+6 salvages from napalm's mono fire deck; probably going to be converted

What are those mystery 15 cards would be... If he hid plague somewhere, it would hurt a lot for us. Or else, we won the war. gg.

More research incoming



EDIT : in round 8, ralouf1 used this deck to win, meaning they have at least two plagues right now

Plus their salvages gave them a lot of random rainbow cards.

[Zeru]

They also probably have 6 dimshields.

[Spielkind]

they must have some, cause of jaymanfus salvage in round 8

4 more dims + that 6 dims from jays round 7 deck makes probably 10... so converting some makes sense and they have some left!

i prefer that otk deflag nova combo ^^

so for salvage from time.... take those grabbys for making earth greetings ^^ kaker and me as former earth member love grabbys... and bunnys, obviously!  8) (no matter how dumb it sounds) ^^

[majofa]

There was no Salvage in Round 8. They used them in round 7 vs and won. I doubt they would have converted them, since Dim Shields are win.

[Spielkind]

oh, thats true... forgot about that no salvagething... but i totaly agree with expecting dims!

[rosutosefi]

Worst case scenario. Tested this:

Yes, I know it sucks. But the basic functions are there 

Against this:

Well, 2 steals. Maybe they have more. I think they will avoid nightmares because of sancs, so only steals or dragons will be good salvages for them from darkness (or random rainbow stuff).

So hope will be hard to use. Other shielding option is dimshield. Again, steals. Rush?

If I posted this too late... *jumps off a building*

[suxerz]

What was the test result, sefi? Also, as I mentioned earlier in the 1st page, I'm pretty sure the only rainbow stuff that death can possibly have is from the salvages from fire and darkness.

Sorry, I can't contribute much this time. If you ask me, I prefer the 2nd Volt that Zeru posted in chat:

Btw, your match is on Wednesday, 22:00 GMT, majofa? That's already past the deadline. Or... am I missing something here?

[rosutosefi]

Well, no wins. Just saying that even a fast RoL/Hope can't beat their plagues with only 4 fractals left. Voting for volt or something similar.

[GG]

I'm rooting for volt as well. Testing confirms that RoL hope absolutely can't stand against plague.

But then again, what if they know we're not gonna go RoL hope and go something that counters volt? In that case, we'll safely be able to place RoL hope. But then again what if they saw THAT coming and went for plague instead? Then we'd use volt, in which case they would somehow foresee it and not use plague but then again blahblahbalhbal

[majofa]

They will play Plagues, because the know how powerful it is against our strongest deck.

(I tried working on a rainbow, but since they decided to split, we don't have the cards we need to give it enough kick.

[Kakerlake]

Had a random Idea of going Rainbow (salvages: 4x Nova, Arse, Grabby):

It kind'a failed hard against AI3 -.- maybe it gives someone another idea and would hardly work against Death.
Maybe a random fractal for possible damage burst might help there.

Another idea is the not-so-new DimStall + Fractal kill.

Big problem: Miracle Counters the Fractal... so it has to be used with caution. Didn't test it against Death, but it probably won't work either. PC + Poison > Dim Stall.

So jeah, probably the best thing would be a duo, maybe with a Steal and Deflag off 3 Novas.
We'll have to rely a little on RNG here, but if we win I'll build her an altar.

[NikaZaslavsky]

So this is what I came up with...

It went 15-5 against that deck MrBlonde used against fire this round.
