From Boingo's spreed sheet, we have 3 Pillars and 9 Pendulums left after everyone's decks.  But I think Dragoon and thraexis need to replace ~6 Pendulums with Pillars in their decks.  They might like it, which is fine, I just don't want them to play a deck because they must.

If they prefer their decks like that, I will only switch 9 Pendulums into Pillars.
Honestly, what about the immortals--say 5 of them.  The are incredibly expensive 4 attack hitters that you can't fractal.
they are exactly half of a phase dragon.  half the cost, half the damage, unupgraded has half the health, upgraded has 1 more than half (compared to upped dragon).  in other words, immortals are smaller, faster dragons.  of course, this is just how i see it.

yes but then again its always more efficient to do an phase dragon and a pillar than two immortals. immortals are half as much as you said, but youre not getting the extra pillar

Let me put it another way

Imagine you have 6 aether this turn and will have 13 aether next turn.  You can play your immortal now and get 4 damage turn 1, 8 damage turn 2, 12 damage turn 3, ....

-or-

wait 1 turn to play phase dragon:  0 damage turn 1, 8 damage turn 2, 16 damage turn 3, ....

By the time you play the dragon, you broke even and every turn after that you are getting 4 extra damage/turn.
Bring back Holy Cow!

I don't like Phase Dragons really.  13 Quantum to do 8 damage but is Immaterial with 6 HP and Flying.  If it wasn't Immaterial and cost 10, I would use it.  Right now, the decks I play that have Dragons in them, most of the time the Dragon sits in my hand unless the deck is 50% Pillars, or I haven't played any cards in 3+ turns, or we are 2/3 through our decks.  I don't like any deck that has 2+ Aether Dragons for PvP unless you have great stalling/healing.

This is not the place to be debating about such a trivial matter.  Immortals will be used, just like the Dragons.  Likewise, by having so many Immortals, we can afford to discard them, if needed.
