Round 1 - Salvaging, Discarding, Penalties and Converting

[Falcon4415]

The advantage I saw for converting and discarding pendulums is that it would effectively allow us to discard any card in our vaults, not only in our decks.
This round's net balance for our vault is -5. If we want to keep some of the salvages, we'll have to let go other cards.
I thought we were running a little late with this, but salvaging is due when deckbuilding phase ends, so we can first decide our decks and then choose what to discard.

Ok, so as far as finalization goes:


Salvage:
4x Santuary
2x Farenheit
6x Fire Lance
3x Quintessence
3x Wings
2x Discord
2x Antimatter
2x Chaos Power
2x Arsenic
4x Poison

Discards:
3x Wings
3x Quintessence
2x Antimatter
2x Chaos Power
6x Luciferin
1x Arctic Squid

Discard from event card:
4x Poison
2x Arsenic

--STILL NEED 11 DISCARDS FOR EVENT--

Convert:
5 Emerald Pillar > Pendulums


So, we still need to decide on 11 discards, unless I missed something.


Ok, completely missed the bottom of the first post:

Salvage:
4x Sanctuary
2x Fahrenheit
6x Fire Bolt
2x Discord
1x Skull Shield
5x Poison

Discard:
18x Life Pendulum

Convert:
5x Emerald Pillar

The problem is, these numbers are a little off, unless I'm missing something major.  Can anyone clarify what's actually happening?

We only need to discard 5 cards net.

You make a good point I don't think my idea was clear/ math was good.

For Isei's Salvage I vote we take 5 x poison and 1 x arsenic btw. Arsenic is cheap and works great in rainbow decks.


as for salvage here is what I am thinking:


Salvage as agreed in above posts - discarding 3 x wings, 3 x quint, 2 x antimatter, 2 x chaos power = 10 cards discard from salvage

Discard from the vault: 6 x luciferin, 1 x squid = 7

Total discard = 17

Next discard 18 pendulums from our decks that lost. To replace those lost 18 pendulums, we convert 10 life pillars to life pendulums as we had excess life pillars last round. Then we choose 8 more cards to convert - Maybe these? 1 x miracle, 2 x procrastination, 2 x skull shield, 2 x purify

505+30(salvage)-17(discard for event card)-18(discard for losses)= 500

Updating vault with:

Salvage (30):
4x Sanctuary
2x Fahrenheit
6x Fire Bolt
2x Discord
1x Arsenic
5x Poison

Discards (35):
10x from salvage: 3x Wings, 3x Quintessence, 2x Antimatter, 2x Chaos Power
6x Luciferin
1x Arctic Squid
18x Life Pendulum

Converting (18 > Life Pendulum):
11x Emerald Pillar
1x Miracle
2x Procrastination
2x Skull shield
2x Purify

NOTE: Wizel, your math was off again-- '8' more cards to convert, and you listed 7.  For now, I'll update with the conversion of one extra pillar, reflected in this post.
