When i saw the aether mark, i sighed in relief. Ghostal is countered, if i play correctly.
1. I tried to hide my exact card counts, started dimshield late. Stole his eternity, then another. I also stole some pillar so i won't get short of time quanta should i need.
2. Same as before, he more or less played like one would play a ghostal. I intentionally feinted a dim shield chain break so he has to play his hand and i could discharge the lightnings.
3. He tried to play slowly, forced me to discard some lightnings. Didn't play eternity and didn't draw any cards. I knew i won't need any lightnings, if i play correctly, so i discarded some. I guess i should have discharged them on him, it would have been easier for me.
With 2 steals in hand, I played for 3TK. I brought him down to 40 hp, 9 vampires on table, i just had to wait for the 10th. Exact damage.

Congrats to

, you have used a precognition on our deck and built a perfect counter!

Game1: When I saw the darkness mark, I though it is going to be fractal devourers, but I was wrong...
Avenger stole my pend and then the eternity, I was pulling cards until I realized I will deck out and I can do nothing about it...
I even got my second eternity bottom-decked, so no way to rewind anything, lost to deckout.

Game2: Figured I have to play damage fast to force early dim-shield, so I played quick ghost, but it got killed by lightning, so I did not achieve anything again...

Game3: Lost coin toss so I figured if I don't pull anything and don't play eternity for Avenger to steal it, then I might be able to deck him out...
Unfortunately, he could break my dim-shield chain by stealing, so even that plan did not work out...

Good games Avenger!

Sorry team, we got hard-countered, I could not do anything against dim shield chains + steals.
