Four decks that differ quite a bit from the ordinary deck is that its focus is defence first in order to minimize damage. But the thing because of its low attacking power. I'm very likely to deck out. So I'm not just looking for suggestions as to how to improve the decks, but also whenever or not people think I should use more then 30 cards in the deck in order to fit more power into it and well as reduce the chance of decking out.

If you're going for stalling, you should at least have 31-32 cards since most PvP opponents you go up against have 30 card decks. Using this against AI isn't a good idea since you will deck out since most AI decks have over 30 cards.

[allanpike]

So how many cards do you think I should have? Keep with a low number (say 31-35) or medium (40-50) or even push towards the 60 mark?

Really depends on what you're going up against. If you're going up against PvP, 31-32 should suffice. If you're going in the arena, 35-40 cards. If you're going for AI3, 44-45 should be good. Having way too much just makes your draws bad.

[allanpike]

So no more then 45 then?

And this deck does no good against FG?

Definitely not. FGs have double decks, so even if you're able to effectively control six of their creatures, they still have another six of them with their double dexterity. Taking a look at your bottom deck, the holy lights and guardian angels would probably be better as sanctuaries since you're going for stalling. You'd get rushed to death by FGs if you tried bringing this to a FG fight.

In second deck Pulverizer is useless since you can`t use its ability. Wardens could be powered of mark (possibly supported by some Light Pendulums). You might replace Pulvy and Earth Pillars with Light Pillars and Golden Dragons to provide some damage.
I suggest something like this:

I wouldn`t recommend this kind of deck for farming AI3 since it is pretty slow so it will take ages to earn some electrum, but it should do well in PvP.

[allanpike]

Yeah... I didn't think it would be good against FG. But yeah, I'll replace the angels and holy light with Sanctuaries once I got enough room

... Thanks for the suggestion Ped... but I don't think that will work. The Warden's can be very expensive when you get a lot of them on the field, there is no way the mark will be able to pay for all of them at once.

In the first deck, one cata is just not enough. Add another 2. The deck will be a healthy 32 cards and will have more trolling and flinging damage capacity.

Also, looking at them both, if you mix the second deck with the first, you could come up with a Armagio GPull + Guardian Angels (Which is pretty cool.) If you want you could possibly splash a BB or three (They'll help in cata possibilities and will also give your Armagio a bigger Meat Shield.) Not posting any pictures now, but will probably edit this tomorrow.

[eaglgenes101]

Or an eternity could be used. Just make sure you'll have enough time quanta.

[Mathematistic]

Combine deck #1 and deck #2, and you get guardian angels healing your armagios...

[allanpike]

Sorry but I had already thought about doing such a deck... I guess I just need to get around to posting it up.
