6th Trials - Proving Your Worthiness (Submission Topic)

[n00b]

Task I - Complete

Spoiler for Task I:

Remade Card #1: Pandemic | Epidemic

Spoiler for Original Card:

NAME: Pandemic ELEMENT: Death COST: 4 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Target creature gains two poison. Creatures in the target's field have a chance to gain one poison per turn.	NAME: Epidemic ELEMENT: Death COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Target creature gains two poison. Creatures in target's field have a chance to gain one poison per turn.

ART: None currently IDEA: n00b NOTES: This is what I think should replace Plague|Improved Plague. Pretty straightforward, whatever you target will get two poison counters and every creature in their field will have a 1/4 chance to get poisoned, and they can be poisoned only once per turn, though it is possible for them to get poisoned on consecutive turns. This status would last until the card first infected with Pandemic leaves the field. Pandemic is not as much of a status effect as it is a type of poison counter. Just like Aflatoxin, the only way to get rid of this status without the creature leaving the field is to use purify. The creature cannot infect itself. Lore:  This is the story of tragedy, and is not for the faint of heart. This tells of a disease so vile, so evil that it had never really gone away. This plague, this Pandemic spread through towns of the Elementalists like wildfire. Not even the mighty Guardian Angels could protect against its effects for long. Not even the fortitudinous Armagios, with all of their bulk, could withstand this devastating disease. It shot through the villages long ago, killing hundreds if not thousands, until it disappeared, thought to be wiped out. They were wrong, this Pandemic did not get wiped out, and it's coming back... SERIES: 6th Trials Task I

Card #2: Degrade | Degrade

NAME: Erraticism ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Reduce all creatures' attack by the amount they are poisoned for. Does not stack.	NAME: Degrade ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Reduce all creatures' attack by the amount they are poisoned for. Does not stack.

ART: None currently IDEA: n00b NOTES: A pretty straightforward card that places more emphasis on the darkness/death duo. This card reduces attack by the amount of poison on the card, and Purify does nothing (will not increase the attack). Affects all creatures who are poisoned. Works well with Pandemic simply because, as that is able to add poison counters to any creatures on whichever side the card is used on, Degrade will lower their attack, which would be good for you (the user).

In fast grinding of AI3, what is the most irritating thing? Shields and CC that slow down one's speed. Shields? Honey chargers laugh at that! Packing 7|5 stats and momentum, these are great creatures for packing on the beat upon the opponent. Their 5hp puts them out of nearly all CC range besides lightning, and even then, chaos power has got it covered. With an average of a +3/+3 buff, a 10|8 momentum creature is nearly unstoppable. What's that? You're worried about other types of control? Worry not, for I have that covered as well! Twin Universe! A brilliant way to double the buffs and double the pain!

Conclusions: RNG is too troll D: Either way, this deck was designed as a counter to all those pesky shields and rush stoppers in AI3, but it seems I got paired up with the annoying RT/sundials one twice, and the earth/gravy one that BB'd everything too. It's not the fastest AI3 grinder out there, but I can say that it's very fun and reliable.

I originally planned to make a PA+wings+recluse deck, but found that too awkward. That's when I realized i could approach it from another angle. Death is a very powerful element for rushing, with perhaps the most efficient rusher (Flesh Recluse), and the ability to add poison to bypass shields. What better way to combine those two aspects of death? Flying arsenics and recluses! Of course, just like that, the deck might not be able to catch up to the accelerated quanta of HBs, so that's where BB comes in. BB is able to shut down a pesky enemy for 6 turns, long enough that you'll probably never see a creature get out of it. This deck is pretty fast, getting 7-8 TTW vs HBs. It's also quite thematic! Will you use the power of air to fly your arsenic or the power of earth to drag down your opponent to a halt?

The one that is many. A writhing pack of demons twisting and turning in the depths of the night. Individually, each demon is weak, but together, they form an incomprehensible strength. Hellfire seems to breathe from it as its destructive prowess seem to multiply over time...

We have fractal devourers, why not a slower but safer way to go? Mitosis and bonds allows for more stability and defense. Devourers and bloodsuckers are immensely cheap creatures that deal massive damage under eclipse. The triple fire mark is enough to fuel the control in the deck. Rains of fire keep creatures at bay while explosions keep pesky permanents away.

Flooding can be useful! Use flooding and squids to lock down opponent. Sancts and miracles to heal up. Sundials are there if you need a one turn stall, and eternity is for deckout. Who said water had no synergy with light and time besides tears?

SoW is the biggest buff in the game. What works great with attack buffs? Peggy does! Quint protects fragile Peggy and allows it to receive SoW buffs and dive for much more damage. Alternatively, Quint+SoW can be used upon enemy creatures if the user has a mirror shield up, letting SoW have both an offensive and defensive purpose in this deck.
Shards are way too specialized. Hard to make a unique deck with shards.

Task 3 Completed!

Spoiler for Task 3:

Spoiler for In development:

Spoiler for Explaination:

It seems that a general consensus agrees that , , , and are the weaker elements. Why are they the weaker elements? They lack solid PC. In a game where shields are powerful and control is rampant, not having half of the control greatly cripples your element.

