Cool and fast deck to farm any opponent with 100 hp. Only used it in AI3 my self.

Strategy:
1. Play everything you draw but Ball lightning
2. When you have enough quantum to play both fractal and sky blizz get alot of ball lightnings and then sky blizz
3. Hit <space> and watch how 10/0 ball lightning kills opponent together with 4/1 damsels.

I think this would balance your quanta better. (You already have Damsels generating air, and Fractal costs more than Sky Blitz too and you also need it faster than you need Sky Blitz)

***TRIALS RESPONSE***

Well this looks oddly familiar. I remember making a similar deck which at the time couldn't use Damselflies as effectively as it can now. Feel free to check it out HERE (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20993.msg287923#msg287923), in the 5th match. Unfortunately it led to me losing the chance to become the 3rd Master of :air Air, but alas it was fun.

As for your deck, I'd definitely think that DarkGDude's version takes advantage of the ability Damselflies have to generate :air, however it lacks a key ingredient which is crucial for this type of deck, some type of defense. From his version I'd remove a Sky Blitz and a Ball Lightning in order to include 2 Improved Fogs. With this type of deck, whether you choose to slowly hack at the enemy or wipe them out in about 2 turns, you'll need some form of avoiding incoming attacks as this deck can leave you very vulnerable waiting for the cards to pull of the necessary combos.

I was considering that you should add some sort of PC to this deck, however I think it's more effective sticking to its original strategy, and that would require you to change your mark.

This deck makes a wonderfully thematic deck, and has been related to Zeus, as shooting down powerful Balls of Lightning, and I think you've done a very good job in presenting it. With the recent changes in Damselflies and with a little more defense, Zeus' deck became a little more dangerous.

I haz already built a pretty similar deck before and I can tell it's very fun to use, still both of your deck have a very big problem : why you use air pend ? I mean damsel generate air them self and you'll have ton of air quanta so you have to focus your quanta production on aether in order to be able to fractal quickly and kill quickly your opponent. Let me suggest you a slightly different version which need to fractal damsel before fractaling anything. Also I like sky blit but 4 seems too much you need only one to kill your opponent most of the time, also your deck will generate ton of air quanta and you only have sky blitz to use it, it seems a big waste to me. Also I'd suggest you to add 2 air dragon. This will give you a very good target to fractal once you have ton of air quanta and having 3 dragon + few damsel will OTK anything with a sky blitz. I will not use ay defense because I think this deck is very fast and need to stay that way. That's what I'll not pu any defensive card but you still may put some lightning, fog shield, wings or shockwave if you think this need some CC or if you find yourself beeing outrushed to easily.

Thx guys. You really took effort in your responses. I agree with all things you say.

I was going to use this deck in the eastern tournement that took place last weekend. The rules "No CC, only creatures that cost 0 besides fate egg.."


Unfortunately I live in Sweden and it started 08 00 in the morning, so guess what happend?
I hope there will be more tourneys soon. I still havent been in one yet.

Two tournaments happen on a weekly basis; no worry there.

Sorrt for posting this here, but now that you are talking about it... Can a player be in any (eastern or western) tournament?
