The vault seems to be working fine, Pervepic (all the numbers add up correctly). Maybe somebody fixed it?

I was also wondering if we should add in Purifies? In the event we play against Death or Water, both of which could utilize poison (not to mention there are scorpions now). Unfortunately, I can't think of a deck that would use them (except for an almost  mono-air deck with wind pillars and a mark of water + purifies), but this is a very late thought. I only thought of it after playing against the AI3's water+poison deck.

As for some thoughts on the decks, I seem to be having the most wins (against the AI3) with QuantumT's deck and the Darkness-Air duo deck. I think pendulums are just really tricky for me; sometimes I have to wait an extra turn for them to produce the quanta I want before I can play something, which often ends up being my demise.

Yea, there is probably no good room for purifies. And Pendulums are a bit annoying, but overall they should help in diminishing bad draws and making duos ( :air cards can feed other elements, isn't that great). Our element is just such that we have to do many duos; independently  :air is not very strong. Against AI 3 there is no need for a shields and any kind of control; simple rush deck are the best there. But sure QuantumT-s deck is good and  :darkness duos work like a charm  :)

Gyrodiot, feel free to start "Round 1 decks" topic with all the opponents mentioned. Later you could edit this and put decks there, under your first post.
