OP - assuming that you're not trolling us, you've said that 1. the deck is untested and 2. you're completely new at deckmaking. Wouldn't http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,56.0.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/board,56.0.html) be a better place for this thread?

I hate to break it to you (and I'll try to be respectful  ;) ) but this is worse. You can't reliably expect to draw more than 3 or 4 novas in every game so you will be deathly short w/o quantum pillars. Also, your Enchant Artifact is making me laugh, this is A SPEEDBOW!! SPEED! It will be hard for you to get more than one of anything out. And you seem insistent on using weird cards from dark, why? Use lycanthropes. Those take care of your dark quanta and you can take out those ridiculous parasites. You should try a bunch of cheap creatures from each element, and try only 2 of each. Blessing is not worth it, 3 quanta for +3/+3? no. You can use 2  :life to get a horned frog for 3/3

2 Forest Spirits
2 Fire Spirits and 2 Momentums or 2 Graviton Fire Eaters
2 Lycanthropes
1 Graboid
2 Chryasoras is a way to use death
1 Vamp Stiletto is a fairly common guy in a speed bow.

So I suggest when making these things just look at all the cards in an element which are less than 2 quanta and shove them into your deck. Remove any overlapping quanta sources and double up on the cheaper/better cards.

You should only ever use Bloodsuckers in this type of deck. Not even the ability makes up for the Parasite's single attack point. Bloodsucker has 3 attack and Infection which is fairly decent. Either upgrade or replace them.

Why does everyone keep claiming that this is a Speedbow?

He said himself it's a Growthbow and I can tell you its working GREAT!

I just bumped my win-rate against FGs to 70% ...  :)) naa guys, just messing with you.  :))


Wavemaster, jumpoffducks suggestion to use the deck-help section for this kind of
thing is excellent!
Also, I would start a new thread when you make a completely new deck ...
How is anyone going to know what the hell we are talking about (photons, devourers etc.)
when there is no sign of a deck that is even closely related to the many posts in this thread anymore?

Yes, that's much better. Blessing is a good card in any speedbow, to those who would claim otherwise. It has more to do with increasing your valuable creature's durability early in the fight than it has to do with damage-per-cost ratio.

Now then, as mentioned, Enchant Artifact is unnecessary, and I might say you have too many growables which makes you lack CC. However, there's one pretty interesting fact about the AI you can exploit, and that's the fact that they target creatures with Growth before they target creatures with Ablaze. Ubah Stompy (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,14020.0.html) makes use of this in order to break the barrier of 7 TTW with an unupped deck, and this deck could focus on it more for extra pwnage. Just a thought.
