First game, went pretty smooth for me. Brought out maxwell's demons and later on druids and nymphs. Adrenaline beat down.

Second game, got a quanta screwage, especially after he deflaged one of my pillars.  Got outrushed because I don't have enough CC and quanta to take care of him. He had a decent draw as well.

Third game, more quanta screwage in the opening hand, but I drew a pillar/pend almost every turn after. So CCed his creatures and killed him with demons and druids on steroid.

Overall, very well-played Rastafla. The second game got me worried, and the third was a traumatic experience seeing my opening hand.

My deck was well-built, thanks to Sir Valimont, gg and see you in the next war.

Congratulations Kurohami for a match played with skill and nerves of steel.

The first game went as planned ... but not the next two.

In the hour before this match, I played a deck virtually identical to Rastafla's deck (predicted it to within 1 card), and we practiced. We played about 7-8 games. Kurohami always drew 3-4 pendulums, every single game, and had ample Entropy quanta.

However against Rastafla, he was quanta screwed the second two games! The middle game he simply could not bring out anything -- with two pendulums for most of the entire game. I reassured him he would get a good draw in the final game ... and he was quanta screwed again.

Well of course I started losing it in our private chat, cursing the evil luck of team :light (more on that later) but Kurohami remained cool as a cucumber and managed to make ends meet with a few pillars in his next turns and intelligently invested quanta.

As for team :light, you were an extremely worthy opponent, one which we never underestimated. And it is precisely your skill that makes us happy to see you leave, as we feel our contenders' number has been cut majorly with your exit. As for your luck, I said it before and will repeat: You had an extremely bad set of matchups this round and that's unfortunate. Well played matches and sorry to be the ones to eliminate you. Our hit list is 3 teams long now. :|

Ouch... and I bid :light second. Seems like my chances of winning shards dropped considerably.

Light could have ended 2nd after this round, had they won each duel.
Seems though that their shiny days are over like a supernova that turns into a black hole.
Oh, I see the evil demons and fallen druids dancing around a campfire, performing their evil rituals and sacrifices to the gods of RNG.
I see great heroes, lightbringers, falling and being torn to pieces by the angry horde of monsters, full of adrenaline.
I see courage and skill extinguished by a strong force that few dare to fight and even fewer succeed.

And I bid my farewell to those heroes, we will remember you.





Gratz team Entropy on predicting the deck perfectly. Your strategy and ability to predict so many decks never ceases to amaze me... I guess there is both hard work of gathering informations, some knowledge of statistics/probability/whatever and a lot of PvP skillz and experience involved.
I wonder if there is reverse psychology involved too.
May the force of the D4HK side be with U ^_^

Defeating :light is probably the most significant achievement in this war. Entropy's victory song shall be played for the first time.

Victory song (

And of course the war song as well.

Or maybe you are going to use reverse time in the future, which is why we are here now ...
