Religion / Re: How did you choose your religion? Or was it chosen for you?

I was born in Spain. As you can assume, Catholic religion is choosen to almost every kid. Anyways, last 30 years have changed a lot the panorama. Now there is no more religion in public education, and there is almost a 20% of muslim that came across last 20 years.

Good idea.

I love Mindgate, but it's a kind of slow to play. This card would bust in speed.

Rainbow Decks / Re: Jamaica Grinder AKA another 30bow rusher

« on: November 09, 2011, 12:48:20 pm »

This deck is the basis, except i deck 30 upped cards, so i leave some unnupped pilars.

For arena version, i take out shard, as IA plays it in early game and we want to play it at mid/late game after 2 supernovas.

I don't have real stats. Wins allways in bronze. Can farm other leagues, i got lots of cards in plat, but the deck is not unbeatable in the 2 big leagues.

Now i play with nightmares as oracle card. Sweet

Gold League Decks / Re: the gold league pledge

« on: November 08, 2011, 12:08:28 am »

A question:

i got Nightmare on Arena.

What deck am i supposed to build if i want to be competitive and get some extra cash?

Ghostmare works really well.

that would not be fun. Think flying weapon/nightmare, fly a weapon and nightmare it, that way even if your opponent can play it, they could usually only play one.

Yeah those animate weapon and crusaders are really nice. Nightmare would be a good stack for oponent

"Removing any deck entirely from the league increases the league's predictability and thus decreases fun"

I don't agree. For me fun is:

#1 win a card in a spin
#2 win with my deck
#3 win with arena deck

Obviously i do enjoy playing or playing vs creative decks. It's a kind of fun, but the time those decks don't really aproach a minimum level of competitivity, why should i invest time and electrum in inproving a deck that is not a pro deck?


If you want a simil from the top CCG: Those who play MTG knows there are a few top decks in the metagame, while some weird/creative decks come across for top8 sometimes.

In elements there are more pro decks than in other games, i think it's wonderful.

Deck Help / Re: What deck should i upgrade?

« on: November 07, 2011, 06:32:35 pm »

I got the suggested RoL hope. And i actually won some matches. Still lost more though:p.

Just wonder how many RoLs i should make on average before i should fill the rest with dragons.

Depends on opponent, but usually around 13.

13 as an average, When i play miracles or slow healing decks (empathic bond etc), some less, like 9 or 10 RoL.

If there's no CC on the other deck, with a few dragons you can deal.

If you play miror, you have to pray for lobotomizer, the race is on lobotomizing RoL and enlow his hope.

Lovely deck

RoL Hope is probably the best semi upped deck to build to farm FG. You can improve the rest of the deck quite fast. Don't try the deck in arena, there are many CC decks.

2 Lobotomizers are enougth.

FG Proposals / Re: Etherius

« on: November 07, 2011, 04:58:50 pm »

I think this deck lacks supernovas and electrum hourglass.

Nice philosophy, i would put some sanctuaries ass well to prevent black holes and quantum stolen.

sanctuaries stop dissapation shield from functioning.  the supernovas are a good idea, the hourglass is not since he wins by decking you out.

Damn sanctuaries then.

Did you test the deck vs Rainbow?
