Hi everyone.

Did you encounter deck that you think is overpowered? Do you want to build deck against current FOTM, but you skill is not sufficient? Paste here the deck so others can help you with inventing a counter.

If you know good [ie. not single-focused] counter [it may be just mechanics (poison for example), or a whole deck] for any of the presented decks not described already, please tell us, so we, humble noobs, can gain some knowledge.

Please, name every deck, so counters may be tagged and easily connected.

P.S. Decks in this thread should be player ones and should be considered as played by humans. How to counter FGs is there -> http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,15.0.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,15.0.html)

P.P.S. Best format for this would be separate forum section with each deck having its own thread, maybe if popular, we can persuade the mods to make it ;D.


So I will begin with deck, that I consider current FOTM: Scaredgirls FG killer deck

And will add first reply as well [to show format I would like to have in the thread] :-[

Re: Scaredgirls FG killer deck
I am currently playing Adrenaline Mono deck, unfortunately not improved. I think I would have SOME chance with improved version, but it's very luck based - without any permanent destroyers, I am pretty much finished with first Phase Shield. So not counter by any means.

Why Devourers against a Rainbow Deck?

This deck has little creatures with damage.

I would try mono-aether, or aether+earth, (aether+ fire for deflag could work, too)

enchanted lobos against queen, the golem,( or several lobos + deflag for aether-fire, can´t steal all you have )
lightning + lobo against shrieker
oty is useless.
lightning, lobo against druids, ulitharid

Deflag enemy shields, if you have many Dragons on field, not before.

like this ( didn´t test)
6 Artifacts/ Deflag
3 Lobos
3 Lightning
6 Phase Dragon
3 Phase Shield
15 Pillars
I`m teffy, here - and Ringat on Kongregate

You use the "whatever else you want".

Countering your normal rainbow deck is simple, really.

12x Stone tower, 6x quicksand, 6x elite graboid, 6x rewind, for instance
Or 4x Pulvy, 12x Stone tower, 5x Basalt dragon, 3x PA, 4x Gravity pull, 2x Diamond shield
Or 10x Bone tower, 6x Physalia, 6x Deadly poison, 6x Congeal, 2x Arsenic
Or 12x Gravity tower, 6x Elite charger, 6x Quicksand, 6x Black hole

The list goes on and on...

I dunno.  I did leave 6 spots open for whatever else you wanted to put in.  Try dark dragons?  You devourers to supply the mana.
