It's not the most competitive deck out there, but it's great fun. Tried it in the trainer for a few games and enjoyed it, so I thought I might as well share it.

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
7gk 7gk 7gk 7gk 7gk 7gk 7h0 7h0 7h0 7h0 7h0 7h0 7qb 7qb 7qb 7qb 7qb 7qb 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 8pp


?? cards are time pendulums.

The idea is to use precognition whenever possible, use nymphs tears on time pendulums (either phase of the pendulum still gives you a time nymph), because time nymphs are 7/9. If you want, you can use 1 or 2 nymph's tears on water towers, which can then be used to get more nymphs. Basically, this deck draws really fast, and it's pretty much impossible to get a bad draw. By the end of most games you have 5-7 time nymphs out and have drawn all your cards (or potentially could draw all your cards if you wanted to). Wins by 6 turns quite often, and if not, soon afterwards.

Nice idea. What about adding an eternity/photon just in case your opponent is resisting more than expected?

I played Ndul (Long lost Elements player) with a deck like this right after Nymph's Tears game out. It was very solid, although his was bigger and features flying Eternities as well as Hourglasses.

Something else I wanted to say is that this deck works very similarly to Puppy's  :water/ :light deck, just sending out nymphs beatsticks, but here, you want to use their abilities. Pendulums also make it work a lot smoother.
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

well, kinda hard for the opponent to do something unexpected when you're using precognition every turn  :))

and the only reason you draw all your cards by the end is because you know you're not going to deck out. If you think you might, just don't use those last 7 or 8 precognitions.

With Eternity, it will be a pretty evil lock.

But I encounter problem that it can't deal with creature control. The Nymph Queen die too easy.

well, I tried to make this deck (substituing a nymph's tear for a water nymph), but the game won't let me add more than 6 time penduli (treats them as perm and not as pillar)  :(

was it made in the trainer ?

You should be able to add more than 6. If its not working, try clearing the cache on your browser (should be an option under tools or some sort depending on  your browers, along with clearing history).

I like the idea of eternity, you could draw it really quickly and then use it to stall a bit, but i'm not sure how much it would be used, as it conflicts with the precognition abilities... but if you can find a way to make it fit in well (i'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult), that would be a cool addition.

As for CC, if you see that they have a fair amount of CC in their deck/hand, don't create nymph queens at all, just stick with the time nymphs.

Eternity sure have a perfect way to fit in. I think experienced players should understand what I mean Evil Lock with the cards mentioned. And I would like to keep the secret.  :P

and…you know…I can't just use golden nymphs. So I really hope nymph queen get a HP buff.
