Upped Mono-Aether FG grinder

[Higurashi]

Not at all. If we assume SoG is changed to 3 healing for all elements except Life, it would still help. Winrate would go down a bit, but it's no disaster. However, since we don't even know what the change will entail, there's no point in panicking yet (there never is, but yeah).

It looks pretty balanced and fun nice job

I adore this deck. Quick, fun, and it wins. Testin' it, stats will be merged with Combo to get more accurate stats.
Also, this is my quickest win so far, VS scorpio :

I'm really surprised to see such a high winning rate, as to my own experience, this deck, just like the fire lance sudden killer, has the problem of breaking the shield chain. you have like at least 20%-30% of the times won't be able to chain your shield.

thus you're likely to lose to even those on the "easy" list.

the fire lance deck has a total winning rate of around only 20%, I thought this deck should have a similar result.

The unupped version of MA, maybe. This one is beast, probably second or third best farmer. Besides, i don't see how anyone can do something wrong with it... try to be conservative of your shields? I often kept some till i had 15 cards left.

The difference between unupped and upped versions is huge, unupped it's probably like you said. What kind of a list are you running?

I've run with a partial upped deck, with only 2 SOGs, one electro, others un-upped, and I really got bad result. the most common problem is breaking shield chain.

however, as a matter of luck, if you cannot draw your shield in time, it doesn't matter your deck is upped or not, right?

With the SoGs healing you up while you have a shield up, you can often get away with a break in the chain.

Playing more SoGs also allows you to survive a few more turns before you set up a shield when you're up against an FG with no permanent control. If you are facing permanent control, try to bait them out with your Pillars/Pends, then with Lobos/SoGs if necessary -- do everything you can to prevent your Dim Shields from being destroyed/stolen.

Also upped dragons kill a lot faster especially against shields, and every other card in the deck is a +1 mana speed increase. It does add up. Upped Lobo in matchups where you use it a lot is a huge deal too.

As a FG grinder, this deck is rather a beast upped, congrats... now I'm back to earn more kills/win spins/cards/electrums with an easy to play Aether deck, and I never thought I'd be playing Mono Aether!
