Jon94 (Jon941) 2-0 Icybraker in for Wassd13

[Jon94]

Icybraker had to sub in this round for Wassd13, who hasn't been on in a while.

Here was my deck:

Code: [Select]

5f6 5f6 5f6 5f6 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5of 5of 5of 5of 5og 5og 5om 5om 5om 5om 5om 5om
The strategy was pretty simple. Spam unstable gases, fog shields for defense, dragons for extra damage, and deflags to destroy any  permanents. It was pretty much the perfect counter for Icy's deck.

Icy played an aether/time deck, with phase shields, fractals, fate eggs, and at least one lobo.

Game 1: I lost the coin toss, but I got a dragon out quick. This game ended up being extremely close, as I think I had 3? HP left at the end. It was pretty simple. He evolved his eggs into pretty big creatures, while I spammed unstable gases. I deflagged a phase shield as well. I barely came out on top.

Game: This one wasn't very close. I lost the toss again, but I had a great hand. I got 4 unstable gases out early, and was able to kill his fate eggs before they evolved. I also had a fog shield, and had to deflag another phase shield. Finally, I drew a dragon to finish him off. He had a lobo out this game, but it didn't do anything, because my creatures were all dragons.

Great games Icy! You put up a great fight in that first one, and there was nothing you could do about my draw in the second one. I guess this proves all the air haters wrong.  3-3 through the first round!

I love how most of the decks ends up playing are perfect counters. I sure hate luck.

And to add insult to injury, it was luck that was a major factor to me losing this game. My Fate Eggs hatched middling or weak creatures on the most part.

think I had 3? HP

I'm pretty sure it was 6.

Good game.

Psst, Icy, you forgot the deck.

fractal fate eggs? lol that looks funny (although very luck-based...wouldnt really call it the perfect counter)...do you have any screenshots?

[WakSkylicker]

...wouldnt really call it the perfect counter

Unstable gases = all fate eggs die and gets past dim shield

[finkel]

fractal fate eggs is actually REALLY fun ^_^ I made a version to fight ai3 with that consisted of 6 dim shields, 6 PAs, and the rest cards designed to get a fractal+egg out ASAP while hiding behind shields. it is SOOO much fun (with 4 supernovas to use abilities ^_^)

[BryonNara]

Lol i started using this deck and I lost because two of my fate eggs turned into fate eggs.
