MArcomage

Which is your most powerful deck?
Mine is a holy deck with big rares: 58 victories and 16 losses so far.
It's good in every mode: normal, long, hidden or not

Currently, a keywordless deck: 26 wins / 16 losses. Second comes a 0-cost/plague which is also few-keywords: 13 wins / 3 losses. I know the numbers are not big, but I don't play much lately and I quite frequently reset my decks and statistics.

My all-time best was an Unliving deck which had around 75% win ratio.

Same as Fithz. Holy with big rares, 47 wins/ 12 losses (with a few victories vs MArcomage though)

Building Tower deck 141/59

Rush deck, lots of charge/-wall cards with a few resource boosters

88 victories to 30 losses

the other one is a weird Aqua deck with +tower cards. I made it initially to get construction victories but I end up usually with destruction victories

51 victories to 27 losses

Holy/Solder - 188/81 , not so good in long mode.
Aqua - 157/65

In overall I consider my holy deck to be my best one. 139/89.
I haven't been playing my non-keyworder deck as much but it has a ratio of 20/10, but I bet if I would play more (against better players) it'd drop to way worse than holy.

My rush deck is 447:76.

(Nerf rush decks!)

I wonder if we can make a new level of difficulty for AI by giving him fully optimized decks ;-)

How will they be optimized though?

Well, we could make a 'custom AI' section similar to concepts section. You could create your own AI, give it a deck of your choice and customize its behaviour. Once tested, it could be made public for anyone to play against it.

Orc Regiment based, non-keyword deck - 356:135:1, it's mainly for hidden long mode.

I thought it's good, but after this..

Against WHAT building decks? The game balance is all about destruction. How many times did you see building or resource decks against you during last, say, 200 games?

..I tried to create some building deck one or two weeks ago, mainly for normal non-hidden mode, but pretty good also for long mode and playable in hidden mode... and the current stats are 66:13:3, so it's better :)

Obviously the best of my decks is Holy/Soldier - 64 wins, 22 losses. But I don't really like it, so my most played is Restoration deck with hand replacers and heavy rares - 238/141.

Yes, building decks are not weak at all, they are simple underused.
If you want to see a good building deck you should challange Tibelix, his deck is really good.
Also Chemo has a good building deck. also my building deck has good statistics: 45 victories and 30 losses. probably it could be better if used only in normal mode.
It would be nice to have some more detailed statics for decks (and players) as win/lose/draw for normal/long/hidden/non-hidden modes

Yes, 'cause it's sometimes quite boring to build and build if you can smash your opponent instead of that ;))

Yes, I know it very well ;) One of few players where I have a negative score :) 34:38 :) I must catch it up :P

Definitely.

So, it's easier to "smash" than to "build", so Destruction > Construction.
The best decks are those that follow a "strict" strategy, whether building or attacking. That's why rush decks have so high win rates.

Now I'd say it's not so much more easier but much more interesting and variative. As I said before, there is too many destructive finishers/oneshots and too few constructive and resource ones.

My Unliving deck says otherwise. With so many cards that build and smash, often at the same time, it's hard to tell until the final draw which victory type it will be. The strategy pretty much ends up being 1) increase Quarry, 2) play expensive cards when triggering keyword effect.

How about raising starting wall again? By 5/7 in normal/long. So after the change the starting wall would be 30/45.

I don't think that rush decks needs nerfing. It's just an effective strategy.
Besides, raising the wall won't affect direct tower attacking decks, which is a type of rush deck no?
