Weekly Featured Cards poll - Light

[Nume]

Very nice analysis. Just 1 other minor correction: You say that Divine Glory is based around flying Divine Glories, but the card is actually Morning Glory.

[Bloodshadow]

just one correction, flying Morning Star has 7 HP as shown here :-

Whoever did the Light cards in the new wiki failed. I'll go correct it now.

I finished the article at 1:45 AM last night, so yeah... Will also fix that.

BTW...

The featured card is chosen!

Golden Hourglass | Electrum Hourglass

OK, I know popularity vote sucks. But I'll fix it next week, all right? The poll next week won't say "favorite" anymore.

Gah... I guess it's time for me to write the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay-overdue analysis for Flying Weapon... Like 6 hours before Phase 1 of the Trials was due...

[snipp]

Phew... This is THE longest analysis I've ever written, at 1900+ words. I'm gonna upload it just like this, since I really need to go to sleep now. I'll add the three boxes tomorrow...

Very impressive work again Bloodshadow!  I'm shocked that you were almost nearly able to put out a ~2k article at 2 AM last night. O_o

But that said, here's something I don't agree with:

" Eternity 4/8 | Eternity 4/8 – Good
Eternity is often considered to be the best weapon in Elements, because as of now it is the only card capable of keeping you from running out of cards. However, if you want to use this weapon for its anti-deckout purpose, then one Eternity alone will suffice; multiple Eternities will better serve as creature control for your opponent. With several Eternities you can lock down your opponent and prevent him/her from drawing any useful cards, but the quanta consumption for this combo is very heavy. Eternity is good when Flying, but it’s not the best."

The bold part to me feels off. If you can deny a False God two of their creatures that they're going to play EACH TURN (because their A.I. sucks) without worrying about your Eternities being afflicted by creature control/having the Eternity's ability cost reduced to zero with a shard of readiness, then having one or two Flying Eternities is probably a very good card to have on the field to manipulate your opponent.

Of course, it's just an opinion, and I'm sure lots of people will say I'm wrong, but that's how I feel. 


EDIT: ...yay for Hourglass? (I voted for Eternity, despite what my avatar supports)

That combo requires Eternity, Flying Weapon, Quintessence, and Shard of Readiness, so it's not the fastest in the world. Multiple Eternities might be powerful, but honestly I'd rather use a single Eternity with Protect Artifact.

I updated the poll. Can't believe I didn't do it earlier, when the element for this week is DARKNESS, my FAVORITE element...

Anyways, I'll probably (re?)write the analysis for Golden Hourglass tomorrow or something...

[kobisjeruk]

ahh my favorite element...so many cards to choose from

just wanted to point out golden nymph is left in from the old poll

What are you talking about?

I voted for Devourer.

[kobisjeruk]

i predict devourer, steal and vampire will be the top 3 votes seeing as they're the epitome of theme - using your opponent resources against them

[Kuroaitou]

I personally voted for Liquid Shadow. It's one of those alchemy cards (like Adrenaline), that appears to have a very basic use and intention, but can be used in a variety of other ways to really mess up your opponent's strategy up.

Guess which three Darkness cards I analyzed for the previous Trial of Darkness?

link to the post?

edit: nevermind, found it (great minds think alike and all that jazz)

[Ant-n-ero]

vampire, as you guys said, because it not only damages like every creature, it heals you too! therefore saving you the effort of using heals/SoG/Holy Flahs etc, as these are much better (in some situations ofc)

otherwise i'd have voted for the shield, muchos annoying >_<
