I have a youtube channel full of me playing plants (on the old client). It's my go-to BG! E.g. Also, if you can do any recordings of you playing it I'd watch the hell out of it. I'd love to see plants played well.
Champions: 2x Aspect of Growth 2x Coral Creeper 2x Firk Botanist 2x Firk Thornflinger (Since swapped for 2x Jellebrium Mender) 1x Moog 2x Mucker 2x Poison Oak 2x Thicket Crawler Spells: 2x Backfire 1x Bubble of Protection 1x Cleansing Mist 2x Font Eruption 1x Murkwater Weakness 1x Reverberating Blast 2x Font of Restoration 1x Poison Trap 1x Spirit Altar 1x Emergency Kit 1x Gold Sand 1x Horn of Order
It’s just that new players don’t know the runes by their images so I prefer to write it out in case a newer player finds the forums. Me too man best game in a while - 250hp aspect of growth lol
But I find the picture easier to navigate being an oldie. Why not best of both worlds and include both
Out of interest, what do you use the Gold Sand for? Is that just to get magical damage in case of incorporal? Also, I don't know if you have room in the BG but if you are using the Aspect then Poison Dart works really well with it. It makes it a ranged champ and if you sync your use of the Recharge ability it will reduce the cooldown on the poison sting as well. That can catch people out.
why not split kf? you get 1. tons of new plants and access to boost, commander and defender. 2. greenhouse. put it near moog for fun 3. spontaneous growth and covenant on aspect=multiply 40 not 20. your aspect would be 500hp not 250. 4. thirion
Why play anything but the top meta decks? Clearly they wanted their plant bg to stick to the FS thematic and identity rather than just mashing all the best runes in it.
is kf/fs plants top tier? btw my "why not" was a " why not try to" not a " you should do this or you are bad"
never implied it was or you were. But this is in the FS(rather than split) forums and the OP specifically stated FF. The meta comparison is that yes obviously the plant bg would be blatantly better with the inclusion of KF runes considering theyre actually built to use that theme but this looks like a gimmick or "for fun" bg and theyve been surprised at how well its preformed and wanted to share.
Attio and Maru are guildmates, and Maru is a well-known quirky funky deckbuilder. It was really just a conversation between two friends wherein Maru suggested splitting KF for added shenanigans. Nothing to get this involved/heated about duke.
Quick note: If you play the Spirit Altar and grant Noble Sacrifice (Loyalty) before the first growth you are going at 31/growth. You can also add The Collective if not a plant theme to get to 36/growth. If you are patient (probably not a realistic option) then the Bog Pearl works and you can shatter it once it has finished to get the nora refund. That gets up to a potential 46/growth. For splits, the KF goodies can add Boost, as well as the ones you listed for +25 more. Of course, the classic split was always with FW and a Repurpose on a Wavecrusher.
