I don't know that I would change anything.
You might get lots of light quanta but I'm not sure that I would want to replace anything to put light cards in.

As for liguid shadow, I would rather use it on a blessed/epi-ed doll.
It gives an extra 4 damage per turn (so 16)  from the poison on the voodoo and more healing than a golden dragon so long as the opponent doesn't have a titanium shield or something.

Ahh, thanks ddevans.
Didn't know that it isn't a consistent phenomenon.

Is Zanz maybe doing this intentionally to wean us off t50?
I know I for one want to farm t50 like crazy before it is replaced by t500/the arena.

Decks look good!
Glad you agreed with the general direction I was going in.

Bonewalls and death mark in the fire deck? Or just 2 fogs instead of wings/OE? (OE seems useless here)
And then we could do fractix vs. aether.

We kind of need to decide what our strongest cards are going to be going forwards, because we're going to have to convert a bunch. A big question here being whether or not we want to keep our aether pends.

Cards that can go (IMO), are: antimatter, blessing, scarab, one of our 3 fogs (?), OE, lobo, titanium.

Edit: OP has been "updated". Its really late here and I'm sleepy so I might have not thought those changes through as well as I think I did. Change as you feel fit, Sev/t4. Note I've only used 5 of our 6 salvage, so the last card can maybe be converted?

EQs? Dims? PU? Don't really know.

Right now I'm thinking we do an arsenic/shield stall vs. Aether and a crazy creature/CC deck vs. fire.
OP has been updated accordingly. Opinions please.

Cloak/PA may be necessary in Sev's deck(?) depending on whether they have steals from their devtal or deflags from PU pheonix (I'm not sure).
A maybe viable option is aether mark, upped bones as well.

Edit: Just realized the shitty part is going to be converting things into QPs.

What about fractix with bonewalls and CC vs. Fire?
I'll get a prototype up soon, but I think it  to be a solid counter.

That basically leaves us the deck we've been playing vs. Aether or something with dims or antimatters...neither of which is very appealing.

We can also consider CC with creatures vs. fire and shield stall vs. Aether.

Fire definitely has a solid grabbow. With the event card from last round being a factor too they could probably throw a pretty decent mono-fire at us if they want.
I don't really see them playing anything other than the grabbow though.

As for Aether, I don't really know what they're going to come up with. My best guess is that they'll do their best to counter what we've done to them so far. So I'm actually thinking we might get a rush from them. Do they still have a decent grabbow? I don't know. I think they have PU phoenixes too, but I'll check.

Ya I'm leaning towards -antimatter, +CC that kills. I played a few matches vs. entropy's grabbow and did ok. If the AI hadn't used its deflags poorly the games I won would've been a lot closer.
I know hourglass seems like a poor choice, but in some situations I think it could be the difference between winning and losing.
Especially if we've done a lot of poison damage and have had shields deflagged. We could draw like crazy to get a shield up and then let the poison do its job.
