finkel 2 - icecoldbro 0
We both played  + decks, ironically, he with  :airmark on team of aether, and I with  :aethermark on team of air.


unit748596 gave me literally the perfect counter to icecoldbro's deck. icecoldbro said in chat that he was using novas and reflective shields in case I went for gasses, flying lobos in case of wyrms, and PUs for my wyrms/dragons. All of my creatures were immortal, so he ended up PUing his own lobos, and my 6 shockwaves took care of his lobos nicely. We both had fog shields, and I drew one of my two in the first couple turns in both games. The second went on for 6-7 turns without either of us dealing any damage before I started drawing dragons and he lobos+flying weapons.

Game 1: We both got a fog shield out very early, and his lobotomizer did some damage before I got my first phase dragon out. After that I got another dragon out and started overtaking him in damage, finally ending up with 3-4 dragons (don't remember exactly) and killing him.

Game 2: He flew and PUed several lobotomizers, eventually having something like 6 total (plus weapon slot). I killed four of them with shockwaves, and finally had 5 phase dragons out, finishing him off with 50 health.

The deck I used (all due to unit, he designed it and gave it to me):

Code: [Select]

5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5og 5og 5on 5on 5on 5on 5on 5on 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61v 61v 61v 61v 61v 61v

Great game, icecoldbro, your deck was brilliantly designed to counter a wide variety of strategies I would have probably used. The phase dragons were an unexpected twist for you, surely, and the shockwaves just sealed the deal.

You put up a hell of a fight, thanks for a great battle!

[Retribution]

This is why you don't reveal your strategy in chat 

[Ge0metry v1.2]

I think he meant that icecoldbro explained his deck AFTER the battle. however, if it was before.. shamee.

[icybraker]

It was after.

I hate how some of our best creature control decks, pitted against some of the best elements to use them against, were totally and utterly defeated. I have no one to blame but myself.

[MrBlonde]

Much props to air. With all the turmoil you guys have gone through this is impressive.

[finkel]

Ah, sorry for the confusion, I thought it was obvious that he explained in chat after we'd started dueling (during the games, but after it was of no benefit to me to know).

Lol, no, my deck wasn't built specifically to counter his, but it sure turned out that way O.o

Thanks Mr. Blonde

[icecoldbro]

Aww... why didn't you screenshot when icecold had 4 flying lobos (before you killed half of them). It looked cool. It was an epic battle between phase dragons and flying lobotomizers, the epitome of (sorta)!

[finkel]

I did, but then I got distracted and forgot that I didn't paste it before killing them >.< sorry It did look pretty cool ^_^

[Azumi]

Very nice win. Maybe air will show up better than people think after bashing it and saying its the worse element.

[Avenger]

Very nice win. Maybe air will show up better than people think after bashing it and saying its the worse element.

Except that aether got spanked by its own weapon

[tyranim]
