Since everyone is worked up with strategies and deck choices. I'll approach from the vault perspective;
Looking at Higs graboid intent and mrpaper's MA intent;
- If mrpaper uses mono with 15 pillars/pendulums
- If Higs uses graboid with 6 pillars / pendulums
- We are going to have zero pillars / pendulums. We need to convert just enough for 3rd deck, whatever that deck would be. The average should be 13, give or take 1-2, depending on 3rd deck & higs pillar demand on graboid.
As for the 3rd deck, the options can be;
- Fractix
- Fractal vampires
- MA with PU recluses
- Bonebolt with fractal mummies
- Bonebolt stall
- Some entropy duo with PU dragons w or wo flying discords
Save & Salvage options:
Option 1:We would have fractix andFractal vampire decks alive for future rounds.Empower our depleted fractals from 2 to 9Increase phase spiders from 2 to 3 for future phase recluse PU deck.Barely sufficient (13) conversions for r7's 3rd deck

2x Animate Weapon -> 2x Aether Pendulum
1x Graboid -> 1xAether Pendulum
2x Lightning (from 19 in vault to 17. should be enough) -> 3xAether Pillar
2x Parallel Universe (from 10 to 8. should be enough) -> 1x Aether Pillar
13 pillar / pendulum cards for 3rd deck.
Option 2:Sacrifice fractal vampires and sacrifice 1-2 more aether cards compared to option 1, to get some entropy duo deck like this (not saying ideal, just to give an idea. Can also have antimatters and stuff);

Option 3: We give up fractal vampires deck to save more
cards.
Option 4: We give up fractix deck to save more
cards.
Option 5: We loot them little frog buddies to make a fractal frog deck.
More options etc.
* We can also sneak 1-2 discords to Higurashi's graboid deck.
* In both of the options i reduced the graboids from 5 to 4. We can keep it at 5 and discard something else. I just thought Utalan proved that even 3 was enough.
