The main engine of the deck.  It does some damage, but mostly it causes the opponent to draw cards.

How the deck works:Mark is Fire
So this deck is all about decking out your opponent.  At first, I wanted my submission to be based on just my 2 card creations, but since it is a deck out deck it needs to be larger than average, so I went looking through the armory and forge for more.  Because it is based on decking out, reverse times are counterproductive, so I went with fire lances for creature control.  This gave another reason for using the Fire mark to power up the shard.  Your opponent's hand will be clogged a lot of the time, so be careful that you are drawing at a slower rate than they are if their deck is big.  You want to save the lances for when they are really necessary. Your shield will replenish with almost every card in play, but if opponent's hand fills up, that will slow down greatly, use the lances then.   Don't worry about the Ghost's dying early, you can make your opponent draw 36 cards with spells alone.

A very useful card, Spirit Tower gives you a :life quanta buff early in game in order to play the rest of your cards and it can also heals you if the situation is dire.

Caduceus Staff combines well with your :life mark for a great amount of damage and its healing ability is very useful upon your Sprites.

According to the situation, you can either create an extra Emerald Tower or Spirit Tower via this spell.

Forgotten Knight serves like an early hitter, a cheap CC and, most of all, like an Emerald Pillar upon his death. This extra quanta supply is vital for playing Alfars later...

Elite Morphing Shield serves as a versatile late-game supporting card. By paying 10 :life, you can either have a Spine Carapace or a Jade Shield.

Alfars are the basic hitters of this deck. Emerald Towers made by Forgotten Soldiers and Construct Towers comboes will make them cheap enough.

(http://i.imgur.com/gcqyw.png) (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,41383.0.html)Kev (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,41383.0.html)x6 copies
Sprites are re-usable PC creatures which can last forever if combined with Caudeus Staff's ability. Sprites take 1 damage when they use their ability, so Caduceus Staff heals this damage at once.

How the deck works: MARK OF LIFE
 Play your Spirit Towers on your first turn and, if you are really short in quanta, play a Construct Tower on them. Summon Forgotten Knights on your second turn and sacrifice then by destroying low-hp creatures of your opponent, if possible, otherwise target themselves with their ability. Use Construct Tower on your Emerald Towers in order to raise your quanta production and make your Alfars cheaper. Summon an army of Alfars and rush your opponent. If there are annoying permanents, use a Sprite to take them out and heal it with a Caduceus Staff if able. In case you face an army of creatures, concetrate in conjuring the proper shield via Elite Morphing Shield and heal yourself by sacrificing Spirit Towers if the need arises.

Serves to lock down opponent's field with flooding and/or displacement. Also adds to psychological damage by forcing the opponent to limit their card playing.

Get one of these out early on an opponent's creatures or a Cymothoa. Laugh as the opponent's own creatures crowd up their already crowded field.

Better quanta producers than towers or pends.

Ingamex2 copies
Who said flooding was useless? This helps to lock down the opponent's field slots.

Ingamex3 copies
Even more lock down! Just paired up with flooding is a good combo, but combine that with the already constrictive properties of the deck and the stats of charger, this card synergizes everywhere!

Ingamex4 copies
Basic towers.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/WaterPendulumUpgraded.png)Ingamex3 copies
Pendulum split for EQ protection

How the deck works:Suffocation
Water has the most control in the game. Why not capitalize on its immense CC capabilities with some hand control and even...mind control?
This deck is all about control and manipulation, specifically the mental control of the opponent. Cymothoas paired up with flooding allow for great field limitation of the opponent, and even a simple displacement can cut down the opponent's creature slots. Flooding is able to mop up any excess creatures, and squids act as very powerful delayers, nearly shutting down the opponent's field completely. The cymothoa's constant damage every time the opponent plays a card will have them worrying about their strategy as each of their creatures is shot down and their deck shut down. Aqua chargers provide the main offense of the deck, with squids adding to their offense if excess :water is gotten or the opponent is sufficiently blocked. Factories are equal, if not better quanta producers than towers and pendulums.

How the deck works:Mark is Darkness

So this deck is about getting lots and lots of regeneration on yourself.  For the most part, your cards have enough muscle that you don't have to worry about needing to deck out your opponent.  The sheer amount of purification should make poison decks untenable against you, and if you work quick enough, any damage at all should cease to be a problem.  The sirens are there just in case a worrisome creature does make it out, as well as to get rid of excess darkness quanta that will eventually build up. I considered adding a way to increase maximum HP, but ultimately decided against it for space, and because if it gets to the point that you are taking 100 damage per turn, you are probably losing anyway.  Steals are there in case an early sanctuary prevents you from using nightmare on the ghost, and should prove largely unneeded otherwise.

