[R3] Final Stand Deck + Salvage

[MrBlonde]

it really seems crazy that they would go RoL/Hope though. Bah. I would rather not have plagues at all but we can't just take that chance

[ralouf]

Yeah i agree that they aren't very likely to take RoL Hope, specially because they have stuff to build a rainbow deck with their salvage iirc.
Still it'd be too baaad too loose vs a RoL hope deck with plague in our vault..

[RootRanger]

Light doesn't know we have Plagues. Since two cards are te difference between winning and losing against one of Light's 2-3 main decks, let's keep them.

Recluses are probably a good idea, but with two Fractals, we need a lot of quanta.

Poisons are not very card-efficient in a long term battle, which is probably the case. I would try to limit them in order to have enough quanta.

but if they are all upped with added early hits from arsenic, its hard for them to sanc/miracle past them.

Also light could know we have plagues, we won with our earth stall deck and never played it again so for all they know we could bring that

Final battle will be on Wednesday 2200 GMT. I am still contemplating whether i should have Jay play the final match. I think it would be pretty cool to have a brother vs brother matchup for the finale. Anyhow Jay chime in with your thoughts.

[jippy99]

I second that thought.  I think it would be overly cool to have a brother vs brother finale and I know that majofa wants it too.  As for our deck, we need more than one dragon or attacker and probably more than one fractal.  I would think that light will go with a relatively big deck here, so adding a few extra cards doesn't necessarily hurt us in this case.  Dims are a great idea and should work well.

[Jaymanfu]

It would be pretty fun and epic, but its just been fun playing on this team and I am glad that I was chosen to be on it You've been on death all these times and if we are to get first place it should be you who gets to have that glory


As for the deck, people should post some builds that they think are good, then we'll have a few choices to look at to pick the best one.

This is what I would build:

Bigger can't hurt us here.
Look here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,34710.msg468398#msg468398) for what I'm building off of.
If anyone wants to talk about it, I am able to in a couple of minutes.

This deck looks solid and good but I only have one issue with it : if they go for a rush deck if you don't draw enough shield you'll quickly loose..
question : can they come with a rush ? have they enough card to make a rush deck ?

Then only 16 pillar in a 37 cards deck are really enough ? I don't know.. I gonna try it

[ralouf]

Actually I really like it even if most the time my opponent is dead before I play fractal but as they are likely to run sanc + miracle those fractal will help.

In 2 games I didn't had enough aether quanta to chain dim shield though. Still every single card looks really needed. maybe we can take out 1 poison for 1 pend ? up to you guys

[jippy99]

It is extremely unlikely that they rush and I don't know if they can build one.  Swapping a poison for a pend won't hurt here.  I think this is basically the best deck we can build and we should just hope for the best.

[ralouf]

Yep our deck seems OP I don't think thay have any solution against this. just pry the RNG to bless MrBlonde.
We are all with you Blondey, go win this war !
