Round 3 Decks

[thraexis11]

TEAM LIFE has played no FFQ in the first 2 rounds--I wouldn't worry about them so much.

Oh RLY?

We have some deck issues and are trying to resolve:
1.  4 Nightfalls for 3 darkness decks (2 fractal devourers, 1 flying stilettos) will not work as posted.  Working on alternatives
2.  Tinkady may not be able to play stiletto deck anyway--only listed 1 in auction. 
3.  Would love to have EQ x4 in 2 decks, but only have 6 total, so may have to skimp or go with alternative decks.

I am sorry that we can not play what we wanted bcs of lack of cards, but I guess it is our own fault. By looking at our opponents I think that artagas has the toughest one(darkness had 8-1 last round). Also there is quite a chance that his opponent will be having nightfalls in his deck ( he is team darkness after all ), so I think it would make sence to change 2 nightfalls in artagas deck for something else.
But it is your choise in the end I guess.

So if you decide to provide me with 2 nightfalls I would like that you update my deck with toimu's version  of it :

Code: [Select]

5um 5um 5um 5um 5uo 5up 5up 5up 5uq 5uq 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 622 622 622 622 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a 63aNo lobo and thunders, but I am getting devourers and fractals in hand 1 and that is what I really want.

That other deck Toimu made has 1 less pillar , and it just doesn't produce enough quanta unless you are lucky with pillars in opening hand- but I prefer not to take any chances.

Also, after looking at Life's decks from round 1 and 2, i saw LOTS of discords.  an early discord could spell defeat for thraexis...  again, please consider this, thraexis:  3 lightnings wont be enough for a firefly queen deck.  you need 2 lightningsjust to kill one queen.  it just isnt enough.  i really think if you replace one lightning with 1 dusk mantle, it can do you a load of good.  Besides, it blocks queens too so you dont need to kill them.  firefly spam?  steal the bonds.

4.  Considering reshuffling icecoldbro's deck (fractaled physalia is interesting and comes off okay, but requires a death pillar in opening hand to have a chance to keep up.) This would  free up fractals for other decks
ORIGINAL (Rd 1 Artagas' round 1 poison/dragon deck with upped poison):

Code: [Select]

52q 52q 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61q 61q 61q 61q 61q 61q 61t 61t 61t 61t 61v 61v 61v 718 718 718 718 718 718
Or, depending on what's left in the vault:

Code: [Select]

52q 52q 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61q 61q 61q 61t 61t 61t 61t 61v 61v 61v 61v 63a 63a 63a 718 718 718 718 718 718

i dont like this idea of reshuffling icb's deck...  i dont know how to explain...  but i dont like it... 

for tinkady's deck, why dont we go 3 x enchant artifact, 2 x eq  then aether stuff?

[Gocubbies1212]

maybe a deck like this for tinkady:

Code: [Select]

592 592 592 593 593 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61r 61s 61s 61t 61t 61t 61t 61v 61v 61v 620 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a

My bad--I searched and searched and totally missed it.  From the deck you posted, would you rather have +1 lobotomizer, -1 pillar?  Or add lobo?

@gocubbies: I have updated tinkady's deck with 2 EQ/3EA as you suggested so hopefully this deck is possible for tinkady.  Am worried about it--2 EQs is not very many.

Not really, I think 12 pillars or pendulums is the minimum for that deck to work properly, I was even thinking of adding one more pend  instead of  a vampire.
I am not worried about that FQ deck too much,  I can steal shields and bonds and deny quanta for queens- they cost 7 quanta, there should not be much of a  problem for me .
I am more afraid of fast life or poison decks, they could be too fast for me so that is why I want to take extra fractal like toimu suggested.

Please post exactly what you want so I can copy it over.

It is the deck on top of this page.
I am testing it now even more vs some life decks so if I want changes I will PM you, but for now I want this one.

Code: [Select]

5um 5um 5um 5um 5uo 5up 5up 5up 5uq 5uq 5ut 5ut 5ut 5ut 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 622 622 622 622 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a 63a

Thanks--this deck might be possible if we can find an alternative to one of our other 4 fractal decks.  (Only 16 fractals left.)  So, I will try to make it happen, but can't promise it at this point.

I agree with -1 vampire--fractal will give you plenty.

Actually now I am thinking that dragoons version might suit me better lol.

Lobos and 2 thunders can stop scorpion  poison rush and FFq rush very easily and those are their 2 winning decks from last round.
Altough I like toimu's deck in theory, I had much better results with dragoons version in practice. So back to my original deck please, if possible - so dont update anything - It is good as it is..
