In testing Miracle had difficulty putting out any non light cards.
I've fixed this by switching the life pendulums to pillars and putting 1 additional wind pillar. Is this ok?
Everything except for the one additional wind pillar. Sorry.
I disagree strongly with this.

I agree with what other people have said if the FG doesn't originally allow that quanta to be generated these decks shouldn't.
And this.

The rules as they're stated in the opening post are perfect.  FGs are built differently.  If we do not allow players to adapt and personalize their decks, many will not stand a chance.  Competitiveness and fun should overrule trueness to the FG decks, and it's not even close.

This is taking everything too far, since it was first posted this have gone awry.
This is no longer about FGs and their decks. Its about who can modify their FG deck to be the best it can be for a player!

Its no longer about fun! Its about player egos who want to win with their "own" decks instead off making an as close as they can true FG vs FG tournament.

Im not having a part in this.

PS
The only decks who needed modifying was EP, Gravitron, Incarnate
Neptune and Decay just a little.
Possibly DarkM with gravity pendulums and Scorpio with water pend for poison Seism with earth pendulums to produce more time for devonian. And only a few few.

Paradox is the only problem. I see no "good" change in him. Too many options and the he excel all his quanta types by special means.

This.  All y'all that are griping about FGs being able to USE the cards they're given are just pansies.  Wait until Zanz goes back and edits Pendulums into some of these decks.  Then you'll be fussing for real. :)

The point of a PVP Event is to give the players a chance to have fun using Elements for something other than grinding.  If you're getting all uptight about how Thelonesun has chosen to run his own Event, you're missing the point and you need to go chillax yourself.

Theloneseun, don't get tense about it -- choose what you think is best, and tell the haters to st*u.  This is your game. :)



If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

I disagree with the term haters Essence and take offense.

But yes its Thelonesuns event and he may do as he please I just stated that for me this is just wrong. Most had changed from the first time I read this post. Its no longer what it was painted out to be.

Thats it for me regarding this event. I'm not touching it any longer.

PS
For whoever takes Seism get Earth pendulums and swap the Pulvy for Eternity. Change towercount, get extra PA and more Granite skin. Overall its better. Make a sideboard for Pulvy and get gravity pendulums and mix and match as you will. After all its not about the FG, apparently its about winning.

You people are just going crazy now... just get this event started with....

This event is solely about fun. When $$$man first put this up (when there were no pendulums), he intended it to be fun, and so is this thread.

Everyone should realize that the only FGs with the winning possibility are perhaps rainbow and seism (unless rainbow is countered by dark matter). Editing scorpio or neptune to use trident's ability and stuff is still not gonna change that obvious outcome. So just have fun.

About Paradox... just take him out. As Rasta said, there's no possible way to balance him.

This thread is nuts.


People, please remember that this is a game played for fun. If you don't have fun with this little event, go do something you do enjoy instead.
So long and thanks for all the fish!

its hard to keep everyone happy because theres a portion of people* who dont want any radical changes to be made to the false god decklist and there are a portion that want to do just that
the thing is, it is very obvious some false gods are better than others
weird coming from a guy who pick Rainbow which some said to have the best chance against all but i'd be perfectly happy playing any other false gods because more than anything else, i just want to see these false gods battle it out each other instead for once

this has gone from "You are the FG!" tourney to "You are the best FG you can be!" tourney which takes away from the essence of this whole thing. at least thats how i feel about it. introducing elements that the original false gods dont have in their arsenal (such as the ability to use weapon) is different from adjusting quanta usage/generation by the addition of pendulum which some false god wannabes suffered (due to 3x mark bonus removal or lack thereof) and i think rastafla would agree with me here

well, as the great Man once said**, "you can fool please some people sometimes, but you cant fool please all the people all the time..."

* - i am among those who dont want radical changes to be made, that is true but i also one who wanted each false god to have a good fighting chance as seen from my 'crusade' to see Paradox/Dream Catcher deck to be 'playable' instead of utter crap

** - BM said fool but somehow i always remembered it as 'please' so sue me

majofa agrees with you here also

There's a difference between being changing towers/pendulums, to make it playable.. and changing how the deck is played.
I'm for the 'no quantum outside what could originally be produced.'
