Fighting Death

[3D House of Beef]

Please post your ideas for combating in this thread. 

Decks that you think would be effective specifically, but feel free to discuss concerns, perceived weaknesses and strengths against their element, cards you think would be effective, and assumptions about how they would choose to face Darkness decks if you were building decks against us.

Death has good poison and CC, Purifies and Holy Light would be useful, though I doubt they're worth having just for this one team.

I suggest against spamming low HP creatures since plague + bone wall really hurts, unless you use immaterial/burrowed creatures.

RE: Purify.  I seem to recall someone... I think plastique actually, beating me with a fast time/death deck that used Precogs to speed up the laying down of poison.  Poison is always something to think about against certain teams that can stall well.  Looking at Essences post on his trials decks for example (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,13019.0.html) you'll seem some very out of the box thinking in regards to clever stall tactics.  None of them poison, but in the context of how he built them, he was facing other 50% water decks that could easily pack purify.  He won't have that limitation in the War.

Just something to think about.

they might go deathstalker poison rush because steal does nothing against nightfall

or bonewall + plague something...again, steal which is our best pc does nothing against bonewalls

my roid rage (water) with some purifys should be fine if its the former and my octane jr. war ed (air) can bypass bonewalls
