Deck candidates

[jippy99]

Sorry for the double post, but we could use a few types of regular decks, only slightly modified.  We still might be able to use a poison deck, with some scorps of any type, chrysaoras, arsenics, and mummies.  It could look something like this:

Code: [Select]

52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52o 52o 52o 52q 52q 52q 52t 52t 52t 52u 52u 52u 55q 55q 55q 576 576 576 576 5i5 5i5 5i5 5jm 5jm 5jmAnother deck could be a golem rainbow, with a few pillars.  That would look something like this:

Code: [Select]

4vh 4vj 4vj 4vj 58o 58o 58o 590 590 590 5bu 5bu 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f0 5f9 5f9 5f9 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fc 5fc 5fc 5l9 5l9 5l9Any feedback on these?

I had a thought for a lieutenant/general deck, which would be a fallen druid with dissapation field.  I tried this out myself, and it worked quite well.  You use low cost creatures like photons, skeles, and ash eaters.  Mark of entropy with 4-5 entropy pillars, the three druids, shield, discord and the rest quantum pillars.  I dont have the code for it, but i will try to rebuild it.

I wasn't sure of the deck you had in mind but, the way you describe it, i quickly came up with a deck something like this and tested it for a few times against ai3. (2x rustler both serves as precious conversion and as a target for druid)

Code: [Select]

4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4sa 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vl 4vl 4vl 58u 5bv 5bv 5f1 5i5 5l9 5l9 5l9 5og 61p 61p 61p 6u6 6u6 6u6
It works very well (and is fun), i annihilated the ai in a few turns. but it works as long as you manage to draw druids and if they don't die. Its quite risky to build a deck around drawing 3 / 30 cards of the deck. I would just go with a rainbow rush, like the one i posted on page 1 where you don't need combo that requires good luck.

I thought with only 240 cards in the vault that a deck that uses cards like that might get shot down.  As for the rainbow deck, the one on page 1 also needs quantum pillars, which might take a while to get more than 1-2.  I tested my rainbow on AI3, and it worked very well.

@jippy. Like i said, the deck i just made up with your suggestion works really well. But is far too luck dependent to be reliable. It will just lose everytime it fails to draw the Druids and you need to keep them alive for a while (can only mutate 1 creature / round) and they are very vulnerable even if you manage to draw them. And the creatures it contains (0 / 1 quanta cost creatures) are hardly reusable in any other deck we could possibly play.

About the deck i posted, its a close variant of tournament winner deck!

It lacks 3 novas but has more than enough quantum pillars to compensate. I wouldn't post it if i hadn't tested it before hand. It doesn't rely on "luck" at all. Its a fast and mindless rush.

[jippy99]

I guess that deck would work without 3 novas.  Meet me in chat, we can discuss.

@ a quint or 2! you dont need the aether! i like this one

To be honest, i would rather not add in any nymphs, unless many of us have of that nymph. Else it would be a only 1 player thing, and it would hurt us more than help.

Ji, we are testing some of the decks with jippy. You are welcome to join us.

I thought of another deck, its Dogg's from round 2. Heres the thread: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,15165.0.html
His deck is legal by our standards, and would not require any change, unless we wanted to change it.

I thought of another deck, which I actually use and wont have to change.  Its a fahrenheit/fire bolt deck.  I dont have the code cause im playing malignant now, but ill get it up.

Heres the fire deck I mentioned in the last post:
