So far.. its not looking amazing =/
5 wins - 4 losses
4 * -24 = -96 (discard loss)
5 * 6 = 30 (Salvage gain)
/\ = -66 (current card loss)

Current Vault = 349
349 - 66 = 283
9*30 = 270 (cards needed for 9 decks)

So we're cutting it damn close with cards.. and this is not going to be fun to prepare =S
Good luck Ryan!! wooo Ryan!! Undefeated rookie beats undefeated master!!

My suggestion is we do the massive discards - as best we can. Use the "spreadsheet-of-awesomeness" to spit out a list of the cards we have left then salvage based on deck making..

We will need to look really close at our vault, since no matter what we are down to using almost all our cards..
Obviously we need to wait to see our match-ups, but since our deck building is fairly limited anyway I wanted to encourage thought about the decks we could try to put together..

Discards
(:Air) Pervepic  2 - 1 Salamence747 (:Light)
With 6 from here... and 6 from below we can save a water deck?? Otherwise we ditch water and harvest the light
(:Earth) Terroking 2 - 0 xdude (:Light)
see above
(:Aether) Toimu13 2 - 1 suxerz (:Light)
I like the discords.. that deck might run better with pillars for us and ditching diss?
Looking at our salvages I vote we salvage the entropy imp and make a working light/entropy
(:Earth) Legit 2 - 0 asymmetry (:Light)
Tough.. we can salvage back some aether (from my match).. or not (see below)

Salvages
(:Light) Fenix2011 2 - 1 Mastermind79 (:Death)
Salvage death (2 Arsenic + 1 in vault) to complement bonewall/poison in vault already...
Salvage aether to replace discards..
I prefer the working death deck idea..
(:Light) implosion 2 - 0 Gl1tch (:Life)
Salvage entropy to make a working entropy/light
More discord/nova..
(:Light) Wizardcat 2 - 0 Nadrin (:Life)
Don't know.. maybe adrenaline?
Would anyone expect adren pegs + few heals??
(:Light) Rastafla 2 - 1 Cebra (:Gravity)
Best idea I can think of is RTs just to pack CC..
Or use the Deja's with (more) RTs and bless..
Or momentums (for vs aether)


My cards for illegal deck are:
2  Deflagration
5   Fire Shield
5   Deja Vu
4   Bone Wall
2  Sundial
3   Rain of Fire
1   Momentum
3   Heal
2   Reflective Shield
2   Steal
1   Discord
1   Freeze

and vault is
4 Deflagration
2 momentum
2   Golden Dragon
1   Fog Shield

If we don't take the Stilettos from my Salvage, I will be cross.

Yep, stilts are good for rainbows but I think adrenaline is also good vs bonewall.

Let's grab the novas from implosion's match for a second light-bow deck. The Stilettos from my match, maybe some Momentum and/or Reverse Time from Rasta's, Lightning from Fenix's would work in those.

Congrats to the team winners, really.

Seems we're not bad, despite the average round (well, not average for some of you :B WOO RYAN) So far all of us are playing at R5... Should we discard 12 pillars in some decks and use the conversion trick? Because some decks are really great, they just had terrible matchups.

I clearly live in a lightbulb
So, tell me my friend, what can you see? What comes into your mind as you breathe?
'cause I see colors flourishing like you'd never believe... like a pendulum swings, they swing with me!

I like his deck concept, but it seems poorly executed. Anyone want  to combine this salvage and wiz's salvage to make a better version of this thing?

(:light) Fenix2011 2 - 1 Mastermind79 (:death)
Dimshield or fractal I'd say.

Novas probably, do we need more?

Seems like junk to me. Except possibly the momentums, but if we need pillars this should be the first place to convert from IMO.

I thought we should look at the numbers more clearly so I've taken the suggestion from Salamence's suggestion (not counting any salvages or conversion) and we'll have this in our vault - see spoiler.

Hmm... 41 Light Pendulum and 18 Light Pillar seems a bit tight. Even if we create 2 Nova deck and 1 Immo deck, we'll have on average 9.83 pillars/pends for the remaining 6 decks each.

41   Light Pendulum
18   Light Pillar
16   Miracle
12   Fire Bolt
9   Photon
8   Burning Pillar
8   Immolation
8   Morning Star
8   Ice Bolt
7   Pegasus
6   Deflagration
6   Earthquake
6   Nova
6   Graboid
6   Fire Shield
6   Rage Potion
6   Phoenix
5   Deja Vu
5   Reflective Shield
4   Flying Weapon
4   Bone Wall
4   Blessing
4   Ice Shield
4   Discord
4   Stone Skin
4   Fractal
4   Rain of Fire
