Guardian of Your Souls is used in any competitive deck

Not true at all. I almost never use it and I won 3rd at the biggest Nationals ever.

Quote

there is a chance that their opponent will get his/her Guardian out first, making Falling Away a wasted card

But by the same token, if you use GoyS, there is a chance your opponent will get FA first making GoyS a wasted card.

I don't like GoyS, it's hard to get, expensive, so I don't reccomend a new player worry that much about getting one.

Not that Lampstand is any easier to grab, being an ultra-rare from a brand new (and significantly larger than Apostles) expansion, but if you're that concerned about guarding against Falling Away, this might be a better option: it's easier to pull due to the numerous search cards that target it (including three new Heroes), and it can protect you from more cards than Guardian does.

MichaelHue · « **Reply #254 on:** October 02, 2006, 07:58:58 PM »

The downside to that is that it protects your opponent to. However, with a bit of planning, this isn't a problem at all, although it can be a problem for your opponent.

The Schaef · « **Reply #255 on:** October 02, 2006, 08:07:37 PM »

This is true. For this to be effective, you have to be ready to win without relying on your own evil Dominants. The upside is, if you are prepared for that, and your opponent is not, then you have the advantage.

Professoralstad · « **Reply #256 on:** October 02, 2006, 08:27:02 PM »

Well, I guess I spoke only from experience, so sorry for my ignorance. My philosophy (and the philosphy of most of those I know) is that Guardian is a necessity because without it, you will almost undoubtedly have to rescue six ls's, whereas if you do have it, there's a fair chance that you won't. With falling away, you may or may not force your opponent to rescue 6, and depending on your strategy, the likelihood is variable. Using Lampstand as a substitute for Guardian in a deck I would oppose, as in order activate any other artifact you have to have a temple/tabernacle as well, so depending on the deck's strategy, it may or may not be efficient. Personally, I have never built a competitive deck (since Apostles at least, obviously) without either one, but I would say that Falling Away is more optional than Guardian.

Does that mean do not get eather?

toad92 · « **Reply #258 on:** October 02, 2006, 09:31:55 PM »

Right?

Professoralstad · « **Reply #259 on:** October 02, 2006, 09:32:39 PM »

I would say you should at least try, because unless you have a streamlined, strategic deck, which will be hard to do until you have played for awhile and have accumulated a large collection, then Guardian and Falling Away both would be better than most other cards you would put in their places.

toad92 · « **Reply #260 on:** October 02, 2006, 09:33:58 PM »

That makes sense.

What is with the lollipop

toad92 · « **Reply #268 on:** October 06, 2006, 01:30:42 PM »

I'm cool like that!
What does the lolipop mean?

Professoralstad · « **Reply #269 on:** October 06, 2006, 03:57:50 PM »

The lollipop means this is a sticky topic, which means that it stays at the top of the board no matter what other threads are posted in. A moderator can sticky a topic when he thinks the subject matter is especially useful to people. Since this thread is for information dissemination to new players, I think it is a wise idea.
