Is Poison Dials really that good anymore?

[bipolars]

It seems every deck I face in plat either has purify's or steals for my arsenics or just some way to counter it. Any suggestions?

Wait for the meta to change, then RAGE!!

If you see a lot of non-rainbow slow decks, use pestal. Other times use RoL/Hope. Other times, well, you get the idea.

Quoting the topic's subject...  The answer is YES.  Against FG's it is still the best (in my opinion) or at least among the best (fact!).  Against Plat, not so much.

Also, there's no reason not to use it in gold/silver.

The reason not to use it against silver is that it's like half the speed of other decks with similar win rates in silver.

It's wonderful in gold and against FGs.

It's wonderful against plat when plat isn't full of pdials counters. As there's not really a whole lot of other decks that are used against plat by lots of people, plat is just about always full of pdials counters these days.

Meh, other grinders could be better, but if you don't have one fully upped atm you may as well compare this with the unupped version of the silver rush.
