The cat-lovers Vetruvian happy thread

We will be great again

Okay so the card i would drop are wind slicers x3, Wind Shrike x3, entropic x1 and Autarch’s Gift x 1.

The cards i would add are Allomancer x3 (Its great value), Divine Spark x2, Lightbender x2 (This is really just for cass but its a great dispell unit), Aymara Healer x1.

Good suggestions for the most part but I would stress 3 Aymara as soon as you can. I prefer Shroud to light bender thought that is more personal preference. Allomancer can be a little slow though it is by no means a bad card, you can also sub in something like Primus Shieldmaster or Dioltas.

Should i craft rashas curse?

1 Like

If you intend on playing Vet, certainly

I’m doing pretty good with saberspine, i feel rasha’s curse a little too occasional.

But i understand it’s better :3

Anyway rasha’s main use is to get range for dispel and/or remove ranged units (needed to be told).

I been vet main since the start of 2016, Oh i regret my days of songhai so

Anyway this is my deck, waiting on the rest of the expansions cards to fine tune it.
Currently im rank 3 diamond going on to 2. Same deck i been using and i found out that the more Nosh Raks the better :wink: because if nosh rak doesnt kill them the turn he is played and he somehow survives. The second Nosh Rak makes the damage to the enemy general x4 and that isnt a good thing for puny vaath to handle. Anyway my decklist.

Ps. Im waiting on more packs to fine tune it

Thanks for the suggestions, although I don’t have any Allomancer or Aymara. Does Allomancer have a random chance to summon obelysks from effects like the Soulburn obelysk (from Nimbus)? Since I don’t know as I don’t own the card.

Yes allomancer can summon Soulburn, thats why i highly suggest using one, however i do not suggest crafting them because they are expensive and not necessary for the deck to be powerful. However i do suggest crafting atleast 2 Aymaras

Yup. It can summon Ethereal, Fireblaze, Windstorm or Soulburn

Thought I’d post my current Sajj build. Hoping Vetruvian can regain some power without global removal…

Edit: This is after quite a bit of playtesting/grinding. I would love someone to test in Diamond or S-Ranks. I’m climbing through Gold, atm.

This deck looks pretty amazing although 3 autarchs gifts kind looks like too much, i would advise to replace one with a third incinera, because it is a strong body with a great effect that stacks

IT STACKS? YOOOOO. I gotta get 3 on board.

Leaping boards in a single bound. It’s SAJJ!

Something for us fire wielding sand mummies to enjoy while we play our forgotten faction.

I just want to know, who here in this forum and thread main vetruvian and want to see the imperium become top tier again? I know i am one of those people, i love the idea of our community working together on one deck to crush them all tbh. If you are a vet main then it would be cool to say what made u choose them as a main below.

What made me main them?
They looked cool. Seriously, that’s it.
I tried out the faction and because of my national backgrounds (southwest Asian (i.e. Pakistani) with ancestry in Arabia) Fire and Sand kinda seemed like my elements.
Tried out the faction, fell in love with it. I joined after all the heavy nerfs to Vet, so I didn’t get to abuse 4/7 Scarabs, +3/+3 and Blast on any friendly STW, 0/9 PGs’, 9 Mana, take another turn TMs’ or all that fun stuff. I was still a noob when FaceMonkey Zirix was a thing, so I didn’t even really get to abuse that. Instead, I’m left with this shadow of a faction that feels inferior to everything else. The only time I’ve felt powerful as Vet is when the Control Sajj meta was a thing during the Era of Kron right after DoS dropped and your deck had like 12 Legendaries in it. xD

I chose them above all the others mainly because of their “weak” strategy (i triggered myself too).

all about positioning with less hard removal than other factions, i like chess so zirix’s deck got me just like that (something like "whisper do you wanna have value when you deserve it? slowly fading choooose meeeee).

And i’m not the deamon type nor dinosaurs nor ninja (even if the best job in the world is the ninja-sniper imo).
Didn’t chose lyonar mainly because of the face of their general at first, then i tryed them…and i closed that door for good

I took the Vet path for similar reasons to @edward4244
I enjoy the challenge in games. I don’t enjoy being absolutely inferior to each other faction, though.
I love the idea of a community working together to overcome the design limitations of our faction.
The lack of a global damage/removal presence, however, means top-tier might just have to wait.

ps: I started the game a little over 2 months ago. I’ve only known the “post siphon nerf” Vetruvian

Saw it now, if you do something like this instead of chosing the tile to dispel click on “cancel” it should put the ephimeral shroud (or anything you played) in your hand again.

I don’t really main any particular faction, but Vet was probably the faction I played the most of, when I first started back in January. Nowadays its Abyssian/Magmar but I change between 5 factions (hate Songhai) since I enjoy using a variety of cards as a casual player. The thing I enjoy the most about Vet is using your obelysk positioning wisely. Since even a dispelled obelysk can be used later in the game to help trap your opponent or burst down with Whisper of the sand. Plus I also enjoy using mechs with them every now and then in combination with buffing spells like first wish and second wish.
