The ULTIMATE False God killing deck!!! (old)

[Marth]

I'm considering building this desk (non-upgraded unless i happen to have the cards already) - what would the non-upgraded build look like Scared?

Exactly the same.

Like Brain9h said, it looks exactly the same.

When you start with non-upgraded cards, it can be a little difficult at first, because non-upgraded cards are not so effective and/or cost more quantum. Also when you start playing with a new deck, there is a learning curve to it.

Your winning percentage is going to be less than 50% at first because the difficult False Gods are REALLY difficult with non-upgraded deck.  If you want to maximize your earnings, I suggest you skip all difficult ones (lose 30 coins) and only fight the easy or moderate ones.

After getting 10-15 upgrades (and learning to play the deck the right way) you will see your winning percentage go up to about 66%.

Good luck.

For non-upgraded, you want to throw in some weapons like Trident or that hammer one that destroys artifacts and/or the green one.

That's assuming you're like myself and can't seem to score an Eagle Eye anywhere.

I wouldn't take Trident. It's usually useless to destroy False God's Pillars because he has tons of them and his mark gives him 3 quantum each turn. It's only effective if you get it (and are able to PAY for it) during the first few turns. During mid or endgame it's useless.

Pulverizer (hammer) or Jade Staff (green one) are more useful. I used Jade Staff myself when I started and then switched to Eagle's Eye when I won it.

Lobotomizer is excellent, I still use it in my deck, together with the Owl's Eye. This increases the chance of getting an early weapon up and it is great to disable enemies, just don't forget to save mana for shields.

Lol, Scaredgirl, didn't you say you were going to post up a strategy for each of the gods? 

You didn't forget about that, did you?

No, I didn't forget it. The link is right there on the first page. Under "UPDATE".

Thanks, didn't see that. Just before I was writing this I beat Gemini again, those silly Recluses, thinking they have a chance against an Otyugh.

But I never seem to get any other gods but the poison ones! *doh*

I just went up against an iteration of this deck from the Top 50 Decks; it was sort of stacked like my own iteration.

I beat it with 1 card left on my end with an iteration of ScaredGirl's Scavengers Deck.

I built the non-upgraded deck saturday and started grinding gods....Only won an upgrade or two, other rare cards that I got, I sold so I could pay to upgrade cards....I'm at about 8 upgraded cards right now (like 3 pillars, 3 hourglasses, supernova) and it's a touch easier.

some of the gods are damn near impossible to beat.  Seism is a huge pain in the ass.  I did get an EM win against him last night tho - got lucky and he was only able to drop a single tower first turn, and I got an armored Otyugh going before he dropped any creatures.  One thing I'm finding though is the lack of life quanta...With the Sundials needed to stay alive sometimes, and to draw cards, having the quantum for Miracle can be rough.  I'm sure once I upgrade more towers/Nova that will fix itself, but right now, it's a pain.  I'm considering adding a second Fire Storm (or whatever it's called) to clear the way - as some of the god decks - if they get an early start, you can't recover fast enough.

Otherwise, I'd say I've won 25% of my games so far with the mostly non-upgraded deck...Slowly going up with upgrades.

Thanks!

Second Fire Storm works pretty well. I'm also playing with 2 right now. What I like about 2 Fire Storms is that sometimes you can fire them both at the same time killing everyone who has less than 7 HP.

With 2 Fire Storms I had to take out Lava Golem (again) but took Elite Graboid to take his place (because "fall guy" characters are needed). I also dropped one Phase Shield.

If you play with non-upgraded deck, it might be a good idea to drop Miracle. I can barely afford it with upgraded Pillars and reduced cost of 12. You will most likely die before you can collect that 15 light quantum needed.

Shard of Divinity also is a very good addition to this deck. It helps me stay alive a bit longer and works well with Miracle.