Tumult: Tumult is an air card that allows the user to steal a permanent in exchange for one of the user's own. This is softer PC than explosion, but fits into 's theme of flowing freely. This also allows for + synergies with Enchant Artifact, and even permanentless rushes that need some cheap PC.

Wave: Water is soft and calm, but unchecked, it can even weather away mountains. This PC card fits that theme exactly. The opponent can choose to save their permanent for a quanta cost, or let it get destroyed. This simple yet effective card brings along a whole new level of strategy into the game.

Junk Wall: Gravity's weight shield is awkward at best, and useless at worst. Such a defensive element doesn't boast much defenses for the user. Junk Wall is like a permanent version of Bone Wall, and it allows for new synergies with gravity duos because of the new PC introduced.

Essence of Nature: Life's soft PC card allows for one extra damage of the strongest creature in spell damage form. This card allows to bypass shields like wings and dimensional shield that might have once shut down life decks completely. This essentially fits into the mid-range hitter value for life, letting life take a stronger stand instead of its cheap creature spams. More spell damage will also help contribute to reflective shields being a part of the meta.

Task II - Deckbuilding

Spoiler for The decks:

First off, my groups will be  / / / (randomized). This is because I believe that a decent deckbuilder should be able to take any elements and make a suitable deck out of them. I'm also trying to stay away from simply splashing in cards off of the mark, and particularly trying to avoid Animate Weapon, Sundial, etc. because those defeat the purpose of having a trio.

Spoiler for A trio deck that can reliably defeat Half-Bloods:

749 749 749 75m 75m 75m 75m 75m 778 778 778 778 778 778 77d 77d 77d 77d 77d 77d 77g 77g 77g 77g 77g 7qa 7qa 7qa 7qa 7qa 8ps

The deck is deceptively strong. A 10-game test against Half-Bloods went 8-2, for a preliminary 80% winrate. This should fall well within "reliable" for farming purposes.

The strategy is simple. Play a scarab along with a Heavy Armor, which should then take care of most opposing creatures. Gravity Shield, a very underused and underrated card, provides nice support for this, taking care of any creatures that your scarabs can't handle. Finally, the graboids provide some much-needed offense to the deck. The deck can set up quite quickly, with a buffed scarab coming out by turn 2 the norm. The deck will work semi-unupped, but the heavy armors really need to remain upped or the scarabs won't have enough nomming power.

Scarabs are quicker to get out than Otyugh, and the additional HP of otyugh becomes largely irrelevant due to Gravity Shield.

Spoiler for A trio deck that is ideal to farm AI3:

As far as I know, this deck is the first of its kind. FFQ/Hope is too mainstream, so I went with this. The strategy is simple - Play a crusader, epi it, and endow the Owl's Eye.

Endowed crusader hits the sweet spot of 8, which when paired with adrenaline attacks for a total of 17 damage. Additionally, it gains the snipe skill, which takes care of most opposing creature threats. A 15-game sample went 14-1, with the 1 loss being due to drawing 0 crusaders in half the deck, and barely losing anyway due to a sundial at the end.

3 Owl's Eyes should be sufficient, since they aren't 100% necessary for the deck to run. Even if you happen to not draw them early, an adrenalined sader still does 12 damage, which is usually fast enough to defeat most AI3 decks, or at least do enough damage to remain competitive until your OE shows up. Obviously, your toughest opponent should be the Aether elder, if it ever learns that a dimensional shield should take priority over an Immortal, with the Time/Light elder also being annoying due to RT (though that deck is really too slow to consistantly beat this).

This deck looks a little crazy, but keep in mind that FGs have 3x mark and double draw. The strategy is to first fractal a Pest if possible, otherwise fractalling a Deathstalker. The deck should take apart Instosis due to quanta control and poison, stand a good chance against poisondials due to the Vampires and early Pests, and do well against most other FG farmers by virtue of its adaptability. Poison is really very strong against most FG farmers, and quanta control helps a lot against those that can't be outdamaged by poison.

10-0 against AI3. Strategy is relatively simple. Normally you want to play your first NT on a water pillar/pend, spawning a Water Nymph that can eventually turn all of your pillars into nymphs. Diss shield provides time to get set up. By the time you are running at all low on Entropy quanta, you should have killed most of the opponent's creatures with a Fire Nymph. Any other big threats can be AMed or raged.

The 2 explosions usually are sufficient, considering the lack of troublesome permanents against this deck (which is mostly limited to lobo). Since the deck has plenty of time due to being able to clear the field, you have time to wait for that explosion to take out a shield or such.

A fun situation that I encountered was buffing two opposing colossal dragons to 19|2 then AMing them for EM

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Small sacred island ELEMENT:  COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each of you're creature is now resting in the sacred island and may decide each turn to attack or not.	NAME: Small sacred island ELEMENT: COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each of you're creature is now resting in the sacred island and may decide each turn to attack or not.

