This really needs options to a) increase font size on the cards and b) Change to a clearer font for the rest. Everything is really hard to read.

Finally got 500, after 2 days, win/lose of 45/7. I would dare anyone to find me a Quest badge that takes longer to accomplish. A well made game, but whew, requires dedication.

@0z9tu Thanks, that's what I was wondering. @TrogdorAnimator: Someone earlier was complaining about how the cards didn't tell you anything, and I asked for an example. My comment asking for an example was marked down, and I didn't understand why.

Wow... the best of 2009 "quest" for Kongregate... This one badge is the biggest rage fest of any badge on this entire site...

To me, i actually think they should have a type of 3, or 4 player free for all :3 but it's still one of my favorite games :3

also, aefields... use google to find wikis. they give tons of info. A lot of games that explain too much take away alot of the mystique of finding out the best combos and how to use cards on your own.

@aefields, you can find 'complete' (maybe somewhat outdated, but mostly correct) rules here: http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,4461.0.html and just ask a question on the forums or in chat if something isn't covered.

"Its a great game except many of the cards have errors and omissions on them. With the text / rules being incorrect it is difficult to play some of the cards properly without really digging to find out what they actually are. *shrug*"
This is completely true. I gave the game 5 stars and favorited it. But I would give the instructions and documentation a zero out of 5 and yes, because there is not space on the card graphics some important information isn't there.

@rocktheworld315: How does fate egg deal with it? By giving you another useless creature or worse, a creature that can be lobo'd? Time has no way at all around dime shield or stalls aside from pure damage, but that doesn't work on dime shields. Best you can do is use procrastination and hope that stalls for 18 turns, which is all but unlikely.

I was just saying that it was possible for time to deal with it. Come on, let's be honest, how many people actually use butterfly effect? Aside from dealing with very specific decks?

Just fought a PVP battle where, in the first turn, my opponent played 5 dragons without playing any pillars/pendulums, going into negative quanta, and completely destroyed me at the end of that turn. Not sure if this is a glitch or a cheat, so I thought I'd flag it.

Tip for getting points when you are deeply in the red, provided you don't have any rare cards, if your score is in the negative and deep in it, you can reset your account, bringing you quickly up to zero.

simonepos. Ok I just gonna add my thought. I didn't meant you wore stupid( just that your comment was ) and I respect what you say but there are some reasons that made me say what I said. 1: I've have read every comment in this comment board for more than 18 months and I've seen dussins of epoeple saying that dim's are op, and I'm tiered of it. 2:if you really think a card is op you better discuss it in chat a few times first to see what others think about this also make people believe you. And this is a mistake to many people do!!!!
And at last I just wonder how many game plays you got? I got more less 12K

@simonepos: All elements except time have some sort of way to deal with dimensional shields. Yes, some are much better then others, but that doesn't change that they are still viable in some situations at the very least.

i played for what to me seems to be a very long while... still maybe i have to play longer to understand this part of the game. i'll tell you my thoughts about it later.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I'm sorry, but I named several counter cards, and they are not "limited", given I wrote a counter to dimshield for just about every single element. Thus, they're not limited at all -- In fact, the common counters such as Deflagration, Steal, Devourer, Discord, and Black Hole are incredibly common on the "top" un-upgraded decks. Oh, I also forgot Earthquake in my list, and I also forgot Chrysaora. :3 Now, I'm going to be slightly rude, but if you believe they are limited to very few decks, you were either lying about playing for very long or you have no idea what you're talking about. Still, I kiind of respect your opinion that Dim Shield is Overpowered -- I just disagree with it entirely, that is all.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i totally respect what you wrote! and i agree that there's more unbalanced cards. still i still think that the counters to dimensional shield are limited to some kind of decks, making the other ones powerless against it. it's probably cause of my style of playing. i keep on having some serious doubts about the soundness of elements, but i admit it is very funny and addicting :)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
So, no, this game is not "completely unbalanced." There were times when a card was unbalanced, and yes, I do believe some cards are -slightly more powerful when compared to others-. But, out of these few cards I believe to be very, VERY slightly more powerful in the unrestricted meta, Dim Shield has not, is not, and will never be one of these cards. Hugs and Kisses, Simonepos!

Thinking it my way, there are a bunch of cards that can counter Dims without necessarily making your deck lose to others. For starters, we have Deflagration, Steal, Butterfly Effect, and Pulverizer; and then we have Fire Bolt, Drain Life, Ice Bolt, Psion, Shard of Wisdom + Any immortal / quinted creature; then we have quanta denial such as Devourers, a well timed Black Hole, a Discord; then we also have Momentum, which also includes Chargers; we also have Catapult, and then we have Poison, Arsenic, all three scorpions; we also have voodoo + any self inflicting harm creature, and you also have the capacity to overheal a dim shield deck with Empathic Bond, or simple heals, or Sanctuaries, or Shard of Gratitude, or Miracle, or Stone Skin.

i honestly don't understand why my opinion should be dumb or underrated by all these players. actually many cards of this game are unbalanced. and by that i mean "unbalanced compared to all the other cards or to the game logic". a card such as dimensional shield implies that if you build your deck to counter it, you get an easy win against it. if you don't, you will lose your game no matter how strong your deck strategy is. and if you biuld a deck to counter it, you will probably lose to all the rest. the quick solution is to use dimensional shield in your deck too, as many many players do: then the whole pvp game becomes flat. my suggestion: resize it! now understand that this is just my opinion after playing for a very long time to elements and after trying a lot of different card games: so, no need to disapprove me... just think about what i said, then think it yor way ;)

I had a Crusader with 20|7 or something, and it had the vampire ability. Then it says "Improve" and it turns into a parasite with 5|1 and scavenger ability. I know they mean improved for being a parasite, but still: Lol.
