Game 1: saw the 30 card gravity mark deck and figured it must be scarabs - I hadn't done any testing against this. I had all 3 discords in my opening hand, played one as soon as I could, but pwconfirm had an awesome quanta draw and got a pharaoh out before I could play a dragon. Played 2 rage pots on a pharaoh, but another one wasn't far behind. Figured this would be easy once I got my dragons out... but uh oh, Reverse Time! Couldn't keep up with pwconfirm's damage, think I deflagged an hourglass at one point but it wasn't enough.
0-1. Upgraded +2 Entropy Pendulum.Game 2: I figured I needed to get my dragons out faster to power through RTs, so I upgraded 2 pends for the extra quanta. Had an opening Discord here again, the upgrades seemed to work out fairly well because I beat pwconfirm down to 0 with one turn to spare.
1-1Game 3: no opening Discord spelled trouble for me. I drew it eventually, but it wasn't enough to stop pwconfirm's Pharaoh army. Played rage potions on scarabs to slow them down for a while - lost by one turn.
1-2. Upgraded +2 DiscordGame 4: after realizing how valuable Discord was, I upgraded 2 of them instead of opting for more upgraded pendulums. Drew all 3 in my opening hand, wasn't quite able to field one on turn 1, but a turn 2 upped Discord racked up a lot of damage before pwconfirm's first Pharaoh came out. I tried a tricky little play here, instead of burning both potions on the Pharaohs, I played a dragon and raged it for 17 damage. It got rewound straight away as I was expecting, but I had the quanta do the same thing straight away next turn. Won with half my HP left.
2-2Game 5: this was it! The deciding moment! I had an awesome 6 pillar/pend draw with a dragon, no Discord but I quickly topdecked an upped one. An unfortunate 3 pillar draw for pwconfirm and the ability to play 2 dragons at once by about turn 5 made this an easy rush win for me.
3-2---
Fantastic games pwconfirm, very close match! The lucky draw on my part in our 5th game sealed the deal for us. Was a pleasure playing with you, and I wish team Time the very best for the rest of the round!
