Special thanks for serprex and Fippe94 for creating this tool and the ruleset checker.

Q: Are the limitations valid for the cards in the list?
A: No. Every card from the list can be used without any limitation.

Q: 3 non-listed creatures are allowed. What does that mean?
A: For example: you cannot use 2 cockatrices and 2 schrödinger cats in the same deck.

It's 3 creatures not from this list TOTAL, correct?

I understand so well...
*cards from the list without limitations
*cards off list with limitations

[Submachine]

Let me quote from the rules:

Pillars, pendulums and cards from the below list can be used without limitation. Apart from those cards, you can only have 3 creatures, 3 permanents and 2 spells in your deck.

So the creature, spell and permanent limits are only there for the cards that are NOT on the list. I hope that helps.

I added an example and the deck checker in the second post. Sorry for the misunderstandings.

Shouldn't Shard of Patience be included on the list? it buffs the scorpions too.

Shouldn't Shard of Patience be included on the list? it buffs the scorpions too.

The aether shard would as well, but I think shards and the other nymphs were blanket banned for rarity and because the power level is generally a little higher than your average un-upped card. That would be my guess at any rate.

This would've been fun, since I already have a guide for scorpion decks, but 2 AM is not a good time.

Too early on a Friday for me; I won't even be home from work yet :p
