Elementalis – Breeding Pit

Very nice deck Preybird, have had a few good games with it tonight.

It's "good", but honestly don't think it's your best deck to date pb

- Dunno why, but all these sacrifice-cycle elemental decks feel like they play clunky to me (sure, I win with them, but there's so many turns spent in fragile or exposed positions... ) - though I have to say, this one has the most stable curve of the bunch I've played so far

How do you play against moonstalker?

Its ability is effectively shutting down this deck.

**seedog** · 07-23-2014, 08:24 AM

And is bloodlust a good addition to this deck?

3 living armour is a bit overkill to me.

@Alz, that's fair enough, Fou said a very similar thing. I personally love the deck and I don't find it clunky at all, but I'm used to burst style decks, two of my other favourites were also very burst like, Crystal Miner and my Techhead Victor. To each their own

@Seedog, Bloodlust

could work but I really just want more allies and Ampliflyer kind of fills the gap anyway. 3 LA is definitely not overkill for Ele, he has limited comeback options so I always like a way out. Also it's very good damage reduction for a deck devoid of heal.

Moonstalker

is tricky but you need to keep your MC and simply swarm the board, keep him on the backfoot with too many targets.

There's the video I made for it

- hopefully it does a it a little justice (a few of my early plays are apparently somewhat controversial for some people... but yea, I meant to do them that way... this time at least :P)

I really like this deck. I was short a copy of both Living Armor

and Dagger of Fate so I tossed in 2 copies of Io Void Leviathan

. The synergy between Stardust Ampliflyer

and Io is awesome to say the least

**highmystica** · 07-24-2014, 04:51 AM

LOL, just took down a Zhanna

that Tidal Waved me four times and brought out The King's Pride

Twice - YAY!

**Preybird** · 07-24-2014, 05:24 AM

Yeah, this deck seems to recover from Tidal Waves really rapidly, I have a really good winrate vs Zhanna

, which is traditionally a tricky matchup for Ele.

I agree with some people.
