Game one: He got an early discord, but massive cc and pc stopped his offense.

Game 1.5: I got an early fire shield. He didn't get an early discord. Desync.

Game two: I got an early fire shield. He didn't get an early discord. I also drew fahrenheit fairly early, and it killed him along with my phase dragons. I bolted a turn early, and he comically played a dissipation shield, and there was a desync the turn before I drew my 5th/6th fire lance. He gave me the win. lol.

ggs.

Soo... we pretty much knew we were up against like 20 firestalls from light.  And once they got out reflecting shields, that was game over for us unless we could stop their quanta.  So that's what we tried, both games.  Unfortunately, fire stall also excels at CC, but light didn't pack /any/ permanent control in their vault.  So we tried to win with discord.  Unlike last war, I've yet to be disappointed with a deck life took.  All of these were noble efforts on our part.

Also:  Antimatter gets the most useless card in the round award, for having been dutifully drawn in my opening hand all three games.

Good games. At first I was totally confused by Glitch's deck, as I saw emerald shield in spec but nothing on Implosion's side, but it turned out to be one of my favorite decks in the entire war 2 so far. Everything weaves so well together like a clockwork, and 1 dissipation shield was a nice touch. Too bad Glitch lost, but hey you win some and lose some.

Congrats imp on the win~ it sorta calms me down to see doing so well (not counting me ofc :b )

[Kurohami]

Killsdazombies should really properly dispel that curse.

[wizelsnarf]

Not funny.

Life is taking a whipping this round....

We took the 2 things that might save us: emerald shield, discord.

Of course unlike last round, you brought mirror shield (stupid me for mentioning it last round).

Really your deck is hard to beat. I can think of two ways to beat it right now.

1: use the same exact deck you guys did.

2: use an earth/water earthquake, protected trident combo to lock this deck down before it gets anywhere.

Thats about all I have.

Firestalls can be beaten by poison decks as well.

Firestalls can be beaten by poison decks as well.

I doubt poison could take down 3 miracles.

Or a pestal (upgraded pests) with nova + reflective and drain lifes >_>

[wizelsnarf]

the pest would be killed before they could burrow. The mirror would be useless as they have a mirror to self bounce bolts on. Even if you could get up a mirror shield and bounce your drain life onto them you wouldn't have enough  to make a kill because all your devourers would be dead.

[Glitch]

It's true, there aren't many counters to firestall upgraded, and beating it unupped will be a feat.

Although I did see a key flaw in his deck.  The following could beat it, easily:

Voodoo doll decks.  (Vampire it and rage it.  Have fun killing it, jerk)
Stone Skin.
/Other miracles/ + Eternity

We should have taken some of those, we didn't.  My bad.

I doubt poison could take down 3 miracles.

A dedicated Deathstalker deck might be able to; I've beaten Firestalls in T50 before.  They are usually easier than Life rushes actually.