Overheated Gas

The first CIA card used by this deck is Overheat. However, it can really transform your mass CC effects into the deadliest weapon in Elements!

(http://imageplay.net/img/m7Gbd189275/bookun.png) (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,26887.0.html)Jocko (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,26887.0.html)x6 copies
The second CIA card used by this deck is Elemental Book. Just copy the ability of your UG and you can have up to 12 Unstable Gases!

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/UnstableGas.png)Ingamex6 copies
Unstable Gas is essential for your win, since your goal is to blow them all together and achieve OTK.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/WindPillar.png)Ingamex6 copies
Wind Pillars produce the majority of your :air quanta.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/AirPendulum.png)Ingamex6 copies
Air Pendulums exists in order to provide you with the :fire quanta supply needed to play Overheats and activate Unstable Gases, as well as your precious :air quanta.

How the deck works: MARK OF FIRE
 This deck shows that even a few CIA cards can offer great versality into traditional ETG decks. Overheat offers UG a much more deadly mass CC, enough to keep you alive if things go wrong, because of Overheat's stackable damage increase, and any Unstable Gas you sacrifice for defensive mass CC purpose can be replaced with an Elemental Book. Here are a few mathematics:

0 Overheats = 20 player damage & 1 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
1 Overheats = 21 player damage & 2 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
2 Overheats = 22 player damage & 3 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
3 Overheats = 23 player damage & 4 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
4 Overheats = 24 player damage & 5 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
5 Overheats = 25 player damage & 6 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
6 Overheats = 26 player damage & 7 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas


Obviously, 5 Overheats make only 4 UGs needed for a 100hp OTK!

How the deck works: The aim of the deck is to be a rush that can react well against cc. Just play everything that comes in to your hand and adrenaline everything that comes in to the field, Faes after pillars to make it worth less quanta. 7 is a good atk for adrenaline (8 aditional damage). The Warthogs works against shields that may stop the rush.

Ingame6 copies. For the venom and emergency targets for rejuvenation.
Ingame6 copies. Some more regeneration.
Ingame2 copies. Let's use that weapon slot.
How the deck works:This is a control deck that fits Life thematically while still preforming its job. Control decks have a few tasks.
1) It needs to be able to slow down the opponent.
This deck has Rejuvenation to deal with hostile abilities and to provide additional regeneration if we need it. Lignification is there to remove the threat of high attack creatures. The combination of regeneration, attack reduction and ability removal should be sufficient to contain the opponent.
2) It needs a high certainty win condition. Preferably one that uses few deck slots.
Life's most certain win condition is Venom. Scorpions always get at least 1 attack. If they hit then only Purify can remove the damage. Rejuvenation can remove the DR ability from shields allowing the Scorpions through.

How the deck works:Mark is entropy.
A rush deck based on the abilty of growing up(when targeted) of 2ATK-2HP of Seiryuu wich plus the pumping up of chaos power can give you fast damage and durable creatures and if a shield is putted out you can count on the spell damage given by spirit of nature.
The mechanic is pretty simple, you just have to play a seiryuu and pump it with chaos power, after this, play a spirit of nature to obtain basically a PU permanent but with spell damage of the target, then you keep on play seiryuu and pump it.
NOTE:You may play all of your chaos powers on the first seiryuu if the oppo runs DS or a hard (but non reflective) shield so that you can maximize the spirit of nature efficence.
You may play more systematically your chaos powers on your seiryuu(s)? if the enemy run VERY hard damaging CC or delaying CC.Rush.

How the deck works:Mark is Entropy

Have you made your sacrifice to the RNG this week?  Because if you haven't, this deck will not be kind to you.  Almost everything in this deck is random in some way or another, most in ways that can end badly for you.  Still, the average power of these random cards is a bit higher than you would usually get for the cost, so I guess you've got to ask yourself one question:  Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Get out an Octopus ASAP and use Extract on it whenever possible, to give you a burst of quanta. Start freezing dangerous creatures, while your Octopi grow with SoP. Use Permafrost to stop the opponent's weapon, shield, and any other annoying permanents. Ice avatar makes the opponent's creatures become frozen for SIX turns, and your opponent's non-stackable permanents frozen for five turns. Wait until your Octopi and Avatars are huge, then click on SoP for a TTK, or even a OTK.

