I made this for an Elemental Engineer's challenge, and realised that no 500hp em decks used SoV.
This was about to change.
This deck is fun, fast, cheap(ish), and efficient.

Fun: who doesn't like killing an opponent with a simple longsword? And getting a lot of :electrum for the effort?
Fast: with essentially 26 cards, and not relying on decking out, this deck can kill a lot faster than usual 500hp em decks.
Cheap: okay, so it has 30 upps, and 7 rares, but hear me out. Most 500hp em decks have 50 ups, and about 5 miracles, which (imo) are harder to come by than shards. Also, some of the cards in this are used in a lot of other upped decks, meaning they aren't just wasted upps on cards you otherwise wouldn't use.
Efficient: I haven't actually lost once (except when I clicked FG and Elidnis beat me down. NOT for >100hp opponents), and though not all of them were with 500hp, most of them were EMs, and I still gained a considerable amount of :electrum.


Disclaimer: I am not saying this is the best 500hp em deck out there. I'm just trying to convince you to give it a go.

Any comments?

Nice deck.
Additionally, you don't need to upgrade the sword.  ;)
Your opponent's max HP will reach 1, and a single soft attack will bring them to die.

Edit: Luciferase, too.

No :darkness mark or EA for the shards? I have a feeling that you won't get enough damage done.

Really nice idea. I have to agree with the need of  :darkness mark though. I tried it a couple of times at the trainer and it was just not fast enough.
In one of the games I ran into a stealer and he took all my shards! lol

I first tried with a darkness mark, but the quanta was too hard to balance. I usually find 5 SoVs is enough. However, a PA would not go amiss in this deck.
About the longsword, I prefer it because it can get through any damage-reducing shield. The luci doesn't need to be upped though.

5 SoVs is only 10 damage. 1 longsword is 6. You have 16 points of damage packed into a 30 card deck. Is that really enougH?

Holy Flash is much better and versatile than Luciferase in this deck. Luciferase costs 1 :rainbow, Holy Flash costs 0 :rainbow, Luciferase can heal you up to 10 hp, Holy Flash can heal you up to 10 hp OR deal 10 damage to a :darkness/ :death creature (though you will use it for EM most of time, it is always good to have an alternative use). ;)

Or using unupped luciferin.  Unupped holy flash costs 1 :light though, and cannot be used after miracle. Got 1500 :electrum!

Definitely needs EAs (I'd suggest 3 for earlier drawing).

Holy Flash is much better and versatile than Luciferase in this deck. Luciferase costs 1 :rainbow, Holy Flash costs 0 :rainbow, Luciferase can heal you up to 10 hp, Holy Flash can heal you up to 10 hp OR deal 10 damage to a :darkness/ :death creature (though you will use it for EM most of time, it is always good to have an alternative use). ;)

Holy Flash will seriously screw you over in tandem with auto-mulligan, especially since this deck only has 10 pillars.
