Oracle : Lionheart

[pulli23]

did the ai just get a lot more clever? - he stopped creating scarabs after they had 5 hp and I had grav shield up.

Yes, there was an AI buff last update.  I assume they figured out how to get around Gravity Shields too...

hmm indeed crusaders also stopped endowing -.-. Still won with (unupped) grav shield deck, but it's not a walkover anymore.

Lionheart will no longer tolerate you all abusing his biggest weakness anymore.

Zanz will no longer tolerate FGs being fun anymore...

[Drake_XIV]

You know how to get past this though?  Just wait until there are 6 Scarabs before you play Gravity Shield.

Edit: Confused Lionheart with Osiris.  Derp

Mono Aether plain and simple...
You could splash in a bit of fire to kill him faster (Turtle shield is annoying) but Mono-Aether should have no prob vs him/her.

Just wanted to say, I just used the first of these decks (which is a basic mono aether plus 4 deflags) but I forgot to change my mark to fire (it was set on air, completely useless)...and I still won! I highly recommend either of these, because I won even with four unplayable cards in my deck. The other thing that really helped was EvaRia's advice that 18 cards left is the magic number for starting to chain dimension shields.

btw, for my stupidity I was rewarded with an upped eternity

Kept endowing for me.  Scarabs came late in the line-up so not sure if low hp was AI being clever or not.  You will not win by deckout now, but the OP deck still very viable for 500 hp EM.  Just be prepared for mind-numbing inaction--death by Eternity takes a while.

Spoiler for NOT GOING ANYWHERE FOR A WHILE?:

[Higurashi]

Hm.. I see the potential for a faster version then. Rainbow-oriented.. it could contain almost any offence that'd be faster than Eternity, honestly. Even just two Phase Dragons would speed it up a lot, even despite the Turtle Shield. Or you could pack 4 Explosions on top of those :L

[eaglgenes101]

Erm... Add graboids to the 500HP EM deck? (Keep them burrowed until near the end.)

[JuneIsSunny]

i just used  mark, 5 gravity shields, 3 sancts, 3 light pillars, 6 stone skins, and 13 earth pillars. one of the easiest wins lol. probably coulda done it without sancts and light pillars

[ARTHANASIOS]

I love playing rol/hope deck against Lionheart. I just wait until he has a non-quintessenced Crusader, I Fractal him, I play his copies and endow Lionheart's Eternity with my Crusades. Lionheart won't withstand their damage for long...
