BlackHole/Discord Deck -- Looking for suggestions/criticism https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=12497.msg156994#msg156994
« on: September 12, 2010, 05:10:34 am »
Hi all, pretty new to the game (started playing a week or so ago). Just wanted to get some feedback about this deck.

Code: [Select]
4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vl 4vl 4vl 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55l 55l 55l 55l 55s 55v 55v 55v 55v 55v 55v 5oi 5oi 5oi
Some changes I was considering:
1. Changing out titan for dissipation shield, or simply adding a dissipation shield
2. Possibly adding 1-2 butterfly effects, as discords are currently the only cards using  :entropy

Any suggestions/criticisms are welcome.

Thanks for your help.

Novas seem kinda pointless, my suggestion would be mark of air and change the novas to entropy pillars.

EDIT: Also take out the titan and add something else.

I kinda agree w/Legit, but I'd keep the :entropymark and 3 Novas.  Drop 2 Novas, 1 Gravity Pillar, and 1 Charger and put in 4 1-2 CC CC cards.  (that's Casting Cost Creature Control, all of different elements.  Reverse Time, Freeze, Thunderbolt, and Shockwave, for example.
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

Hehe. Your version and both of the ones given are fine. S'all depends on what you plan to use it for. So, what opponent are you playing with this?

well the titan is not going to much use other than damage and you've pretty much got a booked weapon slot waiting for the animates so you should change to air mark and add 4 entropy pillars get rid of the titan. and that will leave with abit of room for some useful entropy card if not just put in more entropy pillars.

Hi all, pretty new to the game (started playing a week or so ago). Just wanted to get some feedback about this deck.

You started playing a week ago, and already have 3 discords and a titan? :o

NICE

I have been playing for weeks and just got my first discord from a t50 farm.

I'd take out 3-4 novas and 1 gravity pillar and add 4-5 entropy pillars.  Take out the titan and put in a grav shield, or any low cost shield such as fog.  Change the mark to air.

because the point of this deck is to get a discord out fast, I would definitely leave mark of Entropy, no question there. The earlier you can get it out the better, so novas can really help. After that, you just want to black hole them into oblivion until you get out your damage. I think it's fine as is, but I might argue for -1 titan, it's not really that useful, +1 Nova, this gives you a greater chance of getting that first discord out while simultaneously helping get out a black hole early.

Concerning your changes suggestions:
1.  Stay away from Dissipation Shield.  I understand that your Discord are the only cards utilizing :entropy, but the bottom line is that there are other shields (Fog has been suggested) that would serve more of a purpose; because you're generating 1 :entropy quantum per turn through your mark and 6 more through nova, you're going to find the shield getting eaten through pretty quick even if it is later in the game.
2.  While Butterfly Effect is a powerful card, I'm interested to know what card you plan to use it on.  Butterfly Effect only works on cards with less than 3 attack, which none of these cards have.

If you're looking for cards to use with your entropy quantum, I'd suggest Antimatter or Maxwell's Demon to fill those spots.  Antimatter is great for dealing with high damage creatures and in return heals you at same time (unfortunately its cost is fairly high).  Maxwell's is generally useful against almost any high damage creature in the game and it's effect is reusable (the effect however does cost 2 :entropy to use, so it might not be the best solution).  Yet another solution is to use Chaos Seed for some creature control, given the effect delivered on the opposing creature is random, it's still a cheap form of creature control.

Nice deck overall though.
