Thanks for posting this. I had no doubt you had this analyzed to the T and i am just ecstatic we managed to at least foil the final part of your plan. Now my mission is almost complete. A war title, 4 master titles, and only a grandmaster title to go...

Great games Majofa. We felt with this deck we had a very good chance of beating most of your decks. Fortunately for us RNG was relatively good for me and Death brings home the title. =)

Game 1 (loss) - Was very happy to see Majofa with a 32 card deck with an aether mark. Highly unlikely it would be a RoL/Hope deck so i had my "hope"s up high. We were feeling each other out this game and i had an early arsenic. Dont remember everything except that i could have decked out Majofa but i got all excited and decided to fractal my dragons on him without having the correct enough quanta to not let my dim shield chain die. Ugh... Like the pro he is he took advantage of my mistake and a miracle and a lightning/fractal angel push ended me.

Game 2 (win)- This game after kicking myself in the head a few times because of the previous game i decided to not play like a nOOb. Basically just made sure he couldn't fractal angel surge me and kill me with lightnings. Had an early arsenic which forced majofa's hand in playing his shields early and i managed to find a hole in his shields and my fractal dragons were able to get through.

Game 3 (win) - So i win the toss for the 3rd straight game but this time no early arsenic and just a lone unupped poison for the first half of the game. Once again made sure he couldn't OTK me and again was able to eventually get a break in the dim shield chain.

Game 4 (win) - Lost the toss here and was flooded with quanta (i was getting very poor pend pulls which can hurt the dim chain but here i pulled 2 from the start) and had my arsenic and poison up and running early. This time Majofa played it close to the vest and didn't start chaining his dim shields once my arsenic came out, likely because he had 2 early sanctuaries out. He didn't play any shields or angels until he had 15 cards left or so and only played his longsword (very late as well) so i was able to hoard my shields (only had 2 so i was starting to get worried). But by the time he had 9 cards left i managed to pull enough shields to deck him out. I actually took a SS of me having 4 dims in hand but i decided to make this thread real quick and pasted the link in chat (yes i am a noob) overwriting my print screen. I ended up killing Majofa this match but i would have decked him regardless.

Thanks for the matches everyone and thanks to all my teammates who made this possible. We had a little luck, a little skill, and a lot of dedication from the team. Thanks again to the Warmasters, Scaredgirl and all those who participated. I have the highest respect for the members of team as they were just as deserving as us to win.

Been playing around with the deck a bit and i have to say that recluse can be very very helpful especially if it gets drawn early along with the fractal. I will test more and see what version seems better.

Thanks again everybody for all your contributions because without it we would have done very poorly with how absent i have been. I am disappointed with my contributions and i feel that this will be my last battle as a Master or i would hand it off for Jay to play (sorry and thanks for understanding). I feel obligated to defend my title as Master but i don't think i will be leading a team again in the near future.

THIS is the perfect deck, I don't see any kind of deck light can run to beat it.

GOGO Blondey, go end this war with our victory ! We trust in you dear Gen !

Thanks Ralouf!

Lol. Kevkev gave us his blessing to play at this time which i am thankful for. Regardless of the outcome this has been a great war and would not have been possible without the contributions of it's many members. I'd like to post my thanks here and give credit where credit is due since 's success had very little to do with me beyond Propaganda.

Jaymanfu - Did soooo much work and i am very thankful for. Great guy and stayed up late many a night to get our decks correct and optimized. Easily one of the best bargains i've ever had along with Shantu.
Root - Thanks for being a great lieut and all the input you have given throughout.
Jippy - Great vault keeper who kept my vault clean, spotless and error free. First time ever i barely had to touch the vault.
Ralouf - Lots of great input, great support and a great player who was always here and dependable to pick up slack when needed.
PlayerOa - Our undefeated player. Sorry i couldn't get you more matches Oa. Your input was also very helpful and much thanks for being around.
AgentFlare - Thanks for the great Propaganda poster. Definitely helped out with us winning those extra cards which was important.
xnoize - Thanks for not dying on us and getting better. You'll always hold a special place with me in the Elements community.

Special thanks to:

Kevkev for being a great 1st time warmaster and hope he continues to do so. Also huge thanks to Ddevans who does a lot more of the behind the scenes stuff and seems to not get as noticed. It is greatly appreciated by many and just wanted to let you know.

The players who created our new vault spreadsheet and all the spreadsheets in general. Hopefully we can continue to make War a better and smoother event.

Scaredgirl for all the work she puts into Elements amongst our whining.

Okay Majofa good luck, have fun and may the better made deck win.

Salvage - 2 steals, 4 nightmares (irrelevant since we aren't using them or converting them)

Final battle will be on Wednesday 2200 GMT. I am still contemplating whether i should have Jay play the final match. I think it would be pretty cool to have a brother vs brother matchup for the finale. Anyhow Jay chime in with your thoughts.

it really seems crazy that they would go RoL/Hope though. Bah. I would rather not have plagues at all but we can't just take that chance

Well...

Light is using Sancs. There's little doubt about it. Sancs cancel poison and stop Nightmare. Plus Light probably has a Miracle or two. Basically, what I'm saying is that we can't win until we drop a Fractalled Dragon.

How about we cut out the Poisons and use 2x Dragon with 2x Fractal?
Something like this, maybe.
6 Dims, 2 Plagues, 2 Dragons, 2 Fractals, 1-2 Arsenics, 16-17 Pillars/Pends.
I'm out of town and can't test, but this might end up being our best option.

Well if we are doing that might as well add the upped recluses
