And this isn’t a common strategy in Shadow Era. Now it seems that there are enough offensive spells, weapons, armor, and support to make this happen. You see, the way it was before the expansion, Majaya couldn’t do what I wanted her to do….to be an all powerful loner. Then he gets “Rain Delay,” a useless card against an all support user! “Boris Skullcrusher” has “Kings Pride” up next, pay out and shuffle. Needless to say, at the end game when card advantage is key, this tips the scale for Majaya. One of the coolest tricks was the “Scrying Eye.” You play this as a support item, and then you can see the next card your opponent has on top….and you can use a shadow energy to shuffle his deck. I made a poor calculation once, and was still able to recover. I won four matches in a row today, with a 40 card deck, In every case, my life total was whittled down to almost nothing, and then Majaya’s spells really started their work. Wicked touch for a weapon like the “Wrath of Summer,” which also sets things ablaze. So they might be frozen and burned if the cards fall right! But now there is another new card, “Kelvin’s Charm,” which allows you the chance to make any weapon have the ability to freeze things when they are hit. SCORE! My best trick has always been to use the “Voice of Winter” as my weapon. “Meteor Shower” is one of my favorites, hitting someone for 3 damage and setting all of the allies on fire. Certainly not a new idea in fantasy stuff, but new to Shadow Era. One thing that is new is the idea of weakness….For instance, some allies might be resistant to Ice damage, but hurt more by fire damage. I dropped some Shadow Crystals on some booster packs of Dark Prophecies today….Here are my thoughts about the expansion…. (you see, because this deck is a grass deck, it can be burned very easily.) Everything else pretty much allows me to get what I need out of the deck, with the exception of some healing cards and Snivy/Servine/Serperior, which are there to help heal the PokeMon. These evolve into Escalvier and Accelgor, so I included the four copies of each of those. So I looked to the Reshiram and Typholosion deck for inspiration! I included four copies of Shelmet and Karablast, each of which likes the other. I picked up Furious Knights one day when we all decided to splurge on some cards. Typhlosion allows you to take fire energy out of the discard pile and put it on a Pokemon….See how this is an unbeatable strategy?ĭeck #2….Furious Knights/Noble Victories (heavily modified) The two Pokemon have synergy….Reshiram has a Blue Flare attack, that hits for 120 damage, but then he loses two fire energy to the discard pile. (Well, technically it only has one Quilava…It counts on Rare Candy to evolve Typhlosion most of the time) This deck is all about card advantage, being padded with support cards that let you search for the cards you need. Basically, it only has four Reshirams and four Cydiquil/Quilava/Typhlosions. This deck is called a “championship deck.” The cards do not have the standard back of the regular cards. And I must consider making a deck that is weak enough for them to take out so that they won’t lose confidence.ĭeck #1….Reshiphlosion (Reshiram and Typhlosion) link to bulbapedia May I write something similar in when I get 2100 more hits! Thank You all!īut now I have two decks that can’t be beaten. But no people interested in my give-aways…. One thing, Google doesn’t make it easy to be anonymous.

I still have no followers or subscribers…out of all this traffic? I haven’t figured that out yet. I am still trying to work that out in my heart and mind. SpartanNerd Sundays have been a mild hit. I need to do more things like the Groovy Dork lists. I want to start doing some top ten lists. My review of Masters of the Universe #5 got a bunch of hits…(the one about She-Ra) My favorite thing to cover is Masters of the Universe…everything! You would see a lot more of this if I had more time. I really should look into a better situation for photographing my stuff. The review of the Sonic the Hedgehog figures is the one that I am most proud of the photos. My sister in law said, “So you’re the SpartanNerd….Wierd.” Good. I have been pretty good at keeping my identity secret….I mean there are some people who have figured it out, and I have given some pretty strong hints out there to those who know me. The SpartanSmurf #1 is requesting a name change….We’ll see…. My reviews of the Magic The Gathering Event decks are right behind those…. Shadow Era reviews generated the most hits right from the beginning. Most traffic comes from the USA, but some comes from almost everywhere around the world! Thanks for all the support, oh Hub City Geeks, whoever you are!
