The Arena / Re: Minimally Upped Plat farming deck?

« on: January 23, 2012, 04:03:51 pm »

I made the intosis deck and after farming FGs have it fully upped.  I agree with you that it sucks in plat at least from my experience but if you use it to farm FGs (it has an amazing win percent, especially upped) you can get cards that you can sell to up your money to build arena farming decks.  My problem is the arena farming decks do not appear to be being upgraded and I have yet to see any that work well so I'm just farming FGs.  Less money but it works.

Completely upped, it owns.

Order to upgrade cards in?  Pillars first as in other decks?

Got all the cards to build this deck though most are not upped.  What would be the order in which to up this deck and is it currently one of the better decks out there?  I keep making decks to discover that they are no longer useful for arena/FG.  Example: Built firestall right when I started then discovered it was useless.  Then a RoL/Hope deck which still works its just so slow and boring.  Then built a rainbow rush deck and it's mostly upped and it's fun but between the two which is better?  Below are the rush and this deck with what I am using.  Is the win rate still 70% against FGs?  I had 0 luck but like I said, very few cards are upped which I know hurts it.

In-game Troubleshooting / Re: Chimera

Nevermind, I discovered my issue was with sundial and the stasis aspect of it though I swear I didn't have anything out when the chimera was sitting.  Seems to have worked now.

I just built the Instosis deck and it appears that every time I play Chimera it just sits and never attacks.  I thought maybe it didn't attack on the first turn it was played however last game it went three turns just sitting there not doing anything.  Am I missing something?

Ah, that makes sense.  I thought the way it was phrased was you could have up to 60 cards in your deck, not that it just copied everything.  That would explain why when I'm facing plat decks they always seem to draw the cards that screw me over when I thought they could only have 6 in a 60+ deck.  The odds that it happened and happened every game baffled me.

So I've been playing in Plat and I'm curious.  Do the decks made their not have to follow the rules of the game?  I've seen people running 8 copies of a card (and no, they didn't fractal it or copy it).  Just played a death deck who had 8 pests up.  Saw another similar deck where my RoL's got drain lifed 8 times as well.  Do they have a higher card limit in the plat league?

So far I'm having amazing luck (just not with the cards...) but have gotten about an 80% win rate today against FGs.  My question is, should I bother upping the pillars/pends or should I try and get started on a deck that would consistently fair better in either arena or farming FGs?

False lobo change a lot uppgraded ! fractal no you're right and upping pend/tower is a priority !

Oh and welcome btw hf

Honestly the saving of 1  doesn't seem to be that big a deal from what I've seen.  Now if only it let you use it multiple times a turn..that would be worth it.  Can you explain your reasoning?  I generally never have quanta issues in a game that is close.  I don't think it would have ever been the difference between a win and a loss.

Figured I'd register since I've been playing the game a fair bit and could get some help.

I basically read the forums and farmed to get Fahrenheit so I could make the fireball deck.  Turns out it doesn't work on FGs like it says but still got me some money.  Used that money to build the RoL/Hope deck and had terrible luck on FGs so I scrapped it and went back to farming HBs for money.  Tried building the RoL deck again and figured I'd try arena.  Been doing really nice in Platinum league with it and have gotten up to rank 14 with some new money.  Today however I was getting beat by all the poison/momentum decks so figured I'd try FGs and have had a great streak.  About 8 wins out of 12 or so but only 3 upped cards.

Anyway, can anyone give me some hints on if I should upgrade the deck below further and if it'll increase my win rate significantly?  If not I won't bother (Ex: Upgrading fractal and Lobo aren't that helpful in the games I've played to where they would make a difference).  Or, is there a better deck that would work for me?  I've been trying to get some pulverizers  but had no luck.  Is the best place to farm those in arena?

I'll do arena or FGs but seems like FGs are a better place to get cards whereas arena is a better place to get money.

And just to give everyone a wonderful laugh, I managed to get EM with 1/1 hp in platinum today.  See below.  I thought it was great.
