If you guys lost that much to False Gods, you clearly don't know how to play the deck. lol

Don't bash my deck just because YOU don't know what you're doing.
Saying that the people who do actually try your deck don't know how to play elements. These are seasoned veterans.

The better version

http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,31747.0.html
Way too much :entropy too late when it's not needed. No defense (bone walls). No :gravity, and no chimera, which is good against others' shields. That deck is much slower than mine at rushing, and can't stall. Why is this better? lol
No need to laugh at decks that have already been tweaked to near maximum speed and ownageness. Again, why do you hate players that are good at this game?

Eh, Mummies are good cards by themselves. Drawing one without an RT is not useless. It's a big part of the deck.

And something you failed to realize about my other deck, you don't need/get more than 1 or 2 pharoahs. Period. See, I thought :time was SO useless, I took out ALL my Time Factories. I bet that really irks you.

And I'm not going back on my claim of 85% win rate. You're not going to believe anything I say anyway, so I might as well leave it there for the people who DO listen and ignore all you haters who just keep bashing me because I apparently figured out a deck better than you can.
When people say your deck could be improved... Say they don't know how to play elements either :) Also, keep claiming the impossible when seasoned veterans have failed to get near it.

I'm not the one acting hateful. I was trying to be nice, and share my deck with everyone. I'd accept constructive critcism but not a bunch of sarcastic "Oh, you're lying so who cares and shut up.". Seriously, grow up. If you don't have the time to use my deck yourself, then don't waste your time posting about it either. Just move on and let other people use it if they like.
You do not deserve special treatment. You deserve what everyone else gets: Our help. We don't post telling you how to make your deck better to piss you off, we do it to help you. If you can't take the fact that your deck might not be perfect, then don't bother posting.

Since I have nothing better to do over Autumn Break, I'll try as many games with this as I can, hopefully 10+ for each god and 300+ total. 85% is such an imposing number in this situation, it's natural for people to be skeptical.
Do I need to suggest the obvious?  ;)

No, because I use the 4000 until you get around to modifying the realtec for Excel :)

My sole goal is to look for win rate. If it's viable enough people will go all-out with testing anyways.

It's already obvious that it's not, plus the deck can be improved.

I still rarely lose with this, lol. If It can be improved, I'd love to know how.

Well, posting actual proof that it has an 85% winrate against false gods could work as "improvement". What you're doing is equivalent walking into a science conference, proclaiming that you have a cure for aids, and when people ask you what it is you give them some homebrewed mixture of over-the-counter medicines. And when they ask you for the proof that you've actually gotten results you just say...

"If you guys had that many failed trials, you clearly don't know how to mix the pharmaceuticals, hahaha. Don't bash my cure just because you don't know what you're doing."

So its understandable how people who have played extensively will get a little bit annoyed when you take that attitude with them.


Also, did a few test runs with False Gods.
Osiris: Loss Kept rewinding my creatures and delaying my production against procrastination until he got the better scarab swarm-nothing that I could have done here.
Miracle: Loss Got up a swarm with turn 2 Scarabs, but he has Morning Glory, and a FFQ buffed up to 12/16. Got a clutch bonewall and kept it alive with eating while I wore Miracle down. But the AI was smart and waited until it had enough creatures to kill my bonewall in a single shot. True to namesake, Miracle played 3 Miracles to stay alive until I lost.
Neptune: Win Neptune depended a lot on CC, but my swarms were enough to withstand it, and he couldn't surmount my bonewall. Thus, Victory.
Serket: Loss Got field dominance pretty easily and was ready to devour all the things, but then Cloak happened. Clutch Bonewall, but not enough to save me from 13 poison damage and probably a bunch of adrenascorps from Life Nymph.
Firefly Queen: Win Got field dominance quickly, and FFQ doesn't have effective means to do anything if she loses field control.
So slightly better than I expected from the previous results of 0/9, but still nowhere near the results 85% win would suggest. The deck is basically at 2/14 right now.

...And the people who believed in my cure for AIDS would take the medicine and benefit from it, while the rest suffered. Their loss; not mine.

You can't expect me to not "take an attitude with you" if you all just BASH BASH BASH me from your first post.

There's the problem. Nobody claimed that 85% to be true. Actually, seasoned veterans tried it and lost far further than that 15%. When they said that, you just answered that they "don't know how to use it". Well, use it, bring the proof and enlighten us on how to use it, because right now your "cure" hasn't cured anyone.
