Alright folks, I'd like to point out that whatever girls says (or has said) will affect whether or not people vote for her in Phase 3- stuff like this isn't really necessary

Yeah, I completely blame that last one on RNG screwage. Other than that, great games.

Game 1: rainbow rush- Loss

Code: [Select]

52q 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rm 5rm 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 77j 7ae 7ds 7gm 7q3 80gIronically, this is the only phase 2 deck I spent considerable time on- even going so far as to get other peoples' help on it! Only saw the frog, recluse, and crawler during the first game, and a bunch of time pillars/pends (plus a precog or two), low number of creatures hurt this deck.

Game 2: rainbow rush- Loss

Code: [Select]

52q 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rm 5rm 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5rr 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 77j 7ae 7ds 7gm 7q3 80gYeah, I used it again. I figured he'd think I'd use a different deck, so I stuck to my guns. only saw the arsenic, frog, and recluse this time, but my dragons decided to play. On the last turn that mattered, I got the ONE card that wouldn't help me- the quicksand.

Game 3: entropy duo- Win

Code: [Select]

4vd 4vd 4vd 4vl 4vl 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rr 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 7q0 7q3 7q8 7qb 7qbI decided that my rainbow was too much of a fail with only 10 off-element cards- so I decided to go with something else and fake kuro out- I knew time's two most-used creatures- dragon and scarab- had higher attack than HP, so I decided last-second to put in demons instead of antimatter and nymphs. Since he used a blitz deck, I clearly made the right decision Of course, RNG decided to have a word with me and gave me a handfull of entropy stuff and no scorps until I had 15 cards- otherwise it wouldn't have been as close (if I'd played my discord earlier and not tried to fake him out it would have probably delayed him a bit longer).

Game 4: RoL/hope trio- Loss

Code: [Select]

5la 5la 5lk 5lk 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rk 5rk 5ro 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 7jp 7jp 7jp 7jp 7q0 7q5 7q5 7q8 80i 80i 80i 80iAgain trying to fake him out, and figuring he'd go with pharaohs, I decided to run a RoL/hope deck- hoping he'd think I was trying to chain shields. As always with light/time, I put in dials so I could push up my off-elemen and upgraded card allowances- and it might have worked... except I drew THREE fractals first turn and had both hopes in the bottom 10 cards- kuro slowing me down by rewinding my RoLs didn't help much either. This game I completely blame on RNG screwage, but that's how elements is.

Epic games, though I really should have scrapped that rainbow earlier- it would need 50% off-element to work, I think.

EDIT:
I forgot to mention... I was gonna use this if I won the fourth game:

Code: [Select]

5bs 5lk 5lk 5lk 5oj 5oj 5oj 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rk 5rk 5rl 5ro 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 7ac 7ac 7af 7af 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q4 7q5 7q5 7q8Modified version of my FFQ/hope from my match with belthazar. I felt it would be fitting to end with the deck that sealed my earlier victory- whichever way it went- but sadly the RNGod decided it wasn't to be.

For a moment I looked at what you said about decking out thinking "But False Gods draw two cards a turn..." and then I remembered that they only draw one if their hand is full. The AI would have to be programmed to continue to use mindgate as it gets low on cards, though- currently it sees them as a sort of hourglass, and stops using them at around ten cards left. The only other problem would be if she immortalizes everything (ironic), since she would then be unable to bounce a creature to keep herself from decking out.

For the reward- Upgraded relics sell for 1025 , plus there's the chance of anubi, eternities, mindgates, phase shields, bolts, and (though relatively low) towers/pendula as well. mindgates, shields, and relics would be most common (five of the first, six of the latter two), and only phase shields are common FG prizes (gemini), though relics are obtainable through dark matter (gravity nymphs) and dream catcher (purple nymphs)- but both of those are very difficult. overall I'd say it's worth it

Most variants of CCYB use aflatoxin and antimatter these days- the former would destroy her ability to use the opponent's creatures against them, but the latter wouldn't affect her too much- especially since she probably already drew three copies of it! RoL/hope would probably fare a bit worse than against gemini- she can pull her shields faster thanks to her nymphs, and the electrocutor won't help if all the creatures are immortal Shak'ar would probably own her, though, unless she pulls an eternity after the doll comes out and rewinds it- her nymphs hit hard and the AI isn't that smart.

