Number one transference allows elementals to use class specific abilities, and number two Eternal Renewalshuffles all other Eternal Renewals back into the deck, they never run out of cards. Anyone else agree?

I agree with Transference

Elemental players would argue that whilst there may be 2 problems with elementals, there are a whole, whole lot more with humans

I dunno... transference would be pretty worthless if you couldn't even USE the card that you stole... Basically anytime you weren't playing against another elemental you'd run a pretty high risk of getting a card you couldn't use... and against humans it would be pretty much worthless.
I'd even go as far as to say that what MAKES elementals so unique is their ability to steal (and use) opponents cards against them. I don't think it's really OP because even once you get the card you still need to use the resources to PLAY it.
I also agree with Calmdown that right now Human allies being better than shadow allies is a far bigger problem... but that's a discussion for another thread.

You could always use them as resources.

@frip Yea... but would it really be worth putting in a deck then? I'm not sure essentially making someone discard a card that you convert into a resource is worth 3 resources...
Well, Just going by my own experience, I trash humans all the time with a number of different decks. It's not too hard, but when it comes to elementals one of two things always happens. They either transference my CLASS specific abilities, or they run out of cards and continually use eternal renewal to bleed me dry. Maybe restrict the use of class specific abilities, and allow the use of human allies. I don't mind if they steal my key cards, it is what makes elementals scary, but then being able to use it on me. I have one less card, could be a key card, that means I don't have as many cards to turn into resources, not to mention the option of HBM. Not usually concerned about it, but it's a factor. Just a little too OP. I'm not whining, I know that balancing the scales is an eternal jobthat being said I'm testing out a Baduruu

I think the best response is this. If Elementals are a significant part of the meta then it needs to be taken into consideration with your deck building. The patch is what like a day old now? Much experimenting to be done.

Indeed, I just hate having to build my deck around one deck in order to be competitive, plus if I encounter an alleged problem it's only right to point it out right? Part of it is definitely me refusing to go over to the "dark side" and play whatever is most popular, but there's something amiss when the majority of decks consistently lose against one build. It's almost a miracle to win against an elemental deck, for me at least. If anyone has any suggestions on builds or strategies to help, I'd be glad to listenOriginally Posted by Jovai
