Round 6 - Decks

[phaedrus]

I don't really know how T50 works.
You're the only two who I've seen there though.
If you can make it happen then great, and if not we can work around it.

Will get updated decks up in the next couple hours hopefully.

[LongDono]

Maybe I should use a firebow vs Air?
Upped Pheonix is good. Also play upped bonewalls, and 1 upped arsenic.
So 3 upped Pheonix, 2 upped bonewalls, 1 upped arsenic.
Then play Pandas, and fire pends with mark of death. I can run the other death extra cards we got. The some FFQs.
I want to make use of Panda, Pheonix, Bonewall combo.

OP HAS BEEN UPDATED.

Opinions please.


@Long,
We could fit a couple upped pheonixes in the FFQ.
Not sure it needs them, but they might help.

[LongDono]

I should play unupped novas. BH could make sure I am never able to play S.nova.

[phaedrus]

I think you're being silly Long.
Please play your deck against 35 card BH decks before jumping to assumptions like you won't get the 2 entropy quanta.
What do you think of the other decks?

Matchups (and decks) are still less than ideal.
I don't know if the DOTK will beat aether, air/death will have a hard time against fire.
etc. etc.

[LongDono]

Atleast one of those games they will draw BH if they play it. Now think about it like this.... I play S.Nova right when I get it, they BH and gain even more. I hold S.Nova then I need 5 or more entropy quanta to retain atleast 2 entropy quanta to use S.Nova after BH.
I could be wrong...
Also I say we go for broke against Aether, hit them with DOTK. XD No Point in second Guessing. Add a steal if possible and hope you can sue it on a phase shield.
Air'death will have a very hard time against fire..... depending on what fire brings. Remember they are at a disadvantage too, no immo rush. ( Lot sof other things though. )

[phaedrus]

I think a 35 card immo rush may be viable.
If we can make a 3 immo deck work then....

I'm not sure air/death has a good matchup at all really.

I see your point about the Snovas bettter now.
If you're able to play it once though (which you should be), and play other cards off it right away (you wouldn't play it if you couldn't) then I think its still worthwhile. If you want 1 nova 1 supernova or 2 novas or just pillars is your call though.

[LongDono]

Ok lets make an immorainbow deck thing, and I wont use pheonix.
I just feel better cards could be used for being upped than S.Nova. I can't really think clearly right now so it is you call. I trust you.

[phaedrus]

OP updated with DOTK now vs earth, Immo vs fire, Denial vs. Aether.
Let me know what you guys think.
Decks still need tweaks, but they're starting to look pretty ok IMO.

[Sevs]

Here is the best option vs. fire IMO.
It is going into the OP for now.
I think we can make it happen

Still don't love DOTK vs aether, because I think they will be able to counter it.
I would maybe prefer using our denial there and the DOTK vs earth (I don't think they'll pack steals? EA pillars?).

for the immo bow, i like the add ons but do you find that you have to many expensive rainbow elements? ill do some testing but something that i thought might arise

i have been testing the dotk vs aether, and really the only thing that can prevent it is EQ's, even a deck with 2 deflags was an breeze. and it can outproduce devtal. Then for EQ's just wait till the PA comes then there is no problem.

[phaedrus]

I see higs maybe running a fractix with lots of deflags.
That would scare me with the DOTK.
Mabe its ok though with enchants.
Denial should be pretty strong there I think too. Maybe needs more healing?

I potentially like DOTK more than denial vs. earth, which has an effect.
Pillars could be EA'd.
They may or may not keep their steals.

LL's deck still needs tweaks. Especially if we want to move a sanc. Don't know if momentums are the best fit there either, maybe just as a buff vs, scarabs. Time doesn't have any shielding.

If we end up not running air/death, we may very well lose a lot of it due to conversions.

[LongDono]

Last round we have near perfect matchups and did poorly, this round we are screwed and will sweep the round? lol remember I said it first.
