Deck of destruction

The deck of destruction focuses on damaging and debilitating enemies. It is one of Nemelex Xobeh's decks. Under Nemelex, you can hold up to 26 cards of this deck at once.

It contains the following cards:<ref>Template:Source ref</ref>

• Degeneration (10.7%)
• the Orb (17.86%)
• Pain (17.86%)
• the Storm (17.86%)
• Wild Magic (17.86%)
• Vitriol (17.86%)

Strategy

The deck of destruction's cards can be simplified into three main categories:

• 2 (oft-)targetable, elemental attacks - may be piercing, losing 1 range per monster hit.
• 3 LOS attacks - which blow enemies away, mutate them, or deal raw damage.
• 1 Orb of Destruction - See the page for more details.

Therefore, the deck tends to be most useful when there's a line of monsters, or when there's a ton of monsters at once. Of its cards, only Degeneration is likely to be harmful; it polymorphs (which heals monsters), but tends to make easier monsters while inflicting the malmutate status. Thus, destruction gets few benefits from Triple Draw, though Nemelex's other two abilities work anywhere from decent to well (depending on what you actually get).
