Originally, I had the idea of having a thread where whenever we see a well known forumer (or unknown, I'm not picky) submitting a Firestall, or other lame decks to Arena, and we all group together and call them names otherwise abuse them over the internet.
But that never happened, because quite frankly we'd be up all night trying to individually abuse each and every member who did this, and they'd just be sitting there, thinking "Well, they don't like me, but I have a lot of electrum, and money can buy anything, right?"
So instead, this is a deck appreciation thread. When you come up against a deck that at a certain point in the game impresses you, or makes you think 'Wow', that's awesome, you can put it right here, as a little congratulatory moment, letting them and you know that you appreciate their originality and thought.
I grind Gold League, and it is possibly the most irritating to ever try, since you can be kicked out after 2 losses, so everyone tends to revert straight back to Speedbow #2 without even looking at the wise words of the Oracle, or even the pictures!
Luckily for the purpouses of this thread, the first original deck I came up against was actually someone well known here (well, actually, I don't think anybody knows him, but he posts things sometimes, and one day I promise to read one of them)
I can imagine how screwed I would have been here if UGs registered in the AI's mental yellow bar thing. Respect for the 28 | 28 Unupped Golden Dragon!
Now, this next one was chosen, partly because of the awesome name, but also because it was fun to play against.
Something that doesn't show here was the reason that this got up, I was too slow in screenshotting it. That is, Sky Blitz. (The quints on their creatures are to prevent the attack doubling, I was very worried of running out of DimShields before I drew a cremation. After that point, I held on a while to see what it would do, and if I could catch another Blitz, but apparently not). This was also the first deck I saw using air, so I had to at least make a smile.
Somewhere, far far away, I do a little dance whenever I come across a Mono Air deck
Now, I can only play arena so much, and I don't do too much variation between the leagues, so I'm sure there are a lot of awesome decks I am missing, and not appreciating.
So, the responsibility falls on everyone else too, when you come across a fun and original deck in Arena, you're gonna have to screenshot it, and hope they wander across this thread and feel that little flutter in their stomachs when they know other people appreciate their work and effort.
