Oracle : Dark Matter

[TheForbiddenOracle]

Why would you have a FFQ when Dark Matter has Otyughs?

[Higurashi]

Force of habit, I'd guess. He mentions it might be worth taking out, after all. I wouldn't take out the Fractal though; I tend to have a lot of even without FFQ, and if draws are bad a Fractal can save my ass on the offensive front.

[Xenocidius]

Hmm ... with no usage, it could be worth Fractalling one of his creatures, I suppose ...

[Higurashi]

Yep, Chargers are a good Fractal target, especially if he doesn't have an Unstoppable Oty out.

The mono aether deck works great, too bad I had almost no quanta production whatsoever 
2 pillars on the first.. dunno.. 7 turns, then I lost. I'm not touching Elements till tomorrow now.

^Above deck works fairly well (used a mostly upgraded version). I won with half my HP even with my three Electrocutors in the bottom half of the deck.

I believe a variation of this deck would be a good counter to DM. Titans get past Gravity Pull, but that's not all. DM uses Gravity Pull on your Armagios and animated Titans for you. That's right, it blocks out its own damage. SoGs heal damage inflicted by momentumed creatures. You can let a Titan take damage for a while, then lure it away with Armagio.

Plus, it's a mono (by my definition) deck, which means BHs have little effect.

Tried the OP deck half upped. Lost because I drew one shield in 18 cards. looks very good though

[ralouf]

So this time I won. It'd have been an EM if he didn't play a fackin' charger the turn I killed him.

As others have noted, it seems that some sanctuaries would help big time against Dark Matter. Tested it, and it doesn't seem to be the case.

First, I ran this:

The deck with sanctuaries only managed four wins in 10 games.

Started playing the SoG deck and it won the first five games straight.

Probably because your deck isn't built to handle sanctuaries. 4/32 copies, and then considering the costs, you usually aren't going to get it out quickly enough.
