Silence is Golden [Platinum][PvP]

[funnyruler]

I guess I'm not doing this the right way because I just went 0/20 in plat. Don't have it really upped, though, and I should probably start my silence chains earlier. However, I feel as if I'm in a complete lack of quanta whenever I get an early nymph, and when I'm not, I don't have the nymph to use.

this deck doesn't work if you don't have it upped.  And in my opinion, it's not worth using until you get 2-3 actual golden nymphs (i.e. not relying on nymph tears).

I don't know what you have upped, but if you don't have the SNs, silences, and towers/pends upped, then going 0/20 sounds entirely possible.  Also, if you have 1 or less actual nymphs, that makes things even more gimmicky.

For the record, I was using the deck in the OP, with unupped nymphs (I do have two of them), silences, mitosis and 1 precog. The way I usually go for new decks when I don't have them fully upped yet is by upping them gradually. It's worked with CCYB, Instosis, PharaSoR, you name it. I guess the unupped silences just hurt too much

Unupped Silences are useless in this deck, same for unupped mitosis since it needs 3 SNs.

Yeah, that's one thing the SN nerf has an immediate effect on.  Before when you could spam SN you could get away with unupped silences/mitosis.  Now, unupped needs an extra turn.  And considering this is a speed deck, one turn means a ton.

Also, this deck relies on chaining silences.  You can't do that with unupped silences now.

Actually you can't even play unupped silences, because 5 silences costs 15, and can't be played by SNs, upped only 10 so those can be played.

I'd like to try this in game, had I had 2 nymphs.

The deck he was playing is the one in the OP, which has 4 silences.  And what you said technically isn't accurate.  If he had 5 silences, he wouldn't be able to play the 5th silence.  Silences 1-4 can still be played.  Chances are he will never reach the situation where not being able to play the last silence costs him the game.

poeple keep mentioning not upping nymphs. why not?

Because upped nymph + unupped competitive PvP = unusable super rare card which can't be grinded.
Unupped nymph + upped PvP can still work, but not the other way around.

i thought most turneys didnt allow nymphs anyway. but ok, thanks.

[RRQJ]

most tournaments don't allow shards.  I don't think nymphs were ever banned by themselves.  Usually they get banned along with a bunch of other cards when following some tournament theme.

Nor effective at all. Shard of readiness doesn't help them. And then you also lose the draw aspect which makes the deck what it is.
