if only he had forgot my strength i could have won this match in game 4

[vagman13]

if only he had forgot my strength i could have won this match in game 4

Just to make things clear,I managed to get a pulvy out just one turn before losing,breaking EM and double loss because of his strength.

[majofa]

Double post because important: Since this came to my attention with DANIEELA vs. Dragoon.  Any negative ups count as upgrades for your opponent: so in this scenario, if Danieela can use -6 upgraded cards, and Dragoon can use -2, it is treated as DANIEELA using 2 ups, and Dragoon using 6, NOT DANIEELA using 0 and Dragoon using 4.

[vagman13]

and that means I could have used 6 ups and nensuru also 6 ups ? Or we should both stay at 0 ?

[Dragoon]

If I understand right, you both could have used 6 ups.

[Spielkind]

hmm... those rule looks strange... but ggs vag, gratz for winning with 2 decks!

[Laxadarap]

and that means I could have used 6 ups and nensuru also 6 ups ? Or we should both stay at 0 ?

Yes, whoever, technically there were no illegal decks, as you guys both just used less ups than you were allowed.  Result stands.

First 2 wins, second one against disco-hall which I was most afraid of, but barely managed to pull off a last-turn win.
Third game I lost (was very close again, 4hp I think), so it was time to change the deck...

Illegal Deck for last 4th game:

RNG helped me out on this one, I had a good draw, while Blacksmith a pretty bad one.

I derped, I was not allowed to use ups in this game, my strength have run out. (3rd game was still legal, because of Mindless weakness). So this counts as a Loss.
