Rainbow Decks / Re: Slow unupped FG farmer

« on: July 07, 2011, 09:31:54 am »

Some Idea in random order :
_ You should try AM instead of pandly
_ Doll ? you're kidding ?steal fit better I think.
_ need 1/2 more sanctuary
_ need +1 HG but you may lack time quanta

Doll was a mistake, its gone now, steal is not needed. Pandemonium actually is better against more FG than AM is. Its much cheaper, the problem with unupped pillars is that the AI will outrush you before you had enough quanta for AM.

More sanc will end up as dead draws.

Remember this is not really a CCYB, more hourglasses are not needed because it will easily become a dead draw if its not time mark.

Keep the comments coming. What are the more experienced deckbuilder think?

Deck Help / Re: I need help with my fire deck!

« on: July 07, 2011, 07:18:21 am »

Don't use photons, upgrade phoenix instead for immolation targets. Much better than photon.

Also I dont really like unupped crimson dragon, think phoenix is better.

Unupped dragon has more power behind it.

Hmm whats the reason of this?

i meant health, not heal-oops!  haha  anyway, why not use a skull shield if you're trying to get the condor + cat combo going?  that way, you won't need to wait for something with 30 hp to die.  instead you just get a lucky turn, and they die instantly.  even kills immaterials too

No it doesnt really work that way, the higher the hp the lower the chances. Whats worse it doesnt guarantee that it works. Also since its a rainbow deck you want to use as much element as possible.

Rainbow Decks / Re: (1.27) CC? Why Bother? - unupped

« on: July 06, 2011, 11:30:19 pm »

Chaos Lord: impossible, you need him to steal your sanctuary

You can blow up the shield then kill him

Assuming he doesn't Steal/Destroy your Pulvy first of course.

This is where having enchant artifact comes in handy

Try my slightly upgraded variant. I'm assuming some people at least have electrum hourglasses as their first 2 or 3 cards upgrade. Enchant artifact is pretty much removed to focus on killing FG without permanent control, this is to ensure at least you will have a win after 10 or so matches at least. Dimensional shield is there for staying power/elemental mastery. Eternity helps against some FGs like miracle and destiny. Sanctuary is needed for unupped deck otherwise black hole or devourers kills. Shards can be substituted with enchant artifact or purify.

From my experience:

Akebono: hard, this is where you want antimatters, your call
Chaos Lord: impossible, you need him to steal your sanctuary
Dark Matter: impossible, he seemed beyond reach for unupped pillars
Decay: very easy elemental masteries, if you force him to steal hourglasses and shields instead of pulvy or sanctuary, he is slow (100% win rate in 6 matches)
Destiny: moderate, need eternity
Divine Glory: almost impossible due to explosion
Dream Catcher: beyond impossible
Elidnis: easy, or moderate if he had good draws
Eternal Phoenix: very hard
Ferox: easy, depending on draws
Fire Queen: moderate
Gemini: hard, need luck
Graviton: very hard
Hecate: hard, need EA
Hermes: impossible
Incarnate: very easy
Jezebel: very hard need EA
Lionheart: hard, preferably need ea for pulvy, much better with aether mark
Miracle: moderate, takes forever -.-
Morte: hard needs purify
Neptune: super easy, 99% chance of winning (100% win rate in 15 matches)
Oblterator: hard, too fast
Octane: almost impossible
Osiris: easy
Paradox: hard, depends
Rainbow: impossible
Scorpio: moderately hard, easy with purify
Seism: impossible
Serket: almost impossible, need purify, permfrost

Decay, Incarnate and Neptune are pretty much guaranteed win most of the time, Osiris is easy too. In fact losing to Decay is almost impossible at least one EA.

Something like this works too, putting mind flayer to counter massed momentum, usually gravity based deck, slight CC but i find more effective than antimatters since it removes other skills too.

Deck Help / Re: First Upgrade - which card? Life/Death deck

« on: July 05, 2011, 07:15:58 am »

The SoG's multi-deck ability certainly is a wonderful aspect, and I've been considering it for some time, I just wasn't sure if now was optimal. Thanks!

I second this. You should upgrade cards thats useful for multiple decks in case you get bored of your current deck. Upgrading cards that are useful to farm FG is a good idea too, like electrum hourglass and such. Then once you have a fast deck to farm FG and tons of money you can upgrade cards that you like.

And uh, if you want to move up from AI 3 i suggest not using mono life as slight creature control could kill it. You will definitely need permanent control and creature control as rushing dont work very well against opponents with higher hp than you.

Game Suggestions and Feedback / More slots for permanent card

« on: March 26, 2011, 09:20:40 am »

This game seriously needs more slot for permanents. "There are no permanent slots available" is really irritating.

Suggestion: Stack cards with same name.

This is what I mean:

p.s. This is why I hate aether.
