Immo rush vs. Trio (grabbies/EQ, trident, RTs)

Game 1:

Checking his mark first, I noticed earth, so decided to slowplay my pendies to start.  Got a decent draw with some photons, an unupped immo, and a phoenix.  He seemed to get a slow start.  Played a couple grabbies fairly early after some damage was accumulated, but had problems launching them.  He played a fairly early trident as well, and I burned the lone deflag I had pulled at that point, primarily for damage prevention.  Eventually I got another phoenix out and worked his health down.  He RT'd a phoenix with one round to play, but I had enough quanta built at that point to replay and finish the win.  Victory achieved with high 50's in health remaining.


Game 2:

Poor draw again for vinvick3714, and nothing spectacular going on over on the light side either.   I started with a photon, pendy, a couple of golems, deflag, blessing, and an unupped immo.  Launched the golem to start, while he played a graboid on his second turn.  I was a bit nervous after seeing RT's the match before because I was short on quanta with my draw and he drew heavy time quanta.  I saved quanta for a couple of rounds after drawing another pendy and a phoenix.  Deflagged another trident and played the pendy, hoping he had no ice shields.  His water quanta was a little ways away from being able to play one anyways.  When the game looked like it could go either way, I drew a game changing upped immo at the same time I was able to play a phoenix and golem.  Victory achieved with mid 30's in health.


Conclusion:

Well played match by vin, and I appreciate his willingness to work together on a time and show up responsibly.  He is a class act.  His deck seemed well prepared for immo rush as well as some other stally type decks, but the RNG gods did not allow him the satisfaction of seeing his deck come together in coordination.  I feel lucky to have won my first match and am glad to have the nerves and monkey off my back.

Round 1: not a single time pendulum/pillar till the very end, but lots of RT's(Dead cards) and Grabby's(couldn't evolve them) in my hand. Easy win by him, I couldn't do anything.

Round 2: Not a single RT, but 1 time pend and 1 Time Pillar. If I got a couple RT's, this game easily could have been mine.

Good games kirch, you were a great opponent.

RNG gods, have mercy on my soul for next round.

I'm one of the most unhappy ones right now, seeing a deck designed to take care situations like this fail so hard after all the successful testings.. but it's a game like this.

Good Games, and thank you Kirchj, for being such a sport.

The deck designed to beat immo rush had 4 tridents and an earthquake?

And good job, kirchj33.

I welcome your inquiry, RootRanger, but the deck is not focused exactly on 'immo rush'. As you could agree, making these type of decks from any other base element than Fire - especially in war setting - makes them work less fluidly (if even just slightly); and also keeping in mind all the other possibilities one's creativity allows.

I imagine this match could have gone either way.  Opening/early hands have a lot to do with outcomes.  It appears this match was no exception.

Congratulations, kirchj33!  A little bit of sunshine for Light's otherwise gloomy round.
