Decks

[Malduk]

Perfect, Team Wateris now out of the competition so i guess we get a buy and don't have to worry about making a suicide deck now. We are still a little short on pillars though but at least it is manageable now.

Actually, and will be reseeded. So we'll get a new opponent. I'd love to see complete reseed of the whole round though. Makes no sense that round 3 was seeded before round 2 was done.

Nah, I guess there was a miscommunication.  An unupped Arsenic would compliment it perfectly.

EDIT:  Ha.  Ha ha.  Hahahahahahahahah!  Just spun one from a farm.  That, and another Pulvy.

[Malduk]

Well, and got reseeded. Hooray for us, we got our 4th master to fight - Terroking.

So round 3 looks like this for us: 4 masters ( , , , ), and 2 guys from "top" teams atm: implosion , and corrum .

I guess random noise doesnt like us much.

[coinich]

This is gonna be a tough round.

[MrBlonde]

oh... ugh... this round is ridiculous. How we split this up i'm not even sure. I'm even tempted to say we should suicide 2 rounds and try to do what we can to get 4 wins. What do you guys think? Remember we only have 44 pillars and making bigger decks isn't necessarily worse because then we can salvage key cards we need.

[Malduk]

Yeah I was thinking the same. We should do our best to make bigger, but viable decks to be able to keep cards.

Totally agree. With only 44 pillars we're going to have some trouble making decks. The loss with the deck that used 16(or however many it was) really really hurt. I think a lot of teams will be out after next round, so as long as we make 4 strong decks and 2 not-so-strong ones (should make the not-so-good decks for the better/harder masters/elements) to try to do our best to get 4 solid wins.

[MrBlonde]

Alright since we're pretty much agreed on this i guess we should determine what matchups are the worse. I guess we can assume that we suicide against Earth. Kinda sucks to do since they are undefeated and they have had enough freebies but it's just exponentially worse against Terroking and him being a Master. So we need to choose one more between these players. Ironically the Master matchups may be easier then the non-Master ones.

Xdude (Master-light) - Look at my deck again. I salvaged life cards from my deck to specifically counter Light here. We can still change those cards to death pillars. If light goes stall i don't see how this deck doesn't win with the amount of healing/emerald shield for reflect/afla to fill up my field for bonds or even to fill up his field to block.

IcyBraker (Master-aether) - We obviously got countered here last deck. Maybe go back to the darkness deck with poisons.

Mini-Wally (Mater-darkness) - Mono-dark with plagues and poison isn't bad here either.

Corrum (fire) - Tough matchup. Not sure what to think.

Forget this guys name (light) - We don't have enough cards to use another stall deck and i think mine works better since i can fly my arsenics and not have to worry about using poisons.

[Malduk]

It is quite possible will go with stall deck. Xdude is the only one with a clear option to rush having 6 upped cards. They also have at least 3 Purifies.
First round they went with 36 cards, second with 38-39. It is hard to deckout them, and if we go with huge decks, we're vulnerable to rushes.
It is possible afla - bond could work if they go stall though. And Emerald shield would do great job protecting against Ice Lance.
Can I see the code of the deck you plan using?

has problems with vault. They are low on pillars. It is quite possible they will make similar deck they used the last match. I'll try to build  something tomorrow morning.

can use the same deck as . Which is bad for us  We practically have double opponents this round, and on top of it - Masters.

- Coinich should make a verdict here I guess. Rewinds are a good idea, only question is: is it enough to grant us win here?

[MrBlonde]

Here's the deck code Malduk. This is a 40 card deck so we will survive a deckout. Beating a rush deck isn't completely out of the question but i would need to pull bone walls early + get a few bonds out with creatures. Honestly purifies don't really bother me either because this deck is to counter a deckout. Basically if i get this setup they won't win. The 6 arsenics and 6 animates are basically just so i can get enough creatures out without sacrificing precious cards.

52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 52q 52r 52s 52s 52t 52t 52t 5bs 5bs 5bs 5bs 5c4 5c4 5c5 5c6 5c6 5c6 5c6 71b 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2 7n2

Seems solid on first look. Remember Holy Flash. I have no idea, but I think you should test if Holy Flash kills Cells. First Cell is obviously a problem

Hmmm didn't think about that. I do need to figure that out.
