Oracle : Graviton

[ddevans96]

Actually drew wings this game....all 4 in 15 cards. That's all I saw, because I couldn't get 2 water quanta until the second to last turn T.T

This unupped version of the OP can lock him down and get EM's occasionally.

Is it reliable enough for a newb who builds this to get a net expected profit from using this once?

All it takes is one or two upped cards and they are set, also EM's do happen with this deck.

I've tried this deck a few times and lost every times. I just can't ever seem to draw the cards that I need to survive. Either I don't draw mind flayers or sancts and the momentum creatures kill me, or I can't get out enough damage to kill him fast enough, or I never draw the quints and can't send anything out or he'll kill it immediately. Alternatively I get several of my starting towers exploded, and can never get the quanta I need to play any cards.

This deck is not reliable at all. I have played 10+ games with this, even upgrading some cards*. I couldn't win a single match.

*) 1 Electrum hourglass and 1 Quantum pillar.

Just saw the update in OP.
The one with SoSa worked well!

[jsrjohnny]

Poison Dials also works perfectly well.

(First deck currently in the OP)

Why does this deck not have a luciferin or some other way to gain the last hp after a late-game miracle?

[Higurashi]

Because it's already kind of hard to win with it. As such the cards are focused on winrate and not EM. You could plausibly replace an Unstoppable, since the healing would help, but it's a little risky.

Poison Dials also works perfectly well.

Yes it does - I've gone 2-0 with Pdials this week.  Reid4891 put the percentage at 95% (21-1) back in version 1.31.  I'd imagine it is still similar to that.

Just beat Graviton with this (mostly)unupped deck.

Requires a good draw so your hand doesn't fill up without the needed novas. Used the chaos power buffed wardens to kill/delay everything that had momentum while the voodoo dolls tanked everything else.

Any non upped decks?

[Jonny]

I just went with this half-upped variant and won!

Won very easily with Oty+Blessing/Miracles, but if I go again, I'm going with a SoFo and a Luciferin
