Most Hated Deck

[jmdt]

I have had bad luck in PvP against phase shields...

These all apply to the arena.  For pvp, I don't have a 'most hated deck', although since I like control decks, I sometimes get annoyed when I see nothing but rushes.  (which is usually the case :p)  Most rushes take little to no skill to play, and I prefer the more cerebral game of two control decks facing each other off.

1) Cremation rush deck.  With double draw, the primary weakness of this deck, the card disadvantage to play quick creatures, is negated.  I'm just as guilty as anyone else for posting a couple of these in the arena; I had one cremation destroyer rush that was 60-0 before finally losing a game.

2) Supernova decks.  I don't know what it is, but the AI always seems to get 2-3 supernovas in its opening hand and play everything, and when I make these decks, I'll get 0/30 and just sit there discarding    Thus, I hate them on both sides of the table :p  Hate seeing it in arena, and never play it myself due to the dependence on supernova.

3) Anything with Black Hole, especially #2 above.  Black Hole in the early game pretty much reads 'opponent loses their next turn except for attacking', and when your opponent plays one during each of the first six or seven turns of the game... well, even a monodeck has trouble playing anything.  The worst is when you have sanctuary in hand, but get locked out... :p

4) Water/death poison.  My favourite rainbow deck has an innate weakness for this style.  Physalia poison is only an average deck, but it really does a number on my rainbow.  Most of my other arena decks have no trouble with this deck, but they aren't as fun to play.

I've never had issue with firestalls in the arena; I fairly regularly beat those.  It's a good deck, but compared to the above three, it's not that great.

Even tought I find annoying black hole + discord combo, my most hated deck is the dread Ghostmare, because it looks like anything you try to do is unsuccesful (unless you are a firestall) and the double draw of dexterity make it rather effective on hinder your game.

The other one is any poison deck with shard of sacrifice (what sacrifice?) especially rushes, since if you could actually outrush it, chances are that it would shard of sacrifice and end with elemental mastery :/

mono entropy, miracle decks, rush decks, denial, and healing decks.
EDIT: And rainbows

Typical Noob: *cremates a photon and plays a lava destroyer*
Typical Noob: Ahahahaha! Nothing can stop me now!
mesaprotector: *plays Maxwell's demon*

Typical Noob: *play Fire Lance*

thats why i hate any fire deck in the arena
if it got dexterity u cant get any creature or permanent out because its burned down instantly

but what i hate even more are gotp decks.. except if i play a time deck, then i love em xD

Any dec that relies mainly on phase shields.

Ghostmare in the arena. There is no defense. Steals rewinds nightmares.
Dream Catcher look alikes in the Arena. There is no defense. EQ Disc and BH all at once, then it follows up on BHs every turn after that while pulling creatures out of its ***.

Something with sog-quinted-oty-rainoffire-feralbond-sundial-graveyard-phaseshield-miracle with *2 draw. it is really bad.

Way too many of those in the arena. I know how you feel.

Anything with massive control, rushes and rainbows in general, FFQ/Hope, Scarab with bonds, and others I forgot.

and is there any deck you like ? or you hate them all ? The question is the MOST hated deck..

@ furballdn : yep the arena is flooded by those non-fun non creative decks.. I really like to face them when I use mono-gravy though

[dragonsdemesne]

Different people, different tastes, I suppose.  If I'm using a control deck, I love going against another control deck, because it opens up the most decisions and play possibilities.
