« on: April 07, 2012, 04:35:12 am »If you want to start now and don't have rares, you could run limitless speed FG OTK. Just make sure it's the rage elixirs and the light dragon that you up first. A version of it with a different OTK combo was the precursor of Instosis.I have 37 rares.

« on: April 06, 2012, 05:56:39 pm »Depends on how you view it. Liquid antimatter is terrible at winning- just look at its win rate. But it excels in speed, which makes it one of the fastest grinders. Speed > Winning, here.You say it's good but I had 600 electrum when I started grinding with Liquidmatter at FGs.It reduced to 30.

« on: April 06, 2012, 03:47:21 pm »I have 7 Arsenic.Anyway,thank you guys but if I lose,,my morale gets really bad.So,is Liquid good enough?I think the current view of FG farming is the following:I'd agree with this, some people suggest Flay 'Em instead of RoL-Hope or SoSa-Dial instead of Instosis (but requires 9 shards and 2 arsenics).
Start out with Liquid Antimatter (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=17730). Your win rate will be low, but games will be fast. Sell cards you don't need for farmer decks and keep those that you do. Do this until you get at least 9k electrum for RoL/Hope (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,14312.0.html). This will allow you to farm gods a lot better. The next step is Instosis (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,32309.0.html), but it needs to be mostly upgraded to work properly. You will also need Shards of Readiness for it to work (at least 3) for which you will need to farm the Arena.
I may be wrong tho.

Rainbow Decks / Re: The 1000th SN-bow (ttw: 5.75) [AI 3]
« on: April 02, 2012, 03:57:50 pm »5.75 TTW is really good but actually..I didnt get point of adres? Can you tell ?
I love the ttw study and Rainbow Decks. So I tried to make a SN-bow as fast as possible.
It doesn't matter how many SN-bows I see, I'm never getting tired of them.
I did only 101 games with it, so the stats may not that accurate:
Games: 101 | Wins: 100 | Losts: 1
turns
3 ---> 1
4 ---> 10
5 ---> 39
6 ---> 28
7 ---> 15
8 ---> 2
9 ---> 2
10 ---> 3
ttw: 5.75
I'm glad if someone wants to test it more or give me hints how to improve it.

Tutorials / Re: Money Management
« on: March 26, 2012, 06:06:12 pm »A little while ago an experienced, well known player asked chat which cards he should upgrade next. He'd built up some excess electrum and was looking for some versatile cards to spend it on. He told chat that he usually tried to stay below 2k electrum... which floored me. Newer players often ask either the same question or questions about when to sell cards, so I thought it'd be worth writing a post on the subject of money management.
First let me say that there's nothing wrong with however you want to invest your hard earned electrum. This game is for fun, and nobody should be able to tell you that buying a life-size stormtrooper replica is wrong if you really enjoy life-size stormtrooper replicas. But for players who want to accumulate wealth quickly there are two rules of thumb.
Please note that it has historically been very important to get a fully upped AI3/t50 grinder and a fully upped FG Grinder. To reach these goals you probably shouldn’t feel bad about selling currently useless upgrades to up cards and make the decks you grind with more effective. After that point, though, you enter a wealth accumulation phase.
Rule of Thumb Number One: Never sell upgraded cards unless you have more than six copies, and never sell unupgraded cards unless you have over 12 copies total (unupped and upped).
Suppose you’re accumulating wealth and you decide you’ll never play with Aether cards, so you sell them all. If down the road you enter a PvP Event or a Tournament which requires Aether cards, you’ve paying about a 40% markup over each card you sold. And the waste adds up quickly.
Why six and twelve? Because the most copies you can have in a deck are six and you can’t unupgrade cards, having over six upgraded copies is superfluous. At the same time having ten unupped Flying Weapons and two upped Animate Weapons available means you can upgrade an additional four if you need to and still hold six unupped copies. If you win an additional upgraded copy you can sell an unupped copy and still be positioned ideally.
Selling cards is particularly heinous with rare cards that can’t be bought. If you sell your Tridents and tomorrow someone creates a new FG deck using the card, you simply can’t make the deck until you find more Tridents. That goes double for nymphs which can only be given by the Oracle or as rewards for Tournaments and Leagues. Resist the temptation.
Rule of Thumb Number Two: Never buy or upgrade cards unless it's necessary.
Suppose you’re accumulating wealth, you've now come into 9k, and you're considering upping six Flying Weapons because you think you'd like to play a Flying Titan deck down the road. If you upgrade them for 1500 each and then win upped Animate Weapons before you need them for your deck idea, you'll sell excess copies for 1157 each. Which means you've thrown 1500 - 1157 = 343 electrum in the garbage for each. And the waste adds up quickly.
A number of players buy all unupped non-rare cards as soon as possible. I agree it'd be nice not to have to click over to the bazaar whenever I'm missing a card I need but you have to recognize that you're paying a substantial convenience charge. For each unupped card you buy, later win, and sell the excess copy, you spent about 40% more for that card than you needed to. And the waste adds up quickly.
Another important reason not to upgrade cards without reason is that having electrum on hand gives you versatility if you suddenly need something. Put another way, if you have 45,000 electrum, you have enough dry powder to use any fully upgraded 30-card deck you'd like. By not upgrading cards you effectively have access to all upgraded cards should the need arise.
In conclusion too many players complain about FG grinding and then turn around and throw electrum away by buying, selling, and upgrading cards unnecessarily. Many veterans follow the above rules of thumb; I know of one who currently has 500,000 spare electrum and fewer unupped cards than upped cards. Follow the above rules of thumb to maximize your deckbuilding options.
I got 2 Upped Water cards from Halfblood.Tears and Lance.I am sure that I wont use'em.So,Can I sell them?

Aether / Re: Too Many Balls!! (Upped) (Fun) (AI3)
« on: March 25, 2012, 05:27:01 pm »All decks have no way against something. That doesn't makes them less valid.
But the adding of phase shields makes sense. I'd say 4 of them do it.
Me too! -.-'

Rainbow Decks / Re: DarkGrab-Steal I Mean [BRONZE][PVP]
« on: March 25, 2012, 05:26:13 pm »Main problem I see is that you NEED a nova if you want to evolve a shrieker. This will probably slow down your deck since you need a nova and graboid each time you want to evolve it.Yes,I told it already.Only problem is this.

Aether / Re: Too Many Balls!! (Upped) (Fun) (AI3)
« on: March 25, 2012, 04:15:05 pm »Here's the Deck
Strategy:
1. When you have enough quanta for fractal play all balls in your hand, then fractal one and play the rest but one (IMPORTANT)
2.Continue spamming balls with fractal but keep in mind that you need one in your hand to fractal the next turn!
have fun
18 Pillars for 6 Fractals.Too many.Just add some Phase Shields.By the way:This deck has no chance against bone walls.
