Help My Deck Building please (New to this game)

[DOX]

Hello,

A friend of mine introduced me to this game and I love it so far. But I made a mistake about the quests and ended up building an earth deck after several mark changes and entire deck changes. So I am broke and this is my deck at the moment. ^_^"

Cards
2 Graboid
4 Elite Graboid
1 Gnome GemFinder
2 Shrieker
1 Earthquake
9 Stone Pillar

  Cards
2 Steal

  Cards
2 Deflagerate

  Cards
2 Graviton Fire Eater

  Cards
1 Golden Hourglass

4 Quantum Pillars

Mark: 

...Could anyone suggest edits or things to aim for (aside form the obvious upgrading of the cards ^_^") asI continue to grind?[/size]

For edits, I'd recommend removing the Quantum Pillars & all the non-earth cards (including the Hourglass) + the Gem-finder. The Earthquake should either be removed or more added depending on personal preference and what you're playing vs at the time.

There's lot's of ways to build Shrieker rush, and it works great unupp'd or upp'd, so i'll just list all the cards I swap into mine and you can mess around until you find the build that suits you

12-17 Stone pillar
6 Graboid
0-6 Shrieker (Don't play too many of these unless you have a high pillar count (15+))
0-2 Long Sword
0/5-6 Earthquake (Lots or none. I prefer lots for PvP, and none for t50/ai3 farming)
0/2 Diamond shield (Again, these are only good if you play a lot of pillars, can be a great help vs some fast creature rush decks)
0-6 Rewind (These work best when used with earthquakes, but are still pretty strong without them)
I've also seen a few people running Antlions and Precognitions (only in the fully upp'd versions) tho I don't have much experience trying either of these.

6 earthquakes? Seriously?O_O"

Hmm... a mono element basicly?... I'll give it a go

[Irkalia]

I run 5 quakes usually. I'd either run 0, 5 or 6 tho - you want at least one in your starting hand or they become very weak very fast.

And yeh, for fast creature rush decks you usually want to be mono as it makes you more consistent. Tho there are a few exceptions.

Also consider running the same deck with 1 or 2 Hourglasses.

[DOX]

Cool! Thanks for the input The deck is running more smoothly now

Should I go for pulvurize as a rare weapon or titan? O_O

[Delreich]

Pulverizer is much more versatile than Titan, and useful in more decks. You may also want to consider Eternity.
