Curious about dmt. Seems weak with portal. Is he really that much better than bad wolf?

Short answer: YES!

DMT

do 3 damage with portal as well... but most important: when you cast DMT

, he will immediately deal 1 damage ! This is so useful for taking down 4hp ally.. (game changing...)

Minotaur weak without Portal

? 6 health draws a lot of fire. If you fear Lance

, tech against it a bit more and hold your big allies until you have Portal to not get Raven

'd to death. Even Bella is very usable without Portal

.

I don't like Bella at all.. but i will try Minotaur.

Reached 313 without additional loss

I think, main point of this deck is to be able to play without the portal. Portal

is just an addition.

Agree with what Unruler posted..

Most portal decks seem to be build completly for the portal, and without portal they just suck (Bella isn't really that good without portal, se dies to nearly all allies). This deck can handle it just fine without portal, portal gives extra lots of extra power to the deck, of course, but you can win even with portal being late.

I like it! But No plasma behemoth for armor-piercing? No LLN

for armor itself? Shriek...Mmm that's debatable. But I constantly find myself wishing I had it (IGG

, JD, research, other shenanigans).

I know PB is bad w/portal, but still...you have any games where you've had to deal w/pesky armor to show us?

Ye... LLN

is good. I don't like Shriek for this deck because my resource curve is high. There is no real threat with 4cost item.

The last decision for me was LLN

*2 or Sever ties*2 and i chose Sever ties because it's more aggressive and most time it's "I win" card..

Also originally i used PB instead of MD.. it's not working.. really need 4 damage.

I guess I can see that. I do admit ogloth would be an epic card to "release" especially throwing down cards, using SC, and then casting spells, biding your time. Lol in addition that "paranoia" factor goes WAY up If you do it once LOLLL. People think twice about leaving allies on the board. Reminds me of a similar situation in 1.29 w/warriors and warrior training (no I didnt use ericka). I used warrior training on a raven, and they never let me leave anyone on the board again...which is cool because less damage for me lol.

I just wonder what's gonna happen for those gwens & such...right now the meta is a lot less weapon-y and less armor-y so I think this'll get by, especially since you said it's been doing well. For me, i see the occasional gravebone, a lot of eladwens, some zaladars, banebow especially, and the occasional majiya. Ive been running w/majiya since 1.29 & was suprised she took off so well. Its amazing how a small change to an ability can make a hero so epic

But anyways, Just like chess, the goal is to topple the king. In this case, the opposing hero's life points. And it seems like this is a good offensive build. Its funny because ive been talking to a couple guildies about perhaps including 2 SC & 2 ST...

I'm just wondering what happens when they meddle w/plans and such. You know.

What's your IGN? I'd love to see a couple games

and which heroes did you lose to..? Lucky breaks or was it something else?
