[Nume]

You posted my match twice and skipped the jmdt  home_wreckaz match .

[xuru]

Thanks, repaired:)

This round... oh you know... 

[MrBlonde]

This... is... a... nightmare. Still at work right now so this will be a quick post.

Time i think no longer has fractal/scarabs so at least we don't have to worry about that.

Earth is going to be a tough matchup. They most likely are going to use a big deck with stall here. Makes the most sense since they will still be alive even if they lose. So make a bigger deck and you can save 10+ cards of your choice for the next round at worst.

Gravity, we know GG will use their best deck here.

Light, rush deck for sure. Blessed pegasi with momentum wouldn't surprise me. The time/RT deck wouldn't be a horrible choice here IMO.

[Nume]

Yeah I would say theres a decent chance earth uses some type of large earth/life stall with heals, stone skins, and thorn carapiece's. They lost at least some of their titanium shields, so thats not too likely, though they still could've held on to some. They have at least the 6 ss, 3 heals, and  3 thorn carapiece from their last round wins though.

[Malduk]

I've been testing with Xuru and Nume against this deck:

Code: [Select]

55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 576 576 576 576 576 5og 5og 5oi 5oi 5ol 5ol 5ol 5on 5on 5on 5on 5pu 5pu 745 745 745 745 745 745
First I tried Poisoning with control. Pots and Deflags - meh. Discord and AM - meh. Basically those chargers deal 42 unstoppable damage even if I kill them all as they are placed on the field. I dont see a good way to stall those enough for poison to do the trick (reliably).
I'm thinking I'll have to outrush them, but really not sure how yet. Lightnings + Death rush could work, but then there's OE issue, and the fact that I'd hog death cards. I havent tried grabbies, but I'm also not sure those will do the trick with the amount of CC they have.

Anyway, Gravity has access to 5 decent decks here:
- Adrenalined scorpios and mercenaries - meh deck
- Dim shield, lightnings, titan, chargers - dangerous deck. Same thing as posted above but with less CC, moar shields. This could be used against Air though
- The deck above.
- Discord/AM deck. I doubt they have Black Holes left in the vault, and I wouldnt use it against Death anyway.
- Bonewall/Arsenic deck - they can salvage 5 bonewalls and 2 arsenics. Do they have brains to field death stall against death? Doubt it. It would work great when combined with Elite Chargers though. It would be REALLY hard to outrace them with 5 Bonewalls.

Anyway, its 4AM here, and my brain stopped working. I'll think more about this tomorrow. If anyone has ideas, I'm all ears.

[Malduk]

On another note, we'll be short on pillars/pendulums, as well on some cards like Mummies, and I think we wont even have Arsenics for 9 decks. We might consider suiciding one deck.

[MrBlonde]

I pretty much figured we would have to suicide at least 1 deck.

[xuru]

we can use suicide deck against time. Maybe we will be lucky end they will forfeit their game because of using suicide deck against us. It would be EPIC!:D

They have to use one suicide deck, we know it for sure. Their 3rd game is against light.

I can go with suicide deck. I want to be like chuck norris and win even with suicide deck.

[Nume]

Heh that'd only be possible if we make the suicide deck legal though, right? I suppose we should have enough death cards to do that if thats what we want, just including no pillars/pendulums .

[Shantu]

What a goddamn crappy round. GAH. 

[MrBlonde]

What a goddamn crappy round. GAH.

Uber crappy. Oh well, it is what it is so i guess we just need to try to setup decks as well as possible. Anyhow here are a quick couple ideas.

My matchup vs Xdude. If they use stall they win, if they go rush we should win. My guess is that Xdude will rush but he may do the he knows that i know and use a stall figuring i would counter a rush. If we need to take out an arsenic i can replace it with a spider.

Code: [Select]

52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52h 52o 52o 52o 52o 52o 52o 52q 52q 52q 5rk 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 713 713 7q4 7q4 7q4 7q4
Earth... I need to look at earth's stall deck but i'm thinking we could also try to stall and go with a bigger deck and hope for the deckout. Go 46 cards and go 50/50. That way even if we lose we can salvage 16 or 23 death cards. Risky but it might work out.

Aether or Air i think we should use the life deck with heals/carapace. I'm thinking aether will expect that though. Depending on who aether is facing though that may be the best deck against them. Fractal vs air might work.

EQ deck will be played somewhere here but not sure where. It could work vs fire but if we choose it against an immo deck it automatically loses. Losing the EQ's would hurt alot as well. Time will be expecting an EQ deck but it really should still work.


Other matchups i really don't have an idea right now. Gonna spend some time tomorrow figuring this out but i'm thinking suiciding 2 decks may be the right thing to do.
