Subject: [ROUND 1] Deckbuilder Task

Team in a Deck Build a deck with one and only one creature per team member representing each team member. Explain, shortly, why each team member is the selected creature. The deck should be viable versus AI4. Special Rules: Decks must be playable in-game. Voters will be highly encouraged to take originality and potential winnability into consideration.

Death Dost Dominate Hover over cards for details, click for permalink Deck import code : [Select] 52o 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6qq 6u2 71a 71b 71b 71b 71e 74a 7ao 7do 7gl 7jv 7n1 7q2 7qd 7t7 7ta 7ta 7tf 7um 7um 7um 7um 7um 8pk Boss: rob77dp The Master of Death is clearly a death creature. It's Deathstalker because Poison dominates and ties the team together. Artist: VevoGold VevoGold is from a Golden Nymph as their Avatar, so a time creature. Dune Scorpion to give the Poison theme tie-in. Card Designer: Rutarete He is a Gargoyle from the very first second. Look at his Avatar. It's a Gargoyle. Deckbuilder: Odii Odsen Clearly a Darkness creature for the Master of Darkness. I'm in Team Death Dost Dominate? So here you get your poisoning - Bloodsucker. Forum Expert: the dictator He is a water creature because he likes water. Physalia provides the Poison connection. We are so touched by this poison. Offtopicker: timetock This guy is a fate egg. Why? He likes time and his head looks like an egg. Writer: dawn to dusk This dude is loving life, so add some poison and he becomes a Scorpion. The idea is "death-poison" relating to our team (name) plus all creatures are from elements each team member likes. Proof of beating Ai4: Spoiler for Screenshots:

An Awesome Team Write a short summary as to why your team, and everyone on it, is awesome.

All right, Death Dost Dominate is awesome, that is plain to see, but just in case you are blind enough to miss it, let me point it out: First of all, we have the most bad-ass teamname: Ferns merely tickle, Divine Light is cliché and Cuckoo's don't even build nests. Whispers in the Dark at least sounds like a horror movie, but one that doesn't even give 12-year-olds nightmares. Death Dost Dominate, on the other hand, is truthful, intimidating, but most of all, ominous. Now that that it is settled, let's move on to the team members: First of all, we have the only master who wanted to be a brawl boss, rob77dp, as OUR brawl boss. We (or, well, rob) even managed to grab himself a SECOND boss on the team: Our deckbuilder Odii Odsen, the current Master of Darkness and leader of the Championship League. Not only do we have someone dominating the PvP scene, we also have the majority of all the participating masters in OUR team. Moving on: We have Rutarete, who not only likes Metal (and everyone knows death and metal strengthen each other), but also has some great card designer skills. In fact, he has more posts in the just the CIA board than all but 100 members have on the whole forum, AND the 7th highest postcount of the whole forum. Then there is dawn to dusk a CO, in a forum event that basically consists of a lot of seperate competitions. He also has some great original deckbuilding skills as well, so original the decks aren't even possible in the game yet (but you can see them in openEtG). Next up is timetock who is much awesome, very wow, and he (supposedly) knows everything about anything (like a good off-topicker should). Next up is the dictator, long lost, recently returned veteran (another metal fan). And finally VevoGold, new, unknown, mysterious (and just as ominous as our teamname). If you still don't see it, try increasing the size and/or contrast of your monitor (or see an optometrist)!

Reverete mortui - Respect the dead. 3. Carpe diem - first you must live today. 4. Memento mori - it is your destiny to die. 5. Morituri te Salutant - to die is to honor the living. 6.

Notes Commandment 1 instructs followers to treat others as you desire to be treated (which is inclusive of many ancient commandments). Commandment 2 follows from the fact that ones ancestors become minor dieties, of course you should respect those. Commandment 3 instructs followers to enjoy today by living it to the full leading in to #4. Commandment 4 instructs followers to be mindful that death will come one day to all. Commandment 5 instructs followers to remember life and death are of symbiotic relation, without life there cannot be death and without death there will be excess of life.

I have taken the original from td and edited in some revision in my post above for Forum Expert Task.

Edit:  td has now edited his post into a "final" version...
