8th Trials - Challengers' Entrance - Battle Among Giants - Unupgraded


Special Rules
  • Upgraded cards, Discord, Earthquake, Immolation, Trident, Wings, Reverse Time, and shards are banned
  • All decks must include minimum 6 creatures that have a cost, attack, or health 10 or greater.
  • All decks must include maximum 6 creatures that have a cost, attack, or health 9 or less.
  • Minimum deck size is now 40.

IDEA:
Drake_XIV
NOTES:
What I feel Earth lacks that it could work with is creature control. That is to say direct and AoE.

This card fulfills both while giving further utility to Plate Armor and Earthquake. Plate Armor sees more use as it offers more protection since this spell hits both sides of the field. Earthquake can help clear pillar stacks to ensure that this spell deals more damage.

This card checks for the modifier on the pillar.
  • An Earth Pillar and an Earth Pendulum reduces damage by one.
  • An Earth Pillar and an Earth Tower reduces damage by one.
  • An Earth Pendulum and an Earth Mark reduces damage by one.
  • An Earth Pillar and an Air Pillar reduces damage by two.

This card can only deal a minimum of one damage to all creatures.

As per the War 7 rules, this deck can be used by any. Of course, higher ranks can substitute in upgrades to match their position.

There is no creature control.

There is no permanent control.

There are no creatures.

There are no weapons.

Just the Immortal.

Stalwart as the mountain. This is a phrase that can best be used in relevance to Immortal and variants of it, much like the one used above. The entire premise of this deck is not to win with force, but attrition. With a higher base deck size paired with the immense amount of healing and damage mitigation packed into it, players focus more on surviving the blows of their enemy as they watch their opponents lose via deck out.



The key components are:
  • Titanium Shield: This shield has the highest base damage reduction and, therefore, is the best form of stand-alone damage mitigation available in either Earth or Light. Upgrading it means even more reduction and even more turns gained from the deterred damage.
  • Miracle: Before any defenses are up, chances are that this deck will be brought dreadfully low. Or even after the walls are raised, there is sufficient damage to make even the sturdiest barricades tremble. Miracle is used here to bring you back to healthy amount so you may continue fighting without fighting. Significantly more potent after your max health is raised some more.
  • Stone Skin: After raising obscene amounts of Earth quanta, Stone Skin is helped to increase the max health while also giving a large burst of health in times where Miracle is just not available for use.
  • Sanctuary: Sanctuary helps protect your hand from the dreadful strategy of Ghostmare strategies. That aside, a good number of them are capable of producing enough healing to stave off danger each passing turn as these variants take their sweet time getting ready.


Some variants below tend to include a much larger portion dedicated to pillars in order to reach the quanta cap faster so that Stone Skin is more potent faster. Others include more Sanctuary instead, hoping that the passive healing will make up for the lack of quanta acceleration and buy more time to reach the quanta cap. Either of these variants have proven successful as, for Earth, this deck type has only lost once in recent Wars.

What can I say this deck is "61s", they should rename it to "The Great Wall of Elements". This is one of my favourite stalls, unlike other stalls that use CC and healing to stop opponent, this deck doesn't even take what the opponent has brought into consideration. Simple strategy, get a mountain of HP replenish it. Its like looking at your opponents cards and going, "try to move this mountain :P"

Enough rambling, this deck exploits elements that don't have a lot of burst damage and CC available during war events, which is most elements. And even if there is burst damage this deck needs a lot of QC and CC to completely shut it down. I have had the honour of facing this deck in war#7, I did a lot of damage but still got overpowered by its stall ability.

Apart from grabbow, this deck is a staple for any war general, placing it in the right match pretty much guarantees victory even if the player derps a bit.
