@dragonsdemesne: 2 pictures of deckouts with no eternity. You play a fat-deck, don't you? I would be interested to see the code ...

Yeah, I use a 60 card deck.  I'm used to Magic: The Gathering, where 60 card decks/4 max copies are the minimum size, so even this feels like h4x to me :p  It's my FG farmer deck, but I found out that it does very well against gold league, so I've been trying to gather score from the arena the last few days..  Against platinum, it's a bit too slow to be very reliable, though nothing I've yet seen is reliable against platinum.

If you don't have purple nymphs, I was using improved antimatter and another pandemonium in those slots before I got them.  If you have amber nymph, I'd use that, and if you have auburn nymph, I'd use that too, because it synergizes with gravity shield, and even your own otyugh, though that's a bit slow.  Golden Nymph I'd consider as well if I had it.

It's not exactly a 'sensational match' but I was looking at where I stood on the leaderboard and I found this on the same page as me:



I just thought it was amusing that two players with such similar names had the same rating and were therefore back to back on the leaderboard :p  And they both were using gravity marks.

Ahhhh mindblown!

This was obviously intended as a relic farm... but holy crap man, the cards this guy has.  The deck had only nymphs, marks, and quantum towers.  (and there's still 37 cards in the deck...)  That 8/13 oty ate nothing but tasty nymphs.  I saw at least 2 auburns, 2 golden, 1 amber, 1 turquoise, 1 air, and lots of fire ones, since his oracle card was fire nymph.  And those marks... they are doubled due to dexterity, but still... Also, there's a fire one played, but I'm not sure if you can see it in the corner.  (+1 for a 4x mark :p)  I pulverized his quantum towers because I couldn't bear to touch those marks.  I won 3 relics and got a chance at a rare spin, but didn't get a rare.  Thanks, rastafla!

This was the easiest nonfarm deck I have ever come across.  (excluding obviously bad draws)  Its offense consisted of unupped phase spiders, mindgates, and parallel universes.  The only point of serious offense was his name, which I reported to the global mods in pm.  I'm just shamed I 'only' won with 97hp.

edit: fair enough I'll remove the pic.  And yeah, this was in gold league.

[SnoWeb]

I came across this name in Gold league. Could you please remove it (the name) on the picture? A person who names himself like that does not deserve advertisement ...
Oh and his deck was extremely lame also at that time. If I remember correctly I EM'd him with a quite bad test deck.

My poor 500hp em deck got beaten by extraordinarily ordinary decks in platinum, so I felt like I needed some payback by making some counter

First up, the omnipresent Fire Stall! Spins revealed an abundance of SoGs, but where were they?

Then I get more standard decks! Apparently some Discord/Black Hole that hadn't lost yet. Too bad it didn't have a lot of quanta to nom

Nothing like beating some lame decks! I hope everyone will do the same and have fun beating up standard decks and enriching arena
First turn lockdown, problem?

It's not a lame Discord/Black Hole deck, it's a lame SNbow with some Discords and Black Holes in it. ¬_¬

Anyway, I just dropped by to post a screenshot of my own. The game lasted about 12 minutes. Not going to explain further, that would just ruin it.

I have no idea what's in this person's deck, but I just logged in and saw this on the arena screen:



How the hell you get to #1 with one of the crappiest cards in the game, I don't know... but kudos to them for doing it.

[dragonsdemesne]

This was a great match, very close.  Lightning bolt killed one dragon, and pandemonium weakened another one so that an otyugh could start eating them, but it got siphon lifed after eating 3 dragons.  As you can see, this deck had a lot of steals, which was very annoying.  I didn't see anything but dragons, steals, siphon lifes, and one octopus.  It was still pretty epic, though.

edit: another game



This guy had a well-designed but simple deck.  Graboids, shriekers, basilisk bloods for control, and stoneskins for stall.  The only problem?  He forgot to change his mark to time.  The funny thing was his record was still 3-2 before this.  (3-3 now)

Huh? Scarab isn't even close to crappy. If it were a rustler I'd agree with you.
