I'll sign up too. I'll edit the post later when I make up my mind about which element I want to join. If I forget, ask the automated overdriven armagios to call me  :)

I hope I don't forget about the precise time this time around..

If you have one shield up, use this card, then attempt to play another shield, would the game know whether you want to overwrite your old shield or place a new shield in the "weapon" slot? And if you have two shields on, would the game know which one you want to replace?

(apologies if it's already been answered somewhere)

that game is supposed to be casual?  :o

Osiris: Control: Eternity, Scarabs, Rewind
Very easy. Just draw for the permafrost and then some sogs then deck it out. If you need to, rewind the fallen druid continuously (it won't take long). It can be fun to just play a quinted oty and eat what you can (don't play boneyard though since then the scarabs will get something to eat and do more damage), but usually you'll end up decking it out anyway. Once you destroy it's two eternities (a great way to do this is steal one of them), rewind it's unstoppable creatures. You may have to rewind at the end for a bit, but at least you'll win. Difficulty: 3.5/10, But a little long.
It seems to me that you never played against Osiris with this deck. It needs a very lucky draw to be faster than the Elite Pharaohs, usually the scarabs are bigger than Oty could eat them. Your shields not working well enough because of the Momentums, I say the chance of win is no more than 30-40%.
Actually, he is really easy with this deck. The creatures arent strong, your stategy for this is simple. Get out a permafrost, rewind his momentumed creatures, and you will deck him out. Very HIGH win percentage. One of the easiest Gods.
I know that's an old post but now Osiris is trickier with both this deck here and with CCYB. You'd have to first get the frost shield, then get pulvy, kill all his cats, and THEN you are free to rewind your druid or whatever with eternity. It might be just because I have only 4 SoGs but most games I don't draw all 4 until it's late - and with 3 shards and the shield up I regen just about as much as what Osiris is dealing..

Am I perhaps missing some tactical detail about dealing with Osiris with a deck other than rol/hope?

Third game I had one health left with 4 poison counters, and had 1 more damage on the table than he had HP left, it couldn't get any closer  :P

I'm not big on forum participation yet, but I've already heard the opinion a significant part of new card ideas find it hard to move forward towards implementation because fractal makes them OP. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion, and if you agree, how would you change fractal? Feel free to suggest any sort of change, including complete removal, but if it's not too much trouble please add also suggested changes to Decay and Eternal Phoenix's decks to keep them competitive in the FG world.. :)

It looks ok as an idea and as a cost..But given the amount of randomness or should I say, unpredictability involved in this card I doubt we'd see it often in play, except against certain bond-depending FGs maybe..and even they already have their unupped counter decks..It'd definitely be a strange beast to play in PvP. You'd want to wait until the opponent has, say, at least 10 HPs worth of creatures or 4 small creatures to get enough out of it for its cost, but you might have trouble lasting long enough for that. While I'm sure the players will find efficient decks to put it in, I have the gut feeling other cards are going to be better appreciated..
