An answer co all the comments so far:


Thank you for all the comments and corrections. I'm just a n00b, after all
Eventually I'll integrate them in the first post.

No I wasn't making any of these up. I encountered them in the chat or on the forums.

Yes, as far as I know,  Hax Shield is used for both shield types, but Fog Shield is played more frequently is it's encountered more.

Yes, a bit of general internet jargon never hurts, as it can cause confusion too.


Also, would SY with the authority put this into the newbie section? I feel thie belongs there.

Hey, great idea posting this list, Acsabi!  Thanks for taking the time to put this together -- I think it's a great idea, and will be helpful to a lot of new players and casual forum-goers alike.  c: 

I like how so many people are getting involved and adding things to make it better.  I think the deck abbreviations are especially important to add -- I know that's something which comes up a lot.

Then there's CCYB, USEM, RoL Hope, CHMD, DEMA, MGAL, Etc. etc. are various decks.

Sorry, I don't know them... (besides CCYB and  RoL Hope, which are already in the list)

If somebody explains, I'd be happy to add them to the list.

Also, I promise  I'll organize them one day (maybe in alphabetical order or something).