ART: mrpaper IDEA: mrpaper NOTES: This card is meant to replace flooding since it is so rarly useful in decks.  I opted for a card that would bring many options.  Though it can be a dead card just like enchant artifact is when facing no pc decks, it can be a game changing card.  For one, if 1  of you're creatures gets an anti-matter on it, you will stop attacking with it (anti-matter still does an effect but only half of what the opponent wishes).  It works also if you are afraid of some shields while waiting for some pc to come.  Last but not least, it counters shard of sacrifice perfectly! SERIES: trials #6

Lore:  Since the beginning of times, creatures of all sorts have fought for all the good and bad reasons without any break hopelessy wishing to rule the world.  That was all true until some come into a mysterious island that felt like a relief.  Of course the killer instinct come back once in a while to go at war, but right after, they come to the island again for that peaceful feeling.

New card:

NAME: Rock solid ELEMENT: Earth COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each of you're creature that didn't do damage or poisoned the opponent gets +0/+1 each turn.	NAME: Rock solid ELEMENT: Earth COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each of you're creature that didn't do damage or poisoned the opponent gets +0/+1 each turn.

ART: mrpaper IDEA: mrpaper NOTES: I thought of this card as a combo with the sacred island since water feeds earth but there ain't enough combo between those 2 elements and trident si not enough powerful to build only  an earth/water duo around this card alone.  The combo with water could make you wait to attack if you face a fire shield for exemple and decide to wait before attacking, this way you gain +0/+1 and might wanna attack the next turn.  It is thought also  to make tiny creatures more resistant to cc.  I'm particularely thinking of wardens who will end up really hard to kill in the long run and they can be really annoying because of that which is the exact purpose of it!  One special rule needs to be done on it, it is that it doesn't affect creatures with devour ability because otyugh would become overpowered with this combo.

- Ferox's deck updated with shard of Gratitude


The Trials
   

• A new feature involving a series of tests
• The tests can be repeated if needed
• The trial will contain fixed decks
• The trial will be available in normal and hard mode.

           - Normal mode will be meant for the average player
           - Hard mode will feature restrictions on what can be used to complete the trial.
                  - Restrictions will change between each test of the trial.
                  - An example restriction would be: no more than half upgraded cards.
   

• Completion of the trial will allow you to gain extra quanta of your mark and 5 hp whenever a target card is played.
• Hard mode will be +1 quanta of your mark (on top of the normal mode amount) and 2 additional hp.

           - This target card is chosen by you at the end of the trial.
           - Pillars, Pendulums, and their upgraded versions cannot be targetted.
           - nova, immolation, and other quanta generators are fair game.
   

• Completing the trials more than once will grant a moderate electrum reward as well as the chance to choose another target card.
• The onus will be on you to figure out the decks of the trials AI.
• Trials tests may have more than 1 possible deck that you will face.

           - It will be a choice of whether or not you wish to completely counter one deck and leave yourself possibly vulnerable to another, or be more well-rounded.
           - The decks you face in these tests may change if you decide to rechallenge.



Reverse mode

• Will show up as an option when you have defeated a FG
• This mode will be in quests under Trials
• When activated, any cards that you have upgraded will become unupgraded and any cards that are unupgraded will become upgraded b

           - Rewards will change based on how many upgraded cards you have in your deck (Fewer upgraded cards in your deck during reverse mode increase your rewards)
           - There will be an unupgraded mode available for Reverse mode, where you can choose to have all your cards unupgraded.

• When activated, the AI decks change too

           - False gods become the easiest decks to face, with the lowest reward for winning.
                   - False god decks become unupgraded, 1x mark, 50 hp
           - Half blood decks become 25% upgraded, 2x mark, 100 hp
           - AI 3 decks become 50% upgraded, 1.5 draw,(see half-blood changes) 2x mark, 150 hp
           - AI 2 decks become 75% upgraded, double draw, 3x mark, 200 hp, 2 time use of a random piece of CC as a special ability for free
                   - The random cards in AI 2 decks will be randomized with bias toward the elements which have pillars, with Quantum pillars replacing some of the random cards for reliability
           - AI 1 decks become 100% upgraded, double draw, 4x mark, 200 hp, 3 time use of a random piece of CC or PC as a special ability for free (special logic for usage)
                   - The random cards in AI 1 decks will be randomized with greater bias toward the elements which have pillars, with Quantum pillars replacing some of the random cards for reliability.
                   - Discards can be double that of normal if the hand is full.
                   - The randomized cards will guarantee at least some spells and creatures.
           - AI 0 decks become 100% upgraded, triple draw, 5x mark, 250 hp, 5 time use of a random card as a special ability for free (special logic for usage)
                   - AI 0 start with +7 quanta of all elements. This quanta cannot be black holed, but will be used up first by the AI.
                   - The random cards in AI 0 decks will be randomized with almost complete bias toward the elements which have pillars, with the elements/pillars being generated first. Quantum pillars will be included for greater reliability.
                   - Discarding capacity will be double that of normal if the hand is full, maximum hand size will be 10
                   - Creatures and spells will be randomized at at minimum and maximum set rate to make sure there is damage and utility
                   - AI 0 will be resistant to deckout; when their decks are exhausted, the empty deck is refilled with a second copy of their deck.
                           - When the second copy of the deck is loaded, AI 0 max hp starts decaying at a rate of 4 per turn to make it easier to defeat.