How the deck works:First of all, the Mark is Time. The way it works is that you play a Celtic Ring, Monkey, and a Seiryuu. You target Seiryuu (if you have it on the field) with the ring, and it gains +3/+2. The upgraded Celtic Ring is +3/+3. Then, activating Monkey's Mimic ability, it also gains the attack boost, getting it out of the main CC range. It relies on stopping both the hand and permanents for control.

How the deck works:MARK of GravityThe main attacker in this deck is Satellite. Because its attack is increased based on its position on the board, the rest of this deck is built to fill up your creature slots quickly. Alpha Wolf and Swarm provide quick creatures for a fast rush. At the same time, they take up spaces so when you play Satellite it'll have high attack power. Then you use the other cards in the deck to keep increasing the damage. The deck can also break stalls because of Mitosis and Spirit of Nature. With them, Dim Shields and high healing decks won't stand a chance. Rejuvenation and Magnetic Sword can help deal with any pesky ability you may come across.
A powerful Life/Gravity duo??? (Yes, please)

Octopus is a decent secondary attacker with a cloaking ability, luring two fish in a standard water/darkness with one stone. Although Cloak does little to protect Octopus itself, it enhances the durability of Genbu.

Genbu is a high-range attacker which is already resistant to damage before Octopus ink. In addition, he possess a small CC ability for low-HP annoyances. This ability is made much more potent when paired with Shadow Pact.

In Too Deep

A surprisingly simple deck, but intricate and loaded with synergy, this deck is a water/darkness duo that utilizes the elements in ways never possible before. It maintains tough damage in the form of several 4-attack Octopii meant for the early game, and resistant Genbu that deal strong late game damage. In addition, Genbu can be made incredibly powerful with Shadow Pact, which has the potential to buff Genbu's offense and give it a small shot at killing creatures. The deck utilizes quanta production that draws through the deck in Dark Flash, and a one-way elemental swap in Quantum Locket, to tweak the deck's quanta usage.

Yeah, we all know Card Idea Arthuria goes great with Card Idea Bediveren, but what about actually making a deck out of those cards?

How the deck works:Mark is Fire
So this deck is all about decking out your opponent.  At first, I wanted my submission to be based on just my 2 card creations, but since it is a deck out deck it needs to be larger than average, so I went looking through the armory and forge for more.  Because it is based on decking out, reverse times are counterproductive, so I went with fire lances for creature control.  This gave another reason for using the Fire mark to power up the shard.  Your opponent's hand will be clogged a lot of the time, so be careful that you are drawing at a slower rate than they are if their deck is big.  You want to save the lances for when they are really necessary. Your shield will replenish with almost every card in play, but if opponent's hand fills up, that will slow down greatly, use the lances then.   Don't worry about the Ghost's dying early, you can make your opponent draw 36 cards with spells alone.

A very useful card, Spirit Tower gives you a :life quanta buff early in game in order to play the rest of your cards and it can also heals you if the situation is dire.

Caduceus Staff combines well with your :life mark for a great amount of damage and its healing ability is very useful upon your Sprites.

Forgotten Knight serves like an early hitter, a cheap CC and, most of all, like an Emerald Pillar upon his death. This extra quanta supply is vital for playing Alfars later...

Elite Morphing Shield serves as a versatile late-game supporting card. By paying 10 :life, you can either have a Spine Carapace or a Jade Shield.

(http://i.imgur.com/yUr1C.png) (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,37502)Zblader (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,37502)x6 copies
Alfars are the basic hitters of this deck. Emerald Towers made by Forgotten Soldiers and Construct Towers comboes will make them cheap enough.

(http://i.imgur.com/gcqyw.png) (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,41383.0.html)Kev (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,41383.0.html)x6 copies
Sprites are re-usable PC creatures which can last forever if combined with Caudeus Staff's ability. Sprites take 1 damage when they use their ability, so Caduceus Staff heals this damage at once.

How the deck works: MARK OF LIFE
 Play your Spirit Towers on your first turn and, if you are really short in quanta, play a Construct Tower on them. Summon Forgotten Knights on your second turn and sacrifice then by destroying low-hp creatures of your opponent, if possible, otherwise target themselves with their ability. Use Construct Tower on your Emerald Towers in order to raise your quanta production and make your Alfars cheaper. Summon an army of Alfars and rush your opponent. If there are annoying permanents, use a Sprite to take them out and heal it with a Caduceus Staff if able. In case you face an army of creatures, concetrate in conjuring the proper shield via Elite Morphing Shield and heal yourself by sacrificing Spirit Towers if the need arises.

