Deck Help / Re: Frozen Timebow

currently working on balancing the need for  :water quantum,  :rainbow quantum,  :time quantum.  may end up too unstable, testing different ratios
Try 10 :rainbow Tower and 3 :water Pendulums. When all in play, those give you average 5 :time 4 :water and 2,5 others per turn.

I'd rather use 2nd Eternity than Rewind. Then you could get first Eternity Stolen/Destroyed, and still avoid deck-out with the another one.

Also replace Feral Bond with Spine Carapace - infecting shield that kills all fatties (quinted Forest Spectre etc.) but leaves Malignant Cells alive.

considering pulvy vs steal, tough choice
Not really. The correct choice is Butterfly Effect (with Steal maybe).

This isn't completely same (no Octopus & Druid), but it locks the game in same style:

What I'd like to have:
1) Bug fixes. It has been working really well, and this should remain the top priority. Thanks to zanzarino, Gl1tch and others, for job well done.
2) Better game balance. Some cards are OP and other are UP. These things have also been modified really well resently: SoG and Puffer Fish being great examples.
3) More mid level PvE content. Making AI5 worth playing would be enough for me. Maybe simply changing the number of upped cards from ~15-20% to ~40-60%, and getting more score/coins from winning would be enough.
4) More high level PvE content. That new FG Proposals section should be used to introduce new FG decks to fight against.
5) New cards. Don't really care what element. *eagerly waiting for version 1.26 and those Cat & Catcher cards*

uhm which rol/hope is better? this version or controll?
It depends. This "rush" version being faster and little more prone to lose is better for coins/time, while the "control" version being bit slower and winning little more is better for coins/games, score/games, and score/time.

Duo-Decks / Re: All Your Nom Nom's Are Belong To Us

Really nicely built Top50 Harm. When I build one, I always try to make it beatable with some card strategies that are commonly used on un-upped decks (mostly via control cards), but also so that would make fast upped rush decks often lose. This deck does just that in novel way.

That being said, I think Chaos Power would make this too annoying for being T50 Harm (for newbs with un-upped decks). But on PvP2 that would be worth trying.

And you're saying they did the "Right decision" by stopping the recount? In a modern democratic nation the elections of president & parliament are the most important political events, and everything should be done to ensure that the result really corresponds to the opinions (=casted votes) of the people. Here that would have meant that the recount would have been done regardless of the timespan it would have taken, or other hindrances & inconveniences it would have meant. Making it absolutely sure that the correct candidate was to be named for the next president should be the most important thing. Instead the supreme court decided that they rather make a decision by those "various laws that were somewhat at odds with each other" so the recount was stopped and Bush was named winner of elections. They could have made the other decision by making sure the recount was to be done properly.
It cannot go on forever. The country going without a president for any period of time is far worse than the possibility that one candidate in a very close race get's the presidency.

The recount itself was found to be unconstitutional, because of the differing rules from county to county in how the recounts would be run. This violates the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, which states:
Quote
No State shall ... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
This is because 2 ballots could be identical, yet be counted in one county and not the other.

Additionally, it was decided the the deadline for recounts was December 12th (the day the decision was made).
Yes, your opinion is that it was the "Right decision", my opinion is that it was "completely utterly BS decision that ridicules the modern democracy". My opinion is, and has been since year 2000, that the supreme court should have made sure that the recount would have been concluded with equal rules how the ballots were counted. And that wouldn't have meant that "your country would have be going without a president for any period of time". There are numerous ways that could have been used instead, one example: Bush chosen for "interim-president" (not likely the actual legal term, but note my language barrier...) for time until the recount is concluded.

How do you know how much I know about this thing? If I'm so wrong about everything I've written here, then point the mistakes I've made and tell me your Truth.
Your original post was not something someone who had read anything about the case is likely to have said. You can argue about the particular pieces in their decision, but you just made a blanket statement that the whole decision was wrong.
Even though that might be true, you still shouldn't make conclusions of my knowledge based on such a short blanket statement. You should know better than just go judging a book by it's cover as they say.

Also, if you're just going to be inflammatory, then I recommend that you just don't post.
Also, if you're just going to be intimidated, then I recommend that you just don't read.
While doing so, you can for example listen some music (from my favorite band, hope you like it):

There is no need to post things where the only point is to be inflammatory.

Now that I think about it lightning ball might a good tech. Might not have quanta to drop enough dragons, but as long as you can play fractal you can get as many BL/LB ( whatever it is) out.
No, Ball Lightning isn't that good. Single use 5|0 are pretty useless against Shields FGs use, and on top of that it messes up the mulligan (=automatically getting new starting hand if you don't have any 0-cost cards):
In case someone is thinking "Why Thunderbolt?" It's there in case of not getting Pendulums, but only Soul Catcher. Then you can burn one of your opponents creatures to gain :death. I could have used BallL, but that being 0-cost, can mess the initial hand 4% more often:
p(mulligan, 35 cards with 11 0-costs) = 5,15%
p(mulligan, 35 cards with 15 0-costs) = 1,15%

Do also note that BEC has Tbolts, that can alternatively be used for creature control giving nice extra option for tactical moves.
Is this scheduled in your test list? I got 5,520 ttw, so it may have what it takes to be in top 3.

never said anything about nerfing in this particular thread
i said dont get your hopes up guys
my original sentiment on this card...

not sure about your definition of game-changer but if they spawn a prominent deck archetype comparable to those such as RoL/Hope, i say that is a game-changer

but we'll see (once the bug is fixed and whatnot)

in any case, i like to see something comparable to RoL/Hope
that in itself would be good for the environment (more diversity)
...as you can see, is actually in agreement with what you said zse
but seems to me once they fix the quanta bug, it wont be as powerful as it is now (that if they did not change anything else)
Yes, I saw your post on that topic. I just tried to explain how I was testing it to catch those whatnot issues of the card, kobis. :P
i'm try this thing on trainer  and it's generate more than 3   with 4 upgraded SC   it's generate 30  :death    :o

test it with unupgrade version
1 SC = 2  :death
2 SC = 6  :death instead of 4 (quote modified by zse)
3 SC = 12  :death instead of 6
4 SC = 20  :death instead of 8
5 SC = 30  :death instead of 10
6 SC = 42  :death instead of 12

testing it in upgraded version
1 SC = 3  :death
2 SC = 9  :death instead of 6
3 SC = 18  :death instead of 9
4 SC = 30  :death instead of 12
5 SC = 45  :death instead of 15
6 SC = 63  :death instead of 18

what is it?   :o
I think the bug was fixed already yesterday. *double checks: yes bug is fixed now*

While I was playing my 3rd winning game (on post#1) I saw that bug in action, but when I continued later, it had already been fixed. That being said, this deck could possibly be just that good if Soul Catcher comes into real game the way it's in trainer now.

359
the only thing worse than testing anti-FG deck in trainer is testing anti-FG deck in trainer with cards in development
take everything you've got with a grain of salt
use it to catch any bugs and whatnot, dont get overexcited about it
Kobi your such a buzz kill and we know that already. :P
lol

I started that testing to see if that deck concept could work. And since it did, I continued to see how well it works ie to see whether that Soul Catcher is OP in this deck concept. So basically I was testing should the card be nerfed before releasing. According to these limited results I had with this deck, it seems to be in par with Hope/RoL and :rainbow, so nerfing that card isn't needed.

Even the mighty divine glory falls to this deck..... though I am not sure how often it will happen.  :P
It might be surprisingly easy match-up. At least as long as those Soul Catchers are in lower priority for Explosion than SoG and Pendulum. Maybe that part of AI-stupidity gets fixed before this card is in real game though.
