Hello,

This is the variation of the Lava Golem Rush deck I am currently using :

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
5aa 5aa 5aa 5aa 5aa 5f2 5f2 5f6 5f6 5f6 5f6 5f9 5f9 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fb 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5ur 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dq 8po

(NB : "unknown" cards are Earth Pendulums)


I hope this idea hasn't already been posted.

The idea is simply to replace Burning Pillars with Pendulums and switch for Fire mark.

Good points :
- With 1 Cremation, you don't have to wait for a Pillar or another Immolation/Cremation to play 2 Lava Golem/Destroyer or 1 Dragon
- Statistically, you will play Pendulums along with Golems, so you can afford their ability

Bad points :
- I haven't played enough this deck to say if the  :earth / :fire quanta generation is balanced or not

I know there are variations of this deck using more/less Dragons/Golems/Photons, feel free to comment (especially because my deck is half-upped...)

Last note, I use this deck to farm T50 (results are overall good, but may vary).

---------
Thanks to Jmizzle for the moving

EDIT : Ok, after some testing and farming, I now use this modified version :

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
58s 5f2 5f2 5f6 5f6 5fa 5fa 5fa 5fb 5gi 5gi 5gi 5gi 5gi 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5l9 5ur 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dp 7dq 7dq 7dq 8pm


Works much better ! I added a Titanium Shield, which is very useful against Life Rush and RoL/Hope Decks, and use the extra Earth quanta generated.

Used almost that exact same deck, except with a fire buckler, and fire pendulums with Earth mark. Much faster, though you end up with some excess earth.

I you wish to use Pendalums, it will be much faster with fire pendalums and an earth mark.

Fire Pendulums with Earth mark... I'll try this, seems a good idea.

It isn't, by the current definition. Topic has been moved.

Updated the first post. Thanks Jmizzle for the moving, I figured out too late it wasn't Mono ^^

Thanks for the advice, now the deck works much better and faster (and harder, and stronger). But I'm sure there's still a way to improve it !