Spoiler for Card 1:

NAME: Wind Spirit ELEMENT: Air COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2 | 2 TEXT: Airborne. Gains +1 | +1 for every two airborne creatures you have in play.	NAME: Wind Scion ELEMENT: Air COST: 2 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2 | 2 TEXT: Airborne. Gains +1 | +1 for every two airborne creatures you have in play.

ART: vrt IDEA: Zblader NOTES: Lore: Pain. Those were my last moments as the last wyrm of my species. Believe or not, the last war had hunted us down to extinction. We came close, to be honest. Gave our lives in hopes of overcoming the Fire Elementals for once. All for nothing. I was the last Wyrm taken by General Jenkar into battle, flying against a Time Element who held a legendary Blade of Virtue. Whether it be by fate – or a curse – the blade struck my wing, and Jenkar leaped to the Sky Dragons before I could even bite an accursed Devonian Dragon’s flesh. I’d been limping for who knows how long. That battle… it opened up time portals all over the area, thanks to that “Zso_Zso’s” attempts to fast forward and rewind to undo his mistakes. I crawled into one…. And found myself in the future, with the Aether elementals holding the trophy of victory over their hands. And then… I was impaled. By a figure in the darkness, a man with a black cloak. I left my body, but found myself denied to Death. Something…. a void…. blocked me. Months passed. I haunted the world, without purpose, without others to comfort me. I found other spirits, but none resembled my form. No elemental could see me…. Except for this girl. A woman, with a longsword and a yellow dress with purple markings. I took her to be a Light elemental that communed with Death, but as I approached her she began to glow an eerie pink. As if on whim, she quickly glanced up, and began to speak. “Would you like a purpose once more?” And I accepted. We have parted ways, but I have found ways to communicate with and aid my remaining comrades. The time will come again when I and the rest of Air can soar proudly, even without their bodies. The remnant of the last Wyrm, who guides the souls of Air away from the land of dead. These souls are trained into an elite fighting force that work through comradeship and alliances. Where one is present, except the rest nearby, led by a giant winged beast that emits a roar of pride. Card being replaced : Wyrm | Elite Wyrm. A card that can become a quick rusher, or a giant menace saved for a last Skyblitz kill when your opponent thinks you don't quite have enough oomph. Wind Spirit counts itself in it's 'growth' ability and rounds down when an odd number of creatures are on the field. While it may seem below par compared to cards like Abyss Frog and Crawler, playing a full airborne deck will quickly  strengthen it, especially if you're taking advantage of SoFree and Air's favoring of rushing or massive damage. As the Lore indicates, the first Wind Spirit was a dead Wyrm with a sense of unity and pride. He retains his attack-live 'Dive' in the form of being able to draw from the communal strength of his airkin, and teaches his fellow spirits to do the same. SERIES: Trials 6 -  Part I, Submission I

Spoiler for Card 2:

NAME: Twister ELEMENT: Air COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Delay target nonpillar permanent for 3 turns. Recast this spell for every 5 attack your creatures have total.	NAME: Tornado ELEMENT: Air COST: 2 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Delay target nonpillar permanent for 3 turns. Recast this spell for every 5 attack your creatures have total.

ART: Zblader IDEA: Zblader NOTES: A PC card that encourages you to swarm the field with large amounts of creatures - perfect for an Air rush that includes creatures such as Wind Spirit, who gain attack as you deploy creatures.  Also contains further synergy with ATK-boosting cards outside of Air, such as Blessing, Rage Potion, and Chaos Power. Recast versions of the card target the enemy field randomly. Delayed cards simply fail to function but will not lose any time counters if they are present. Antimatter counts as 0 when taken into consideration by this card. In contrast to Delayed weapons, playing a new shield over a delayed shield removes the delay effect, even if the shields are identical. SERIES: Trials 6 -  Part I, Submission I

Controlled Shard Golem

Note : Using 3 or more SoV's in a Shard Golem summon will get you a Shard Golem with the 'Voodoo' ability as a passive. The idea is to stack Rage Pots on Golems that have Vampire + Voodoo  and Liquid Shadow on Golems that don't have Vampire. Both Liquid Shadow and Rage Potion double as control if you're facing a rush or creature-heavy deck.

TASK III - Complete
Building the Game

Spoiler for Elements v1.40:

New Cards

Spoiler for 13 Desires Cycle:

13 Desires Cycle 
A little something for each element (and Other) to add more strategic depth.
  Spellstone | Spellstone - Allows for more variable spell decks, especially in cases where current decks would work more effectively with more copies of a certain spell. (E.g. Bolts.) You can play practically using cards like Lightning/Poison, or you can have some fun trying to replicate 'creative' cards like Shard of Serendipity and Parallel Universe + Mutation.
  Essence Wyrm | Essence Wyvern - Mass protection for cards that forces your opponent to think twice before he uses PC or CC - is he helping you out by destroying your cards?
  Obscure | Obscurantism - An unorthodox method of control for Darkness that relies entirely on the enemy player. Great for mindgaming and forcing a player to pay attention (and maybe use a little math while he's at it.)
  Dirty Needle | Dirty Needle - Shall I help you, or shall I hurt you? An innovative Healing / CC card that can easily shift purpose depending on the situation, from healing an Armagio to rendering HP gain useless with Shard of Void.
  Guardian | Protector - Makes placement of creatures more important in the ETG game - the only 'placement' card in ETG so far is Flooding, and it's really more of a denial card than than one that makes you think "what creature should I play next?"  With Guardian, however, the field changes from a passive element on the board to an important factor in being AntiCC for your creatures.
  Yoink! | Yoink! The 'troll' card of the group that can also participate in milling - sure, you can use this in a Mindgate deck to steal cards faster or speed up deckout in a stall, but the real kicker comes from stealing an enemy Silurian in Instosis.
  Searing Pact | Blazing Pact - Ready to Rush or do a Massive Damage OTK? This card is for you - the double-edge damage of the card really gives the feel of aggression Fire revels in and is great when used with Phoenix or Seraph. Upgraded takes things up a notch and makes your opponent's creature take extra damage if your assault fails.
  Compact Guard | Focus Buckle A handy card that can double as a quick shield or an Anti-Rainbow/Stall PC - order up your damage sources correctly, and your opponent will find himself with a dead card in place of a Dimensional Shield or his Nova's quanta being focused into a useless pool.
  Vine Beast | Entangling Beast While the forest can give, it can also take away - Life lacks a serious midhitter in between Cockatrice and Emerald Dragon, as well as any PC that allows it to deal with pesky shields. This beast of a treant not only resolves both problems but can also give players unorthodox ways of manipulating enemy cards to ensure your opponent cannot disrupt your beatdown, such as Quinting an Entangled creature.
  Halo | Halo - A quick quantum-fixing card that essentially allows any element to synergize with , allowing you to access more expensive cards (double Fractal, anyone?) or quickly play a certain copy of a card more to get the most out of a duo 'split' of quantum producers. Timed well, it can turn an unplayable hand into a game changing one.
  Mending Pocketwatch | Mending Pocketwatch - Drops a threat onto the field that your opponent should attempt to nullify quickly - if not, he'll find you as healthy as you were a few turns before. If you're not willing to draw cards from your own deck or if your deck's hitting zero, force your opponent to draw with Shard of Bravery instead. A nice buffer to any stall that holds its own ground with self-protection.
  Cymothoa | Cymothoa - A tricky rush-stopper that can quickly lower your opponent's life if he's not paying attention. As an added bonus, Cymothoa can also conspire with Flooding to lockdown the enemy field in mono , meaning your opponent should get rid of them before it's too late - for a damage price, of course.
  Dichromatic Butterfly | Trichromatic Butterfly - A useful quantum producer that can help balance out trios and duos if used correctly. Great for getting the extra quanta needed on a bad pillar draw to support more expensive cards.

Quests Updated:
The following quests are available for you in the 'Quests' panel.
Fight a False God - Fight a False God. A predetermined False God deck is chosen and you fight it with 2x Draw, 3x Mark, 200 HP (in other words, this stays the same.)

Daily Quest - Daily quest is split up into two tasks - an 'Easy' task designed for simplicity and a 'Hard' task for veterans who want a challenge.
Daily Quest - Easy - A basic requirement is given for you to defeat a certain opponent under certain conditions, such as 'Defeat 10 AI3s with 50% Light cards in your deck."
Valid enemy targets include:

• AI3
• Arena : Bronze/Silver

Requirements can picked from one of the following:

• Use 50% of target card in deck.
• Use 6 copies of X card in battle.
• Use <element>.
• Use <element> Mark.
• Do NOT use <element> or <card>.
• Use ONLY <element>.

Daily Quest - Hard - A basic requirement is given for you to defeat a certain opponent under certain conditions, such as 'Defeat 10 AI3s with 50% Light cards in your deck."
Valid enemy targets include:

• Half Blood
• False God
• Arena : Gold/Platinum

Requirements can picked from one of the following in addition to the easy requirements:

• Do NOT use <element> or <card>.
• Use <element> and <element>.
• Use 6 copies of X card and Y card in battle.

Completing each Daily quest nets you a reward (1 for Easy, 1 for Hard). Reward for Easy quests consist of 1 random nonrare card and 200-300 electrum (about 300-400 electrum total). Reward for Hard quests consist of 1 random rare OR 1 upgraded nonrare card and 300-400 electrum. (about 1100-1600 total - in other words, slightly more/less than an upgrade.)

True God Combat (Credit to plastique for Original Idea)
True Gods can be challenged once every 4 False God victories in a row.
Depending on the God, he/she will start with one or two of the following 'boons' in addition to normal FG rules.

• 5x Mark instead of 3x Mark
• 1 Quanta Pool filled with 20 Quantum.
• 3x Draw instead of 2x Draw.
• Refill Hand per turn instead of 2x Draw, but has 100 HP.
• Starts with a random immaterial permanent and 1x Mark.
• Starts with a weapon and shield.
• Starts with two weapon/shield slots.

