Make a list of the skins you don't have that you could get from this vs total skins unowned and you can compare EV of mystery gift vs the 475 RP price

This crossed my mind but so much work lol.

Also, huge thanks to amex for giving me so much free RP I can actually have these choices XD

The allure of a legendary for 490 is so stronk.

Stream of thought still going, I need to spend all that money I put on the card so I don't have to have actually lost money on this deal

Speaking of the Amex card, they are going to start charging a dollar a month starting december 3. Thinking about cancelling...Anyone know if I need to spend the money on the card before I cancel? Or can I just take the money and dump it back into my bank account?

It's because this is in the sc2 section, therefore sc2 writers are going to own. It's also why there's only like 4-5 people nominated from Dota/LoL staff, haha

Well, it was made by Lichter, who is sc2 staff. Also it's labeled as the "sc2 community figures popularity contest" or something.

*Sits you down*
Well, when a man loves his computer.....

What deck are you now running in elements btw? I've mainly just been farming with a mono aether dragon deck. (5 shards of wisdom np)

The following deck:

http://dek.im/d/5ia5ljz27hiz57jp7k0z27k2z27k4z780880ez380i8pp

Updated Fractal-Hope (with Miracles and Patience shards). Free EMs in Gold all day erry-day. All this monies for upgradings.

May or may not throw in a silence just to deal with the mono-aether decks that pop up in Gold (because getting decked out by dim shield spam annoys me). Can normally stall until I draw mirror shield against the wisdomed dragons (66% of decks), or fractal psions (20% of aether decks). Still, it's an annoying crapshoot so putting in a silence lets me stop the chain and 1H-KO them like I want to.

Normally get pwned by the fucking Freedom shard decks, though. So much annoy. Also occasional fire/air freedom rush decks (getting killed by turn 2-4 means no setup time bleh).


http://dek.im/d/z361oz161t61uz361vz462mz663az4808z380dz180f8pu

Yeah your deck would be pretty tough for mine to beat, granted like half my cards aren't upped since this is a new deck I've only been using to farm arena.

Only 4 Dim shields means you can't deck me out.

Ha, HAHAHAHA. Well, maybe. The issue with using 3+ quanta decks that don't use quantum pillars, and non-mono/duo decks means that you can be screwed over handily by bad draws. Not drawing any aether towers while having 4 fractals in the initial draw, plsssss.

Really, the core of the deck are the RoLs (like in the original Fractal-Hope), but given shards of patience to keep RoLs alive (and eventually 1HKO), figured needed a Light Quanta Sink (instead of fractal-ing Light Dragons), and Miracles work so well at stalling.

But yeah, I'm up to 5 shards of Wisdom.

May end up trying to build this deck:

http://dek.im/d/z47k0z7808z580hz480kz58168pq

Just for the novelty, but farming EMs in gold is so great. 262 gold per pop (with ~60% win rate in gold). That's like, 6 wins per upgrade! :o


Btw, I've been trying that deck out and I feel like if you add a sanctuary you have a chance to get a higher winrate overall since you are able to eliminate it's weakness to devourers as well as black holes since this deck is a fairly low quanta producer. Been trying it out and it's been working wonders. Only really need 1 sanctuary and you tade out like 1 silence if you want to keep it at 30 cards. Also, can switch out 3 aether towers for 3 aether pendulums to ensure you have enough light quanta for the sanctuary. I always feel like I have so much aether and light quanta unused since you only need literally 1 light and 7 aether per combo. With sanctuary if you can't get it out early vs devourers/black holes you basically will never have enough light though, so by adding sanc and switching 2 into a pendelum you normally can produce enough to counter it if put in that position. (devourer decks and black hole/earthquake combob decks are so common ;-; )

1) I use to keep several sanctuaries, but ended up dropping them. May shuffle in another, but it's low priority. Against quanta control, either they starve you out early, or you get tremendous amounts of quanta later on (as you noticed) from fractal'd RoLs and power your way to victory. a sanctuary is useful, but takes time to set up. Pretty hit or miss.

Aether Pendulums don't work given the Mark is Water (to fund Patience Shards/Purify, and Luciferin).

Also, I haven't faced many Darkness/Gravity decks recently. Currently plowing my way though endless hordes of Freedom shard decks (so many gawd), which without early miracles will blitz through you. Not really much I can do with this deck to counter that besides better start-up time.

Considering throwing in a dessication or dry spell to deal with devourers/air blitz. Blitz decks in general are the dangerous ones, if they control your early quanta/RoLs, or else kill you before you set things up. Otherwise, EMs are free.

Probably may just try and build an upped version of this deck:
http://dek.im/d/z35j2zA61oz461pz2622z562480i8pp

As a pseudo-blitz deck.
