No, just if you lose you discard 5 Bone Walls and something else. Next time you'll have 6 Bone walls again.

After testing with Dogg this one (without Arsenic though) seemed to work best:

Code: [Select]
52q 52r 52r 52r 52r 52r 52r 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5ol 5ol 5ol 5ol 5ol 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu
Some Pillars instead of Pendulums are quite necessary there, but hopefully it is still working this way too. Maybe it is still good too have 31 cards (Arsenic?).

I'll probably go with this one:

Code: [Select]
5of 5of 5og 5ol 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5ul 5ul 5ul 5um 5um 5um 5up 5up 5up 7ta 7td 7td 7td 7td 7td

Things I notice about my deck, its slow to start out and get that initial bit of light quanta, but after I have that and typically hope, I destroy

Well shoot. I had an idea for a deck that I thought would work pretty well against gravity but we only have one wind pillar...

Oh well.

My concern with the entropy deck is that I don't have anything to do against otyugh. So I just have to hope that they don't bring any because of all our CC.

Hah, don't worry about Oty, they won't expect you to play Damselfly  :) But again, some heavyarmored Oty is possible too, but i don't know, still somehow unprobable.

Well technically the rules say that we can convert 12 cards per round, and this is technically a round. Perhaps we can convert some pendulums into pillars?  :)

One thing about Darkness; I'll be interested to see how they divide 24 Devourers among 9 decks. It probably wouldn't be the best idea to divide them evenly (about 3 Devourers/Pests per deck). I can't think of a Darkness deck without Devourers, though, so we'll see what they play.

Also, we don't have to worry too much about not having enough of certain cards right now; we should be getting at least 12 from propaganda (so more Miracles or whatever else we need [oddly enough I was thinking Novas would be good for the future]).

Yea :) We can win also 3 cards (3 Miracles!) if we beat someone 2-0 in this round.
 
I just noticed that our Phase Shieds deck uses some Pillars too, so no Phase Shields this time; I think that Fractal-Spiders or deck nr 8 would work there too.

Well there isn't really much to gain by keeping it secret from you guys, here's what I was thinking.

Code: [Select]
5f6 5f6 5f6 5f6 5f6 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oi 5oi 5oi 5ol 5ol 5ol 5ol 5om 5om 5om 5om 5om 5p0 (Note: not really  sure which cards I would take upgraded. The OE to EE for more damage or Deflags to Explosions it seems to me.

What I like about this is that most gravity decks seem like they will be slow enough to allow this to get established, wipe out all of the creatures via OE, and finish with the UG. Just an idea anyway.

Note: The nymph could just as easily be another UG, and that might be more appropriate for this matchup, given the low HP of the nymph.

Another thing I just thought of. This is probably reading too much into this, but kartis (napalm grenade on team gravity) is a good friend of mine and knows that I have access to an air nymph. If she expects me to use it this round then this is probably the deck she would expect me to use.

Just sayin'

Yea, we can probably have something like this later. Seems a bit slow, but Gravity is slow too. Now decks are basically ready, if there are no objections. I think that Fractal-Spiders could work fine against  :life.

And Truddy, if you really want deck 8 instead of Glories, then take it. I'm not supposed to be a dictator here.

Istari, could you play Flying Titan's deck too? Proabably you need to replace Tomatoman.

Is anyone gonna be using the single wind tower in this round? If not, i'd like to add that as the 31st card to the modified OE deck.

Sure. This one works fine against AI 3 too:

Code: [Select]
52r 52r 52r 52r 52r 52r 5oc 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5oi 5ol 5ol 5ol 5ol 5ol 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu 5pu
I just noticed that there are less deckouts with this Arsenic, but if you don't want it, replace it with the Pendulum.

Edit:I took out this Arsenic now and put a Pendulum back.