So, why are True Gods worth fighting? They can provide the following rewards from a 3-spins reel (upgraded cards by default):

• Stronger 'AI-Only' versions of upgraded cards (similar to 'third upgrades' - for balancing, however, they cannot be used in PvP1 or PvP2.)
• Upgraded cards with either foil art or extra flavor text.
• 'Items' - When you win items, you can set them to automatically appear in your next fight and give you an advantage (such as 2x Mark, 200 HP, Double Draw, Start with Weapon, etc...). These items are usually limited to 1-3 uses and are PvP1-2 banned.
• 'Platinum' Cards - Upgraded cards with a unique border that are worth 3 times as much as their normal value. Don't like the card you won? Sell it and use it for some upgrades you actually need.
• Double Spin - If you don't want special rewards and just normal cards, there will be an option called 'Double Spin'. Clicking this warns you that you will not get any of the special rewards listed above but will allowed you to spin up to 6 times for upgraded cards. Spin bonus of matching up the first two images is also doubled.

All PvP1-2 banned rewards are still allowed in casual PvP for those looking for a twist to their PvP event or a challenge in a duel.

Game, Card, and Balance Changes

Spoiler for Hidden:

Game
PvP1 fixed - abusable glitches removed and matches do not bug out anymore.
  Aether
Immortal's cost lowered to 5 | 6  .
  Air
Wyrm's Dive Cost lowered from      to    .
Thunderstorm delays all enemy permanents for 1 turn.
  Death
Skeleton now generates  per turn in addition to being undead.
Plague can now target either player's side. ("Target player's creatures are infected. Removes invisibility." Great as an emergency death trigger if needed.)
  Earth
Burrowed Antlions gain Momentum.
Gnome Gemfinder now has the additional ability " - Sacrifice this card to generate  ."
Graboid now enters unburrowed but can be burrowed for :earth on the turn it is played to gain :time Evolve (Evolve can be used on the same turn as Burrow.)
  Gravity
Graviton Mercenary (unupped) lowers cost to 3 and gets the ability " : Smash : Target weapon or shard is delayed for 1 turn." (See here for reasoning.)
Graviton Guard (upped) raises cost to 3 and gets the ability " : Smash : Target nonpillar nonshield permanent is delayed for 1 turn."
Massive Dragon HP raised from 15 to 50 and 30 to 75 respectively (that's 33 and 42 HP per normal Catapult - however, increased damage is balanced out by being more expensive than Titan or Armagio.)
  Life
Thorn Carapace cost lowered to 6 | 6
Light
Holy Flash becomes "Generate 4 and delay target creature for 2 turns."
Hope (upgraded) cost lowered to 7 .
  Time
Fate Egg gives the creature it hatches into whatever buffs it received (e.g. if Fate Egg with +3 | +3 from Blessing and Immortal hatches, the hatched card gains +3 | +3 and Immortal in addition to normal stats.)
Rewind refund the owner of the rewinded creatures half of its cost, rounded down. (Half instead of full to prevent possible Graboid/Shrieker abuse and to make a rewinded Shrieker's refund = the cost of one burrowed Graboid. Refund also tones down the card advantage you gain over your opponent.)
Procastination | Turtle Shield stops weapon damage every other turn. (Conclusion drawn from this thread. Delaying a weapon damage is considered to be less important than delaying a weapon ability, and it seems logical that Procastination | Turtle Shield block weapons in a manner similar to Dusk Mantle | Improved Dusk.)
  Water
Blue Crawler gains +1 | +1 if you have more than 5 quanta or is in a Flooded space. (encourages Boltdecking and gives the impression of 'submerging' the little guy for a bonus.)
Freeze can now target permanents.
Ulitharid cost lowered to 2 .
Trident ability 'Tsunami' changed to 3  - Destroy up to 3 permanents in target stack. (Increases usability against certain cards like Shards and Bonewall. Also removes the need to errata the card every time a new 'pillar or pendulum'-type card is produced.)
  Other
Shard of Readiness creatures damage you for 3 HP for each use you make on the 'double use' turn. ("The target creature's skill cost is now zero. :time creatures can use their skill twice this turn for 3HP each use. " Weakens SoR spam slightly and inspired by the saying "Haste is waste.")
Shard of Focus is now "3 : Accretion: Destroy a permanent, lose another permanent, and gains +0/+10. Becomes Black Hole if HP>30." (Prevents SoFo from being near-broken in early game, and gives it a smaller but still usable HP-boost.)

For some reason, the elemental icons broke midway through my post and I had to use an img tag to get around it. Not exactly sure what happened there.

TASK I

Spoiler for task 1:

Remade Card #1: Blessed Soil | Blessed Soil

Spoiler for Original Card:

NAME: Blessed Soil ELEMENT: Earth COST: 1 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All the burrowed creatures gain +1|+1.	NAME: Blessed Soil ELEMENT: Earth COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All the burrowed creatures gain +2|+1.

