The decks were a little mismatched for this one. My deck was basically built to screw his over.

Game 1: I didn't draw any Flying Weapons for ages and he built up a ton of poison with an early Arsenic, but eventually a few Adren'd Druidic Staffs beat him into the ground whilst saving me from the 26+ poison counters I'd racked up.

Game 2: Drew an earlier Flying Weapon and chipped away through bonewalls for the win. Even a rush of five Mummies couldn't take me down, as Owl's Eye and Shockwave made short work of them.

Yeah, wrong choice of deck. We expected something else.
There really isn't much else to say, I tried to survive but my two plagues always came late, and my bonewalls obviously didn't help much against adrenalined staves without enough plagues. We will have our revenge..

I was really worried daxx, but sure enough you had one of our best, cleanest wins. Congrats and thanks for leading the charge.

Unfortunately it was at Death's expense but it is nice to see Life turning things around a bit.

Looks like my deck

just wanna point out that... life is one of the only elements that has very epic natural counters to this deck without even knowing it... there is adrenaline, healing, and creature spam and two plagues would probably not have been enough to counter it

and you guys used it against a 50% life deck...

but i guess death cant be blamed for it cuz people make mistakes and miscalculations

You have a deck?

Welcome to the War where counters counter counters and counters to that counters counter counters.
Outside of obvious, Vault and previous games do have an effect on what people field in match. If you go look at our previous fights with , you'd see that both matches we won, we used hiding behind shields with tons of CC. Their combo deck failed there, and would fail again if we used it again. Considering has tons of Deflags in the Vault, it was a really bold move to go with something that... already failed. And this time it worked.

If we used here say Dim Shields again with Lightnings and Plagues, and they used Deflags, would you come saying "oh, you didnt expect they would try to counter you this time"?
