When I was grinding out electrum with my fire deck, I despised  more than you can imagine because of those dang earthquakes.  wasn't nearly as much of a problem as it is now though xD

FAILED!

Speaking of fail, according to this topic http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11691.0.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11691.0.html)

Some creatures can not be a result of Hatch/Mutation: any flying weapon, Ash, Malignant Cell, Chimera, FATE EGG, Devonian Dragon, Scarab, and Immortal.

I guess those claims of having a fate egg hatch into another egg aren't true.

My most epic hand was back when I was farming A.I. 3, trying to grind out enough electrum for a basic FG deck. Opening hand had 4 burning towers, an ash eater, an immolate, and a crimson dragon. 12 damage on the first turn

You start dreaming about it... Seriously, I had a dream that had something to do with a train. I was on top of it with what was supposedly the oracle and he was telling me that if I collected enough shards on the ground he would give me a shard of divinity card. o_O

Alright cool. Didn't want to face him anyways xD Would've had to grind out at least another 1.4k to make the proper deck lol

Actually, I'm kind of wondering the same thing 0.o
I guess it's in the profile somewhere.

Nope, just checked. Unless it's under 'Awards'. Try searching through your posts.

General Discussion / Question about the oracle

« on: October 23, 2010, 01:41:15 pm »

Okay, first of all I just want to say I got my first nymph from the oracle today *is happy ^_^* Now that that's out of the way, I thought of something last night when laying in bed. When you spin the oracle, you get the chance to know what the next FG is right? What if it tells you what the next FG is (in my case Seism) but you don't fight him/her/any FG that day (had to finish finals yesterday so I didn't get a chance to fight), does that affect the spin for the next day? Today I got a '-' for my FG, but could it be Seism? I know I could just go ahead and find out instead of asking, but I'd like to know if I'm passing up the chance for a strategic advantage.

Okay, so I'm going up against Ferox and it doesn't start too well at all. About four or five turns into the match, he has several chicks out (one with adrenaline) some ray of lights, some toads, some tree dragons (not the jades. I can't remember the name xD) and a feral bond. I have.... 6-7 pillars, two empathic bonds, a fallen druid, two boneyards and some hourglasses >.> I don't remember exactly what happened, all I know is that I had 4 life left and he had 200. I draw. Sundial. Next draw, another sundial. Haste from the first one pulls a third sundial. Somewhere in all that I ninja his feral bond and play a firefly queen. Next turn... Dimensional shield!! I nearly cry with joy. Two turns later, I pull the most epic draw of my life: Rain of Fire. The ONLY one in my deck too xD what seemed like a doomed situation turned into his field being near empty and my field filed with tons of skeletons, a fallen druid, and a firefly queen. But wait, it gets better.

This is the first turn of mutation

Second turn got me a 14/8 black dragon with burrow.

And if you thought it couldn't get any better (because I surelly didn't) I pulled this as my third mutation

(http://imageplay.net/view/m7Gbd97960/comebackprt2)

I was stupidly high off of shock at this point XDD So not only was this my first victory against a FG, but I managed to go from 4 life all the way to win with an EM Sadly, I didn't get anything from the spins, but hey, can't win'em all right? ^_^

Deck Help / Upgrading suggestions?

« on: October 20, 2010, 03:20:55 pm »

Okay, being fairly new to the game (I will consider myself new until I manage to take down a FG at least once xD) I'm not too sure where to start when it comes to upgrading my deck. I'm using a general FG deck and already up'd a pillar, but now that I've thought about it some, am I starting off right? Is there any wrong way to do this? Basically what I'm trying to ask is what should I make sure gets upgraded first?

Code: [Select]

4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 52n 52n 52r 55r 55r 592 5c6 5c6 5f8 5oj 5ro 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5up 61t 621 621 6qq 6u6 7q5 7q5 7q5 7q5
I got this deck from SG's post over in the newbie section on how to get rich in 1 day yadda yadda yadda. Anyways, in the post, it's recommended the hourglasses and the elf get upgraded first so I went ahead and up'd those with the spare electum I had at the time.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, I will be grinding AI 3 with this deck until most, if not all, of it is upgraded. Sure I could use a speed deck, but this deck is too much fun xD

Yup, learning the in's and out's of the deck xD That plus trying to get some more electrum to up some more of my cards before I seriously try taking on the FG. Seeing as I can't play that much these days because of finals, I figured why not kill 2 birds with one stone lol

Heh, that's a good idea, actually. Just be sure to include a reverse time- I have been saved so many times from eternity at the bottom/not enough quanta to fund eternity because of that (and also from forgetting to rewind, since I tend to use rewind and eternity after drawing my last card so I have more leeway)

This deck seems to be an out right kill or epic fail, depending on your luck. Countless times I've been down to under 5 life and pulled a shield/chain of sundials and ended it with EM XD

Why not just use two eternities instead of a rewind?

Because that would be a strain on the quanta income. I'm thinking about exchanging a piller or two with a green/mark pendulum seeing as those two are the most needed in this deck.
