (Not upped: 2 Cats, 6 Granite Skins, 1 Inundation, 1 Sanctuary, 1 Rewind)@ TORB : I would be quite interested by your deck. Do you care to share?Rather low on QTs, but deck can't get fatter. Expect regular discards, depending on what your opponents' deck is (quint for CC-less decks etc.).Jade Shield has helped tons against Bolt Stalls and decks with a lot of immaterial creatures, or when you simply can't draw Bone Wall yet.

Used to have 2 in it, but always ended up discarding the first.Deck is easily customizable though, but don't remove more QTs ;)
I don't think it sets up fast enough. Against most decks it gets wtfpwned by creatures/poison before it can accumulate 5 :death, if it even draws Bone Wall in time. Almost all decks pack CC, so you can't really afford to play Otyugh without Quintessence, and Otyugh is needed to slow down the damage output (though Sanctuaries and Jade Shield help with that, I rarely draw enough Sanctuaries to make a difference and have the quanta to play them. Sundial is excellent and usually necessary but takes away :light).
I've often found myself wanting more Protect Artifacts. There are enough PC decks in the Arena that it's worth having more even with the disadvantage against PC-less decks.Not sure what to take out, though. Also, more Quintessence/Otyugh would be nice, given the importance of quinted Otyugh.
I won two games out of 20, one by decking out (not fun against a 120-card deck) and one by brute-forcing through Miracles with a massive Otyugh. Maybe I'm playing the deck wrong? Games usually go:
-Towers, Jade Shield ASAP
-Purify ASAP, or wait if the opponent might have poison
-Wait to bait PC on towers (does not work against Steal/repeatable PC), then Sanctuaries/Hourglasses
-When about to die, Bone Wall and/or Sundials (earlier if against Bolts), Inundation if all PC depleted or I have higher-priority PC bait
-Gnome Gemfinder/Mitosis/Quint ASAP, generated Gnome/Butterfly Effect/Quint ASAP, Otyugh/Quint ASAP, PA'd Eternity when I have enough quanta even after supporting Hourglasses
The problem being, PC might not be depleted before I'm close to death. Also, a lot of the critical combos in the deck are exactly that- combos- which don't work well with fat decks, despite the stall this deck can muster.

Me: Rainbow Control with Mindgate
Result: A lot of very large steam machines, a near-lockdown with amber nymphs, and a very large voodoo doll about to be eaten by an even larger otyugh.

Little bit of additional info:
-At least 2 Purifies had been played this game.
-My 5th Deadly Poison had been the 2nd to last card in my deck. After I saw the remaining amount of HP my opponent had, I laughed to myself and thought just how completely unbelievable it would be if I drew another Deadly Poison on my last turn. It was too late at night for me to keep track of what I'd drawn unfortunately.
-My 6th Deadly Poison was the last card in my deck. I couldn't believe that I had managed an exact HP win on top of drawing the exact card I needed on my last turn.
872 electrum and an upgraded Miracle to boot. Quite rewarding all in all indeed.

First match I tried it I had never even tested the deck and instantly faced the #1 mono Darkness deck in plat, so I thought I'd get slaughtered, was built to counter SoSac decks primarily :P
Luck would have it opponent had a bad start, mine was pretty good (apparently xD). For once those usually annoying Steals and pests actually slowed my opponent down rather than me, allowing me to get in damage earlier.
Despite the Vampire and Eclipse I was fast enough with my damage to outrush this mono Darkness \o/(http://imageplay.net/img/tya22260856/wadurr.png)
For the short duration that SoSac decks are still everywhere you can try the deck out yourself :p
Post by: dragonsdemesne on April 13, 2012, 01:15:49 pm
#4 ranked platinum deck, water mark puffer fish. I'm thinking SoSa, physalia, death stuff. Nope, monowater, with SoD since it had 72hp base. With a buttload of purify. Against SPlat. I'm getting that sinking feeling inside... I win anyway and walk away with 1260 electrum. I didn't count but I think it played about 6-7 purify that game.

This guy's deck was nothing but a shard farm, with nightmares. (I have 6 precogs in the deck) He nightmared my shard of focus (!!) and then my deja vu from SoSe. The only thing funnier than that was that Cless' farm deck actually had a win, even though it has no win condition other than SoV/nightmare.

I had a SN QT rainbow deck.
He had first turn, played some towers.
I played 3 QT, no SN.
He used earthquake and Black Hole --> I'm left with no quanta.
Didn't draw any QT for some time and when I did he destroyed it immediately (steal, explosion etc.)
He also played Discord.
Anyway... I had no chance to ever play a SN. For the whole game my quanta has been drained and he never played a Devourer.
So he slowly started spamming his creatures and finished me off without me giving any damage.
Most humiliating loss I ever had but it was sensational to see ^^

Tower Shield Oracle card
Post by: Calindu on May 13, 2012, 12:13:19 pm
It had Skull Shield as oracle card, and I managed a first turn flying staff with momentum on it.
I was at 9 hp before I managed to get a adrenaline+TU combo going, then topdecked a sundial to get back on full hp.
The 3rd TU was lovely, making my damage and healing much much faster.
In the end double sundial to secure EM.
Yes, the arena deck had SoSac, but Ai doesn't know to play good against adrenaline, so 3 staffs that can do 36 damage per turn weren't counted as more than 9 damage.

