Well... I told myself I'd make a topic here when (if) I got a rank 1 deck. And that happened today. I'll try to update this with every new deck, but no promises.

Anyway...


Current Deck:
Spoiler for Details:
Oracle card: Time Pendulum
Peak Rank: 255
Rank upon removal: -
Win/Lose: 0/0
Spoiler for Point Distribution:

An interesting deck, that seems to work... sort of.

Past Decks:

Spoiler for Past Decks:
Spoiler for 51/9, Rank 1:
Spoiler for Details:
Oracle card: Basilisk Blood.
Peak Rank: 1
Rank upon removal: 8
Win/Lose: 51/9

A simple Novabow, but brutally effective at what I designed it to do: i.e., destroy the popular Plat farmers. Very fast, consistent, and the AI does well playing it.
Steal removes PC dependence on just SoFo, 2 Purifies ensure the AI always has one on hand.

Spoiler for 7/4, Rank 167:
Spoiler for Details:
Oracle card: Steal
Peak Rank: 167
Rank upon removal: >500
Win/Lose: 7/4
More for fun than effectiveness.

Spoiler for 24/5, Rank 117:
Spoiler for Details:
Oracle card: Mummy
Peak Rank: 117
Rank upon removal: 177
Win/Lose: 24/5

A slight variant of Brave Phalanx, since the AI will only use 1 SoR/creature, I don't need 6/12 SoR. Chargers come out faster, and hit hard.

Spoiler for 29/6, Rank 52:

Spoiler for Details:
Oracle card: Fate Egg
Peak Rank: 52
Rank upon removal: 164
Win/Lose: 29/6

Lots of different possibilities. I toyed with the idea of mono Time, but didn't have enough upgraded cards to try it. Tried a Speedbow, but it was boring. Here's... I don't know what to call it. Lots of denial, hopefully those Fate Eggs will pull their weight, what with the rest of the deck lacking major damage!

Yep. With Dexterity and Quantum Towers, it allows the AI to dump out a few creatures (usually) on the first turn, and usually empty its hand (of everything that's not Basilisk Blood!) by turn 3-4. If the game drags on more than 6-7 turns, the AI usually has 10+ of each quanta, enough to play each and every card as soon as it's drawn. Supernovae offer no advantage over that. It's still rank 1, 45-4, so I guess the Novae are doing just fine?

More detail in OP.

I'm undecided between Water mark or Darkness mark... went with Water, but what do you guys think? Not very high hopes for this one, but hopefully it's fun to play against before you guys beat it!

More details in OP.

AI doesn't happily spam SoR on Pharaohs, so I had to cut down from the original 6 I had in there. With Triple mark, I figured, why not Chargers? Credit to Mathematistic... unless I spelled his name wrong.

I had high hopes for my last deck. It did fairly well, but I kind of expected more, but it is what it is. This one... probably won't be very fun to play against, but let's see how it does.

More details in OP.

Last deck did very well, far better than I had honestly hoped. This week is something (I feel) more original. I've removed the rainbow aspect present all my previous decks, as well as no Purify. That's what SoP is for. No SoFo, since this deck is more "for fun" than for doing well.

Been a while since I updated this. So long, in fact, that I got the 60 day warning.



I got bored of posting essentially the same skeleton build every day, which is what I've been using very often over the past couple months. This one was interesting enough that I figured I'd go ahead and post it.

Frogtal with draw power, DimShield, and CC. Very scary if you don't have lots of CC.

*Pokes will* Can we make this Life legal for War?! (Yes, I know there's only 3 Life cards)
