Or maybe Scarabs? Rainbow control?

I made an unupped version a while ago:

This deck was mainly made for pvp1 and it is quite good for this purpose.

Also a while ago but upped - I loved the TU strategy of Doomeister:

This is typically a pvp2 deck but in the original thread their is also a FG-killer version.

On a side note: I think it would be nice if the deck you guys post had either an indication of the level they are meant to beat or at least a couple of screen-shots. It has 2 interests: (a) One can see very fast where you have to test it in order to tune/tweak it (b) It avoids you to post decks which look good on paper and will never work in-game (e.g. because you lack the first etc...).

Where are the Aflas? o.o

Where are the Aflas? o.o

Afla is way too expensive for such a strategy.
Also Afla NEEDS a DR shield to work. My favourite is Solar Buckler because it also turns each impact into .
Sadly I don't have the upped aflatoxins yet and I at the moment do not consider any deck not able to do this:

[Chapuz]

I was talking about the Afla Challenge 

Accepted and accepted.

The MSDT could use Towers instead of Soul Catchers for more steady combo, at the risk of speed of course.
As for Fahrenheit's spelling, check the card.

Challenge: how do we work on an Aflatoxin + Oty combo?
Or maybe Scarabs? Rainbow control?
Try to make a combo, using Aflatoxin as a core card. The combo itself includes Malignant Cell, but not a fieldlock combo.
(SoP has been tried before, so it's also excluded. Though if you can not use the SoP on your Malignant Cells, it can be made.)
Source: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,36790.0.html

An example has been made by Gandora.

I still think the idea is interesting and I accepted the challenge
So here's what I came up with:

by Chapuz

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink

Deck import code : [Select]

52n 52n 6rv 6rv 713 713 71c 71c 71c 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 72i 745 745 749 749 74b 74b 74b 74b 74b 8pl

Both and have some low-cost critters to support the slowly growing atk of otyugh.
Aflatoxin is used on the enemies field. Actually, you don't have to lock him down. Just be sure to have at least one oty.
So whenever there are two cells on his field you eat one. This way you have constant source of cells and you won't be overwhelmed.
I guess the one dmg that cell does isn't a problem, if yes you can still eat it. While you eat your field will accumulate skeletons (which also can be eaten if you
got many oty's out). Shard of Patience can be an incredible boost when your field is filled with skeletons, and allow them also to surpass 1 dmg blocking shields.
Also they may help against Shard of Sacrifice. If you still want to lock the enemy you can just replace the shield with skull bucklers. Obviously, you lack permanent control.
That's why this deck will certainly loose against as well as high creature control. However, there are many ways to change this deck. E.g you can change SoP and Recluse for Poison
cards or you can add more chargers etc.

Anyway, it's something different and it's fun to play in my opinion even though it's slow ^^

Yeah I just took the second line of the said challenge: "Scarabs / Rainbow control" instead of the first  "Aflatoxin / Oty combo".

Btw, SoP is such a nice answer to Aflatoxin:

Someone call for a Solar Buckler Aflatoxin deck?

Yes, It goes in the good direction. I took a slightly more stalling perspective:

Made in platinum League as always:



Sadly I don't have the aflatoxins (or deathstalker) upgraded yet.
Also, I believe you NEED the 4 shields (at least in the 40 (34) cards version I used) because you want to afla early and therefore to be shielded early.
It might be nice to have 1/2 aflatoxin more (too have then earlier) and get rid of the early creatures.
I also though that the SoD were a good match with miracle specially with a mark of light.
It might be interresting to have 1/2 Holy light for more EM and against SoSa.
The sundial are for more stall, obviously.
What do you think?

Afla will make the oponent give you more than the needed quanta for the Miracles, so 6 SoSas wouldn't be a bad stalling tool here.

With Aflatoxin and solar buckler?
Not sure if serious.

Dunno why you insist on putting crappy cards in a good deck..

Because the idea is to test new synergies and stuff. The gallery decks are 3 good examples.
