Red Bu.. Spider - It gives you Wings!

Red Bull Spider
- It gives you Wings!

I tested the new Wings card and improved Flesh Spider today in the Trainer (http://www.elementsthegame.com/trainer) today and came up with these two decks. They are very simple, made in 5 minutes, and have only been tested for about 20 times against AI3. However they are both very good decks and you can instantly see the huge potential in Wings-Spider synergy. I personally think something needs to be nerfed here because with 5 turn duration, Wings is just ridiculously powerful.

Anyone interested in the new Wings card and improved Flesh Spider, I suggest you go to Trainer (http://www.elementsthegame.com/trainer) and check out these two decks. Remember, you have to buy Wings from Bazaar. You don't get it with the "All Cards" button.

This one uses mark of to pay for Wings and Webs. Rest of the deck is a simple poison deck.

Nice job exploiting the synergy so fast  The second deck is great and works well but i think the first deck just needs more air quanta. If the opponent has a lot of airborne creatures then your in a very tough position needing to pay 3 every 5 turns and then you only have 2 quanta every 5 turns left for webbing creatures D:
Maybe add some ar pillars or a couple of damsleflies? if you got it right then it would speed up the deck hugely.
Just some thoughts. You can ignore me entirely if you want.
*edit* Hey i just did some extra testing with other decks and i came up with this:

these look good! Scaredgirl, you should use your deckbuilding skillz to work on this spider FG deck

it has potential...but we can't decide whether fractal or quint works better

what happens with the web skill when u use it on something?

[finkel]

mark of air just isn't enough to web enemy creatures ANY fuel Wings. The second deck looks more viable, though those four spiders are all very vulnerable to the vast amount of creature control (maxwell's dragons, mutations, rewinds, any lance or bolt, etc. etc.)

have you tested wings at all? it actually is enough most of the time, because you won't have to web everything, only the flying stuff, and only the big flying stuff on top of that. also you'll have some time in the beginning of the game to build up some
if the only air cards in a deck are wings (like the first deck) then just the mark is definitely all you need, having any more would just be inconsistent and unnecessary

Some creatures were given the passive ability Airborne, which means it can bypass the Wings shield. The Web ability removes that ability, so it can't get through Wings.

Im using the second deck and it is EASILY a lv5 farming deck that pars on the power of a fully upped mono aether rush...only MUCH better and efficient. Well done SG, well done. Now if someone will make a FG deck based on this with maybe some Phase shields thrown in... -ponders-
