Help with my first deck (AI 3 Rush)

[BottledJesus]

Hey guys, i've recently starting playing elements, and i have been using other people's recommended decks to farm some money. While this has been effective, i find it quite boring and want to make my own deck, but i would like the opinion of the pros on what i have so far   

so here it is:

Code: [Select]

5bt 5bt 5bt 5bt 5bt 5bt 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5l8 5l8 5l8 7jp 7jp 7jp
my strategy is to play light pillars/rols on turn 1, a rustler on turn 2, and have mass quanta on every subsequent turn to rush dragons and adrenalined frogs

on a side note, im working towards a RoL/hope deck and i still need to find ~3 lobotomizers. what would be the best way to get them?

EDIT: Would it be smarter to use one adrenaline on a RoL instead of on a frog early to boost quanta production?

Lobotomizers:

Do not fear the Top 50 category of a fight. Sometimes the decks are amazing and pummel you, however the 15 coins lost is in my honest opinion, worth it.

Why might you ask? Well, one simple reason. People create decks called "Farms" which are requested in the Chat room (which can be found as the tab at the top of this page called tab, or HERE (http://elementschat.co.cc/)) and consist of 2 to 3 rare cards, sometimes Lobotomizers, sometimes Eternities and the pillars in the deck are either scattered, or off element so that the Lobotomizer (or Eternity for that matter) cannot be played.

People set up these farms late at their respective nights so that while they sleep, others win rare cards. It's quite kind of the Elements community.

Please do not forget that the cards that are won come in their pre-upgraded forms.

Be careful with the 1 or 2 "Biting Farms" which pack element aligned pillars and towers and will be able to bring out their rare cards. They are still jokes compared to other Top 50 decks but it is something that you should be wary of.
Deck advice:

You seem to be packing a rush. I would suggest taking out 2-3 Emerald Dragons and putting in some Empathic bonds. It might help with higher coin winning per match.

If you're going to be using Rustlers consider switching your mark to as opposed to relying on your Rays of Light and Light Pillars.

As for deck advice, my deckbuilding skills are not top notch but I will get back to your deck after more analysis.

thanks for the advice, esp. about rare farms, i had no idea about them.

If you're going to be using Rustlers consider switching your mark to as opposed to relying on your Rays of Light and Light Pillars.

unfortunately, if i switch my mark to i wont have the early quanta to play the rustler (unless i change my pillars to , but that kinda defeats the purpose of usin rustlers to turn pillars into 2 pillars, as well as addin randomness to my hand     )

il try it out, but it seems this way will make me end up with less quanta

[Hyroen]

Haha, I see your point, to be honest I hadn't caught that. If not switching the mark, why not try instead of Light Pillars and Rays of Light, some Luciferin, which should work wonders by turn 2. The rush would be exponential.

I'll try it out and report my findings.

EDIT: Try out this variant. Adrenaline Horned Frogs producing light, 4 per turn = 8 with Rustlers Now if Fractals could be thrown in xD.

Code: [Select]

5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5c6 5c6 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5lj 5lj 5lj 5lj 5lj 5lj

im confused as to what i would use the luciferin on at turn 2. i defenitely wont have dragons or frogs up by then... unless i take away some dragons and add some pillars...

[Hyroen]

Overlooked some things. Sorry, dragons should not be a main constituent of this deck, they do not work with Adrenaline half as well as Horned Frogs do, and with Adrenaline and Luciferin and Rustlers, the aforementioned deck packs quite a punch.

Tell me if you like it

I'll still experiment.

doesnt luciferin not work on creatures that already have a skill? unless rustlers' active somehow doesnt count, im still confused...

i dont waste adrenalines on drags, their just there to spend the 30+ i acumulate after im done adrenaline-ing my frogs n rols. its true they could be replaced with something better though. what do u recommend replacing them with?

[Hyroen]

Try it on the frogs

And try the deck I posted.

[BottledJesus]

ooops, i didnt see your edit there. 

Edit: Its nice, but not enough creatures/stuff to spend the MASSIVE ammount of  quanta on. id reduce the ammount of luciferins and put in something else.... hmm...
