im not winning many games could someone possilby help me with this

There is a nice strategy guide in the post for the upped version.  I linked this in my first post, the strategy for this one closely mirrors that one.  Someday I will do a rough, basic strategy guide since the players using this deck tend to be on the newer side of things.

What is the policy on pet's?

I would guess don't count the games with pets as help.

Yeah.  Pets are a no-go, so just think of fun, creative uses for them while you are waiting for them to go away.

Rainbow Decks / Re: Hourglass 1 and only!! (voodoo deck)

« on: May 28, 2011, 11:41:35 pm »

Problem is, you would have to wait for 3 supernovas to get the combo (voodoo doll (2) and cloak (3))

As Root says, when you play the deck, its a pretty rare occurance that vs. a FG with no PC to not rip through 20+ cards in your deck.  I believe a cloak would be worth taking that chance of not drawing 3 SN because it should significantly improve your win rate.  It may even have the small added bonus, should you draw it together with hourglass, of protecting that hourglass for a few turn vs. FGs with heavy PC.

While testing this deck for the FG Efficiency Study (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,25609.0.html), I started really thinking about the deck.... the version being tested right now is the nightmare version (zse's mod).  I love the nightmare for its shutdown as you are launching your evil voodoo plan, extra heal to avoid weapons potshotting you over the top of your sundials, and to get a little more damage as well, but I was curious as to how it would work with a cloak?  It seems like voodoo's biggest enemy is RT, and those fg's typically don't have PC for the most part.  This might be a really good addition to help ensure a chance at beating a larger population of fg's.  After I'm finished testing a few other decks for the study, I could check on this mod if ppl think it works well.

Booster Draft - Battle Results / (Team C) kirchj33 3 - (Team A) TStar 1

« on: May 26, 2011, 10:48:30 pm »

Pretty solid deck advantage for us again here.  Funny story is how TStar took sleeping pills before playing the first three and we had to continue the end today.

Looking at Team A's vault, we decided TStar would try to counter by bringing CC so it would be best to go creature heavy to counter.

Same deck used all 4 matches:

Code: [Select]

590 590 590 590 590 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5ro 5ro 5ru 5ru 5ru 5ru 5ru 5ru 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 5t2 77g
1st Match: WIN

I got a good rush going and he only pulled 2 UG's before dying.  Never saw a farenheit (which I'm assuming was there) or Rage Pots (which I'm assuming now weren't).  His 30+ fire quanta went to waste.

2nd Match: LOSS

Nice deck change, pulvy kept me from preventing any reversal of two FFQs that got out of control quick.  A turn 2 shield, 2 rage pots, and 2 sancs kept my damage from out racing him.

3rd Match:  WIN

2 Tower draw for TStar meant he never got the quanta for rage pots.  A shield came turn 4 or 5, which was much too late in this case.  Amusingly, he also fell asleep mid-match and we had to finish today.

4th Match:  WIN

I didn't think it was possible, but he had another 2 tower draw.  He did play a 2nd turn shield, but just didn't have the quanta to get his deck going early.  I quickly had 4 creatures on the field.  He Rage potted, played pulvy, sanc, an FFQ, and an elf.  I was pretty concerned that he was gonna get on top of things with his elf now rolling.  Fortunately, on the last turn his elf gave me some 11 ATK creature and I drew another ghost for the win.
