Fighting Fire

[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.

Between rain of fire and immolation our quanta denial strategy with devourers is rendered near useless.  Since Darkness has very little CC I'd expect some sort of creature rush from Fire.  Golems and Phoenix are problematic unless you've got something like antimatter, freeze, basilisk blood or reverse time to deal with them.  Their graboid rainbow with Rage Pots is one of the best decks in the entire war.

Fire is likely to bring 2-4 deflag so we're better off either bringing no permanents or going overkill and bringing multiple copies.  I think an Entropy/Darkness combo or our own graboid rainbow is our best bet against Fire.

Some of Fire's best decks in the last war:

only General (and now maybe Lt. too) can pull off fractal+MP against us
i doubt they will use dim.shield against us so that leaves (from the list above) graboid rainbow and poison/bolt

i have nothing right now

[TheCrazyMango]

if they use fire shield(which i doubt) we should use a gravity/darkness deck with voodoo, grav pull, and momentum. its a little late to post this but i just thought of it

[kobisjeruk]

you still have a long way ahead of ya
for now just make yourself familiar with decks suggested earlier
