The blank cards are Scorpions (upgraded Forest Scorpions).

As the title suggests, this is primarily a charge-type deck. Scorpions can be played early if against no CC, or you can hold at least one in your hand if against CC. Fractal...and watch those poison counters stack. Of course, Scorpions aren't as good as poison as Deathstalkers are, so I developed on the Scorpions' strength: the ability to be fractalled effectively.

Unupped version (no rares needed):

looks ok

This looks quite effective, I might consider making it a little larger and adding in some Phase Shields to stall a little longer.

That was my original plan, but Phase Shields and Fractal don't clash very well. Besides, the enemy usually dies a few turns after Fractal is used and the Scorpions are loose. So, I changed to Spine Carapace. The Feral Bonds don't look as good to me now, though, since the enemy does die quickly after the Fractal.

after seeing the word 'charge' on the title, i figured that this would be a deathstalker deck with momentum... but guess not.

i'd switch the bonds to heals. bonds are not so great in rush decks. yes, you would get tons of scorpions, but the chances are the game would be already in your favor once you get out about 10 scorpions. after that, the game is likely to end in one or two turns. if you have a feral bond out, you would heal 20 hp. you can heal the exact same for a much lower cost with heal.

Yup, after testing the game in trainer, I figured that game would end really quick after the Fractal, which is why I didn't put Phase Shield. Now I have a decent EM deck, too.

EDIT: I put in one Jade Staff. The good thing about the Jade Staff is that it allows you to get one more Scorpion from Fractal if you have more than 80 hp - you wouldn't want to wate your heal.

nice  i love these  new set of cards are gonna be better than fractal and when phoenix came out

[nilsieboy]

looks good,i'd take another jade staff to draw it faster

[BloodlinE]

looks ok but easily countered..

[mightyjewfro]

sure this deck will work but the main problem is that there are no shield busters, steals, deflags, momentum. that means that there is no hope one a shield of any kind goes up

I'd probably change mark to aether and use life pendulums.

This was made before pendulums were "released." I might tweak it later.
