To those members of Team Death: Congrats for winning war! That said, there were teams that had large early advantages (Earth/Time/Entropy) over you guys. Do you feel that your coming back to win was a result of luck, skill, event cards, or any combination of those? If you had to choose 1 team that you would have chosen to win war, other than yourself, who would it be?
Years ago we had Ronald Reagan, Johnny Cash, Bob Hope, and Steve Jobs. Now we have Obama, no hope, no cash, and no jobs.

Death! i love this element :D

MrBlonde: You are the longest ever-lasting master so far. What do you think has led you to this? How much time do you think you can keep it?
EDIT: Also, When will this avatar change?

Malignant: If ever you became master, would you do anything else than eat marshmallows?

Jippy: While I may be wrong, what I know of you is that, while you are an awesome person in this community as a whole, you seem to lack in the PvP part. How do you plan on getting over that?

Ralouf: I know of you as a good PvE and PvP player. Though, the in-game is not everything. What have you done/what do you plan on doing for this community?

As being in the trial where the winner of war will have a dominating upped card advantage, how do you feel about the current trial reward to the top placings of war? Do you think there should be a reward for war besides the banner+awards? If you had to pick another reward for war other than trial points, what would it be?

You're just as selfish as I am. You're just not as good at it yet.

I think we may have a better rewards, war is the beggiest event in the forum and all we won is just a shiny forum icon. We don't even have our banner in the forum. I think that all the member of the winning team should win a mark/nymph from the element they belong. it may seems a big reward but if this had been implemented since the beginning we would have only 4*8 = 32 more nymph/mark. That's not a lot considering how much nymph players usually have.
Maybe this maybe tweaked to prevent the 8 player to win a mark though.

Congratulations to Team Death for winning War #4! ^_^

Q: "That said, if you were in Team Death, what was your team’s strongest point that led you to the final victory against Light? (Especially considering their immense deck variety and veteran players) If you weren’t on the team, do you think one deck archetype, battle, or card had led the team to a prosperous advantage? Most importantly, how do you feel about your Death banner not being placed up yet despite War ending several months ago? XD”

Poison or Arsenic might have been the card that led the Team to victory, since there are very little cards that are able to counter it.

FixthebannerSG!
Would you associate Romeo and Juliet to?

Death won War #4. Do you feel like this happened by chance or that with the game balanced as it is now Death could win many more wars?

At this point, I feel like I should ask you to post a related song.

Never read/saw Romeo and Juliet, except for the ending. Yes.

Seems more likely by chance. Game isn't completely balanced yet.

I know very few songs. Closest one to Death I know, and it might be terrible. Link.
Congratulations to Team Death!

Q:"Do you think some event cards made team death to win or simply the decks archetypes were complex and good enough?"

I am sure some Event Cards helped Team Death a lot. Of course, their decks might be very good, but I'm too lazy to check.
To the Element who has proved themselves worthy of winning War and is also my elemental opposite...I have a question.

Q:  Death's victory in War symbolizes it being one of the most powerful Elements in PvP.  Meanwhile, Life is still labeled as one of the most inferior and least popular of Elements despite the two being Elemental opposites.  What do you think is the leading cause between the gap between the two Elements?  In other words:  What do you think Life lacks that Death does not?  Try to list as many flaws as you can using specific cards, Elemental themes, etc. to better support your points.
Death have Poison and Bonewall. A good card for indirect damage, and a good shield.
The following questions/comments will be sharp and pointed. They may hurt your feelings, but they are meant to help me and the community see how you handled adversity and tough questions. So, don't take too much offense to it, I'm gonna be grilling everyone. Also, I don't hate any of you, it's just my RL interviewing being used for the community vote.

MrBlonde
What percent of the work did you do in this last War?
Malignant
I've never heard your name mentioned without the word lazy. Have you changed?
jippy99
You got beat by the other two challengers. If you made it to the final battle, would MrBlonde complete the sweep? Also, you said it was a real team effort, but that's not how it looked on my end. (I've got a chance to look at the Death secret section after War.) What were YOUR biggest contributions? Please be specific.
ralouf1
Is it true that you submitted a deck for War that had less than 10 Death cards in it?
I haven't, and I won't. Will be forever lazy, but for some important things, rarely, I will do work. (Deicide.)
Death! i love this element

Be lazy.
As being in the trial where the winner of war will have a dominating upped card advantage, how do you feel about the current trial reward to the top placings of war? Do you think there should be a reward for war besides the banner+awards? If you had to pick another reward for war other than trial points, what would it be?
Tourney codes.
If death death had no poison and there was no poison mechanic in the game what would you replace arsenic and poison with and how do you think this would effect death. Also do you think that poison was one of the big reasons death won the latest war. finally do you think that its fair for there to be only one element and only one card that counters poison what others element's do you think should be able to stop poison as well. (it cannot be an element that already has a card that causes poison)

A question was requested by jippy i wasnt really planning to ask death trial particpants a question/questions but he seemed so bored so i just couldnt say no.
No idea.

Yes.

Other elements should have a soft counter to Poison, but not all.
Death is currently one of the strongest element in both unupped/upped PvP environment, which is displayed by the outstanding performance in War 4. Do you think Death can continue its superior status until War 5? If not, what kind of mechanic/card combination/decks do you think will change this?
No idea. RNG is too RNG-ish.

Some elements getting counters to Poison.

My challenge to all competitors: Build me a deck (at least 50% death) that can get a Silver spin, oh and for added creativity, no Bonewalls, Poisons, or Mummies allowed. Good luck and have fun!
