Rules
Just in case you still haven't read them

[Calindu]

In addition, that Champion's team receives the Aides' upgraded card benefit for the rest of Stage 1, and the element cannot be used by anyone for the remainder of Phase 1.

Does this means Challengers get 2 more upgrades too?

No, because the Challenger doesn't get the Champions' benefit... just the 2 upgraded cards. (Champions get 4)

Sorry but this is still a  bit unclear for me, so I'll go with an example :
So f.i. squad 2 has 5 champions, 1 permachamp and 3 aides. Does that mean that squad 2 champion have 12 upgrades (10 for champions + 2 from permachamp) and challengers have 6 upgrades ?

Squad 2 champions will have 14 upgrades (5 champions = 10 upgrades, 1 perm.champ = 2 + 2 = 4 updrades)
Squad 2 challengers will have 8 upgrades (3 aides = 6 upgrades, 1 perm.champ = 2 upgrades)

[Paddoo]

Ah, now that makes sense, thanks you very much

[Blacksmith]

Blacksmith treebeard xiii 3-1

This game wore lead by the evil Rng. RNg was very kind at my point of perspective no bad draws and rarely any annoying scramble from him. Even so I think the decks wore pretty equal and I think I could have won anyway and lost. What you think your self?

Won

The decks with aether cards are MPots ideas but the decks are pretty much modified by me. MPots and I both expected Dbh and stall so we wore surprised we didn't meet any. MPots is afradenty at forums.

GGs, your decks looked really nice, but I had incredible luck this time.

Reg was rushing with a mono, so I think the advantage was his. However, his deck was diluted with deflags and he kept drawing those (while I didnt), so eventually I could outdamage him.

I decided to return the favor and go mono this time. I think Reg predicted fractix or dragons cause he had a Lightning Storm deck. It didnt really affect my phoenixes besides delaying them a bit. And I had an incredible start, 1st turn: lots of upped quanta, 2nd turn: farenheit and phoenix. In the end I finished with a couple bolts and a deadly phoenix attack.

I wanted to go with a different deck but in the last second I got a hunch and I changed decks. I faced a TS deck with fractix, which looks bad on paper, but again, I had an incredible start. Starting hand: 6 quanta and MP. 1st draw: MP. 2nd draw: Fractal. 3rd draw: pendulum, so I could Fractal into an empty hand.I just knew I cannot lose form there. In the end the TSes made life hard for the MPs, but I managed to play something like 9 so I always had some up and attacking.

GGs. currently we are at 1-1, so if fate allows it, we will have a decider
(well I hope our team wins before that, I'm afraid of you)

I got a turn 2 Phoenix but his damage built up too fast. A top deck of anything other than a pillar or Deflag on the last turn might have won this.

Another awesome draw for him. I had so much fire quanta and no creatures to spend it on. He won in 8 turns despite 2 or 3 Storms.

Thanks for the games Acsabi! Hopefully we'll get to play again in 2 rounds time.
