Eredan's World

Way I see it if they are going to make over the top Legendary cards, they should at least give us a way from getting out of facing those stupid OP cards in the top elo.

Welcome back!

Temple Gaurdians with [card]Guem Tear[/card], [card]Punishing the Unpure[/card], [card]Solar Plastron[/card], [card]Harshness[/card] and [card]Forced March[/card]. I hve never lost to Dragon using this deck.

Because it is a Fire Spell (the type of spell dictates what kind of elemental damage is done). Flames of the Phoenix is an action so it has to state what kind of magic damage it does like how Ice Elves action state they do water. If those cards were spells it will change to Spell Fire/water (accordingly) and not state it does fire damage.

[card]Time to Die[/card] is unique meaning only one copy.

So use the Eternal (Only Marauder) play [card]Temporalis[/card] and chain into [card]Time to Die[/card]. Then use your other character to get back TTD and hope that playing [card]Cheksathet's Vision[/card] will get TTD and Celerity. For better chance make it so those (Vision, TTD, Celerity) are the only cards in the deck that are playable (still vision might play celerity then TTD).

Elfine decks don't need quick draw. They need ways to drop defense, so drop [card]Net Traps[/card] and replace with [card]The Grand Hunt[/card]. Another thing you want 3 [card]Amber Daggers[/card] to make it so you discard [card]Ivory Bow[/card] so you get to 2 DOTS on the opponent and no attack reduction. Also add in [card]Surprise Attack[/card].

Ishaia and Doyen aren't loaded with a crap load of abilities or stats and they are still quite balanced with other characters. Hell even vanilla Pilkim has only one ability and I find him to be able to one shot almost any character.

No when you get down to it Character A lost because he dealt less damage not for having higher health in the first fight. You think in the case both character reaching 0 hp the one with higher hp is at fault for losing yet completely overlook the fact that one character did more damage. You believe it should be a draw simple for the fact they both die with 0 hp.

Edit:
Allow me to make you rethink your argument. Your saying that if both [card]Sol'ra Avatar[/card] and [card]The Duelist[/card] reach 0 HP it should be a draw instead of [card]The Duelist[/card] winning. Simply because Sol'ra Avatar has higher health and that is a great disadvantage.

Please stop contradicting yourself. You said it yourself any block damage (Mitigated) being added to the score would be unbalanced.

Okay you are just speculating and using the worst case scenario. And who says you will not get a better overkill just because you have higher health?

Also Desert Nomads have a lot of ways of healing and defensive cards.

Your problem is that defense stops you from getting points and that Nomads barely have any.

You should change your argument to say defense shouldn't do a common sense thing.

I think you are mistaken about higher health leading to lower score, since any overkill (when health is in negative) gets counted toward your score. If it did stopped at printed health then having high health would be a disadvantage.

Sorry but I disagree. I play Temple Guardians and with things like Forced March, Litany and Miracle I can easily negate massive damage. When my deck has a shortcoming I do what I can to overcome it, not try to get the game changed.
