Higurashi 2 - scauduro221095

Whew. Wasn't sure I could pull that off. Blitz was my only real chance, and I'm very pleased with my deck.

Seeing him playing Stone and Aether pillars with Time Mark, I feared he'd bring Earthquakes and Grabbys. Luckily, only the latter came true.
I got some Azure Dragons out to whittle down his HP until he played an Auburn Nymph and PU'd it. Surprising.
I struck one with Lightning and Blitzed my Dragons so he'd end up at 10 HP left. He delayed one Dragon with the Nymph. The other one hit, leaving him at 1 HP, and that's where the Dim Shield chain began for both of us.
I knew I had two Lightnings, so I waited patiently for the next one. I had started my Dim chain late so it wouldn't run out.

He brought Mindgates this time which would've been a great choice if I hadn't made sure to only bring Aether pends as quanta sources. This time I got my Sky Dragons and PU'd them. I knew he'd PU them as well, but I only needed to do a little damage. I waited until I was at 35 HP before starting Dim chain so that he wouldn't be able to Mindgate too many Lightnings to kill me with. Eventually I'd deck him out since I brought 31 cards to his 30, but instead his Dim chain ended (since he started it way too early) and I Blitzed 4 Sky Dragons for 104 damage on his 87 HP.
I thank you for two very exciting games, scauduro. 

Sorry if anyone wanted to use Aether next round, but I have to take my chance to actually fight in this, too. :>

Hurray Marisa! By the Fire vested in me... I giveth thee 6x Minor Phoenix!

what editing story are you referring to jangoo?
care to elaborate?

did you just look at that post by 10 men and decided to post your opinion or did you actually read the whole thread leading to that post first?

please, enlighten me on this obscure "editing"-story that you're talking about

Lol, no offense intended Kobis. I thought I did read the whole thing ... and still didn't get it apparently, now I do:

My teammate posted the wrong deck, got "you're illegaled" for it, changed the post to the deck he actually used and
then it was fine, however people kept referring to the edit ...?
Whatever, I was a bit in a rush and didn't care to read again, hence:

"Obscure" editing-story.     ... No, wait, I meant: "Obscure" "editing" "story" ... there we go.

Double post ... match results coming in soon .

Seraph 2 - 0  willng3

He only had 1 aide, pretty much all he got from his aide was CC (shockwave), flying weapon, and wings, and potentially creatures.

Either way his rush was slower than mine

Match 1

Match 1: he draws no shockwaves, 1 late dragon
Match 2: he draws like 5 shockwaves, but I also draw 5 deja vus , He gets a staff, as do I. I power through him, although he manages to get out two upgraded emerald dragons and damage me to about 1/4 health

I've been farming recently, and now, well let me just say that I will have enough upgrades for the rest of the event

Funny.  This deck isn't even close to being a rush x)

Same deck both times.  With him asking in chat about whether or not Cockatrice where airborne it was pretty obvious that he was preparing for Wings so I didn't bother with them.  Instead I figured I would just shoot down everything he threw at me.  First game I saw a mark and was pretty sure I was going to face Adrena Deja Vu or something with Rewinds; either deck wouldn't affect me here.  ...Or so I thought.  First game managed to draw a grand total of 0 Shockwaves and instead had to stare angrily at Jade Dragons the entire game and the second he managed to play a Deja Vu for every Shockwave I drew, so it was pretty pointless in the end.  On hindsight I should have taken Jade Shields; probably should have taken my opponent more seriously this time.

TStar 2 - Jangoo 1

After TStar had me baking in front of his house for roughly 2 hours,
he finally had his clothes on, came out, and was ready for battle.

Damn turn2 Pulvy kicked the crap outa my entire pillar-fleet.
The few Titans that made it out couldn't make up for the damage already inflicted.

Kicked out the perms I had really quick and got me some more pillars. A fierce demonstration of a shockwave and
a pretty early Oty kept the grab(s) down while the chargers ground away. Win

I'm still coming with that old-school gangster shit no matter how many say we ain't the shit ... (Ice Cube)
Grav + Air = Flying Titans, no question. I was not going to leave this match-up without seeing this deck win at least once, and did: Perfect Pillar-draw, early overdrives ... the bomb. Too bad it was a desync.

Second try ended like this:
I thought I had him bagged by switching over grav.pulls between Titans when he finally blasted my pulled Titan
and came up with a heal to barely escape the Titanic 14dmg.     .... intense.
