Title: Elements: not just a free card game anymore...
Post by: CCCombobreaker on May 30, 2011, 07:50:09 am
Hi,
I've been playing Elements for a while now, but never came to the forums or interacted with the "community" more than looking things up in the wiki.  Lately I have spent quite a bit more time on the forums for ideas on deck building, farming, and FG strats. 

A couple friends of mine found Elements over a year ago and got me hooked.  I have a long history of playing CCGs, but whenever I got into a new one... I quickly tired of buying cards and all the shenanigans that goes along with a "for profit" card game.  The evolution of the meta is fun within a set, but when new sets make your entire deck obsolete it's pretty lame.

That said, I have been using slight variants of the same mono Aether deck I built over a year ago.  It's all upgraded now (even the immortals I never use >.< ), but now it farms top50, lvl5, and Polari's excellent post (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,23368.0.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,23368.0.html)) showed me that farming FGs as mono-aether was feasible (more so than only going FG when the oracle told me the next FG was Paradox, Neptune, or Morte).

Anyways, I know I've gained a lot from other people's contributions to these forums, and I hope at some point to be able to contribute as well.  Also, leagues and tournaments?  Awesome.  Elements is so much more than the mindless grind I treated it as...

I completely agree having had an epiphany moment like this myself!

Getting involved in forums, chat and events is the start to making the game awesome :)

Also. on a side note to anyone who reads this that's ever been top50 and put their deck in "freebie" mode.  THANK YOU!
