Oracle : Ferox

[Beforememory]

Used a combination of the Rember's un-upgraded deck and Elbirn's mod of it, did great, I agree that if you have them the pulvys are more reliable

Twinsbuster's  deck for EM + 2 upgraded cards = win. 

Still, it came within a hair of losing (<5 hp) for a while since Ferox can drop epinephrine on leaf dragons/photons whenever it chooses which will chip away early while you're waiting for your first couple of nymphs/antimatters.  This forced me to use BE later than I would have liked so it took till the last turn before deckout. 

I upped what I had laying around.

EDIT:  30 cards risks deckout since the firepower comes late and there are a ton of Feral Bonds to contend with.  Ironically, having a phase dragon for a pet was actually a bad thing since there was no easy target for BE which cost me the game today (deckout with Ferox at 30 hp)--because I could only get one BE creature going later in the game, I couldn't tear down the FBs faster then he could replace them.  For this reason, probably going to 31 or 32 cards (more pillars?) would be a bit safer.

This one won't be an option for some people, but if you replace the nymphs and use more copies of pandemonium, antimatter, shards, etc, it will probably do well enough.  I used what I had, but modify it to fit what you've got.

Diamond Shield shuts down much of Ferox's offense, and a lone purple nymph completely wrecks his day.  Sit on your bum until you have 500 hp.  Make the kill with deckout or void shards.  You can antimatter your own creatures with a nymph to prevent kills before you have max hp.  Don't worry about the jade staff wrecking your EM; just save a stoneskin or shard of divinity to heal yourself on the turn you make the kill.

edit: blanks are shards of the void, 3 unupped 3 upped; like I said, I used what I had :p

I used Rember's deck with two pulvies, and it worked great! Only drew one butterfly effect and didn't get much chaos quanta for awhile, so it would have been a lot riskier if I didn't have a pulverizer. Still, I think it would have just taken extra dim shields (I ended up with 1 unused in my hand and another one buried somewhere in my deck)...you unupped deck creator guys are amaziing.

I used this with what ups I had (two dragons, 1 tears) and two entropy pends swapped for water towers. The only thing between me and a win was a few play errors, and even then I was only one turn away. What I did wrong: Not BE'ing my virus pet (used it instead...on a frog), and using quanta for water nymphs instead of dragons (although that may have really helped.

What I'll be using next time:

This works well.  I ended up using my pet auburn nymph as BE target once I had 2 purple nymphs established since the dragons were late in arriving. She worked full time until about the last 4 turns in removing the army of bonds and staves, but added some BE help with a double-AM dragon as well.  Nearly lost EM since a leaf dragon showed up on second to last turn, but I antimattered my dragon (and the leaf dragon) to give me one last turn for perfection.  I went with 33 cards (added a purple nymph) but could probably have saved myself some of the grief by just adding a permafrost instead (negates the photons/leaf dragons from screwing the EM.)

[ddevans96]

Yeah, this is going to be one of those counter decks that always runs my patience thin. Oh well.

[ddevans96]

Got Ferox again today. Round 2:



Much better. Won a Ray of light too, which is just free electrum for me :3

[ddevans96]

Had 5 cards left with the win in hand. Decided to go for the EM. Had to keep anti-mattering my own creatures to do it. Didn't factor jade shield in calculations. Lost by deckout.

I'm going to prick my legs off with a fork now T.T

FYI, you should throw in a Micro Abom or something if you get a Spark as a pet. -_-

[ddevans96]

lol, yeah.

I usually just try to antimatter a purple nymph, BE it, and then antimatter it again with another nymph if I get a pet I can't BE, since I don't want to mess with the quanta balance or add another card...but putting in a Chrysaora for fully unupped decks or something might be good.
