Time deck for level 3

[TheArchetype]

Hello, I am new to this game and I chose time as my element. I am enjoying it so far, especially the Fate Egg creature, but my deck does not win against level 3 opponents very often. I would like help to change my deck so I can defeat level 3 opponents consistently.

Code: [Select]

4sa 4sa 4sa 4t3 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5ri 5ri 5ri 5ri 5ri 5ri 5rk 5rk 5rl 5rl 5rm 5rn 5rn 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq

First of all, remove the Quantum Pillars. They are very inefficient when all you really need are and quanta (if you're using Scarabs).

I would recommend removing the Anubises, since they are rather expensive to cast, and don't have enough attack power to warrant their cost (since it's not really worth using the Immortality ability for AI3).

Next, add 2 more Scarabs (since they function much better in groups) for a total of 6, and change your mark to Gravity and switch 3 Time Factories for 3 Time Pendulums so that you can use their Devour ability with greater ease.

Now that your Mark is Gravity, you can switch Dagger out for a Hammer.

Finally, we'll remove two copies of Fate Egg to get you back to 30 cards.

Here's a build that you can improve on with more testing:

Code: [Select]

4t5 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5ri 5ri 5ri 5ri 5rk 5rk 5rl 5rl 5rm 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5t2 5t2 5t2

Thanks for the input. I kept the Quantum Pillars in because I wanted to use both the skills for the Scarabs and the Anubis, but now I can see you've made the deck more efficient by removing the Anubis factor completely. I will try this deck and see how I like it. Thanks again.

Do not be so hasty to drop the quantum pillars. Fate eggs can hatch into creatures with very useful skills that you want quantum for.

[TheArchetype]

Actually, I've changed the deck somewhat. I've gotten over the fact that Fate Eggs do not hatch into dragons 100% of the time, so I took them out. Here is what I use now:

Code: [Select]

4t5 55q 55q 55r 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rk 5rk 5rm 5rm 5rm 5rm 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rq 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2
This deck can counter the variety of challenges that the level 3 opponents give you. I win 90%+ of the time.

Fate Eggs are nice in concept and lots of fun - but not really a winning strategy - nice to see you notice that.

You are running 11 pillars and 5 pendulums - nearly half your deck is quanta sources - I is probably too much.

Unless there is a specific reason to be over 30 cards - your deck should be 30 cards - it reduces the odds of you getting a bad draw - right now it is not unlikely to get a hand full of quanta generations and nothing to play in your opening hand.

If you really like anubis (he is expensive and not really needed) but if you like him anyways - remove some of the pillars in the deck for nova - they produce multiple quanta and in an unupped deck can speed up your deck by up to a turn.

I'd suggest getting down to 12 quanta sources - that gives you a little play for some more creature control - Reverse Time is your friend - if you have completed the 500 point quest and have eternity I'd include that as well.

My time deck is a control & card-advantage deck.  It controls the opponent's ability to develop by putting their creatures back on their deck, denying them the opportunity to see new cards, while getting to see your own cards much faster with hourglasses.

It uses:
Time Mark
15 Time quanta sources, split between pillars and pendulums just to make it a little more resistant to Earthquake. 

2 or 3 Hourglasses - They are the highest priority for upgrades. 

Eternity - I have 2, and use both because I like having a backup. 

2 to 4 Reverse Time - With these and Eternity, you can continuously reverse an opponen't creatures back to his deck.  Of course, they can still resummon and hit you, but creature powers can't be used first turn and you can choose the order in which you reverse them in order to hide the more dangerous creatures deeper, hopefully leaving a 0 power creature as their top card.  Besides creature control, this also denies your opponent the ability to see new cards.  Catch them quick enough, and almost any deck is stunted. 

5 or 6 Devonian Dragons - They hit hard, that's all.

I will occasionally use Procrastination - A creature in a time bubble cannot use its special power, so it can give me time to reverse them in addition to slowing offence.  While it's true that continually reversing the same creature means it can hit you each turn as it's resummoned, the ability to stunt the opponent deck is worth it. 

I have a gratitude and a divinity shard, and I'll occasionally use those.

Finally, with all the hourglasses you may quickly see the bottom of your 30-card deck.  With all of your quanta-sources out, you should have enough to summon and reverse (with Eternity) one dragon each turn, until the rest of your dragons finish the opponent off.

i think you have a pretty good deck there. the scarab idea is good. if you were to grind level 3s till you get some Pharaohs and exchange your dragons with them then you may find yourself with quite a winner

if you ever have trouble with quanta then check out -http://elementswiki.co.cc/articles/empirical-evidence-to-support-qi/ (http://elementswiki.co.cc/articles/empirical-evidence-to-support-qi/). it is immensely helpful and will grow your deck in power. have fun

actually if u want a good time gravity in my opinion the best is unstoppable dune scorpions.

Mark of Gravity
6x momentum
6x dune scorpion
2x procrastination shield
12x time pillar
1x eternity
3x time pendulem
