Fractix and bonebolt are two powerful decks from :aether too.

Yeah, I can pretty much tell you exactly what Higs will have in her vault. However, with more upgrades available this war, she will probably have a couple surprises. When I get time, I will post what decks I believe she will have.

Long story short, :aether doesn't have a deck that is overtly dominant against :fire. We tried to "mindgate" :fire for most of last war, but it was pure speculation. Honestly, the best strategy against :aether is to be unpredictable.

Lieutenant would be very nice, but im also fine with every role, you want me in, also soldier. my main focus will be on deckbuilding and finetuneing. i would like to have everyone involved in that, and exspecially metagame (which deck theyll possibly use) should be a focus of us all.
I recommend having separate topics for each team. Within each topic, include the decks from each round and split them into winning and losing decks. That's probably the easiest way to do it. It's best to update each team as the duels occur so that it isn't a huge burden on any 1 person.

update now complete , new useage of this topic




i think against us, we will often see poison(along with bonewalls), and also many discords.

Probably we will see quite a few cards with lobotomizing effects used against us also.

i tested a bit with 1.29, and if it arises during war, immophoenix-decks are really weakened.

still, we have to find a good mixture between rush-decks (graboidrush, immophoenix, immogolem, ...), bolt-decks (sanctuary-bolt, poison-bolt, sundial-bolt?, ...), lock decks (i like shield-locks, maybe not easy to prepare, against us), and some really unexspectable decks, like antimatter-phoenix, adrenaline-eaters, etc.

Gravy firemaster + momentum + rage pots is a fun deck which i find quite effective, since the rps have a double purpose: strong cc, or final kicks for the firemasters to win the match.

That was the deck I wanted to use against Death's blasted Earth Stall!

a few holy lights in rainbows against death+darkness would be nice too, you can heal for 10 or remove enemy creatures, should be nice.

I think they have 0 cost upgraded, so they could be used in non-rainbow decks as well.
