For the pest one, I'd do something like this, since upped pests do very little for the deck:

6th upgrade whatever, probably a drain life.

That makes sense, I was thinking to make them less susceptible to CC, but I can see how having more offense on the gravy side would probably be stronger.

I've never seen anything remotely like this next idea, so I don't know how it will perform.  I think I'll actually try this out in pvp1/2 and see how it goes.  When trashduke mentioned chimera it came to mind somehow, because I was trying to imagine what use it would be.

Armagios to absorb damage in the early game, dragons to provide it later, both of which are extremely hard to kill.  Opponent will probably race damage slightly faster, since those creatures are more focused on hp.  Then.... suddenly an enormously fat chimera with like 100hp that absorbs a ton of creature damage while still dishing it out.  Even at 15 quanta it might be a little light, though; I'm not sure.  Also, 100% pure monogravity ftw.

Here's my latest build of catatitans.

It's been doing well in tests (vs. old aether decks); it doesn't suffer from the quanta strain that the time mark had, but you can still get out a bunch of flying Titans (for some nice damage) w/o needing the nova first (this was what seemed to clog my hand when I tried the unupped flying weapons).  The sundials and freeze are still dependent on the novas, but they aren't essential to the deck working (flying weapons can clear a titan-heavy draw and 33 damage from a pulted titan is still pretty good).

Cool idea. It's mildly similar to Akebono, but a lot more focused; do let us know how the testing goes.

I don't know if it's worth it (I couldn't convince team entropy in war 5) but holy light might be a good pick.  We are fairly confident it will work against teams death/darkness, and we can use it upgraded to put in literally any deck.

This is a really good idea; darkness usually kicks our butt so it would be nice to have something with some hard CC. I have to run to work, but here's an initial stab at the idea (haven't tested at all).  Probably too short on damage, so maybe more chargers?  The novas are to lessen the effect of devourers, but I'm also working on a duo with light that could pull in sanctuary.

edit: yeah, the build below sucks pretty badly (even after a few tests, I can tell it won't cut it).  I'll try to revise it later today.

Here are two stalls from previous wars that looked interesting; actually looking back, Dragon's deck looks a bit stronger than this.

This is a neat idea though; I'll do some testing.  Actually Captain played this last year, so maybe he can let us know what he thought of it.....

Here's a war 8 variation of a nom-wall; one of the few decks that's done well against Darkness in the past 3 wars.  Working on how to fit holy light into it... so far, it's tough.
