FG Proposals / Re: Evaporator

« on: November 26, 2010, 09:18:10 pm »

too much inundation
they dont stack, 4 is the standard issue for permanent such as this but i see 6 is max if you want to be sure
8 is just a waste of deck space
i'd put RoF back in, maybe 4

Oh  i was just looking at other FG decks for card copies, since neptune had 4, i guess for a bit more anti-PC or faster drawing. Adding back in RoFs is not a bad idea though

FG Proposals / Re: Paradox II

*sigh* Limit is 6 (12 after doubling) of a card, with paradox (the original) being the sole exception to this. Why not mark of time, ent. pends, SNs, momentum, adren, dejas, and glasses, perhaps with BE, to make use of the entropy production? I'd like to see a more creative name, too

Well since paradox was the exception and this was based off of paradox I decided to have a bit over 12 for this deck. Yes, BE is def a good idea, I was also thinking pends but then felt like sticking to the FG tradition of only using towers 

I'm pretty sure that any new FG zanz introduces will follow normal deckbuilding rules (indeed, I've heard that paradox's deck was a mistake, due to being copy-pasted into the game or something) As for tower/pends... it's not really a tradition, since all the gods were introduced before pends were. I suspect that some of the gods might be re-introduced using pends, if they're more useful to the god than  towers (for example, paradox)

Heartbreaking additions to original post have been made  for more radical thinkers  . Except in the deck I built, I don't think pendulums would be necessary as the original paradox seems to run fine without extra quanta generation besides its mark, buuuuut. yeah. Maybee life pendulums. Oh gosh, too many possibilities.

Y'all are definitely right, looking over at the deck a few times, no control indeed would end up having a very whackable FG. EDITED

Okay so this FG could have gone on different paths, like large bonewalls or incorporating thunderstorm and air, but I didn't feel like having multiple deck images in one post. What I was trying to do was have an FG with the main goal of large condors and aflatoxin as creature control. The AI might have to be implemented to use plague at the right times with twelve plagues, or not.   

EDIT: Made the FG kind of stronger, previous version was much more vulnerable to damage. The addition of air and stackable bone walls should help the FG. Damage would still be centered on making fat condors, and the AI might or might not have to be implemented to thunderstorm at the right time. Kind of based off of Neptune/Morte, kind of not

Inspired by the awesome quadruple machine gun deck which can be found here http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11894.msg157230#msg157230

The mark of entropy because of supernovas seems kind of ridiculous, because it is, so I added in chaos powers. But then those don't work too well with the adrenalines. Again I am unsure about the pillar count or if there is an overload of buff cards, but oh how fun it would be to be an FG like this. I think.
TUs could also be an option, but I'm not sure how badly that would make the FG's draw

EDIT: Chaos powers kind of ruin adrenaline, and there would be an excess of entropy quanta, so BEs have been added along with discords for more entropy spending/ a bit more control. Oh it's also 50/100 cards now. In general, more control + wiser entropy spending.

EDIT: or perhaps more adrenaline oriented:

I took tower counts by look at other FGs so I'm unsure about that    and yes, this deck still breaks the rules of deckbuilding but  poor parrydox needs his 8 deja vus

EDIT: and just for Memory Stick:

Reasons for stuff: No time towers since paradox seems to work fine without them, and there are entropy pendulums though it may look odd. BEs for some control  , and TUs have been added to make up for the less amount of deja vus and a bit more indirect control. I kind of think having more than 6 deja vus kinda adds to the god though  but yeah

Feel free to comment on deck. I'm not sure about the tower count; I think i might have too many water pillars.

Since the FG would be more damage oriented, I didn't put much control, but just to be annoying I guess explosions, more shields, or lances could be added. FGs also seem to tend to have random creatures so i just put some higher-damage creatures in as well. Steam is fun (:

EDIT: +4 Explosions, +1 Fire Storm, +2 Inundations, +1 Water Tower just in case, -2 Abyss Crawlers, +1 Arctic Dragon, +1 shield
Again thanks for suggestions ^_^

Fractal bombing ^_^ hopefully there won't be instances where you run out of lightning balls
Indeed a very fun deck, minus phase shield clogging, but that is only sometimes a problem

I like

+2 towers
-4 TU
+2 spiders
-2 immortals
+2 shields

immortals bother me >.< I like more damage, esp if I end up facing some shield.

Deck Help / Re: Air/Time/Light fused together. What could go wrong!?

« on: November 19, 2010, 07:50:19 am »

Maybe 2 or 3 fog shields since you have a 40 card deck, and 6 fireflies since you will probably end up waiting for more light quanta
and what Dm1321 said 

I think if you take out the pegasi and just have blessed wyrms, or take out the wyrms, add light quanta generation for blessed pegasi (lower dive cost) the deck could be more damaging, it doesn't seem to have that much right now :/

An interesting mixture of elements especially the addition of time

I would say fire shield to fire buckler, you'll really need the buckler if you're not looking forward to dying after upping SoGs

try looking at this http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,14479.msg195900.html#msg195900 with a few more shields and deflags, maybe minus the rage potion and plus a rain of fire, and you'll have a decent ai5 fire stall if that's what you're looking for...
