More to post after matches revealed but.....

we will likely need to go with a crusader/flying weapon deck for Lt/General (so they can use animate weapon without :air .)  Unfortunately, we only have 2 vampire daggers, but maybe an arsenic deck?

 :entropy deck will pack antimatter.  It would have made a real difference in my match up in round 2.  Consider this for a :life or :air matchup.

 :fire is a problem for us, but hopefully we don't face its general for a 3rd time in a row.  >:(

Yeah, hopefully we just don't face fire. n _ _ n
I'm not very good at analysis, but will we stick to the strategy of using Grabbows? They seem to be working well for us.

Also we should try to get decks done early so Kirch's problem isn't repeated by the rest of us.


Also, another thought - how can we get all our decks to be unexpected ones? As you can see :entropy wasn't expecting a Deja Hope anticord - how accuratley do we need to the predict the other teams to get decks that suprise and possibly even counter them?

A thought for our next :earth matchup (or, the deck kirchj33 should have had)--it's pretty EQ resistant, and beats the grabby/GotP deck 8-3 in the trainer.  Not sure it's totally balanced, and couldn't decide on 2 vs 3 arsenics, but it needs 3 skull shields to get it up early, and at least 4 plagues to bring down hp on a mass scale.

I tested this deck against several Death decks in trainer and this deck looks good against Soul Catcher, Nova-Grab, Discord. And the deck can survive 20-30 poison counter.

Does it do well vs the deck they used last round with EQ/Bonewall?

Tested, it is useless against it. But this deck can handle that EQ/Bonewall deck easily (4:0) (with unupped cards):

I inspected their decks, what they uses: the only danger for this deck is his plagues, but they uses this card only 1-2 deck/round, against us null times.
Edit: This can win against Soul Catcher (3-0), Nova-Grab (4-2)

For my third round match against Gravity general, I would suggest either of the following two decks:

or my 1st round deck:

Code: [Select]

No preference, whatever works best for the team with leftover cards.

I am not sure what to run against Water. I at first considered Poison stall, but it's possible for them to run purify against us. Right now discorders looks like something good to run against them.

Any suggestions?

I think firestall or poison stall are good choices--they have lots of good CC at their disposal (bad for our slow creatures) and have run very few decks with PC (explosions with steam machine) but they do have a couple of discord decks and a trident deck.  I think we can beat them in the bolt decks category (ice bolt < fire bolt).  And sanctuary/fireshield would protect against the nymph decks (gravity and adrenaline) and discord, provided we get it up early enough.  As for whether they'd pack purify against us, I seriously doubt it but it's free healing for them and it's in element so not impossible.

Anyway my 2 cents.

I believe I saw a disorder as a suggestion for me.  Due to the hectic Easter weekend, I have been unable to do much at all for the round.  I can't even get typewithme to come up...  I will be back online in a few hours, but I was happy with that deck if no one else needs it.
