- 1 elite pegasus,I like that suggestion because everytime I test it, ends up one diver just ends up doing all the work anyways. Would make the deja vu/RT elder a bit tougher though.
- 1 Snova
+ 1 blessing
+ 1 CP
perhaps?
Fortunately I believe that the vulnerability regarding Frogs can be rectified by using Chaos Powers on them over other creatures (I generally found this was helpful while testing BOOOM! so it should work here too).That's true. And those should be the first two cards you should be able to play, so it should work great.
Sounds like old Shak'ars revengeful crusdade across the 6th plane willMight have to grind some FG's with shakar's before 1.27 is live! Poor doll.
soon meet some unfortunate resistance ... Lets hope that Shak'ars
favourite target Neptune doesn't learn how to congeal + shockwave
the lil doll.
Tea is good, depending on the actual time you want to allot to FG-farming
and the planned release of 1.27, I would suggest you get to it in the live-game
while 1.26 is still up. You should have the electrum for those 5 BBs and some
dolls back in no time.
Speaking of which, when is 1.27 going live? Anything halfway tangible in the pipe yet?
No matter what I find Graboids>>Antlions especially because time quanta isnt usedHave you tested? I found that in PSNbows, as great as it sounds to run pegasi or graboids, creatures that generally run off a SN to launch, but can be played off a pendy fail. You may be right. I've been backlogged with so much testing lately, but wanted to get the idea out there. I think it will work well with some tweaking.
Okay, I'm going to plop these stats here for now:Thanks for testing. I'll be interested to see how the rest goes... I feel like there's a pretty good "feel" learning curve with the black holes and I took my 50 game stats after testing about 100 games. I'll be interested to see if yours improve or mine get worse. I'd imagine there is a balance somewhere in between.

Well, this is what I gathered. The 19TTW came from a combination of not drawing any Pends during my first draw and facing the Pandemonium Voodoo Elder...which is designed to stall you into submission. I had a second game where I drew no Pends, but I was killed before killing the AI so this was not included in the TTW. With ~2.8% chance of not drawing Pends in my first hand at all, I wouldn't be surprised if this occurred again seeing as how the AI are designed to stall more so than win now. Being the AI3 grinding addict I am, I managed to shave 3 minutes off of the total time spent, which consequently made my IG Score Eff higher. I do not keep track of time spent outside of the game. I have a few concerns about the deck build itself, but I think I'll continue for 150 more games before coming to a conclusive decision.
how do quick sands work against elders? is it actually worth it?I would imagine, upped denial decks seem to perform really well against unupped decks. I can test this sometime in the next week and tweak it. A little backed up with testing atm because I made too many decks at once.
That deck looks kinda similar to jmdt's decks but no matter.Yes, I would definitely call myself a disciple of his. Nobody else seems to make EM decks close to as well as him. Lately, we've been finding that PSNbows are some of the most efficient decks for score gain/hr. If you want to check out a couple of my better PSNbows I would suggest:
Why antlions though? wouldnt shriekers/graboids help since u got time quanta?
Data set complete.Wow! That's a whole turn faster then with Cocks. I will have to retest for my efficiency study. People really need to get on board that its electrum gain/hour that really matters!Code: [Select]6u2 6u2 6u2 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6u3 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 6ve 713 77g 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ae 7ai 7ai 7ai 7ds 7gm 7jr 7tb 7tb 80gGames: 50
