(1.24) CC? Why bother?

[tttt]

I've played around with mindgates - it's crazy chaotic. Now I'm testing 2 Aflas instead of 2 PAs, and also a Dusk shield to fill in the darkness niche and add a 3rd shield (not using Jade due to FQ). My playstyle favors the PAs, but I think I'll just stick to winning fast cards and skipping heavy PCers.
I saw a water/CCYB deck in the screeny thread that is definitely worth trying out - http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,7729.new.html#new (also pic is of afla control)

So whats the best version of ccyb for patch 1.27???

[tyranim]

it seems like that question is destined to be asked every once and a while... there is no "best" version. its all about play style. lets say there is a version with the best win/loss ratio posted, now that version might be great for the person who posted it, but that doesnt mean its great for you. it might perform terribly for you but great for others.

You'll definately want to pack some PAs against Jezebel. Use one on her Quantum Towers. I'm not sure what happens, when she steals one of yours, but I think it goes to the protected stack. Anyway, she won't be able to procure any Nymphs beside the water one this way :3

So, I made a spreadsheet to help track the cost to build this deck, since I was getting tired to switching back and forth, checking and adding values, etc.  I thought I'd share it with you all.

Version viewable in Google Docs: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?hl=en&key=tfSzd1U0NanRWoZxdGjSL2A&authkey=CMzV9dYE&hl=en#gid=0

Original version for easy download: https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B_mnKG2Pa_0iMmNjMzE3ZmUtYzVjZi00Zjk3LTgyYzQtNjBmNDA3Yzg0Zjgz&hl=en&authkey=CLPWipQJ

In order to prevent vandalism, you cannot alter it online, but you can download it and do so on your own computer.

It's a fairly simple thing, but I just thought you all might find it useful.  If anyone would like me to make this for their deck, please contact me by PM.

Thanks to Jocko for assistance in testing.

0/10 Divine Glory and 0/9 Akebono? Ouch. I have a lot more joy with those FGs (using the Original CCYB from the first post of this thread)

This thread is reaching for 100 pages. Wow.

Anyway, I think that CCYB is losing steam in time.

[zombie0]

the comment about losing steam is implying that something else is gaining steam instead (which is completely not true in my search for FG domination decks on these forums)

also, are you suggesting that it needs steam machines?  thats a bold statement

I'm skipping those when I'm playing with CCYB. With other decks I have much greater success vs them, but not with CCYB.

There is something about Steam Machines and Time mark coded in this message, but I can't make it out either

I think steam machine (instead of lava destroyer) will be faster
thus saving time

100 PAGES!!!

i dont like the idea of steam machines, costs a lot of fire AND water quanta. the golems are more cost eficiant and they have a high base attack (which is good when the opponent has a damage reducing shield up)

Water is essential for permafrost... on a side note 100 pages!!!!!!!!!!
