World Championship - TOP 8



RULES
Before each round, every player will choose 6 elements and rank them in order of most preferred and send them in to majofa.
The only elements allowed are the 6 elements listed by your match up. (The top 3 listed from each player.)
You cannot use the same element more than twice in a match.
You cannot use the same combination of elements more than once in a match. (monos included)
Other elements' Pillars, Pendulums, Mark Cards, and Marks may be used. (Using a 'quanta card' doesn't count as using the element.)
You may use up to 4x upgraded cards, where 'x' is the game of the match you are on. (game 1 = 4 ups, game 2 = 8 ups....)
For each copy of a Shard you use, you must reduce the amount of upgraded cards in your deck by 3.
Limit 1 of each Mark card per game.
Limit 2 of each Nymph card per game.
You must declare your used elements after each game.

[Afdarenty]

Afdarenty 4 - 1 inthisroom

So much RNG love. It could easily have been 0-4. Kinda sucks we met 1st round. GGs.

[dragonsdemesne]

jen-i = 4
dragonsdemesne = 2

GGs.

1) WIN.  Countered jen-i fairly well.  I had three possible opening decks for jen-i to choose in mind, and he picked one of them.

2) LOSS.  Monoearth mirror, lost cointoss, got earthquaked.  GG.

3) LOSS.  Low quanta start and cointoss loss meant I lost by 1 turn.

4) WIN.  Successful prediction + weak draw by Jen-i = GG.

5) LOSS.  Got all the light quanta and all the water cards, plus rotten matchup = GG.

6) LOSS.  I had more elemental choices, but I couldn't counter everything.  I picked a deck that I think could have beat everything except one deck type Jen-i had, and I didn't think he'd pick that because I still had emerald shield as a possibility.  He picked that deck anyway... GG :p

[Jen-i]

Jen-i 4 - 2 dragonsdemesne


Great Games dd - thanks for the fun and provoking such great thought - best of luck next year

[TheonlyrealBeef]

TheonlyrealBeef 4 - 1 mrpaper

ggs, last (me) vs 1st in standings eh? :p
Several games (including one I lost) was only 1 turn away from different outcome. We both had amazing quanta draws

[Kakerlake]

Kakerlake 2 - 4 DANIEELA

1st: sick draw for dani, but with a counterdeck, I still managed to pull off a win... tightly.
2nd: 2 pillars in a ~50% pillar deck. thx rng.
3rd: early dagger OP! I won.
4th: got countered
5th: got countered
6th: lost with a counterdeck

ggs, I blame RNG for 2 of those losses! Still, nice matches!
