My poison deck:


MARK IS WATER

It generally does very well in pvp, but against T50 speed poison (SG's version) is faster; this relies on being able to put a congeal lock on your opponent. Rainbow decks will usually inevitably get around it (if you don't win first >_>), and with the quantum tower glitch they could get an otyugh or ulitharid or such out before you get an octopus out. That's the purpose of the congeal; to give you a small chance of drawing it and being able to play an octopus without it getting eaten/destroyed.

The shard of gratitude could (and probably should) be replaced by another arsenic. I just don't have another arsenic upgraded, so for asthetic purposes I went with the shard. And the shard HAS saved my life before.

Against speed poison decks, this deck generally has just as good of a shot (maybe even better) than the speed poison, especially if you get an arsenic at around the same time they do.

I like that deck, lol. Usually though, when there is a Poison mirror, whoever gets the Arsenic out sooner usually has the best chance of winner. First turn Arsenic (which I absolutely LOVE to do) pretty much guarantees a win unless the opposing player does the same thing, or gets a lot of poison out quickly (three or so Deadly Poisons in starting hand or first couple draws).

That's why I recommended to replace the SoG with another arsenic :P. And I've won against speed poisons when they played the arsenic three turns before me, simply because I was able to congeal the physalias.

does anybody have an accurate decklist for efhero's t50 speed poison? that thing is insanely fast. i usually lose the poison mirror to it.

it uses water mark and mixes bone towers and sapphire towers. it runs the standard deadly poison, physalia, congeal, arsenic, but it also has squids. i would be interested in seeing if squids replaced some congeals, or what. i think it is still only 30 cards.
I've got an accurate decklist (well 29/30 cards) for efhero, but I don't know if he/she'd want me to post it.  ???
Lol. Oh please.. we are not talking about state secrets here. It's exactly like other poison decks, only with Sapphire Towers and Squids.

Omg, the secret is out!

CB!

Uhm, ok then.  Here's efhero's deck:

8x Bone Tower
6x Saphire Tower
6x Deadly Poison
6x Physalia
2x Arctic Octopus
2x Arsenic (I'm 100% certain there's 1 Arsenic, and 99% sure there's 2) :)

Mark: Water
