1. Animation 5/5, the one with it spitting and swallowing back the brain is a little bit weird but I'm over it, pretty much all of the animations are really great
2. Rift trait 2/5
3. Size (if you don’t own Greymatter, please check a friend’s park) 5/5
4. Price (15,700 Candy) 1/5
5. How well does Greymatter fit the theme of the event 4/5
6. Design details 4/5
7. How would you rate Greymatter’s breeding combo (ZOMBIE + BROOD) 2/5, why these two specifically?
8. How much do you like Greymatter (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 4/5
Comments/feedback for Deca Honestly the best apocalypse dragon introduced in this event (but still why is this an apocalypse element dragon)
1. Animation: 5/5 2. Rift trait: 3/5 3. Size: 4/5 4. Price (15,700 Candy): 1/5 5. Theme: 5/5 6. Design details: 5/5 7. Breeding combo (ZOMBIE + BROOD): 2/5 8. How much do you like Greymatter: 4/5
Comments: First off, I'll say that Greymatter has grown on me. Initially I felt its body typing (read Triceratops) was lacking and didn't fit the Halloween feel. Now I'm enjoying how cartoonish it is instead, and that it isn't overdesigned, allowing the brain and character to shine. Whoever came up with this animation should be very proud of themselves. I got a laugh when the brain spilled out and the dragon stopped moving. The intense thinking face as it moves the pepper is wonderful. The dragon's a little big. Generally I'm ok with that, especially with tiny headed dragons, but given the robustness of this particular body type, I think a teeny bit smaller would have been better. The traiting was a little lackluster, in my opinion. The bib effect, while large, isn't particularly attractive. Deca has played a lot with traiting details and I think this dragon could have benefited from that - the spots on its back look perfect for traiting.
Price.. oh boy. I guess I'll just say 'thanks for making the breeding odds doable'. Breeding combo.. Thankful Brood has 10% co-op cloning odds. That takes the edge off, unless one is going for a traited version. Most people should be able to get a normal version fairly quickly through co-op breeding and technically had all year to try (though the constant events that keep players from breeding for out-of-season dragons affects that). But dang. It, and its buddies Amalgamate and Hydnellum, were only available for 2 weeks total before this event and one of those was a dragon week. I'm just getting tired of this over and over again. Greymatter doesn't even look like it needs Brood as a parent aesthetically. I'm at a loss as to why Brood is a parent besides wanting people to spend money getting it. Not subtle anymore. Also, having Zombie as a parent isn't a good reason to make this an apocalypse element dragon. It really just seems spooky, unless I'm missing some pop culture reference.
1. Animation 4 - The animations are very unique and have lots of personality! The way its neck moves in some animations do look a bit off though, but that's just a nitpick.
2. Rift trait 2 - The trait is nice on its brain and horn, but looks very off everywhere else.
3. Size (if you don’t own Greymatter, please check a friend’s park) 5 - I think its large size fits well with its chubby design.
4. Price (15,700 Candy) 1 - Terrible price, especially for a first limited.
5. How well does Greymatter fit the theme of the event 5 - Mad scientists are a staple of many spooky stories, and this cutesy take on them definitely fits the theme of the event.
6. Design details 5 - This dragon has a wonderful color scheme, and I love the see through-head. The dragon's chubbiness also adds to its cuteness. The baby is also very baby-like.
7. How would you rate Greymatter’s breeding combo (ZOMBIE + BROOD) 2 - Brood is a very recent dragon, which is also very difficult to breed. Zombie is a bit easier dragon to breed, and it also fits with the design, as the zombie dragon is also green, as well as how zombies are known to eat brains.
8. How much do you like Greymatter (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 5 - Greymatter is such a lovable dragon with a cute design and animations full of personality.

Deca, please lower the prices for these dragons, they are way too high. Breeding these dragons are also becoming difficult due to the inclusion of hard to get dragons in the breeding combo.
3. Size (if you don’t own Greymatter, please check a friend’s park): 5
4. Price (15,700 Candy): 3
5. How well does Greymatter fit the theme of the event: 5

7. How would you rate Greymatter’s breeding combo (ZOMBIE + BROOD): 1
8. How much do you like Greymatter (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!): 4

Undoubtedly, the best part of the animation is when Greymatter spits out his own brain (which is hilarious by itself), then freezes until his brain returns. So medically accurate! It gives new meaning to the term 'brain freeze'.
The fact that Greymatter's brain has the Rift trait earns full marks. Genius idea!
Why is Brood in the breeding combo?!?! Brood added FOUR elements and doesn’t match Greymatter or make any sense whatsoever. All the brains are lost here. Greymatter was ridiculously difficult to breed because there were far too many breeding fails, thanks to Brood and Zombie bringing SEVEN elements. The breeding percentage needed to be 10%. In every event, this problem occurs. Is Deca looking at the number of elements that a breeding combo contributes and the number of offspring, then adjusting the breeding percentage? It doesn’t seem like it. Breeding combos like this are ruining the game.
I like Greymatter’s Triceratops look and the bubble brain. He's a humerous fellow. There is nothing wrong with this dragon, except its breeding combo and low breeding percentage.

Comments/feedback for Deca The artistic style of Greymatter is really different from the others in this event. It really doesn’t really match. The breeding combo was REALLY frustrating, and this was the FIRST limited dragon. Please increase the breeding percentages. Greymatter is cute but doesn’t fit the Apocalypse element or dragons at all.