Serves to lock down opponent's field with flooding and/or displacement. Also adds to psychological damage by forcing the opponent to limit their card playing.

Better quanta producers than towers or pends.

Ingamex2 copies
Who said flooding was useless? This helps to lock down the opponent's field slots.

Ingamex3 copies
Even more lock down! Just paired up with flooding is a good combo, but combine that with the already constrictive properties of the deck and the stats of charger, this card synergizes everywhere!

Ingamex4 copies
Basic towers.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/WaterPendulumUpgraded.png)Ingamex3 copies
Pendulum split for EQ protection

How the deck works:Suffocation
Water has the most control in the game. Why not capitalize on its immense CC capabilities with some hand control and even...mind control?
This deck is all about control and manipulation, specifically the mental control of the opponent. Cymothoas paired up with flooding allow for great field limitation of the opponent, and even a simple displacement can cut down the opponent's creature slots. Flooding is able to mop up any excess creatures, and squids act as very powerful delayers, nearly shutting down the opponent's field completely. The cymothoa's constant damage every time the opponent plays a card will have them worrying about their strategy as each of their creatures is shot down and their deck shut down. Aqua chargers provide the main offense of the deck, with squids adding to their offense if excess :water is gotten or the opponent is sufficiently blocked. Factories are equal, if not better quanta producers than towers and pendulums.

How the deck works:Mark is Darkness

So this deck is about getting lots and lots of regeneration on yourself.  For the most part, your cards have enough muscle that you don't have to worry about needing to deck out your opponent.  The sheer amount of purification should make poison decks untenable against you, and if you work quick enough, any damage at all should cease to be a problem.  The sirens are there just in case a worrisome creature does make it out, as well as to get rid of excess darkness quanta that will eventually build up. I considered adding a way to increase maximum HP, but ultimately decided against it for space, and because if it gets to the point that you are taking 100 damage per turn, you are probably losing anyway.  Steals are there in case an early sanctuary prevents you from using nightmare on the ghost, and should prove largely unneeded otherwise.

The first CIA card used by this deck is Overheat. However, it can really transform your mass CC effects into the deadliest weapon in Elements!

The second CIA card used by this deck is Elemental Book. Just copy the ability of your UG and you can have up to 12 Unstable Gases!

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/UnstableGas.png)Ingamex6 copies
Unstable Gas is essential for your win, since your goal is to blow them all together and achieve OTK.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/WindPillar.png)Ingamex6 copies
Wind Pillars produce the majority of your :air quanta.

(http://elementscommunity.org/images/Cards/AirPendulum.png)Ingamex6 copies
Air Pendulums exists in order to provide you with the :fire quanta supply needed to play Overheats and activate Unstable Gases, as well as your precious :air quanta.

How the deck works: MARK OF FIRE
 This deck shows that even a few CIA cards can offer great versality into traditional ETG decks. Overheat offers UG a much more deadly mass CC, enough to keep you alive if things go wrong, because of Overheat's stackable damage increase, and any Unstable Gas you sacrifice for defensive mass CC purpose can be replaced with an Elemental Book. Here are a few mathematics:

0 Overheats = 20 player damage & 1 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
1 Overheats = 21 player damage & 2 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
2 Overheats = 22 player damage & 3 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
3 Overheats = 23 player damage & 4 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
4 Overheats = 24 player damage & 5 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
5 Overheats = 25 player damage & 6 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas
6 Overheats = 26 player damage & 7 mass CC damage by Unstable Gas


Obviously, 5 Overheats make only 4 UGs needed for a 100hp OTK!

How the deck works: The aim of the deck is to be a rush that can react well against cc. Just play everything that comes in to your hand and adrenaline everything that comes in to the field, Faes after pillars to make it worth less quanta. 7 is a good atk for adrenaline (8 aditional damage). The Warthogs works against shields that may stop the rush.

These do not form a stack. The cost of additional permanent slots brings the benefit of being resistant against Earthquake. I also challenged myself to avoid in game quanta producers.
Ingame6 copies. For the venom and emergency targets for rejuvenation.
Ingame6 copies. Some more regeneration.
Ingame2 copies. Let's use that weapon slot.
How the deck works:This is a control deck that fits Life thematically while still preforming its job. Control decks have a few tasks.
1) It needs to be able to slow down the opponent.
This deck has Rejuvenation to deal with hostile abilities and to provide additional regeneration if we need it. Lignification is there to remove the threat of high attack creatures. The combination of regeneration, attack reduction and ability removal should be sufficient to contain the opponent.
2) It needs a high certainty win condition. Preferably one that uses few deck slots.
Life's most certain win condition is Venom. Scorpions always get at least 1 attack. If they hit then only Purify can remove the damage. Rejuvenation can remove the DR ability from shields allowing the Scorpions through.

