Sorry xdude.  Totally forgot about your upgrades.  Glad you caught that in time.  ;D

Ok, so my thoughts once again on the eve of battle.

xdude should have an easy win here unless they have Bone Walls and Reflective Shields and 37 cards.  I seriously doubt that.

Hobnob should have decent chances to win.  I doubt he'll go Supernova, but I think this deck has an ok chance against that as well, just depends on his cards (particularly PC cards).  Worst thing that could happen is if you get Carapaces out late or Zeru gets Butterfly Effect early and uses it on a Lycan instead of using the Lycan ability.  Hopefully, you'll get the first win by surprise and then can squeeze a win in game 2 or 3.

Candle should have a slight edge on speed versus Shriekers or Dragons.  Like I said before, I don't think they'll play Graboids.  If you lose, I think it'll be because of bad draws which Immolation decks tend to suffer sometimes (and yours particularly because it only has 4).

Helios, unless they play a Fire bolt deck, I think you have a decent chance of winning as well.  Phoenixes would be your worst matchup, but even then, I think you could pull off a win with all your CC and Miracles.

Implosion, either they have RoF/Fire Shield/Momentum or they don't.  You win if they don't.

And finally me.  It's a stretch, especially with only 1 MS, 2 Fractals, and 3 Pegasus.  Mine is probably a lost.  But if the stars align just right . . .

Recap:

Dragoon: Well, I lost.  Sorry about that guys.  I think the Air mark is better overall, but an Aether mark would've saved me in game 3.  I had like 4 Dim Shields in hand and finally drew my Aether Pillar turn 6.  Could've stalled until I got my strategy up starting turn 7.  Oh well; I still think the Air mark is better overall.  Who knew he wasn't gonna pack any Deflags!  So close, so close.  Curse you bad draws!!!

Implosion: Good try man.  You were so close to winning too!  I guessed wrong though about them not using that Devourer deck again.  Oh well.  We had to use this deck sooner or later.

Helios: Well, there goes our second Fire match.  Candle was right; they went with Dragons.  It's amazing how we can call and nail both their decks down and still lose because of bad draws.  *Sigh*  We've been cheated this round.

Hobnob5000: Praise Divine Glory we won a game!  Great job Hobnob.  Maybe we can go for 3-3 this round.  We guessed wrong about Zeru's deck.  But what's the chances that he would put together a crazy pimped suicide deck?  Well we won.  That's what counts I suppose.

xdude: And the crowd goes wild with another point for Light!  Yeah, they had no answer to our tried and true deck.  I'm glad I grabbed those Death cards from last round.  We might be able to make a Poison Stall next round.

candle: Bad draws and more bad draws.  We had no luck this round.  Finished the round 2-4.
