Returned to the game, what to make of these cards? FG farmer https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=54016.msg1129524#msg1129524
« on: March 14, 2014, 04:30:39 pm »
Hi, I've played this game a while ago and randomly came back to it 2 days ago. I'm looking for a deck to farm FGs. Been using Firecell and I really like it, but it would be nice to beat some FGs I haven't managed to win against yet (Jezebel and others look pretty much unbeatable from my point of view).

Anyway, this is the deck that was still active on the account when I came back to it:



Doesn't really work well, got a maybe 5% or 10% win rate when not skipping any gods. Is there anything I can build with it? I also have a couple of other upgraded cards (just ask), 3 white Shards and 3 grey, 1 white and 1 purple Nymphs.

p.s.
Would someone be so kind to link me to a currently applicable RoL/Hope deck? It appears I was building one when I stopped back then, seeing how I have 8 RoLs (won 2 recently) and some Hopes, though I'm not sure the latter are upgraded. A pic of the deck would suffice, but a thread would be even better so I know which FGs should be skipped. I've tried looking before but have a hard time telling which information is still valuable.

RoL/Hope and Monoaether are pretty much the only FG killers that haven't changed at all over time. We do have some variations though. SoG used to work for RoL/Hope, now people are using SoP instead to give it OTK capability. In testing, Dragons have performed the best, so you can use this one for good results: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/duo-decks/turbo-speed-false-god-farming-%28statistics-added-5-6-upped-cards-per-hour%29/
If you want a better winrate and slower speed (worse for profitability but nicer on your win:loss ratio), you can add more stall with an Improved Miracle and a Sanctuary in place of 1 Hope and 1 Tower/Pend.

Soap Hope as I like to call it can be seen here: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/farming-studies-and-statistics/the-return-of-fgei-%28for-v1-32x%29/msg1080638/#msg1080638
That version is unupped and I personally wouldn't recommend packing the Salvager. A 5th Fractal or another tower is better, for with Water mark you need even more Aether towers to get a fast Fractal. As you can see, not enough testing has been done, so we don't know if it's more profitable than normal RoL/Hope. I personally prefer the normal one because you get a big Hope up faster thanks to faster :aether, plus Soap Hope has an unnecessary weakness to PC.


As for your card base, CCYB used to work decently. It's not as good anymore, and it was never as good as RoL/Hope, but it's fairly fun for variety's sake. http://elementscommunity.org/forum/rainbow-decks/%281-24%29-cc-why-bother/
Your card base is fairly far from it though, but basically QT's and Snovas mean you can make any controlbow if you upgrade a few key cards they need. They work well in Bronze, Silver, AI4 and, to a lesser extent, Gold Arena. Some examples can be seen here in the spoilers for upped decks (FEVER and Bone Collector): http://elementscommunity.org/forum/farming-studies-and-statistics/decks-used-against-arena-with-stats-1-32/

Basically all the up-to-date info for every AI is available in the Studies and Stats board.

You're trying to do a very big jump here. If you neither have more upgraded decks nor you have the rest of your cards well-organized, I suggest you starting on easier targets than Fake Gods. For further suggestions, it would be also good to know how many spare electrum :electrum you have.

Thanks for the replies so far. I have 6.8k and can maybe sell 1 or 2 more upped cards. The other upped cards I have are pretty random. Some of everything. Most of them I'd like to keep cause they seem interesting (like those black things that steal quanta and turn them into black quanta) and I'm considering building decks with them.

On a sidenote, where does one get shards? I can't remember where mine came from, must have been around 3 or 4 years since I've last played.

Edit: What's Bronze and Silver? Didn't see anything with those names in the client.

Shards in Arena. Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum are the Arena leagues.

Or if you really like FG rainbows, try jashin's. Yes, a forum newcomer made the most up-to-date FG rainbow known.
(Too lazy to link to it; second page of FG recommended decks.)
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.

You are probably aware that the shards are now designated to different elements (as you have Shards of Gratitude already). The other shards can be quite useful to add to a deck (though not really necessary in most cases.) I recommend that you get a  speed bow deck and try your luck in the bronze arena a bit. Also you might want to check out pvp1 and 2 to see the most common deck types used there. The good ones can give you inspiration and get you back in the swing of the game.

Thanks again. Been playing around with Arena decks, it's a great and motivating feature.

As for the the SpeedBow, I don't have nearly enough upgraded cards it seems, as barely any of my creatures are upped.

Regarding the deck search, is it broken or am I doing it wrong? I've tried searching a card code with both, the built in forum and google search, but nothing ever shows up. I'd like to see if it's possible to build a deck around air Nymphs (like that FG's deck), seeing as I have 3 of those. I came up with the following, but from an experienced player's point of view, it's probably horrible. Anyway, just to get the idea across:



Or maybe I could make a new thread for this as it's kinda derailing the original content of my post? I don't know about the purpose btw, depends on what it's viable for I guess.

We have a [deck] [ /deck] code here to post images of your deck. It's much easier and doesn't require going onto imgur each time.

You could always go onto dek.im and post the code there as well

It looks like you were running scared girl's rainbow when you came back.  That deck is only good enough for moderate AI4 these days, and as you can see the gratitudes don't fit like they used to.

With 6.8K that's about enough for any unupped deck , good thing nbows work well in silver.  I suggest:

Play silver till you can get some more shards and recoup the cash, then move onto gold/fg.

I've been wanting to make a deck like that for days, as Rainbows are my favorite decks. But I just can't get my hands on an Arsenic. Is there any method to hunt specific cards at all?

Edit: Jesus, I hate RoL/Hope with a passion. It's so luck dependant it's ridiculous. Even that slow Firecell deck felt better.