How the deck works:You can either rush or break stalls with this deck. Seiryuu is your main source of damage, use the Skogsra to make it bigger and heal you when needed. The Essence of natures makes your big dragon hit over shields and if someone steals it the emerald shield will return the magic damage to the oponent. Life cycle to make the skogsras come back to the field after being cc'ed.

How the deck works:Mark is entropy.
A rush deck based on the abilty of growing up(when targeted) of 2ATK-2HP of Seiryuu wich plus the pumping up of chaos power can give you fast damage and durable creatures and if a shield is putted out you can count on the spell damage given by spirit of nature.
The mechanic is pretty simple, you just have to play a seiryuu and pump it with chaos power, after this, play a spirit of nature to obtain basically a PU permanent but with spell damage of the target, then you keep on play seiryuu and pump it.
NOTE:You may play all of your chaos powers on the first seiryuu if the oppo runs DS or a hard (but non reflective) shield so that you can maximize the spirit of nature efficence.
You may play more systematically your chaos powers on your seiryuu(s)? if the enemy run VERY hard damaging CC or delaying CC.Rush.

How the deck works:Mark is Entropy

Have you made your sacrifice to the RNG this week?  Because if you haven't, this deck will not be kind to you.  Almost everything in this deck is random in some way or another, most in ways that can end badly for you.  Still, the average power of these random cards is a bit higher than you would usually get for the cost, so I guess you've got to ask yourself one question:  Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

How the deck works:This is a control deck. Lockdown your opponent with squids and permafrosts, using avatars to make it last much longer. In the meantime, grow your creatures with SoP until you can make that final hit.
Get out an Octopus ASAP and use Extract on it whenever possible, to give you a burst of quanta. Start freezing dangerous creatures, while your Octopi grow with SoP. Use Permafrost to stop the opponent's weapon, shield, and any other annoying permanents. Ice avatar makes the opponent's creatures become frozen for SIX turns, and your opponent's non-stackable permanents frozen for five turns. Wait until your Octopi and Avatars are huge, then click on SoP for a TTK, or even a OTK.

How the deck works:First of all, the Mark is Time. The way it works is that you play a Celtic Ring, Monkey, and a Seiryuu. You target Seiryuu (if you have it on the field) with the ring, and it gains +3/+2. The upgraded Celtic Ring is +3/+3. Then, activating Monkey's Mimic ability, it also gains the attack boost, getting it out of the main CC range. It relies on stopping both the hand and permanents for control.

How the deck works:MARK of GravityThe main attacker in this deck is Satellite. Because its attack is increased based on its position on the board, the rest of this deck is built to fill up your creature slots quickly. Alpha Wolf and Swarm provide quick creatures for a fast rush. At the same time, they take up spaces so when you play Satellite it'll have high attack power. Then you use the other cards in the deck to keep increasing the damage. The deck can also break stalls because of Mitosis and Spirit of Nature. With them, Dim Shields and high healing decks won't stand a chance. Rejuvenation and Magnetic Sword can help deal with any pesky ability you may come across.
A powerful Life/Gravity duo??? (Yes, please)

Octopus is a decent secondary attacker with a cloaking ability, luring two fish in a standard water/darkness with one stone. Although Cloak does little to protect Octopus itself, it enhances the durability of Genbu.

Genbu is a high-range attacker which is already resistant to damage before Octopus ink. In addition, he possess a small CC ability for low-HP annoyances. This ability is made much more potent when paired with Shadow Pact.

Shadow Pact is added to boost Genbu's attack by two, while not even removing his HP because of his passive, and make his ability much more deadly.

In Too Deep

A surprisingly simple deck, but intricate and loaded with synergy, this deck is a water/darkness duo that utilizes the elements in ways never possible before. It maintains tough damage in the form of several 4-attack Octopii meant for the early game, and resistant Genbu that deal strong late game damage. In addition, Genbu can be made incredibly powerful with Shadow Pact, which has the potential to buff Genbu's offense and give it a small shot at killing creatures. The deck utilizes quanta production that draws through the deck in Dark Flash, and a one-way elemental swap in Quantum Locket, to tweak the deck's quanta usage.
