Didn't sideboard anything - all cards had a solid place in this matchup.

With Devourers leeching the limited Fire quanta from Air's deck, ProBacon had a very difficult matchup here, essentially running a pure NT deck against 6 Sundials (fair and balanced), the Dagger/Dusk combo, and the constant threat of Nightmares.

I had much better luck than the first time I tried playing this deck in War #9 - Devourers and SoPa came early each game, with the quanta to play them.

We disconnected in game 2, and the AI was terrible with both decks (ProBacon's played a Red Nymph, mine played Nightmare on Blue Nymphs and probably performed very poorly with Sundials, as per his screenshot) but Air's narrow loss with my comfortable win declared the game a win for Darkness.

Reporter: "Tough matchup this round Bacon, how did you feel going into the round and how do you feel with the turn out?"

ProBacon: "I will not answer any questions. I am only here so I don't get fined."

Surprised to see you kept the Steals. Did UG pose that big of a threat? Also, taking out some Dolls seems decent enough.

Well played!

[Physsion]

UG wasn't of particular threat because of my Devourers, but with unused Fire quanta of my own, each Steal was a free 20 damage to add to my win condition (as well as some bad luck protection if my Devourers didn't perform well.)

Left the Dolls in as extra creatures for SoPa, given that I only had 6 Devourers for damage without them.
