Charged up da Rainbow...Where's mah Pot o' Gold? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=13441.msg169347#msg169347
« on: October 02, 2010, 10:42:43 pm »
After working on the first speedbow to use pendulums (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,11972.0.html), I decided to play with the concept and see what other craziness I could come up with.  Using a gravity mark puts you just in the range to have a charger spam accompanied with small fry from the supernovas.  With chargers, you lose the weakness to shields the previous version faced as essentially a weenie rush.

Not a lot of games tested yet, but this kid is pretty fast.

As always, all suggestions and feedback are welcomed.

I do like the idea of this deck quite a bit, but I can't help but think that 4 Chargers might be a bit much.  As to what you could substitute...I have no suggestions on this part.

4 Chargers are optimal - CC decks may be deadly.

I understand that, but my concern is primarily with what this will do if quantum denial is prevalent (and based on my experiences with speedbows, this is quite a common problem).  IMHO the last thing a speedbow needs is less chance of an unsuccessful launch, which is what I fear will occur in these circumstances.

Initial testing shows I like Werewolves, Arsenics and Fog Shields in this. But that'd also make it less original, eh? Still, Werewolves are nice. I get :entropy quanta to spend a lot of the time.

Werewolf is unpopular because it blocks both Supernova and Vampire in the early game.

It's not for early game. Especially evident since this deck has Precogs.

Exactly.  I dislike how werewolf often sits in my hand when I draw it early.

I got around to messing with this deck today...and my previous fears are completely false; the Pends offer much more :gravity quanta production than I had previously assumed.  Extremely solid, nice work :)

Adding a gavel would be optimal in there, 7 dmg for 2 quanta due to the gravity mark.

The one issue with this is that in the event you don't receive a surplus of Supernovae (say 1-2 in this case), this has the potential to disrupt the quanta balance of the other elements.  For instance, you use the 2 Supernovae, play Gavel.  Gavel drains you of 1 :life and 1 :water.  Next turn you draw Abyss Crawler.  Bummer :/
