Hello.  This is my cheap deck thread where I would like you to post your favourite cheapest decks.
Here is my example:

Code: [Select]
5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i4 5i7 5i7 5i7 5ie 5ie 5ie 5ie 5ie 5ie
This deck only costs 375 Electrums and is quite an effective deck for newbies.

Please only post decks that can beat AI3`s.


Maximum Of Electrums Allowed To be Spent :  750

You have way too many pillars (21)--that naturally leads to a cheap deck, but also one that could be optimized further. You might want to try for more damage since you have excess quanta flow and also more creature control to capitalize on the congeal-shockwave combination. My suggestion:

-7 :water pillars, -2 toadfish, +1 ice shield, +1 freeze, +2 shockwave, +3 ice dragon, +2 :air pillar

If I could I would refrain from using toadfishes entirely as  :water creatures like the blue crawler and ice dragons are decent in terms of attack value/cost. You might want to consider separate cards for creature control and damage dealing, instead of over-reliance on the toadfishes which aren't exceptional at either. Of course, these would come at an additional costs of around 500 electrum, so it would be a further reach for newbies, but it'd help with the grinding of course.
