Thank you.
I have icons for all but one of these new decks. I found and sized a nice pic for Princess Selenia:

Thanks for the pic Chris.
Here is another easy deck. Based on the crappy combination of Demons and Ogres:

I play tested the deck and it might be in between tier 1 and tier 2.
For tier 1 we could replace about 2 or 3 of the creatures with a spell or artifact? We might want to have weaker life gaining cards?
For tier 2 we could have a few equips to make these ogres/demons stronger?

I play tested the Atomic Robo deck against a good level up deck that I was able to put together last year when I played a long term quest. Atomic Robo performed fairly well.
The deck theme is different enough from our other quest decks that it will likely leave a lasting impression on the user base. Good job!

Wow just played against Cave Troll 2 today with a new WGr quest mode using an adjusted starter pool (not the toolkit one, just more cards). And it was a brutal matchup, but I managed to outrace him after getting destroyed the first game. Hopefully people won't hate me for that deck.

Remove three creatures and add in one of each of these enchantments?
Gaea's Anthem
Glorious Anthem
Marshal's Anthem

Mmh, better would be enchantments that give out +1/+1 counters to reset persist.Chris H. wrote:`Sloth wrote:Here is a deck centered around persist creatures:

I made another medium deck. It's centered around Punishing Fire and Kavu Predator:
A lot of good cards are not AI compatible: Fiery Justice and Invigorate for example.
Any more ideas for cards that will give life to the opponent would be nice.

How about Collapsing Borders (not sure if we have that)? Maybe in the level 3 deck when we're using Lands that have Basic Types.
