Lone Stalker [1.26 FG grinder]

[wavedash]

I've beaten Eternal Phoenix, basically all luck.

Dark Matter is so tough that "impossible" is a good way to put it, but I got really close once. Early Aflatoxin with Eternity bouncing back his Nymph worked wonders, but his Chargers were too much.

Also, just beat Graviton. Copied Momentum immortal Otyugh won me the game. Again, basically all luck.

Graviton is not at all impossible, and Dark Matter... well, wait for Sanctuary.

I was thinking about adding a Protect Artifact, but... I already took out a Tower for Improved Antimatter (VERY useful), so I don't really know what to take out... Possibly even Permafrost?

I tried out this deck a bit, and relying on Mindgate for Rewind fodder is really unreliable.

Rewind and Copy a malignant cell.

Now added to 1st post:

• Stats from longer test, win rate ***, 69% wins with EM.
• Win rate comparison CCYB vs Lone Stalker

[The_Mormegil]

I still think -1 Tower, +1 PA +1 IA is better. 31 cards, but they make a big difference.

Protect Artifact could help against: Dream Catcher, Obliterator, and Seism.
Antimatter could help against: Ferox, Graviton, Miracle, and Obliterator.

I might try adding Antimatter as 31st card, but taking out 1 Tower may hurt more than what adding PA would help. But that being said, you can never be sure before you actually try it.

Thanks for the deck, Zse. I'm just testing it out and I'm really enjoying the way it spices up each game in comparison to CCBY.

I think I will create a deck called:
"CC? Bothersome? Why?"

[The_Mormegil]

Protect Artifact could help against: Dream Catcher, Obliterator, and Seism.
Antimatter could help against: Ferox, Graviton, Miracle, and Obliterator.

Actually, I find PA to be useful against:
1) Those you stated.
2) Rainbow (protected Pulverizer is nice if I can get him to steal my Eternity soon enough I can use it to slow his draws then stop them when he's too packed of CC cards).
3) Graviton (protected Eternity can win a game almost by itself)
4) Decay (protected Mindgate puts him in a bad position. Plus, you can rewind lock his draw easily and keep copying steals to gather everything he has stolen...)

after reading the records, I noticed the fact that this deck won basically not even once against gods with PC, but won every time against gods without PC...

Your statement is a bit exaggerated, the deck still does quite well with FGs with some PC (about 8 ),
badly versus FG with heavy PC (about 4) , but extremely well vs FG with no PC (about 12 ).

Results are comparable if not slightly better than CCYB.

Pretty much that, but there are some exceptions though:

• Ferox, 0 PC but 8 Dragons/Frogs/Cockatrices, can rush through before defense is up. 40% wins at the moment.
• Scorpio, 0 PC but Poison+Puffer+Physalia can poison-rush before Aflatoxin or Eternity lock is working properly. 43% wins.
• Dark Matter, 0 PC but lots of Quanta Control. 0% wins, although I might have won 1 game if I hadn't made one critical playing error.
• Octane, 4 Explosions. 100% wins.
• Chaos Lord, 2 Explosions 2 Steals. 50% wins.
• Decay, 4 Steal. 60% wins.

*edit* Chaos Lord PC cards corrected.
