False God Proposal: Ares

[TheOwner]

I do really like this deck much better but I can't help it when I say:  You can only use half of the weapons.  I also like the idea of how the nymphs have been added.  Maybe more like this?

Code: [Select]

6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 71a 74c 77f 77i 77i 7aj 7aj 7gp 7gp 7gs 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n5 7q8 80e 80h 80h 80s 80s
Maybe add some nymphs?  Gravity and entropy would be nice with this not sure though.

Might as well drop Poseidon, actually.  That card, like Quicksand, only really matters if you get it out early.  Can sub in another Pulvy, which is probably the most important weapon in this deck.

And on second thought, strike the PAs.  They'll probably just be wasted on the weapons, and PA doesn't transform into quint when you fly a weapon (exception: morning glory).  Those shields are nasty enough without PA, especially with a total of eight.

That drops this false god deck to 35 - 70 doubled.  Very deadly on the draw, methinks.

This is why I like you.  You always sound calm (I don't know how) and offer suggestions instead of saying its a failure. +1 Karma for you.

Back on Topic: What do you think about tossing in a few more nymphs? Making this an 80 card deck instead?  I was thinking Gravity, Entropy, and what else?  Maybe two Entropy 3 Gravity? or 3 Aether?

Nice to get a compliment instead of attacks for a change, thanks!  Durn internets.  I am not giving you karma as thanks or quid pro quo, I am giving it because you are a person who speaks out when you have something positive to say.  That is rare.

Make sure the nymphs add to the deck's concept, not just make it stronger in general.  Every false god is very, very conceptual.  I don't think gravity nymph would be a good idea since we already have one false god that features that nymph's effect strongly.  Also everyone who runs anti-FG rainbow decks would have you lynched.  Entropy nymph is the only other one I can see adding, but that clashes with Eternity, and would also be a major headache on top of the big headache this deck already poses.

Best stick with aether, then.  Make this a theme flying weapon deck like you wanted.  Deck should be small anyway since your intention is for it to crank out three-card combo setups...

[TheOwner]

Okay but with double draws just 10 more cards (already doubled) won't hurt it.  Dare I add one more Aether nymph? or is it perfect the way it is?

[johannhowitzer]

You could, it would be more reliable drawing them.  In fact I wasn't sitting 100% comfortably with only two in there, but it was subconscious.

Deck Updated

Now I just need SG or zanz to see this.

[johannhowitzer]

I'd put the updated deck in the first post too, with a note that it's been updated since it was first suggested.

[TheOwner]

I already have haven't I?

[johannhowitzer]

You must have been in process when I posted, I checked and it had the old OP. 

[johannhowitzer]

Never underestimate the power of merely-halfway-stupid people in large groups.

It's been a while since I've looked at this post and I have to say it looks pretty good now. This would probably work

And now I laugh in haters faces..... I am sorry.... Thanks anyways

I'm messaging SG now to look at it
