Discuss.

[Shaliyah]

As it concerns my battle, I have a feeling that my opponent will come with a deck based on dune scorpions and momentum. Momentum will pierce the dim shields, dune scorpions are based on our fractal or twin universe so more poison will be added. On the other hand, reverse time will be played since they won't expect from us to come with a deck with immortal creatures. Apart from that I even expect black holes for quanta denial. Any other thoughts?

[mrpaper]

If we believe in dune scorps the options are (in no order)...
a) any deck with lobos to remove the skill
b) bone bolt to over poison em
c) a grabs ( with no growing creatures) deck with purify in it
Then again, Idk if momentum is the way to go for em since they can't rt our dragons (or immortals if we had any) so they are much less effective.

Markilleruk and Shaliyah.. you got some electrums to buy a couple of upped cards if needed? It would be great for the team if you do!

I have around 35k electrum, upped aether cards and a couple upped other cards by FGs. =)

As per my war application I have around 75% of all cards upped. i could easily ensure that I have 3 copies of every card in our vault upped if necessary.

As  for electrum: 26273 and an estimated 10-15k in spare cards (12+) that I have not yet sold to the Bazzar.

*goes back to new rare shard hunting*

[markilleruk]

For Air I suspect they will bring one of two different decks, unfortunately they each require polar opposite responses from us.

1. deflag + gas

deflag for phase shields, gas for damage

Response: healing/bonewall

2. Poison + flying owls eye

Response: mono aether splash water for purify

As air lost with the former I don't suspect they will go for the deflag gas route. therefore I suggest a mono aether/purify deck. I will post my suggested deck shortly.
*wishes we packed more purify in vault *

[mrpaper]

great for the electrums, we can then build whatever best deck we can for the 3 upgrade cards.

I don't see air using flying owls eye since it's ability is useless against our dragons.  they could use flying arsenic to upgrade the poison but it still doesnt' help much if we are to go with phase shields.  flying titans is probably the best option for em if they go with a flying weapon deck.   
Healing won't do the trick if they go the unstable gas route because they will wait and  1 turn kill us.

I wouldn't be surprised if they decided to go with a grabs deck putting 3 deflags to destroy our shields, 2 fog shields to limit any damage from dragon or whatever we can surprise em to come with (wings are useless for dragons and spiders so no likely) probably 2-3 azure dragons since they can survive our bolts, a purify to prevent our bone bolt and a few other cards.

[markilleruk]

Unless Higs has strong objections or someone with more experience than I has a better suggestion for vs air I would like to use the following deck.

I tested it against each of the decks in the Theory crafting thread and a deck suggested by Mr paper using flying titans and a fog shield.

I won every single game 15/15 with it. I am very confident in this decks potential vs Air. I would like to heat a suggestion for an Air graboid deck I can test it against: or better yet does someone want to play an air graboid deck against me to see how it goes?

Thoughts? Feelings? Criticisms? General angst?

[Shaliyah]

Here are my thoughts against time.

(http://helltgivre.free.fr/elements/?deck=z24vlz34vpz961oz461t61vz363az280f8pj)

An early discord will stop them, plus if they bring reverses, they won't be able to use them. Most probably they will be expecting us to start fractaling or PUing creatures instead of bringing down our immortal ones. Tweaking and comments are mostly welcome. =)

I am of the opinion that we bring bonebolt, as they have a difficult time countering it.

[EvaRia]

Dropping off a grabbow for time as well, if Shali doesn't feel like bringing bonebolt.
