Please give more Thumbs up for fun deck https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=45137.msg1022388#msg1022388

I don't really like make a deck that is popular, ideas are same. It always kill my interisting idea.

But in fact, I have got 3 times rank 1 in Plat: Once for blackhole, the greatest mana control, the card everyone do not want to see. Once for lighting, the best CC spell card. Some cards are powerful, will help you get good rank, and also make people feel boring and horrible.

There are so many SoF, poison, Sosac with some other powerful Rule the Aerna. I want to make something different,I want to make someting fun, but make me sad, when I make a deck, without CC PC  mana control poison sosac, different from popular deck, I still got few thumbs up. Is the deck boring like a deck for 1 turns 3 SoFs? I don't understand.

For a eraly thumbs up, it =12 :electrum. I dont't care 12 :electrum but I care If someone like my deck.  People in Gold or Plat should not worry about  :electrum, But not everyone don't want to make fun deck. People in Silver and Bronze, they need  :electrum ,and they don't have many horrible cards in their arena deck. For a fun deck you thumbs up, you don't lose anything, but it is the Light for new to Elements, and It is the Encourage to people who wants to make fun deck. So Please give more Thumbs up for fun deck. :)

If your like me, I just play arena and i have no thoughts on the deck. Thumbing down is just a reflex. I guess everyone should try be more aware.
I play games, not girls.

I allways give thumbs up if I see a deck, that don't use usuall deck builds, allthough I have to admit, that I give thumbs down most of the time.

I thumbs up most decks. I thumbs up decks that use a well known strategy if their deck was flawless and the strategy worked out well which proves of the ability of building a stable and reliable deck. I also thumbs up decks of people who like to experiment. Those deck often aren't as effective but very interesting to see because you can learn new strategies on how to combine cards. E.g. questions like "do I power this with mark or rather with novas?" can be answered differently and seeing decks built around each of the variants advantages is exciting.

So basically, the only decks I thumb down are decks with a common strategy that don't work well/at all (or decks with no strategy but I almost never encounter those).

Don't worry, decks and this thumbs up/down thing are not related (I think that it should be removed actually), I get usually the approximately the same amount of ups no matter my deck is

I always thumbs down decks that use phase shield or shriekers, otherwise I thumbs up it most of the time.

I hate facing those cards  :P

A very nice post, cunning wish! I totally agree. I also thumb down 90% of arena decks, but simply because 90% are copy&pasted brainless trash. But I always thumb up innovative decks.

I give my thumbs based entirely on how fun playing against the deck was, or if it was well built, etc.

I think the arena thumbs system isn't working exactly like one might imagine it.
I can imagine people just thumbing down everything and some just thumbing down whatever beats them. I see random ups and downs and people who presume lack of originality.

Is there even a copy paste option in the arena deck thing? I always just build decks from scratch around the card the Oracle gave me. I've never been to the deck building areas of this forum, but I've learned that there are 3 kind of deck builds; Rush, Stall, and Balanced. When I build a deck, I try to keep in mind the synergy my cards have and imagine how effective they will be against the popular deck types people use for grinding. Sometimes I have a cool idea, but I know it wont hold up against the things it will face in the arena.

I always vote down decks that use any type of Shard, Black Hole or Reverse Time simply because I hate those cards and think they should be heavily restricted in the Arena if not completely removed from the game. If I don't see any of those cards I vote up any deck that beats me.

I personally upvote any type of deck. With the state of balance the game is in I don't see why not

Jyiber is right.

the deck broke my winning streak, so i thumb down. creative or not.
i wouldn´t even bother to  "rate" at all without the compensation.