Thanks for the input, I'll be sure to make that note about mindgates

I was playing around with a mitosis/pandoll deck in the trainer when I noticed that my quanta was still being scrambled by a frozen discord. Luckily I got screenies just in time
And yes, the AI infected my doll

Definitely DD. Any Master of Death needs to have upped recluses. Best card to upgrade in Death's stable. Also it's nice to see the decks you guys made especially since you guys have plenty of intel on my successful style of play (throw a deck together and pray to the RNG).

Why does that sound familiar?

Trial Battle Archive / Re: Trial of Time: SpikeSpiegel 3 - Memorystick 2

« on: January 17, 2011, 09:03:44 am »

Those were awesome games. this time I pasted my decks into MSword (except the first one), so I remembered most of them this time

Duel 1: Darkness duo

Code: [Select]

5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rj 5rj 5rk 5rk 5rk 5rm 5ro 5ro 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 7t6 7t6 7t6 7t6 7ta 7ta 7td 7td 7td 7tdAntimatter and neurotoxin vs vampires and pests (the latter never showed up), seriously bad match-up. Obvious outcome is obvious.

Duel 2: Darkness duo

Code: [Select]

5rg 5rg 5rg 5rm 5rm 5rm 5rm 5rm 5rm 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5um 5um 5uq 5v8 5v8 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q3 7q8 7t6 7t6 7t6 7t6 7t8I decided to change my deck around, but decide he'd expect me to use a different duo- so I used darkness again. never saw my nymphs, but my pests did a good job and kept him from rewinding my dragons at the last turn. The fate egg + nightmare combo was pure genius.

Duel 3: Light duo

Code: [Select]

5ll 5ll 5ll 5ll 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 7jv 7jv 7jv 7jv 7jv 7k2 7k2 7k5 7q0 7q0 7q3 7q8I decided I wanted to use another deck, so I pulled out my crusaders and dunes- those dials are epic, since they let me put in upped miracles :3 very close game, managed to topdeck a miracle when I had 6 HP left, and let my sundial chain cut, since I had more leeway. Managed to kill him with a burst of three crusaders and two blessed dunes after letting the toxin and eternity wear him down.

Duel 4: Entropy duo

Code: [Select]

4vl 4vl 500 500 5rk 5rm 5rq 5rq 5rq 5rr 5rr 5rr 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 6u2 7q0 7qa 7qa 7qaI had two wins at this point, so I pulled out my strongest duo to this point- though I used scarabs instead of dunes, for more rushing potential. I got an epic hand with a discord, several pends, a scarab, and a few CPs... and then got hit by a desync. On the rematch I had only two pends, a bunch of CP, two scarabs, and a nymph... and my hand quickly filled up with the remainder of my six CPs :< bad draw + his quicksands = owned

Duel 5: Fire duo

Code: [Select]

5f9 5f9 5f9 5f9 5fb 5fb 5fb 5fb 5fb 5fb 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rh 5rn 5rn 5rn 5rn 5rn 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q1 7q1 7q1 7q7 7qb 7qbRemember this deck? I added some more dejas and took out the pends... but didn't get enough quanta (that, combined with his steals), so I was really slow bringing out anything other than dejas. I did, however, get 4 or 5 of my potions and all of my immos, so I killed almost all of his creatures as they came out... except at the end. No potions + low quanta + rewound anubis + nightmared dragon (again, brilliant!) spelled my defeat. It was suprisingly close- if I could have killed his dragon, I may have managed to pull a win.

Epic games, and brilliant strategy. Good luck in your future matches

It only needs to quint the first anubis or aether nymph, and then they can quint each other, the golden nymphs, and anything which it gets from mindgates. And glad you liked it, I poured lots of love into it

He was a god; she was but a mortal. It was supposed to be taboo... yet here I am. My mother was denied the afterlife, my father disgraced. I would have been killed... I should have been killed. But I escaped- their weapons could not harm me. I had to learn how they thought, so I could survive. Eventually, I was discovered... but I had found a way to slow them, and I escaped yet again. When they thought I had starved, I gathered their armies, along with my few friends, and brought them to their knees. Now, I am one of them. I am Kebechet, daughter of Anubis and his lover- an Aether Nymph.
