The Essential Halfblood Farmer

[9jacob4]

this deck when i used it is seaned relly slow

because it is quite slow, it's a stall deck, hence the 18 turns of invulnrability...

oh ok thats why i didnt like it i like rush decks

I'm sorry if this is being repeated, but it seems to be impossible to defeat most decks because they have shields or steals that keep killing me. How should I counter that? I doesn't seem that my aether deck ever gets the momentum to actually defeat many halfbloods. (using the exact deck from p.1)

Shields are your big weakness, and in fact if you want to be a little risky, you can swap to Mark of Darkness and swap one of each critter for a Steal.  You'll deck out slightly more often (less damage dealing), but you won't have as much trouble with shields.  It's your call.

Thanks a ton.

I understand that decking-out is semi typical...but I thought I'd mention this: I just decked out with all of my monsters out and the AI had 2 hps left... It kind of sucked.

Somehow I'm surprised that this hasn't been renamed the QUINTessential Halfblood Farmer =P

Hmm, maybe add a lobomizer or 2 if you won it?

deffinately
2 is always better than one, mainly because you can draw it earlier so if you have 'em stick 'em in!

the extras I added to this deck were 2 Lobotomisers and 2 Shard of Gratitudes, this way a 34 deck may not deck out as much in Top50 as some decks are 30/31 card stallers and healers (e.g. 6 miracle, 6 holy flash, 6 heal, 6 stone skin, both healing shards etc.) you cannot win against but have to deck out and with 30 cards it is a 50/50 chance

also an early lobotomiser can be the difference between a win or a loss against some AI5 and False Gods, such as Osiris, without an early lobo you are going to get overwhelmed quite fast, also AI5 Vampires can be annoying without a lobo if you are unlucky to get a shield out...

if you are upgrading this deck make sure to add in SoGs first!! 2 of them make EMing a lot more frequent!!

Has anyone tested this deck upped yet?

Try it in Trainer

[TheForbiddenOracle]

Wow it's a miracle, I actually won an upped card from here

[TheIdioticIdiot]

15% of half bloods cards are upped
the chance of winning is about 3% or so, so it's not impossible, i remember when i first started with this deck (a long time ago), i won 3 upped cards in like 40 matches... made the RoL/hope deck in one night
