Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/05 03:51Well... More then two or three of them kills most ships with a smaller shield then power, with less then the number of manors you have, kills scouts and small frigates, like some of the ones from minmitar"If it is stupid, and it works.

Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/07 12:02Your deck is quite ok so far. But there are some cards you simply do not need there. -Blood Batery. i do not see the reason to play this card. It only gives your base some shield power but nothing more. Also take out 4 locations. 16 locīs are more than enaugh. Then your deck will have the perfect size.

Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/07 22:58So... Your telling me to drop income and defensive cards?"If it is stupid, and it works. It ain't Stupid."- Unknown "As long as there are men, there will be war." - Einstein "There is a point to everything" - Uglio, the pointless forest

Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/08 18:26Sure you have 24 ships and 20 locations. that means you will draw: ship, location, structure, ship, location, news and so on. Thatīs not really effective. You will never be able to build an effective force and beat your opponent. You will be simply at a point when you have lots of income, no cards in your hand and the you will simply draw another location or structure. Whatīs better is to improove the effectivity of gathering income. For example: Ahrmen is hyper ueber broken and overpowered. Drawing him allows you to hold an outerregion for sure. Ok ok. After ahrmen dies it will be easy for the opponent to get your region. Soo you should mind to include the cloud ring into your deck. It has only disadwantages for the owner. Buuuut it also provides a nice income of 3 isk and only costs 2 isk (only 1 with ahrmen). I also do not see the reason to defend your region. The Blood raider tower will do this yob for you.

Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/08 20:34Well i could make a flaming comment about how you have not tested or played using this deck, and are simply spouting of the usual BS that comes out on an online forumns. A good portion of the ships you draw in this deck are great for holding an outer region. 4 out of 5 times, i can have a stain out and well portected with a good defensive ship. Typicaly it takes a lot of new to force me out of an outer region when i play using this deck. Test the deck. Then please come back and yell at me, but not before."If it is stupid, and it works.

I am not spouting your deck. and i am also not yelling at you. Is it sounds like that, than itīs because my english isnīt that good. So iīm sorry if i said something to make you think that.
Probably we can back to normal discussion somehow.

Re:Blood Raider Deck - 2008/08/11 10:28Mortus, you just asked us to review your deck and give feedback, then when someone makes some (very constructive) comments you accuse them of not knowing what they're talking about becuz they havent playtested your deck. That's just not on. Either you want constructive criticism or you dont, but if you just want praise then change the name of the thread to "Everyone agree with me about how this deck rules"... And if you do there will be ZERO replies, because the deck is pretty mediocre (sorry for not pandering to your ego here - feel free to flame away and tell me how i know nothing about your deck, your meta, your playstyle or this game in general. My credentials for this game should allude to the contrary)
Im not just trashing your deck because of your retorts to earlier posts - the deck is genuinely out of balance: too many locations, too many x1 cards and very little focus or synergy. If you're winning with it consistently then i would say you're either disproportionately lucky with your draws, or else your opponents havent got their game on yet.
I would go into more detail about HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR DECK (which is the point of these boards) but you seem a bit too touchy for that...============================ "There is always Hope...." - Elessar Telcontar ============================
