Flying others, welcome to 2012

[asymmetry]

I caught myself with some flying gavel nostalgia lately, and wondered how deadly could this "Other-rush" concept be in v1.31
So this thread is in part a personal compilation and a call to arms, get freaky and post your own experiences.

First some background... the legendary Puppychow came up with this back in 2009
Order in the court

Quicksands also plausible, but they're likely to arrive too late ... SoBe FTW

Swords because of mark, careful with these because they're just 6/2

More to come, have fun meanwhile!

[Chapuz]

I like them! but wht 1.31?

[asymmetry]

Because these decks take the damselfly buff , the cremation and nova nerf into consideration
Also, new cards mean more possibilites!

in times where first turn SoFs are very common, a pillarless rush is a nice way to fight back.
My favorite so far is Bow down with 3x SoFr

[Chapuz]

Average TTW in PVP-AI3? they all look freaking fun

[Rutarete]

These do look fun

[esran]

the bow one looks really fun. does it need to be upped to work?

[Chapuz]

The sparta deck seems pretty mulligan trolling with 3 different 0 cost cards, same as bow down.

[asymmetry]

All of them can troll in first hands but they get going pretty fast. And damselflies generate quanta so by turn 2 you'll surely have some damage going on

I rarely lose with the first two, stalls are the main issue...  if you feel you need more stability you can always try Immogavel  (+1 cremation, cremation fuel and main creature of choice)

@esran, sadly, no deck here is decent w(o upgrades

[Rutarete]

So... I got short bow as my oracle card today, and I remembered this thread and put up a similar deck to Bow Down. I hope it goes well.

Edit: Did a few tests, and it works well.

Here's a really bad SoFrebow I made.

Very unstable, needing a 4 card combo, but 24 damage per turn is nice if it works.

short bow makes mre damage without  mark when adrenalined, so why not  mark?

Nope. Short bow with adren and mark is 16 damage. The air bonus is added with each attack and doesn't count toward its 3 attack.
