I think it would be nice to have a type of mini oracle where you can visit as many times as you want a day or perhaps just 5 times a day, that you pay 100 a visit, and you find out what the next fg is going to be. This would allow for a little more strategy that would allow you to change your deck around a bit, and would also encourage players to keep a larger card base so that they have those additional cards for in case they know what they are up against (purify for example if you are fighting scorpio next).

There are obvious implications however, knowing which fg you are going to face would make it a little easier to prepare for it, making the fight that much less difficult. Its just a simple suggestion, perhaps a 25% chance of being wrong, then you get in the fight and are completely unprepared?  What do you all think?

Yeah I'm sure many people would find this useful, but it shouldn't be game breaking. Knowing which deck you are going to face is a huge advantage... perhaps somewhere down the road each false god could have several decks? But right now any reusable prediction shouldn't really tell you any more than "You will fight god A, B, C, or D."

It bothers me, though, that while this sounds like it would encourage people to go build new kinds of decks it actually wouldn't. Against the false gods unupgraded cards tend to be useless, so it'd still be best for most FG farmers to just stick to rainbows, occasionaly changing a card or two based on the prediction.

I would definitly make decks dependent on the fg im fighting. A\gainst  scorpio id use a very heavy heal light deck with purifys thrown in there as well. Against morning glory, id use a stall deck with tons of phase shields. Believe me, If I knew i was fighting them, then Id make a deck for it.

This would be way overpowered because for each god there would be a diffrent deck and the win rate would be 90%+

not nearly, some would have a bette win rate (especially scorpio) but you also have to get the time to get upped versions of the cards you need as well. Fighting with a whole bunch of nonupped cards would be pretty hard against a fg, even if you know which one its going to be.

And like i said it needs work, may only be for 2 times a day even, just an idea in progress that id like to get feedbak on improving and balancing

I like your idea

but....
you can pay 30 to find out, or pay 100 to find out, change your deck, and then still get beating by the FG (since sometimes FG can be ridiculously strong)
For example, Destiny hatched 6 egg in 4 turns, 5 dragon 1 nymph against me! Even if i knew i was destiny, i cant do much against that =(