Don't let nightmares in a Mono darkness, Ai sucks with those.
Wolfunit was rank 5 at that moment, with 60/6 record.
The match started bad, 8 towers and no quanta to play my discord, suddenly dusk shield and my first SoFo got killed.
Then something good happened: Ai nightmared pests, began to play those and started to deny.
One of the Gargoyles died from a GPull(SoSe <33) and the other one was guarded every single turn by my mutated Anubis.
Then another nightmare on Pests and I lockdowned him.
The 3rd nightmare on Anubis gave me enough damage to make me win.

This deck kept spamming congeals and SoD. Despite a miracle, a squid, and some other damage, I won straight through it.
Post by: Holokausti on July 03, 2012, 08:36:24 am
Opponent's field was quickly filled with 16 RoL's and my damage output was then nullified. I Mindgated a RoL and a Hope for myself too so I wasn't in danger of dying but I was still doing 0 damage. Got Pharaoh from SoSe about mid game and was stuck @ 8 Time quanta for a few turns until I could play it. I Mindgated a couple of Fractals and got some serious Scarab action on. I Devoured with all my might but the Fractaled RoL's seemed endless, more and more just were summoned as I battled them.
I was going to deck-out but I managed to cut down the fields of RoL with my Scarabs down from 13 to 3 on my second to last turn. My Scarabs had gained quite a lot of attack already due to all the devouring but still the 3 damage reducing Hope was about to ruin my game. I was missing only 7~ dmg on my last turn, but I could devour some of my own RoL's and make some room for more Scarabs. I won by exact damage in the end, 23 turns later. Glad I didn't use that Hourglass of mine :)

Things were going, well, pretty obviously poorly. I managed, however, to kill 2/3 SoFo's I saw before they could get past 1HP. Bonewalls helped me stall. I actually got knocked down to 1HP and tossed up my last shield. And then the AI goofed. It generated a singularity. And the singularities healed me up and kept me going. And the AI didn't use it's Druids to mutate the singularities. I thought maybe, just maybe I might win. With 0 cards in my deck, the AI finished itself off and gave me an EM. And that's how I won my first Platinum Arena match tonight.

He plays Aether Pillars/Towers. I'm thinking "wtf is he doing?", but I play on. Play a few cards, including a Spider and a Wings, and then he goes. And he plays Psions. And more Psions. Then upped Psions. I'm sitting here, Webbing them, hoping to draw my Mind Flayer...
But I don't. At least, not in time. He TUs my Lava Golem (doesn't matter; have Wings), and then my turn. Seven HP left, with just not enough damage to kill him.

Not shown: SoSa Spam, Sky Blitz turn before to crash through past the SoSa barrier, early SoBra spam being nulled by the Sanc that would have otherwise decked me, MVP Hero-Class SoFo's taking out all the SoV's before they were protected early on and giving me two Black Holes to drain ~70 life, SoSe's giving me cards to properly respond, like the Solar Shield it stole from me, (Aresnic it played itself). Fun that in even the best possible situation without rolling a Purify at any point, I still only barely win by such a small amount.
Winnings.

Ghostmare. Normally I can stomp on them with the Mummy/Rewind/SoR, but I got a slow start.
Started out fine, managing to get my Pharaoh out, along with a couple SoR before the first GotP, which made the AI Nightmare my Pharaoh. Easy win once my hand is full of Pharaohs. But then the AI started pumping out Ghosts, and played a few Vampire Daggers. Being an idiot, I accidentally discarded the Ghosts which got Nightmared (thankfully 1 at a time!) into my hand. Ended up coming down to hoping against hope that the AI wouldn't play another Nightmare... and there's the result.

Monodark with pests and vampires against poison dials. I still managed to win, even though that's usually a hard counter to it, and I got an EM with 3 SoDs :p The deck was 30-0 and rank 3 before I ran into it :)

Using my UNUPPED and RARELESS anti-Morte deck...
I had a pet virus, but I think it's still epic :p (oh, and because I blew up everything with gases... the deck was eclipse with deathstalker, vampire, pest, and lots of deadly poisons and some steals)

That's VDB against a Gravity/Darkness deck with Nightmares.Exactly. I TU'd opponent's Overdrived Pest, had SoPa out, so it've build up the damage and stayed alive. His own pest died long time ago, because of Overdrive. He Nightmared SoFo and I had enough :gravity quanta to play 2 of them, 3rd one is TU'd. I love winning with VDB like that :D
Btw, Overdrived Pests are pretty nice idea imo.

Decides to discard 2 of his own Ghosts.
Decides to play Nightmare on my Damselflies. Oh look enough quanta to play my Air Nymph.
Decides to play Nightmare on my Air Nymphs.

Chaining 4 Sosac (the moment the first Sofo came out) to prevent AI from playing more deadly SoFo is the way to go baby ;D

Playing with PDials 34 in platinum I stumbled upon an air deck with a splash of water. On turn 3, I had to play my first Sundial, which to my surprise was immediately countered by a Shard of Patience (and also Wings). I could not allow the opponent to destroy his shard, needed a fortunate draw, had to play Sundials and then 4 Shards of Sacrifice in a row, no opponent weapon, taking 40 damage from each SoSac, finding a new Shard of Divinity just in time, always fearing a Purify. While the pressure from the opponent became simply ridiculous, even a 500 HP deck would be trembling after 12 turns of this Shard of Patience. Imagine he has a Sky Blitz in hand, he'd be close to dealing out 1000 points of damage in one turn.

The Ai played them.

The game probably went on for 6-7 turns, as you can see the player has 16 cards remaining in his deck. He only drew 2 quantum towers during those turns, 1 of which got stolen. He ended up unable to play any creatures against a 1-hp opponent.

Oh... Thanks for the explanation... Your deductive reasoning is quite well...
