"Random" Deck https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=20839.msg265379#msg265379

I've been calling this the "Random" deck, because it started out as a Mindgate deck meant for Top50 farming and I just started adding in random weapons and Flying Weapon/Animate Weapon along with a handful of other rares and such, and just want to see what people think of it. It works on Top50's a majority of the time, still, but now relies a lot more on lucky draws than it originally did... And criticism is expected, so don't expect me to get mad if you think that it's total crap. And before anyone says it: I know having 60 cards is most often not a good idea, none of my other "decks" (if this one can even be called that) have that many cards, I don't believe.

It's nice to show off all your weapons, but as a viable deck it needs alot of work.

My first idea would be to either make it a novabow and 30 cards, or add at least 4 hourglasses to speed this deck up.

I would also remove all weapons except eternity (do you happen to have another eternity or pulverizer?) and add some creatures instead. You can remove the animate weapons with 2 quintessences, 2 steals, but that all depends on what deck you want to play.

There are alot of decks on those forum you can "copy" but it's hard to give advise on this one since it's a bit messy/hectic. My main advise is to either go with a time (mark + hourglasses) or snova (entropy) deck.

First: It wasn't meant to be a way to show off all my weapons, my bad on that one, if it did seem like it. Second, to answer the question: No, I don't have a Pulverizer (yet) nor do I have anymore Eternity's. And finally: Both of those suggestions sound like they're worth trying, even though I may not do it myself, just because I like how random this deck is and still semi-decently works. But it's still appreciated input anyways, and I may just have to try making it an Entropy deck and going with the latter of your suggestions. All other criticism/input is still welcomed, if anyone else can give advice that is, because yeah it is a bit messy and hectic.

Maybe I put that down a little harsh but I knew you're not trying to show off. What I meant is it's easier and faster to deal damage by creatures then with masses of flying weapons.

For starters:
- 1 Titan
- 1 Fahrenheit
- 2 Flying Weapon
- 2 Parallel Universe
+ 2 Otyugh
+ 2 Quintessence
+ 2 Lava Golems

This way, you have otyughs for control, Lava golems for some awesome damage and the possibility to quint two of those. (eitehr the oty or golem).
Fahrenheit won't be doing great damage in your deck as you don't have mass fore quanta. Titan is ok but costs alot, Oty is better imo.

I think this would make it a bit more stable at least.

Thanks for the input and clarification Jappert, I think I may try out just that, since I have all those cards already. And the random SoG was meant to have more than just one, but I never got anymore yet, so it just stayed with the random 1. Thanks for everyone's input though, again.
