-Well, no sane person's going to add 5 counter attacks to any one character. -I thought an earth/water would come first, due to the problems with making something heal AND giving them a four turn 2:1 thing. And freeze too. And then someone went and made this deck ._. I think ice would be around the top of the list for elements that would benefit most from gaining a fresh start and healing. Edit: Curses, autocorrect.

Off-topic: @Luckydude Are you Traiden according to TFP? On-topic: Xmas Elf is truly one of the most powerful character that is even on par with lots of SG characters. Not to mention is a FREE character. Any player will use this free character to own the PvP. But it doesn't mean Xmas Elf is unbeatable, just very difficult with the amount of defence she have. With Healing Spring covering up HP and 2 shatter being her key offensive card, Xmas Elf is really one tough character. Nulgath is really extremely kind to release Xmas Elf as a free character to every single player. Oh well, this is what make OS balance between free and SG characters which is one good thing.

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 9:25:16)
@DidYouKnowThat Honestly, the higher level the Xmas Elf is, the stronger they actually get. A lvl 20 Xmas elf to me, is the definition of an unstoppable force. I like the idea of Shadow Vs Ice, as Shadow you'd be able to rush down the Elf before they can build up enough charges to abuse Shatters/shields/heals, but at level 20, that's litterally impossible unless you start with 3x Poisons at 4th without getting frozen. Other than that, I'd imagine the only other element to be able to verse against Xmas Elf effectively would be a legendary Light character. Though it's harder for a light character to maintain shields/healths while dealing damage, unlike the Xmas elf. I'm not sure whether to level her up for a while, I know she'll get nerfed at some point. There is no way that they'd leave Xmas Elf like this, she is just too good to be true in my opinion.

@Death Angel quote: Though it's harder for a light character to maintain shields/healths while dealing damage, unlike the Xmas elf. That's where you are slightly wrong. You forgot Queen Aegea. ;)

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 9:41:23)
She is on the more defensive side of things, especially with Iron Hide, but I doubt she could muster enough damage to finish off the Xmas Elf. Her Counter Attack card is completely made useless against Xmas Elf due to Elf's ability to simply dot you up with shatters, which ignores Counter Attack. That makes 1 card in the deck completely useless against an Xmas Elf. I think Queen Aegea would be able to sustain well against an Xmas Elf, but I don't think she can do enough damage to the Elf at lvl 20.

Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 9:46:05)
@Angel True but only the draw of the cards and the ability of the players' technique in using Queen Aegea well may help to win against Xmas Elf at level 20 but it won't be easy task. Rather, it will be an extremely very long battle between Queen Aegea and Xmas Elf due to both being too defensive. Also they have healing which pretty much going to stall the battle way longer than I can even imagine!

Axel459 -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 9:47:29)
quote: -I saw Axel running around with orc; I'm curious as to why orc might be great despite the deck. I've begun to realize that I favor characters who have a lot of DoTs, Orc Chief and works great with 1 or 2 Corruption especially since he has so many shields, iron hides, and counter attacks you can just stack them without getting hurt. @Death Add a Corruption to her deck and she can be considerably better though with the fix to greater heal she might be a little worse.

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 9:59:50)
I could see Corruption being a great asset to her, though at the cost of a Iron Hide since Corr costs 10 Neutral charges. Queen Aegea might as well be the best response to Xmas Elf, but thats majorly dictated by her ability to use the Neutral charges with Neutralise to her advantage. She can be very versatile just by putting Corruption in her deck. You can go with a defensive sort of deck by just keeping Corr away from your deck and use Iron hide, or other way around (except you cant remove iron hide from her deck ofc)

Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 10:04:06)
She still have 5 shields to cover up her defence, so its still safe to use Corruption and we can still use Neutralize to gain another 10 Neutral energy.

And then try and see how it is with CC's Take SS! I have one, I'll be on a bus for a while today but when I get back on here I'd be happy to do some tests. :D quote: Off-topic: @Luckydude Are you Traiden according to TFP? Yes he is! :D

Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 12:12:03)
@TFP Traiden/Lucky told me already. :D Honestly, I am not surprise one day Traidan might be one of the forumite but never expect it to be today. xD Its nice if more of the players we know in-game will be new forumites too so OS forum will be more lively than usual and hopefully older forumites will return. :D

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 12:23:25)
I'd love to have helped with the testing of Xmas Elf, but I lack both level 20's atm and time on my hands [:(]

branden80 -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 19:56:58)
everyone who recognizes me will know that i used to use frost void, one of the original sg evos, (i.e. shadow dance, katana zon, etc.) when oversoul first began, these were the coolest chars in the game, and i loved frost void because he was th first ice character, and it was before the def cap, therefore making him and the barbarian the strongest characters in the game, then the def cap came and they became the weakest chars in the game, and when all the new chars started coming, the originl sg evos became weaker and weaker, so i believe all of the old chars should get new legendary evos to get revamped with better cards

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 20:14:41)
It's not as simple as you make it sound like. Nulgath would have to make a ton of legendary art. They'd need to code it etc. There is no need for compensation. Go pick up the xmas elf and call it a day.

clintonian -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 20:23:07)
@branden i agree with ya man i had katana zon and earth wizard from then and now they are basically weak even with cc

branden80 -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 20:47:15)
@thedeathangel they already made over 200 characters, and they are going to make alot more, so why not add the legendaries to the list? and they dont have to worry about art,they have revontheus! one of the best artists in artix entertainment!

Beck -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 21:01:28)
How about switching Xmas Elf's 2 Springs to 2 Refreshes? Thoughts? @above We're trying to limit the number of Legendaries, and also nowadays Rev is part-time Oversoul, at best. He's helping out on the EpicDuel team. EDIT: @below Yup, that's me. Minor name change to be less pretentious xD

branden80 -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 21:05:09)
beck? the beck? lord beck? s that you?! minor? your an archknight! how did you become one?!? wheres everyone else? andlu, axel, mondez, asuka, the jop, the sage, the finnish pheonix, basicball, and jmagician, all of the original oversoul forumites? which ones was refresh? just to keep it on topic

The Death Angel -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 21:16:43)
@Beck: Yeah, I suggested that we replace the healing springs with Refreshes 1 page ago. Refresh just makes more sense in Xmas Elf's deck, while not being too much healing for the opponent to handle. It's probaly the best replacement in terms of the water element healing imo.

Beck -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/29/2013 21:18:49)
Yup yup, Refresh works with shields, which Ice characters have, yet it's limited so she'd be less OP. I'd support either that, or ditching Freeze.

How can you forget me? :( Most of the forumites you mentioned were still around except for Basicball. Some came back a few weeks ago and same original OS forumites returned and post a few times when there is a release.

BJEBLE -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/30/2013 1:51:16)
@branden And Vagaran. I know I came a little bit late, but I still count too, right?[:D]Anyways, a lot of them are still here, and some just post when there's a release out.

JoelJ1998 -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/30/2013 2:15:33)
I'm an old forumite too :'(

Skurge -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/30/2013 2:42:56)
Let's try and stay on topic fellas. ;)

Megadragonknight -> RE: =OS= Balance Discussion Thread (12/30/2013 7:01:53)
The older characters do need their deck to be re-constructed to be even with the newest characters. This will ensure the new player won't waste their SG on older SG characters they felt are not worthy.
