ULTIMATE FARM DECK FACEOFF

THE ULTIMATE FARM DECK FACEOFF!!

Pretty self explanatory. You need x amount of rares.

For a 30-34 card deck, 12 rares. At most 3 unique rares.
For a 35-39 card deck, 15 rares. At most 4 unique rares.
For a 40-44 card deck, 18 rares. At most 6 unique rares.
For a 45-49 card deck, 21 rares. At most 7 unique rares.
For a 50+ card deck, 24 rares. At most 10 unique rares
FOR A FULL 60 CARD DECK, YOU MAY USE ANY AMOUNT OF UNIQUE RARES. (still have to have 24 rares.

Tweaks or something?
I think the numbers might be a bit off, so help me here. I mean, I think it's hard to shove in 24 rares for a deck. It forces some dead cards, I believe. 

Every deck can up one rare only, and use as many of them as they want. So you can only have 1 type of shard, if you choose to up it. If you need filler, put in unupped shards, won't help you just to help you reach the minuimum.

I think you should be able to make as many decks as you want, then we'll play a best of 3 matchup. Probably in a double-elimination tournament like all the other events here. You can switch decks between rounds and so on.

Example deck: Classic flying staves deck.

Code: [Select]

5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5c5 5c5 5c5 5c5 5c5 5c5 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 7b0 7b0 7b0 7b0 7b0 7b0
All I can say is, go ahead and copy my deck, GL getting 6 life nymphs. I figured it's okay to give an example because everyone knows this deck anyways. At least for people with massive amounts of rares to throw around.

very interesting idea
first i thought no, too broken...flying eternity is too broken but then we got some counter
and then i thought well thats the broken one....but we also have counter to that
in the end its rock, paper, scissors and when we have an element of RPS, i think it can be done (instead of it being monotonous and a race to see who can topdeck better than their opponents)

and i like this rule too
people are allowed to upgrade exactly 1 type of rare means we wont be seeing flying weapon in a mono Light for example

although the SoG situation might need to be look upon with further scrutiny (so easy to stall or go deckout route if SoGs are allowed)

Counter to Flying Eternity: non-Flying Eternity!

btw the example decklist given is illegal by your own rule : P

wait, no...i confused unique rares to rares of a single type

Why? Nymph is rare, I think.

[kobisjeruk]

no, in a glance i thought you can only have 3 of-a-kind (for rare) for 30-34 cards deck
i thought having 10 unique rares was weird because we can only have at most 6 copies of any card, only then i understand what you mean is 3 different set of rare

man i'd love to see this as an event

CAN HAZ?

So, is it exactly 12 rares, or could it be 12+? I think the former would be better.

I think any more than 12 rares would hurt your deck if you only had 30 cards. I think if you want more, that's fine. The number shown is a minimum.

So like, what's wrong with the idea? It's like dead...

How many people can join?
If there's an un-even number of people, who gets the bye?
How will it be ran? ( simple elim tourny, double elim, round robin, swiss etc.)
If round robin or swiss, what is the goal? how do we decide the winner?
Is there a scoring system?
