Cards you'll most likely win from the spin vs FGs

[smuglapse]

Since the spins are based on the deck of your opponent you can just use the percentage that each card appears in a FG deck to see its likelihood of being won from that particular FG.

These percents are based on the decks as listed in Teffy's post and are arranged from most prevalent to least.  Towers are listed last.

awesome stat smuglapse
though its weird to see inundation up there with the rest because its one of the least likeliest card you'll see being played by FG (or maybe theres a certain preprogrammed behavior aspect i'm missing...maybe it wont get played until you have >7 critters on board?)

and i totally miss RoL in my top 3, i'd say the order is Ray of Light, Twin Universe, Feral Bond

i notice explosion has a lot of showing but deck using explosion, by nature is harder to beat than say, deck with feral bond

[Daytripper]

I must have been mistaking about the gargoyle if it isnt in fg decks, maybe an old ai5 win.

I would say inundation is somewhat common: Neptune has it and it isn't the hardest FG. I've won 1 or 2. Neptune will not play the inundation if you just play 2 or 3 quinted units. After all it costs a lot of water quants to maintain it. Try a spam deck like ROL... Neptune will drown the units every time, making it almost unwinnable.

Heck you can get all of your cards from TA50 and upgrade later.  Much easier.

% of what exactly?

nothing in there said anything about the most likely cards you'd win from FGs
i should know because i read that lengthy article back and forth more than once (along with guide for beginner and other interesting articles in that now defunct wiki)

if you want a FG decklist, teffy made an awesome compilation here in this forum
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7919.0.html

You need to click on the FG's name.

Yeah, I purposely try to get 8 RoLs as soon as possible to make him play it.  It's equivalent to playing an Earthquake on his Water Tower stack and can slow down his dragon play.

wow...never knew theres additional info by doing that

wait, i think i've seen those stats page once or twice but it was long and forgotten
damn teffy you spoiled me with your much nicer fg decklist :/

[zse]

This topic made me start wondering what are the best cards you can't win from FG's. Well obviously you can't get Nymphs, Shards, or Pendulums, but of the rest this is the TOP5 in my opinion (in that order):
  Cremation
  Hope
  Improved Antimatter
  Dune Scorpion
  Aflatoxin

There's some other good cards too (some better than others):
  Ball Lightning & Mindgate
  Improved Fog & Wings
  Gargoyle & Voodoo Doll
  Mummy & Deathstalker
  Basilisk Blood
  Pandemonium
  Chimera
  Spine Carapace & Scorpion
  Luciferase
  Elite Anubis & Sundial
  Nymph Tears & Steam Machine

So basically there's surprisingly few GOOD cards that you can't win from FGs. The others, like Elite Skeleton, are so bad that I don't think anyone has really found any good uses for em.
