@pkubighead: In a sense you are correct. HOWEVER you need to look at the fundamental mechanics of this game. There are NO search cards. There is only more draw power to get to what you need. This is NOT Magic: The Gathering. This is NOT Yu-Gi-Oh. This is NOT (insert other card game here). This is Elements. As such, we are limited by the games overall mechanics. Survival against an opponent that basically cheats means having to match his draw power, slow down his assault, and dominate the board. In almost every other game I have played I can cite hundreds of references where a solid control deck stopped every other deck built. But yes, without search cards, it makes this combo limited. If you want a simpler deck less reliant on luck, look up RoL/Hope. If you want a tried and proven method by hundreds, designed by the forum moderator and played by thousands, feel free to build this one. I know I did and am happy I spent the hard earned quantum.
