Gravity towers are in there to try and get a first turn momentum dune scorpion so all there pillars/towers poison them

Again, relying on only 5 creatures is definitly not a good idea, I´d suggest the following:
-3 Gravity Towers
-6 Rewinds
-1 Dune Scorpion
+6 Precognitions
+2 Time Towers
+2 Devonian Dragons

Now that Neurotoxin has changed, some flying eternities might help a lot in here.

Swapping the gravity towers for a pendulum or two would provide you with a bit more time quanta (you don't need much gravity to feed the momentums anyway). The time quanta could be used for eternity or a pharaoh or two giving you endless creature control.

I'm quite sick of people posting 8 versions of the same hope deck in different threads, so i wont start a
new one for my version

Four Dune Scorpions and four Gravity Pendulums.
Had three pendulums but wasn't getting enough Gravity.
When I put in a Gravity Tower I didn't get enough Time the next match.

Really aught to test it a bit more so I know which pillar to remove, but it works fine as it is.

[Sarathas]

Just reduced it to the most needed cards ans this is my result:

First ??? are Gravity Pendulums, second are Dune Scorpions.
Works fine against AI3 and in PvP1.
Disadvantages are Devourers and rush decks, of course.
Procastrination for stalling, and Eternities are there to let the enemy be stuck in a time bubble

This is a more  -heavy deck of the same breed.

Code: [Select]

Concept is blocking 6+ hp creatures with grav shield and eating the smaller ones with oty, while the dune scorpions eat away with momentum. added BH for quanta bleeding and small healing, and bubble shield for the remaining time quanta.
I'd like some thoughts on improvement, or if it is a feasible variation.

i'd take out the procrastination for another gravity shield.

[lynx655]

I am experimenting on this variation right now, and it seems more reliable. I took the otys out so it is unupped (but 2 rares...) and PVP1 ready. No healing is the problem.

to patchx94: grav shield doesn't do anything against critters.

[Pineapple]

With the otyughs you had, you were able to eat most things that got past gravity shields..
And if "gravity shield doesn't do anything", then why not just switch the 2 out for 2 more procrastinations?

[lynx655]

Back again with this. I decided to modify the first version instead for more scorpions. It has a ttw around 9-12, so not too fast, but still. I think it would work better as a speedbow instead...

Bearing in mind your cc and neurotoxins effects i disagree with the bh's as you want them to play either high health creatures which are useless v grav shield or low health ones to power up otys. Either way it fuels the toxin allowing for potentially faster wins.
