Game 1-3 I started first turn with a phoenix, very fast starts

Game 1: The SOV shardgolem had devour, and it denied my opening fractal for two turns in a row, made the game a lot closer on the first miracle.
1 turn off

Game 2: I had the dream hand, no SoIs in silvers. Attempts to stall, but no luck

Game 3: Same as the first, but instead of being denied quanta, I was just super dumb and miscounted lethal by 4, nearly lost after the SoDs and miracles at 16X ish HP. Drew another fractal though, and had full board.
2 turns off from death (1 if a SoI was played, would have had 1 hp remaining)

Down to one turn the first and third rounds.

The second...not a single SoI. Someone from some team (not necessarily blaming here) paid off RNG. >.>

Even thought I'm sorry for losing a game. I'm very happy for team and their 4-1 round. I wonder how many would have believed that was possible after the results in previous rounds. Well done !

I need confess that I'm homesick of  , at least I can beat sofree decks with it

[killsdazombies]

More of a technicality than an actual sofree deck, but I share the sentiment c:

[Vangelios]

But seriously, congrats by your nice round, I'm happy in not see fire in last place... the top five is still possible

Any element can, they just needed to bring the counter in their initial vault. Planning on salvaging it is a hell of a risk :>

Wow, 0-3 and they didn't have any dims?  That is... about our typical RNG this war... We'd have about another ten match wins if war was about best-of-50s instead of best-of-5s.

Curious what you think an aether counter to sofree is. I've been testing a lot things that aren't in our vault, and I still haven't found one.

Without going to the test table. Disco use to be the real bane for mono decks. With your fractal powers, bow, etc something should work?
Out rushing should be the second option. I can understand if it's hard to out rush Afda with his upps but vs a normal soldier you should be able to do something?

It's not perfect, but it does win more often than not even as a Soldier vs. a Gen. In the long run, the problem of it being a duo and the mono being a mono remains... still hurts that I can't share until War is over though.

Discord - only slows monos down a turn or 2, plus wings can be played before disco most games if drawn

Fractal decks can only go so fast. Even a pure fractix rush is often slower.

Bows are trolled by wings and EE

Other rushes are often trolled by wings and EE as well

Sofree bypasses dims (and all other shields) and increases the attack. Oh yeah, sofree nullifies cc too. So almost all types of control are dead. Definitely not OP or anything.

So what works vs sofree? Dials...except there is no aether dial deck that can stall long enough or hit fast enough. Sosac...may buy you a couple turns but you can't get fast enough damage out (reclusetal is good combo, but wings...). Other AOE cards get damsels, but need at least 3 to kill dragons.

Im sure there are other options that I am leaving out, but this is all I can think of while posting from my cell. Also, I've done all testing using at least Lt decks. As far as I have tested, there are no aether counters (which I define as winning 75% or more). And honestly, I haven't found a deck that does much better than 40-50%.
