Game 1: He had a bad draw, and I just used stone skins and waited for the poison to work. I used the bloods on dragons that he played.

Game 2: My titanium shield blocked his arsenic, and my poison/stone skin strategy worked again.

Great games.

They went pretty much as he said, though its worth noting before those 2 games we had about 7 or 8 desync's over the last 2 days heh. We finally tried it with both of us using firefox and without chatting or anything, and it worked. The first game, I drew 1 poison and no arsenics in my first 17 cards, so I had almost no chance. The 2nd game I had a decent draw, with an arsenic in starting hand, but he played his shield the same turn I played the arsenic, so I just wasnt able to build enough damage to power through his stone skins before he was able to kill me.

You have no idea how important this win was. Thank you and congrats! Disappointed I missed this match as well though...

Legit, my guess is the mark is death for your deck?

Yes good games. They went pretty much as he said, though its worth noting before those 2 games we had about 7 or 8 desync's over the last 2 days heh. We finally tried it with both of us using firefox and without chatting or anything, and it worked.
I'm actually curious about the desync's.

Did the two of you play through the main element site or through kongregate?  Something I've been noticing is that I think playing through kong can add about 20 seconds of "dead time" between turns even with good connections, and as much as 40 seconds on poor connections.  I was noticing that while testing decks with other people in my team that I was talking to.

In other words, you have 60 seconds to do your turn, if 20-40 seconds are wasted in transit... then really any turn you spend more than 20 seconds on might cause a drop even though your timer shows you have lots of time.  (ie, Your timer says you have 60 seconds, but at that moment your opponent sees you as having 40 seconds and has been counting down for 20 seconds before you started.  If your reply takes up to 20 seconds, then really, if your turn isn't over before you hit the 40 second mark on your screen, it may not make it.)

I noticed a dramatic improvement when I used the main site directly for pvp instead of through kong, but I haven't done it enough times each way to be sure it wasn't a fluke.

And congrats on the win Legit, as dema said, important for earth.

I used the main site, and I assume Nume did as well. We were both using IE at first, then we switched to Firefox, and we still desynched. After that, we stopped talking in chat, and that seemed to cure the problem.

Yes I also used the main elements site. I think some of our DCs may have just been caused by the fact that I'm playing on a rather poor work network. I work odd times so we'd have had to wait til friday to do the games with me on my home network.

Well said. Of course, it is only the first round, not exactly going to make or break the event.
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.
