Scarab Bow Domination [PvP][Fun]

[SpikeSpiegel]

I was trying to find an effective use for scarabs, aside Pharaoh decks. Truth is that I like to find an effective use for underused cards, so I came up with this deck.

It's pretty solid and funny to use.

I haven't tested it yet, but I think it has too many pillars. Maybe change one of them for a blessing? 4 pillars and 6 novas is usually enough, even more if the pillars are actually towers.

[Higurashi]

I tend to run Scarabows with some Blessings, 4 QT's and PC over shields because you're a mid-game domination deck, i.e. you don't have the stamina to survive damage that bypasses Scarabs íf your Scarabs are also being blocked. Besides the fact that shields tend to block both your offence and your means of survival (Vagger) and the fact that Eternity/OE/Lobo is very bad news, healing tends to be what helps more if the deck works as intended. If not, it means yer Scarabs weren't able to nom and you can only hope to rush anyway, which PC helps with.

Evasion shields+Vagger is always strong, just not necessary against Silver level opponents. It's still possible to sub some Armors for Fogs if you really find 'em essential.

With big Scarabs on the board, additional ones are weak draws. This is why I tend to run 5 Scarabs and get the space for more tech cards like more PC, T-storm or Purify depending on what I'm facing a lot of (Quint or Fog are there, as is Fractal if you sub Novas for QT's at which point you'll definitely want some Fogs).

Nice build. I do think there's too much quanta. Replacing 4 quantum pillars with 3/2 time towers and a blessing might be better though i haven't tested. Here are a few more.

Mmmh if one puts time towers instead of quantum pillars, from where would one take the quanta that scarabs need to use devout? They'd just eat 6 times, 1 for each nova, and then they'd be useless...

Which Bow do you use? I don't see any.

[dawn to dusk]

bow refers to the bow of rain-bow. grabbow is a graboid rainbow, sarabbow is a scarab rainbow

[Ginyu]

Which Bow do you use? I don't see any.

"Bow" is short for "Rainbow" and is used as a name for a lot of rainbow, like Grabbow.

[Monox D. I-Fly]

Oops, sorry guys. My bad. Thanks for telling me.

[CrockettRocket]

the novas seem pretty easy to power everything else, so change the 4 QTs to 4 time towers and maybe only 3 towers would be sufficient imho

Nope. Try that deck and you'll figure out why all those QTs are necessary and why more towers would totally a waste.
