How to clip Airs wings https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=63683.msg1251878#msg1251878

For at least 2 rounds we have to play at least 3 matches :air, so at this point just having a general idea what decks they want to use and which they assign to their General won't do. It's either pure luck (with the odds stacked in their favour with both more and stronger options) or we can find a pattern in how they assign decks to their players.

Part 1:
Decks we have that can win at all:
Swallow:Antirush, antistallbreaker(UG,Sofree). We have to fear Wise wyrms here and any deck with at least 4 of SW/OE/lightning and co and 2 wings.
catatitandials: stallbreaker, should beat PC less rushes as well, as well as dom decks w/o PC (mono SW, RT splash). loses to everything with at least 2 PC cards in it, unless its a stall.
overdriven titans: stallbreaker in its purest form. 7-10 ttw, virtually no defense, hard to mitigate dmg from. Might be improved with PU
Chargertal with dims: beats a lot actually, except for the strongest decks of them unfortunately. stallbreaker, beats several rushes and doms. Loses to anything decently quick with 3 PC cards in it, SoFreerush and Ug nymphs. often we can ignore Wings by fractaling the much more efficient damsels, so maybe a guardtal with pulls that fractals damsels instead can win too (completely different set of strengths and weaknesses; is it good enough to warrant its own category or will we never use it?).
RT-splash: beats UG, lots of 50-50 matchups.
Grabbow: gets rekt by Wings, pulvy rarely dodges PC, occasionally SoFo might survive (I think in that case swallow is always better though). Pulvy version can beat UG, dom with vagger might have a chance vs their grabbow
 :death duo: with enough poison can deal decently with wings, I never gave it a chance bc of damsels, but we should test it.
 :darkness dom: Clearly inferior to theirs, it can beat fractalflies and maybe wise wyrms

I am sorry about wrecking Its a trap rather than putting a death duo on the line; It would have been invaluable against all variants of darkdom and usefull against grabbow.

Part 2:
Our most feared decks:
all decks
Darkdom sideboard: http://dek.im/d/z45ocz45ofz55onz15ooz35puz25up5uuz47mtz27tb8pt
Various grabbows, e.g.: http://dek.im/d/z54vjz3590595z35ocz15on61qz174d7dmz47mtz27mu7n58pm
I suppose we should be expecting an UG deck and Wise wyrms and perhaps a mono or a stall (with catatitans gone they are more likely to try to stall)
To be done

Part 3:
Patterns:
To be done

feel free to add to any of these points, i am too tired to continue now, but I intend to constantly update it.

Air fears catatitan no longer, which is bad, and will probably affect their strategy.
I am expecting them to use less darkdoms next round, though they are probably fond of their SW-sideboard, so expect a Soldier to use it.
I think they are going to use one rainbow and give it at least Lt.Ups.
They used 3 counters to swallow (but one of them was up against water and the dark dom is an iffy counter even with 6 SW).
Perhaps I will have more shower thoughts later.
