Strategies for Round 1

cubbies ive been working on a possible deck u could use vs essence im thinking hell go with a / its a risk but it might work

Since we don´t have many cards from other elements the best I could think of is this.
If someone has better idea how to stop time deck with perma control and some eternities and probably procrastination ( with our Vault cards ofc)  please let me know.

I think those two are great for you, just think about taking 30+ cards to counter a stall.  Throw in some Lightnings for CC.

Just an idea.

what would go well against ?
the best counter for i can think of would be unstable gases. which would mean i could take some deflags. but i dont wanna waste the deflags on a random guess. anything good ideas?

They might go Wings + Eagle's Eye and some creatures so PC to stop an Stall would be nice.  Or Unstable Gas + Fire Shield so Emerald Shield + Heals would be nice.  Or about 100 other options

Add some Purifies.

mrpaper is going up vs also.

Dragoon and Boingo are both facing .  Part of me wants to say use to Steal their Fire Shield, but a RoF would crush those decks.  Maybe our decks for the Deflagrations?  Or Mono- stall and just run threw their shields PU'ing and Lightning all the way? 

artagas and ICB are facing .  From last War, they used 2-4 Miracles in all but 4 of their decks between the 7 rounds!  I say ICB goes Frogtal, he might be able to out damage their heals, or at least the Heals will keep ICB in the fight long enough to kill them.  artagas might try a Fratcal deck for Healing and Quantum Denial.

Wish I would have looked harder at a way to pack 14-15 Pillars/Pendulums each now!  All the deck ideas I'm coming up with call for 12-15, but we only have 13.3 each.

[Boingo]

Just post your decks here.  I have to post the "official decks" in the "official thread" as far as I can tell (or maybe we get another penalty?)  This is a great suggestion/tweak area though.

[artagas]

hi!
Sorry for being quiet for so long, i have been reading everything you guys posted, just had not a lot of good ideas of my own.
Anyhow. My first villain is light. I think they will have little tools to counter shields (a fire-light deck needs mark of earth and if i understand correctly they cant use that so i dont expect deflags). So how about a 6-shield stall deck. With phase dragons maybe?

Edit: ok i was wrong. i somehow thought everybody is supposed to use his team's mark. well if not they can obviously come with some sort of fire-light rush deck. Maybe then what Boingu has suggested is the best thing  though i would still add 2-3 DS just in case they dont have anything to counter it, I will think it over.

Gz on your tournament win Dragoon.
You could share a deck or two with your war mates , I know I wouldn´t mind .

I would just like to know can graboid rush can be countered with CC deck or are they just too fast ?
Sry for offtopic but I don´t know where to post this. I think that  we should have one topic just for non war chat and everything else.

Assuming they go with a Graboid + EQ rush, you are best off going the classic 6 PA, 6 DS, 6 PD, and a mixture of Pillars / Pendulums, using some PA's on the pillar / pend stacks.

LOL I was talking about the tournament, NWM it was a joke anyway  .

Oh, hehe.  My bad.   

Off topic though, let's get back on topic.

[tinkady]

how about this?

also should i take out one of the shields? seems like a bit much

[thraexis11]

Hm why would you take frogs without fractals ?
