How to put a good use to your nymph https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=15349.msg196341#msg196341
« on: November 08, 2010, 04:26:23 am »
Today I won my first nymph (a grey nymph) and i can't seem to find many good decks that put that nymph to use. Any suggestions of how to put your nymphs to good use?

note: this is just a compilation of ideas for putting your nymph to use. They are also not my ideas but rather the idea of those who commented on this post

 :aether: just generally use to quint important creatures
 :air: CCYB variants, anti FG, anti lvl5. Also useful in an Air deck with fire mark (PvP).
 :darkness: Reusable CC, combination with Purple Nymph. small golems and phoenixes hate it.
 :death: Fills opponentĀ“s field. Anti FG, lvl5. Use malignant cells with chimera. Mutating malignant cells.
 :earth:  ???
 :entropy: Healing, combination with Black Nymph.
 :fire: Archangel, Fire Golem, CC.
 :gravity: Gravity deck, anti FG.
 :life: lvl3, pvp deck (Life Rush)
 :light: RoL -Hope. Mono Light ( lvl3, lvl5, pvp ).
 :water: Nymph decks
 :time: Time deck. Nymph is mid-range attacker + Hourglass.

deck that uses death and air nymph:

Death seems to be one of the weaker nymphs, seeing as you really only need one application of afla. Only deck off the top of my head that uses death nymphs is Yaladilae's Death is in the Air (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,5539.0.html)

If you could somehow make the nymph invincible, she might do good in a chimera deck. Being as chimera basically kills all the malignant cells, alflaing one before you chimera would give you another malignant cell. Its the only time I can think of her having a possible use.

Perhaps in a death/water, combined with flood it would make a more efficient board lock. If they clear their side of the board, you could always reapply and such.

But I'm reaching here. It needs a major buff.

Pity us people with death nymphs...  I have five nymphs total, two are death.  They are useless.  Good luck if you try to actually use them, but I've never seen a legit deck that uses them.  Even that thread by yaladilae states that the deck shown isn't all that good, and that is honestly the first time I have ever seen a death nymph included in a deck on the forums.

I put mine in my FG deck, since I like experimenting.  :)

It's really not as fantastic as it sounds. I just replaced the graveyard(s) with a single grey nymph.

IIRC, chimera doesn't trigger death events.

It doesn't.  It also doesn't gain any status effects that were present on the original creatures.

Also, Malignant Cells don't produce other cells when Aflatoxined.

But what is fun is that when mutated creature from malignant cell is killed, it will revert back to a malignant cell. Very nice with feral bond.
It also has a little afla icon thingy to show that it was mutated from a malignant cell.
