How to beat a God without ever taking a point of damage.

[Essence]

I was thinking with the Quest contest that a good Quest would be 'defeat a Fake God without taking a point of damage'.  I decided that it was way too challenging.


Then, I played PuppyChow's deck vs. Paradox, and did just that entirely by accident.  Sorry, I don't have screenshots, but here's what happened:

Opening Hand: Permafrost, Supernova, Supernova, Quintessence, Otyugh, Quantum Tower x2.
I know, it's a miracle, right?


Turn 1: Quantum Tower (gain +1 Entropy), Quantum Tower (+1 Water), done (gain +1 Entropy from Mark).
Paradox: Aether Tower x3, nothing. 
Paradox can't play any Deja Vu on turn one because he relies on Mark quanta to cast them!

Turn 2: Supernova x2.  Done.  (Gain +2 Water from Towers).
Paradox: Casts a Hourglass.
Paradox can't play a Deja Vu if he casts an Hourglass, since it uses all of his Mark Quanta to do it.

Turn 3: Draw a Supernova.  Cast it, Oty, Quint, Boneyard, Permafrost.
Paradox: Ray of Light, Deja Vu x3.

Turn 4: Eat the Ray of Light.  I think I cast Pulverizer, IDK.
Paradox: Deja Vus don't attack due to Permafrost shield.

Turn 5: Wait.  Draw Firestorm.
Paradox: Multiply Deja Vus.  Cast Ray of Light.

Turn 6: Play Bonewall, Firestorm, and laugh.
Paradox: Cast a Deja Vu, and Improved Blessing on it.

Turn 7: Eat the Blessed Deja Vu.


...and so it went.  By getting an early Permafrost to stop the small Deja Vus, it bought time enough to set up the Bonewall/Firestorm combo, which never got broken. 


Result: 2 Elite Deja Vus won on the spins, +122 Electrum, and I beat a False God without taking a point of damage!

"Getting lucky" is the hard part, I would think. (Story of my life...)

To beat ferox without getting hit you need to go first and  get lucky because he may hit you with a Ray of Light

[PuppyChow]

You can beat most gods without taking a single damage . Just need an early bonewall and quinted oty.

That said, that draw you had there was pretty epic.

I think Scorpio is impossible to beat without taking damage (Unless he doesnt draw Phys or deadly poison, Which is just about impossible )

The very first time I played Scorpio, I didn't get a single point of poison. I still lost, but no poison, lol. I didn't even realize he used poison until the second match against him. >.<

LOL!

I thought Scorpio was the hardest god in the world until I bought a Permafrost Shield. It's useful beyond comparison

Wow, Essence. You must be spending all your stat points on LUK.
