End round thoughts
Dark domin is a copy paste deck from last war. Worked well vs most of our decks last war, so I believe they did their homework.
Death PUgons is a mod from last war's dragontal and prooves the feeling I had (from WP) that shantu likes rushing, even domin/stall cards are mixed in such a way that they buy time for the rush. On the contrary the Q balance for this one is shifted towards OTK which leaves me undecisive in the above statement. Sending out a Strat with 32 cards amazes me, since shantu is very meticulous with details like those...probably means dims/PU/llightnings and no other aether cards in vault
Death rush designed for dims, only deck that used poison.
Bonestorm's bonebolt deck seems that tries to do many things at the same time but after testing seems it rushes well and death now has 2 bypass options poison and psion
Shantu's deck is a copy of last war and I believe it represents he's idea of using denial/cc...rush and have those slow you at the same time. Idea impersonated partly in bonestorm and dark duo. Packs many creatures, atleast 9 in all decks and tries to rush often
They used 1/6 poisons this round...expect to change drastically round2? 1 denial rush, 1 rush, 1otk dimstall, 2 domin rushes. Shantu is going about it pretty rushy, even bonebolt was modded for more speed

I'm not going to say this in all of the vault tracking threads, but nice work guys.  This is really phenomenal analysis.
Aye, I'd expect to see more poison in later rounds.  It's possible they avoided using poison R1 because they want to weed out all the purifies from vaults.  The number of creatures in each deck is noteworthy as is the number of copy pasta decks.  Team Death seems to be very shield aware.  Not much more to add.

End round thoughts
4 pastas from last round, a Wings deck, and they tried to make a flying titan from salvage.
They added fractals to their dim deck that for some reason didn't include recluses.    I think they might've vaulted too many mummies and not enough recluses.
Not one single poison in R2.  If we get through one more round we could almost pack up our purifies for good.   
Continues to be very creature heavy.  Facing Team Death without shields is folly.
12 decks seen so far ranging from 30-32 cards.

Conclusions:
31 of 60 cards known - not sure what to make of the remainder - they haven't had a lof of success with their decks in the last couple rounds. I expect they salvage enough from last round that they can run a dark duo or more likely a fractal deck - and perhaps enough from the round before they could do a Disco splash - but rob mentioned in chat that they felt like they didn't have a lot of options as to what deck they were going to run vs. Aether - so my assumption is they've got crappy cards left.
