Elements 1.26

[ArcanisX]

OK, I've made it through th topic.
1) Thank you Zanzarino.

2) Empatic Bond... make it back. The big reason for EB was that it hepled with Elemental Mastery in pretty common cases where you are poisoned or just royally humped. It's not a bug fix, and I can live with how it works now... BUT> it was the one "natural answer" to poison, like, a SECOND card in whole game (first being purify obviously). I do not think it is a good design to deny us this feature of a rather conditional card - it's nowhere near imba or whatever.
Matter of fact, I do NOT run EB in my FG deck as of now - just happy to steal it from that "life-water-aether" dude. What the change did is merely off some well-deserved Masteries and probably abit less server load... People (like me) like those EMs. Give us the Bond tech back, please.

3) Thank you again. We do recognize the dedication it takes.

Man, these new elders are pretty hardcore. I can't take my silly decks against them anymore if I want to win almost every time. 
I can see popular ai3 grinders having problems too. Looks like those would need a bit of rework now.

Is it´s only randomness, or have the AI3 higher chances to give the new cards ?
I got: 2 Cats, 1 Crusader, 1 Silence, 1 Relic today and only little from the rest.

Agreed. I was testing against the new AI3s with a shrieker rush and lost 11/20 matches against them. My Destroyer rush did a bit better with only 7/20 losses, but I was still shocked.

Luck.  I only received one Catapult, plus a bunch of Quints and other things.

Weird.  I don't think I've lost once with USEM.

Lucky you. I'm losing twice as much and with a slower ttw rate.
USEM works, but not nearly as well as it used to, and with other decks now you can expect to take a beating.

Just something I thought of while playing the new AI3:

Dune scorpions should get a priority for buffing. The AI had 2 dune scorps out and it buffed the same one twice when it should of buffed both. just something minor that I thought Id share.

Ive been using USEM and havent lost yet either. I also have noticed Im winning a  lot more cards but that might be because the new decks are more specialized than the old ones. So there are more repeated cards, increasing chance of winning one. Unfortunetly no new cards for me yet, but Ill keep trying.

True, I won a Duney off that deck.  First loss also just recorded after ~25 games, against FFQ/Hope/Bonds deck.

Most of the problems were against the Scarab/Pharoah one. My destroyer rush and shrieker rush all had low hp creatures, so the Scarabs just ate everything. The USEM is faster, so you have a much better chance to dodge the scarab army.

No other deck seemed to pose a major threat for me though.

I just lost my first one too, against the mono aether

This is amazing!!  No need for happy pills today!!