ART: ARTHANASIOS IDEA: ARTHANASIOS NOTES: The art here is not of great quality, however I really like the ability of this card. This may be the buff Antlions so deeply deserve! The idea came with by looking at Nightfall|Eclipse and realising that this card, along with Flooding, are the only permanents which affect both sides of the field at the same time. Simultaneously, I though that burrowed creatures really need a buff. As a result, Blessing Soil was created.  Nightfall | Eclipse is a card which is considered both overpowered and underpowered, depending on your point of view. Many, including me, consider it slighly overpowered, since annoying creatures like Devourers and Vampires can become even more powerful and annoying with this card. On the other hand, Nighfall is considered underpowered in comparison with Shard of Patience, since SoP's capabilities are much greater.  Let's see how burrowed creatures are changed: *Antlion burrowed stats are 1|3, with Blessed Soil it becomes 2|4 (3|4 with upped Blessed Soil). *Elite Antlion burrowed stats are 2|4, with Blessed Soil it becomes 3|5 (4|5 with upped Blessed Soil). *Graboid burrowed stats are 2|3, with Blessed Soil it becomes 3|4 (4|4 with upped Blessed Soil). *Elite Graboid burrowed stats are 2|3, with Blessed Soil it becomes 3|4 (4|4 with upped Blessed Soil). *Shrieker burrowed stats are 4|3, with Blessed Soil it becomes 5|4 (6|4 with upped Blessed Soil). *Elite Shrieker burrowed stats are 5|4, with Blessed Soil it becomes 6|5 (7|5 with upped Blessed Soil). *Devourer burrowed stats are 0|2, with Blessed Soil it becomes 1|3 (2|3 with upped Blessed Soil). *Pest burrowed stats are 0|4, with Blessed Soil it becomes 1|5 (2|5 with upped Blessed Soil). Lore:  Several Elementals loyal to perform luminescent rituals with Photons into various places in order to act as wards against their opponents, especially the and entities. After a long period of time, the quantum energy from these rituals is weakened, falls onto the soil and it is absorbed by it. As a result, slowly but steadily the soil becomes blessed. However, a simple passenger or even a powerful Elemental who walks on this soil doesn't recieve any type of blessing, but if a creature digs withing the ground, a positive energy will cover it for as long as it remains underground. Antlions and Graboids have learnt to detect Blessed Soils like these and use them in order to strike with greater force their opponents. Burrowed creatures will have their vengeance at last! SERIES: 6th Trials Task I

Card #2: Enchanted Roots | Animated Roots

NAME: Enchanted Roots ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2|2 TEXT: Enchanted Roots enter the game burrowed.   : Enchant Artifact.	NAME: Animated Roots ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 3|3 TEXT: Animated Roots enter the game burrowed.   : Protect Artifact.

ART: ARTHANASIOS IDEA: ARTHANASIOS NOTES: and are considered allied elements, so they need more synergy between them. This card helps by offering a CC-resistant creature with a PC-resistant ability and also strengthens Life-Earth synergy with an excellent Blessed Soil/Roots combo! *Enchanted Roots burrowed stats are 2|2, become 3|3 with Blessed Soil (4|3 with upped Blessed Soil). *Animated Roots burrowed stats are 3|3, become 4|4 with Blessed Soil (5|4 with upped Blessed Soil). {The Enchant Artifact and Protect Artifact activated abilities work like the respective Enchant artifact | Protect Artifact spell.} Lore:  The Wise Druids needed a loyal guardian to protect their sacred forests from unwelcomed guests. Because of this, by calling the blessing of Ferox, they brought life to the roots of the surrounding trees in order to acts as the guardians of their sectets. Those Enchanted and Animated Roots are always hidden beneath the ground and they surface only to strike intruders, whose presence they feel by tremorsense. They can also magically protect any secret druidic artifact which must not fall into evil hands... SERIES: 6th Trials Task I

Yeah, I know catatitans is not the most original kind of deck, but still catatitans are viewed mostly as PvP decks rather than AI3 farmers, which is sad given their power and speed. At an attempt of being a little more original, I have posted a half-upped/half-unupped version in which the BBs can be used like catatitan's buff or CC. Very fast, fun and effective AI3 grinder, though totally upped is much better.

TASK I

Spoiler for Task I, Replacement Card:

Spoiler for Original Card:

NAME: Stasis Shield ELEMENT: Time COST: 7 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Shield: creatures that damage you enters stasis for one turn.  : Target permanent enters stasis for one turn.	NAME: Stasis Field ELEMENT: Time COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Shield: creatures that damage you enters stasis for one turn.  : Target permanent enters stasis for one turn.

ART: kev; original free image here IDEA: kev NOTES: "Stasis" is just the one-turn delay mechanic already used by Procrastination/Turtle Shield.  If the permanent stack is targeted, only one card in the stack is effected. The impetuses for the change: - Procrastination/Turtle Shield is an underused card with spore art I don't care for and a God-awful name. - I thought it'd be cool to have a shield with an active ability. - I like the idea of a soft PC card that is versatile and adds to strategy use in-game. LORE: Having already mastered the ability to move the world's creatures through time, the greatest elementals across time sought to control the pillars of the world itself.  In a moment of unparalleled focus, the energies of these monolithic elementals brought forth a magnificent shield.  Magic of this nature had never before been witnessed, and those present knew with certainty it never again would.  Concern grew that the elementals had become too focused on the present at the expense of the future, where the shield's fate remains clouded.  Who would wield this shield?  And... for what purpose?

