I prefer the first deck (poison) also we could run with 3 more upgrades on it, uping the last mummy, the bone pillar and finally one of the aether pends

I don't think upgrading an aether pendulum adds much.  How about one of these?  I prefer the all pendula deck since it gives you more :death quanta.  It's hard to test in trainer with the Fractal nerf in place, but I think it's a tad faster now than it will be post-nerf.

Or possibly, an updated flying arsenic deck:

I really like that Fractal Mummy (the one with more pendulums), Boingo.  Fire is going to counter the Flying Arsenic/Poison deck most likely.

Of course, even if we see a Fire Shield, Poisons will take care of any stall they have.  I say go for the first deck.

We should totally do as dissipation field stall.

Stick in a couple fractals, a couple pests, and as many damn pendulums as we can put in.

They will NOT see it coming.

Plus, 36 cards is enough to deck out any deck they may throw at us.
Unfortunately, we do not have a lot of creature cards outside of :death .  But this deck beats AI3--probably could be larger, but I hate drawing pillars for 12 turns with nothing else to play. 

This is if we salvage 2 amethyst pillars, 2 discords, 2 diss shields from Dragoon1140's match, and keep 2 fractals, 2 devourers from ICB's match.  It's a gamble waiting for a devourer and a fractal, but typically you have plenty of quanta to spam devourers once the combo is available. We can add another steal (stealing pillars helps this deck immensely once the shield is up.)

*EDIT:  This deck cannot have a darkness pillar (due to salvage), but otherwise it will work.


Let me formulate a different version with :entropy mark.
i would love this if it were more stable.  maybe a few upped sundials?  tell me exactly what to salvage and what i shouldnt.  very very limited time this round so any last minute changes probably wont be done by me.

the problems with the poison decks is: they know for sure that we have good poison decks.  the DONT know that we have entropy cards from last round.  i think we should use what they dont know we have.

Hmm...

I honestly don't think the dissipation field is stable enough to work. The Fractal mummy looks the best imo, but if we can get it working, they obviously are not going to expect the dissipation field.

At best, this deck idea is something to work on for the next War.  Though it would certainly be unexpected, it's not stable enough to send icb out with it this round. It has a fatal flaw of fractal (wipes out quanta) vs diss shield (needs as much quanta as possible.)  If you don't draw fractal and use it on devourer early, you "waste" large amounts of :aether quanta which makes the shield vulnerable to being wiped out as soon as it's played.  Also, the :fire decks seem to pack ~2 deflags per deck, so the shield could be wiped out as soon as it's played with no benefit to us.  :'( I would love to have made this work.  Maybe next War.

On a separate note, they may think we're out of fractals too, so that may be a surprise too.

I still think we should use the upgraded Mummy + Fractal deck (the second one posted).  They will maybe pack Purifies or heavy pc, so going Fractal will catch them off guard.
