So in the few hours Ive been able to actually play, Ive racked up enough to upgrade 10 cards or so? And I already have 2 SoGs. So can anyone tell me the best things to upgrade first? I read that if you put 2 Lobo, then upgrade the Aether pillars, it works great for momentum creatures, but what if you dont draw half the Fire Pillars until later on in the game? Will Fire Bolt be enough to kill them since you have replaced Ferenhite?

ANND as a tip to some people who are just starting to use this deck, or to other n00bs like me; If you're playing against a False God that uses Jade or Reflecting shields, make sure to play your Shard of Graditude BEFORE using Nova. I cant tell you how many times I have used that precious  :light on accident.
If you have SoGs already, I'll suggest to upgrade Aether Pillars first, then Dim Shields. You can -1 Aether Tower with all of them upgraded.

And of course the two weapons have their pros and cons, so you have to decide it.

About those tips, I'm sure they had been mentioned in this post. You should go through the post once to minimize the unneccessary lost.

Good luck ;)

Since we have aether in here anyway, why not a fractalled brimstone eater?

Fire Lance, Phase Shield, Reflective Shield and SoGs cannot be replaced in this deck
so the cards you mentioned will be additional cards which greatly increase the deck size
but they are not key cards and lower the chances of drawing the critical cards

After playing with your deck a little, I have to agree! It is tuned too tightly to add a few cards.

 @ twinsbuster thank you very much for sharing this wonderful deck idea.
i got a lot of upped cards too..would have been great if i got a eternity...so i am still a eternity away from sg rainbow deck.

Also it would be great for other newbies if u post a strategy against FG under "challenging " category.
I am still figuring out how to handle all those deadly poison from Morte...though i have around 50 hp with 3 poison on me,when i start shield chain ,those deadly poisons are too much too handle.
Against Dark Matter ..those blackholes just wont let you accumulate quanta.
With Chaos lord, i cant even imagine  how you managed to win after he gets his discord out not to mention those 2 explosion or steal if your are really unlucky.
Divine glory :12 explosion is not challenging with this deck lol its impossible ,atleast for me.
Gemini :probably the only fg in challenging category you can beat but have to be really lucky in killing those creatures with momentum(with unstoppable and twin universe it gets out of hand pretty quickly)and hoping ur farenheit does the killing.

Other than that its a wonderful newbie deck.really helps you get started with false gods.

I have a new alteration for this deck idea that will give you more  :fire s and  :aether s fast to start setting up shields.

9 Burning Pillars
3 Fire Pendulums (upgrade unneccessary)
5 or 6 SoG
6 Fire Lances
1 Fahrenheit
1 Light Pendulum (Upgrade necessary in case it turns out to be the last card)
6 Phase Shields

I have a link here if you get too confused. I'm still a noob and I have no idea how to upload image. >.> The ? are pendulums, I guess they didn't program it in the deck image builder yet.
http://helltgivre.free.fr/elements/?mark=4su&deck=z95f0z35gi5lgz56rnz67dk7dn7laz680d

The fire pendulums are a way to get more  :fire and replace aether towers, and the light pendulum will get you the  :light you need plus more aethers. The old 4 aether towers are unnecessarly. It has a high win rate against the easy false gods, and maybe even more effective at certain gods like Neptune and Elidnis than a rainbow deck.

I've also tried altering the deck by putting in a bunch of aether pendulums and a mark of fire. It doesn't work, because sometimes you might not get a pendulum or when you use the SoGs it uses your :aether s (I hate how they made it use 3 quantums instead of 2), and you will be delayed an extra turn before the pendulums turn back to aether, and those turns are what it takes for false gods to rush you. Please reply if you have any suggestions to improve this alteration. =D

Pendulums really helps. This deck always have exceed aether quantum at mid-late game. It shifts half of the unwanted aether quantum into fire.
but I think 4 Pendulums may not be enough to ensure an early shield.

Well, I am guessing that you would start the shield chain when you have 18 cards left right? Even if you only have 1 pendulum at the beginning, you will have 10 :aether s to start and continue the shields. Too many pendulums will decrease  :fire gain and excess  :aether s. A smart thing to do with the SoGs is to use them when the pendulum turns to  :aether, so even if it eats some up, you can have at least 2 back the very next turn. Even before pendulums came out, 4 aether towers are too much already (in my opinion), so 4 pendulums now will generate more than enough  :aether s.

And I think the sundial is a total waste. Just try to endure till 18 cards left or less (in case the shields are hidden at the bottom of the deck), then you'll live without the sundial.

you need a number of posts to use forum profile pic
100 (if i'm not mistaken) for a predetermined set you can choose from
200 for your own personal album
