Possible Enemy Decks

[Toimu13]

I really just wanted a thread to share deck ideas we can not use, but I think are cool  8)

Here is a deck I'm having fun with right now.  Not much damage, but a lot of CC to give you time to get Discord + Devourers with BE out. 

Code: [Select]

4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vd 4vd 4vh 4vh 4vh 4vh 4vl 4vl 4vn 4vn 4vo 4vo 5ul 5ul 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5umJust dueled Mastermind with the above deck and he CRUSHED me with:

Code: [Select]

5bt 5bt 5bt 5bt 5bt 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bu 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5bv 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5c7 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8 5l8I had a PERFECT first 4 hands.  Discord out on 2nd, Devourer out on 3rd, another Devourer out on 4th with BE.  5th turn he drops 2 Drugged Frogs... ect...  So I built and started testing the Rustler Rush deck.  AI3 crushed me because of early Discord/Devourers.  Then in PvP1 someone crushed me with Mono- because of Max Demon/Antimatter!  WTF is with my luck!

I've been thinking of Darkness lately.  Besides Fractal Devourer, the could also go for a BE'd Voodoo Doll.  It counters most of everything Aether has to offer in its mono.

They would BE a devourer I think--still eats quantum.  And lobo removes BE (mind flayer or lobo).  Still, that's a tough deck if you throw in lycanthropes (outside of lightning range) and discord.

Actually Entropy would probably use it; I know Zeru loves to use it.  Next time we face Entropy, let's plan around countering it, imo.

You're right--lightning would destroy the devourer anyway since he wouldn't be able to burrow.

While you're at it, any answers for the discord/BH deck that's already been used this round?  He's also packing gravity pull.  With creatures so expensive, I think we'll have to look for low cost resilient creatures from other elements to have a chance.  Maybe a rainbow with deflags, devourers, steal, minor phoenix, poison/arsenic?  It won't be pretty no matter what.  If we get a dim shield up, that'd stop the discord scramble temporarily, but not sure we can keep pace with that kind of healing.

I think fractal devourers might have a chance , but not if he gets a good starting hand.

Removing discord fast is the most important, I would try to counter it with 3-4 deflags. Also cheap shields are the answer since he will probably not use any perma control ( unless he decides to go for But. effect )
But let's think about winning this round first, shall we?

Demagog had pretty scary deck IMO.
No idea how to counter that  with our current vault.
Protect artifact  on  pillars and fractal his devourers ?

It'll be tough for sure given he has upped card options.  Likely a deck: we have enchant artifact which would negate EQs and give him 5-6 dead cards to draw (he'd probably get one off before we could protect pillars.)  Still, splitting pillars/pendula can soften that blow a little.  After that, lightning for devourers and EA on shields, phase dragons or whatever you want to finish him off.  Fractal devourers is another option but difficult.  No matter what, you need a good opening hand.

I actually mistakenly didn't post what I actually thought.

I meant that Entropy is going to use BE, but on Voodoo Doll instead.  Voodoo Doll can counter Lightning, plus can rid of DS's.

Lobotomizer/mindflayer is still the answer to this i think.  Or just pack EA for shields.  We'll need them given the number of discords packs in every deck.

Mind Flayer, imo, is the best way to go.  Throw in some Dragons/Immortals, maybe some Dimensional Shields to slap some titties around, and we have a winner.
