When farm animals attack! https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=12114.msg150832#msg150832

Okay, I know there are those out there that will likely be unhappy with this thread, but what the heck, here it is.

Challenge: build a farm deck that has the following requirements:

1) Only 30 cards
2) Has 2 rares, 6 copies each (total of 12)

Then, make the deck a biter.  ;)


I know, I know, there is sentiment that farm decks should be non-biting, and in some way I sympathize. However, I find biting farms to be fun, even though I sometimes lose, simply because it was a challenge. I've certainly lost to my fair share of cows and chickens with attitudes and I've not been happy with the loss, but it was still fun though.

So, post what you use for a farm deck or what you think a farm deck should look like that bites. Perhaps post a biting farm deck you'd like to come up against. Point here is to have fun and throw in a little challenge.

 ;D

Here's mine, although I will likely tweak it a bit:

Yeah, farming shouldn't always be too easy :P

Nice thread.

When I put biting farms up in the past, I usually went with 6 copies of 1 rare, but only 3 different cards in the deck besides pillars.  But I like this idea too.  Unfortunately, because you can only have 6 Animate Weapons, a lot of these decks will use Shards as the 2nd rare.

Here are my ideas for all the rares (and yes, they all have reasonable QIs):
Discord + SoD
Code: [Select]
6rm 6rm 6rm 6rm 6rm 6rm 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 6u5 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 74f 74f 74f 74f 74f 74f 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2Entropy Pendulums.  Maximize those BHs by increasing your HP.

Arsenic + SoG

Yeah, now that I think about it, might be best just to say "this is my biting farm. It has 'x' rares, giving you a great chance to get them if you win." That way, maybe we can expand the the realm of biting farms ;)

(Not technically a biter, but it can beat you through deckout pretty easily.)
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.