ART: kev; original free image here IDEA: kev NOTES: Immediately does one damage to all enemy creatures.  Also applies the wither condition to all enemy creatures and removes invisibility.  The withered condition is removed if the creature attacks; otherwise it deals one damage to the creature. Obvious synergies with Stasis Shield/Stasis Field (or Procrastination/Turtle Shield), Sundial/Sundial, Iridium Warden/Vanadium Warden, Freeze/Congeal, Arctic Squid/Arctic Octopus, Ice Shield/Permafrost Shield, and Ice Bolt/Ice Lance.  Not a real synergy with Basilisk Blood/Basilisk Blood or Auburn Nymph/Earth Nymph which both increase the target's health.

Spoiler for Lore:

Aether Elementalists have pulled from the energies of alternate universes for centuries. Bringing identical creatures across the void to fight against their enemies and casting an enemy's own spell against them are commonplace in the World of Elements. But recently, a new artifact was discovered. When activated, it allows the owner to temporarily cross universes in order to find a duplicate copy of one of his creatures, spells, or permanents. This newfound power can grant the Elementalist twice the attack power, twice the number of shields, or twice the quanta generation than was possible before. This world will never be the same than it was before the artifact "Duality" was discovered.

TASK I:

Spoiler for Fate Egg replacement (Lore in notes):

NAME: Sun Seed ELEMENT: Time COST: 1 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 2 TEXT: : Nourish Sun Seed gains +0/+2. If Sun Seed is targeted, heal yourself equal to Sun Seed's health.	NAME: Sun Seed ELEMENT: Time COST: 1 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 4 TEXT: : Nourish Sun Seed gains +0/+4. If Sun Seed is targeted, heal yourself equal to Sun Seed's health.

ART: alesia17 IDEA: Kuroaitou NOTES: The replacement for Fate Egg. Whereas the Egg is a wonderful creature for generating those magical comeback stories upon spawning a Crimson Dragon for the finishing blow, its randomness and high cost makes it a burden for many non-upped decks, and is mostly used for fun in PvP (no one uses it seriously at high-level PvE environments from arena to False Gods). If Sun Seed replaces the Fate Egg, players may seek to use it moreso than the Egg counterpart. As the Seed grows, it inversely becomes less favorable for the enemy to target it, while the owner will try to find ways to trigger its alternate effect. Although the unupped Seed has only 1 more HP than the Egg (making it somewhat vulnerable), the ability to gain health overtime (and gain benefits from said health via healing) will give it strong synergy with various buff cards (such from Momentum to Blessing), allow it to be an effective card-recycler (Eternity to prevent deck out), and also grant new strategies with situational or underused cards (Plate Armor, Purify, etc.). It's vital to note that the healing effect takes place BEFORE the targeting effect occurs (i.e. - CC, buff, etc.). This is to prevent a one-two combo of Sun Seed + Basilisk Blood (although multiple Basilisk Blood and Sun Seeds are a viable tactic, and Heal can do the job with fewer cards after the first Basilisk Blood is used on a Seed). The desert was merciless... but so were they. Unable to counter the forces of three nations, many Time elementals (warriors, templars, even sages) had fought desperately to keep their most-prized possessions from falling into the enemy's hands. The stealthy rogues of the Darkness kingdom had stolen a few hourglasses under the night sky, while the chaotic soldiers of the anarchistic Entropy lands were able mutate and destroy swarms of Scarabs and Dune Scorpions with ease. But the worst damage was invisible at first glance. The following week, a scholar took note of an egg that was slightly discolored during the raid; it cracked, then deteriorated into nothing more than smoke, leaving behind a faint smell of lost potential. Hundreds and thousands of eggs had died before, but millions were now decaying into plumes of despair - the offspring that could have been used to turn the tide of battle were gone. No prophet had foreseen this outcome, and their attempts to undo the curse were met with resistance... the plague that was spread by the Undead was irreversible, and for a while, the Time nation had fallen into a longing for what could have been saved. Regret. Shame. Frustration. Taking pity on them, a Life elemental had secretly planted a seed in a pile of shell pieces much later after the battle. Initially, the seed did not react, but eventually with the radiant sun, the seed began to take root and obtain nutrients and moisture from the sands... And as the cycle completes, life begins anew, of darkness to light... SERIES:

Spoiler for New Card:

NAME: Guardian Ent ELEMENT: Life COST: 2 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 6 TEXT: Invigorate:  The owner will increase their total HP's equal to the amount they heal themselves with.	NAME: Guardian Ent ELEMENT: Life COST: 1 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 9 TEXT: Invigorate:  The owner will increase their total HP's equal to the amount they heal themselves with.

ART: IDEA: Kuroaitou NOTES: Note that Invigorate is a passive ability. Invigorate does something simple that benefits all Life users (as well as all healing-junkies in generate): boost total health. While it may not seem as useful unless paired up with cards such as Heal or Empathic Bond, the underlying synergy it has with Sun Seed is surprisingly devious; when both the Sun Seed and Guardian Ent are both in play, the owner will target/utilize the seed to increase its total health accordingly until it gets to a respectable level. When the player is damaged, they need only to target the seed with anything (from buffs to non-lobotomized-based CC) to reap the healing benefits AND gain the total health jump. In addition, this new card serves as a reinforced bridge between the Light and Life elements aside from the typical Rustler/FFQ strategy, and can also benefit other elemental combinations as well ( Vampires, Antimatter, and even Purify from ).
