Rent A Deck - Bracket and Result thread

GGs.  I made a video so we will see if that works... we desynced every game, but there was no contest in any of the four games, as humans lost to AI on one side every time.

Game 1: LOSS

Win coin toss, get pretty good hand.  Haink gets discord... I'm like wut?  Then I precog, he's got wings and black hole in hand.  Wut?  This doesn't look like rent-a-deck, this looks like CL... pretty obvious loss.

Game 2: LOSS

Given the number of upgrades in the last deck, it looks like that's his main deck (and if I had it, it sure as heck would be mine, too!)  So I pick this deck, which ignores wings and has steals for discord and hourglass.  He plays monolife and outrushes me.  I think I could have won with a better hand, but such is life... literally, and figuratively, in this case.

Game 3: WIN

*really* hoping I don't see the discord deck again; the only thing stopping this deck from being borderline OP is the pathetically low quanta count and the total ownage that wings shows this deck.  (I lost a match in a previous round to wings with this deck)  He repeats with monolife, only this time haink's draw isn't as fast, and I manage to come out on top.

Game 4: LOSS

I'm hoping haink will go with whatever his third deck is.  I figure I can beat the life deck more often than not, but the rainbow will simply be too much for any of my decks, I think.  It's the rainbow again.  Discord turn 2, a wings a few turns later, and then a shrieker and a parallel universe on it the same turn.  No chance whatsoever; I'm dead the turn that wings is on 0.

GGs hainkarga, and thank you Rutarete for hosting and my opponents for renting me some cool decks

edit: Youtube decided for the first time ever that I need to 'verify my account', which means it wants to text me some code.  I guess if they buy me a cellphone I'll do that... screw them, lol.

Upgrade order. (edited for reasoning)
First 3: Supernova, Supernova, Archangel (Reason: Obviously needed lots of quanta to blitz. and 6+ AP for a single upgrade ? yes please)
Second 3: Supernova, Supernova, Flesh Recluse (Reason: More quanta. Also 3+3 AP for a possibly 1st turn summoned creature could be killer)
Third 3: Quantum Tower, Quantum Tower, Quantum Tower  (Dead shriekers, still slow, more quanta and split against EQ. Keep 2 nova for up+unupped nova combo & early disc)
Fourth 3: Black Hole, Black Hole, Electrum Hourglass (More compliments to early denial.)

Mono Life: I got this from Kakerlake.

FFQ deck. I salvaged this from Lost in Nowhere instead of his powerful mono time with 6 ups (because i already had a mono life which is equivalent or better than mono time) This deck was slow but it could break stalls, had cc, fat ffqs and even hope. This deck works better than it looks. In semi final, my rainbow (with 9 ups) lost to this deck (with 3 ups).

Nice to see my FFQ/Hope making it to the win ^^ Indeed, those shockwaves really balance the deck out and make it awesome.

I'd also gotten the DBH deck, but it was quite bad unupgraded. But yeah, with those upps it's dangerous.

[Higurashi]

lolyep, I had no reliable answer to that FFQ deck among any of the decks I could pick from.
