If you're online atm, we can test it quickly. I'll be on chat for another 30 minutes - 1 hour,

:fire - Coinich should make a verdict here I guess. Rewinds are a good idea, only question is: is it enough to grant us win here?
If Corrum uses the same deck, I'm positive I can beat him.  His Immolations only provide enough fire quanta to play one Phoenix; 7 :fire to be exact.  He will need 7 turns just to be able to play another, and I should be well ahead before he can mount any sizeable force.  Even if he amasses more than two Phoenixes, the Sundials will hold him and any less the Bonewalls will help as well, also discouraging him from using Immolation.  The only worry I have is if he switches decks, which he hasn't done so far.

If you feel confident then lets do it. Now how many bonewalls do you need? I will use 2 most likely so we have 4 left.

I faced Malduk with corrum's deck twice, and I won both times.  Longest matches I've ever played, but I won.  Probably need 4 Bone Walls, and I'm considering adding two Flesh Spiders or Poisons.  Or one of each.  My offense is weak.

Aye, if Corrum uses the same deck, this rewind deck does stand a chance. I didnt have such a great draw, but there's rewinds to blame there too.
I'd rather take 3 Arsenics than Poison. 2 Purifies in the deck will get rid of that easily, while Arsenic reapplies poison. Spider is a decent choice.
Try to play creatures with bone wall behind them. He has Holy Light and Lightning. Nice way to build wall while poison counter is rising :)

Btw, is this vault updated? If we didnt lose Fog Shields, I might go with those instead Dusks as they are cheaper to play, and I might face denial deck.

Though, Icy was mentioning they are making suicide deck against me, and putting all their hopes on one match against forget who (using that :darkness / :aether ) deck.

EDIT:
[22:45:23] Icybraker: ready for our War matchup, Malduk?
[22:45:39] Icybraker: Don't know if we can do it now
[22:45:41] Malduk: nope, not yet icy
[22:46:05] Icybraker: my deck's pretty much suicide :P
[22:46:18] Malduk: i have a deck in mind to use against you, which should work
[22:46:35] Icybraker: i think it'll work, too
[22:46:40] Icybraker: to be frank
[22:46:44] PuppyChow: why would you have the master use the suicide deck?
[22:46:54] Icybraker: I think we'll lose our :death :fire :earth matchups TBH
[22:47:02] Malduk: you guys are quite limited in cards, right?
[22:47:06] Icybraker: well, it's not EXACTLY a suicide deck but it works just like one
[22:47:11] Icybraker: yep, we only have 144
[22:47:16] Malduk: oh, i expect for you guys to use that fractal/darkness deck again :)
[22:47:37] Icybraker: we will have to
[22:47:43] Icybraker: and it's a good deck
[22:48:12] mrblonde: don't worry we have plenty of cards to counter that this time =)
[22:48:21] Icybraker: I know <.<
[22:48:25] Icybraker: But we won't be using it against you
[22:48:34] Icybraker: We're using it against the one team we know we can beat
[22:48:40] Icybraker: But don't take my word for it, I'm an enemy! :P


So, what do you guys think?

I will need to grind another 2 Arsenics, but its possible if I find the right farm.  I can also cut back on Death Pillars as well; I had ridiculous amounts of quanta.

2 Arsenics should work too. I mentioned 3 as he had 2 Deflags in the deck, and you'd prolly want to draw it as early as possible.

Yeah the vault is updated. The only reason dusk would be better is because you could steal his dim shields if he has any. But if you think fog is better by all means. And hopefully aether suicides against us.

Yeah, steals are great there. But if they do field pests, I wont get to use neither Steal nor Dusk.
I'll go over all their decks to see their cards, and maybe build a deck for that 4th element they are facing, so I have better idea what will I be up against.
