To the guy who play fairy support thingy

[abe1801]

How do you play it anyway ? i'm curious, and to anyone who opened this thread do you guys have any fun and original decks you guys played ?

[Sir Fluffykins]

*EDIT* I've tried a few times to make a tanky healing Fairy deck, but it never works out for me.


I don't remember getting a second Grea but I then made a new Dragon Deck with my two Grea's included, learnt 2 things

1) Dragon Emissary seems to pull Grea and make it Cheaper (Only seen it used to pull Forte, so didn't realise)

2) Having DragonClaw out at 6 play orbs, playing 1 cheaper Grea at 7 play orbs and playing the 2nd at 8 was crazy powerful rolling board clear.

Next turn I evolved Grea herself and double punched my opponent in the face for 10 and won.

Here is my interpretation of his deck

Simply put, it's a token forest decks that relies on curving out. Many cards in the deck will be able to generate fairies which allows you to, for example play a fairy on turn 5 with another 4PP follower. In effect it's a budget tempo forest.

Another way to interpet it is just by vomiting fairies onto the board and buffing them with cards like wind god and Gabriel so they act as the support medium through buffs, though you probably know why vomiting 1/1s on the board is not the best idea

I'm still waiting to find more Aggro Blood with my Flood Sword whose sole purpose is to hopefully counter that and OTK Forest so I can assess how reliably it fulfills its purpose. However, making SMOrc concede is kinda hard without Reno Jackson or spamming Haven heals.

but dragon emissary pull out cards cost 5 points or more, which means you really need luck to pull grea with that spell, but still having grea is a good board clear, when you have dragonclaw anne damage effect also increased right ?

Flood Sword ? how does that work ? and btw, the amount of shadowcraft players exceeds aggro blood so i rarely encounter aggro blood these times around

It has nine 1 drops so you hopefully have something to play on 1.

If your 1 drop isn't a Quickblader, the dream is that you then clear their 1 drop for free with Mentor's Teachings or Princess Vanguard who subsequently clears bats with her 3 defense.

If your 1 drop is a Quickblader, you start eating away at their health and protect your guy with Veteran Lancer.

Whole Souled Swing, Blitz Lancer, and Art of the Ninja help against Yurius and Veight. Blitz is so-so. I do wish she were a 2/3. Ninja Art is great against Ancient Elf though.

You have two Angelic Barrages and Aurelia for recovery, Tsubaki teched in against evolved Imp Lancer, and Stratagem alongside the usual Avant Blader to refuel so they realize they should just concede.

Demonic Storm is this deck's worst nightmare, but they only run 2, and it's not a huge deal if you anticipate it and Stratagem for 3-5 cards beforehand.

You were talking about me, i presume?
I play Fairy Support as a disruptive aggro deck. It's true that Fairies are a token, but they are also a token that can be turned into Petal Fencers or evolved one in a turn for free

In the first few turns i try and get as many 1/x followers out. Then at Turn 4, here comes the Mana Elk. At this point, you'd have done 1+3+8 = 11 face damage under ideal conditions (i.e against a slow opposition, say, Daria Runecraft or Elana Haven). You have an error margin of atleast one lost 1PP follower in this calculation

If the enemy is aggro, try and have an Archer at hand. Archer followed by Fairies (or even better, Elf Child May) can clear the board of Swordcraft Officers or bats. Save Sylvan Justice, Entangling Vines, etc for priority targets (Vania, Veight, i hate enemy Wards).

Elf Healer provides some healing, so while it's good that she's a 1/x follower (an thus Mana Elk compatible), my patience with her slow healing has run thin lately.

Keeping momentum is the hard part in this deck, i can't decide if beyond 5PP should i have large wards and go for a finisher, or continue to attack with fairies buffed with either Petal Fencer or Titania's Sanctuary.

Aside from that, there are the usual Rhinoceroach. Tam Lin and Okami are also decent self-buffable creatures, minus the Storm. You could also add some Ancient Elves into the mix, though i own none.

For a finisher, i rely on Master of Canopies sometimes, but this requires keeping either Fairy Princess or Pixie Paradise.
Wolfbolt would be ideal, but i'm poor, i got my first RoB Legendary today, and it was Sahaquiel, and i'm too much of a collector to liquefy any non-extras.

You're right, but the number of times I've played against Forte dragon with their perfect play orders I assumed it picks from 5, not randomly above 5 -clearly I was wrong.

Yes, Dragonclaw boosted Anne, so she did 2 dmg to whole enemy team. Opponent responded and took out Grea and Anne, but as I said, I had a second one and blew them away again.


On-Topic:
Forest really isn't my deck. I face so many tempo and roach Forests with perfect draws, then I go in and either end up with a hand full of fairies that clog up the works, a board of fairies that do nothing, or all the cards that play off the fairies and no actual fairies XD

Not that I lose, or don't win, more it just feels like pure luck when I win as forest so I don't play it much (and mostly use Forest for my Neutral-Only Deck)

"Why can't i hold all these fairies?" Fairies tend to clog your hand and board if you have too many. Part of why Pixie Paradise so rarely used, even in 'for each card in your hand....' decks.

I have always disliked MtG's "Maximum Hand Size is 7 Plenswoker" rule. Now where's that bloody Spellbook in my deck? Wish Shadowverse had an Amulet like Spellbook.

ON TOPIC
What you need at a time like this is either Petal Fencer, or Titania's Sanctuary. Why trudge about with 1/1, when you can have 2/2, 3/3 or even a few 4/4's?

Implying Fencers count as Fairies for Titania.

Ofcourse not. Thanks for pointing that out. :v
I forgot to mention that expressly and went for the implicit 'a few'. Even in my 'main' post above.

Err, i don't think floodind board with tokens gonna help you against otk forest. Otks forest is all about earlygame boardflood themself, but compared to sword they have tools to both flood and clear (May) and flexibility to recycle and protect their advatage (ancient elf).

Your real advantage against otk forest are mid into late game taunts. Aurelia is pain in the ass to deal with if her spell protection is active and multiple front generals is almost impossiblefor forest to deal with without fairy mischief or heavy board presense.

It comes with practice. Like you never want to have more than 6 card on hand before playing elf mage on turn 4-5 if you want to keep these 0 mana faiies on hand and not overdraw on the next turn.

I've found that just having a 1/2 on turn 1 and a consistent curve from there keeps the fairies at bay and Ancient Elf small enough to clear it efficiently. I'm still calling it flood despite also running those Wards you mentioned because you frequently end up with a full board, and that's fine because barely any Aggro Blood / OTK Forest players tech in Angelic Barrage to improve their own matchup against each other.
As mentioned, Demonic Storm's a problem, and May is especially troublesome when they go second, but it's not totally awful.
