It's an idea (inspired by fire bolt OTK stalls) that I had some time ago, but now I found the way to implement it... I'm sure it can be 150% better if I overthink the idea, and hopefully it can become a successful FG grinder.

It needs some tweaking, but here is the basic idea:
- The combo For The Win (FTW) is Armagio+Overdrive+Unstoppable+Quintessence. It can skip unstoppable and quintescence with some gods, but it's generally better to complete the combo.
- One overdriven, unstoppable armagio can kill a non-healing FG in 11 turns. If not overdriven, it can still kill a non-healing, non-shielded FG in 11 turns. Will make stats for every shield soon.
- The Phase shields can hold on for 18 turns if chained (remember that chaining them with 18 cards not only can take you to 0 cards untouched, but it also increases the chances of drawing another shield).
- I'll definetly add 2-3 lobotomizers. Done, they are key against many gods

Why not use it on flying titans? (-2 armagios -2 unstoppable +2 titan +2 flying weapon)

I didn't like the combo, you need the 2 card combo (titan+AW) to be able to cast OD, while with armagios, you can have a OD'd armagio without momentum. I know I should try it, but I just hate Flying Titans, and as I said, in this cases Armagios can be better.

[Ares_]

If not overdriven, it will hit for one(or two, can't remember)... forever.

The other thing is, that with so few of each card, you will rarely hit the combo you require to make it a workable deck.
Have another look, and see if a more balanced version is viable...

Nice thought, but needs work. Call me out if I'm wrong, what do I know

[Jappert]

I think he meant, not momentumed instead of not overdriven.

Nice deck, I'd love to see the god-by-god breakdown!

[Ekki]

The other thing is, that with so few of each card, you will rarely hit the combo you require to make it a workable deck. the only draws that ruin this deck are those where both armagios or both ODs are in the last 10 cards of the deck, like what happens with CCYB (lava golems and perma shield, 2 copies of both), but the original version had 3 of each, so I'll try it again
Have another look, and see if a more balanced version is viable... definetly a more balanced version is viable

I'll see how I can improve it, but this weekend I'll be runing out of time, so I guess it'll be only if I'm lucky.
God-by-god will be very simple, since it's a simple deck

If you wanna completely change the direction this deck is going, take out phase shields and add in TUs.

Twin OD ftw

[Ekki]

Sounds awesome for a rush, or so... I'll try that someday for sure

I prefer the titans because then you don't need quints so you end up going

-2 armagios -2 unstoppable -2 quint +2 titan +2 flying weapon

which leaves room for 2 more shards

and a titan deals decent dmg even without od

Against FG's, quints are always essential... Rewinds, Freeze/Shockwave, Lobo and even TU can break your combo if you don't quint it. And I'm talking about half of the gods (actually more).

As I said, armagio can get OD without needing another card, but Titan MUST have animate weapon to work, and in your weapon slot it can be destroyed by some gods...

Won't work. *points at lobo's*
