Good work Gumbeh. Will you finish to normalization or will you take a break? (ie. should I find someone to finish testing to normalization?) Stats for VVV look very nice, somewhat unexpected.

Rainbow Decks / Re: Hourglass 1 and only!! (voodoo deck)
« on: July 22, 2011, 06:09:32 pm »The main argument for a 3rd doll without a 3rd gpull is not to be able to more consistently play the combo. The addition of an extra one without the other makes little sense. The issue with adding an extra doll is that often times your deck will get clogged before drawing a doll. This will force you to discard at times until you have drawn a doll. I don't find it to happen often enough to need a 3rd doll & when it does, I rarely find this situation to be gamebreaking, but some people really prefer to be able to dump a doll into play as soon as possible, thus, gaining the additional benefit of earlier weapon petrification.
If you think 3 voodoos are needed for the case of doll-draw, why not 3 grav pulls?
Also, the cloak only makes chaos lord harder. One strategy to use is to use the BB's on the fallen elves so he only has his improved mutations to mess with your voodoo dolls. And you could also try TU'ing one of his large mutant creatures and killing him that way, while keeping one voodoo BB'd and GP'd for some protection, and you might even get some useful abilities.I am not going to argue for cloak over nightmare or another doll at this point without statistics to back it up. But there are holes in this reasoning if this is the argument for an extra doll over cloak. An extra doll gives you a slight advantage if you are trying to counter chaos lord by using his own mutations, however, this is mostly a fail strategy anyways which might net an additional win every 10-20 games (rough estimate). CL is not an easy matchup for this deck. That being said, I believe cloak would be more advantageous vs. CL because you would play the deck in a more traditional sense, being, let him accumulate damage, BB doll & play cloak, absorb damage & PU w/in 3 turns. Still, the biggest advantage to running 3 dolls continues to be the ability to empty your hand earlier in the average FG matchup.

@JoshK - Follow the protocol outline in the instructions if you would like to test.
@Found2 - We only need a few more decks tested before we have data on all. I believe YCH will come through with CCYB unupped as soon as he gets his computer, a couple people are on Almost Completely Unupped blah blah, one of them being Onizuka so we're fine there. I am 2/3rds done with Cover and Cry, but nobody in their right mind is gonna want to do that deck anyways. I am not sure if our Eternal Chaos tester will come through. It would be nice if you could do that, or any of the top 5 or 6 upped decks so we can get them to 500 games. I'd like to get at least those decks to 500 so we can start removing skip data. Just let me know. Also, you need to post the excel file. Thanks.

The Arena / Re: Banning Supernova, Quantum Tower, and SoG from Arena (Yet another new poll)
« on: July 20, 2011, 03:52:51 pm »Yeah.... that's what I said. I am no longer doing it. You didn't make any original point with your thoughts in this post. I merely was stating that I don't think arena is worth playing for me anymore because I don't think it is worth playing because of the frustration associated with it.Everyone has become so impressive with their decks that arena is now not fun and unplayable to me. There is enough variety in rush/stall/PC that it is overly frustration to try and play a reliable counter to me. That is all.Then dont do arena. Arena IS SUPPOSE to be harder than FG's. It is SUPPOSE to be the "ultimate challenge" or "level 7" that people use to request.

Since BL has been boring me lately. My latest hobby has been grabbing a good book and taking this into PvP1, looking up every so often from what I am reading to see the hilarity that ensues.
