Round 7 - Strategy

Lt. Sevs   vs    deuce22
Looks like you'll get another crack at them, Sevs. Their vault is pretty large and varied. I'm not really sure what to do here.

Gen. QuantumT   vs    Gen. LongDono
Hard to know what to expect here. It looks like they'll be taking 5 cards from 3 decks that lost and we don't know which ones. They might have enough flexibility to try to counter what we did last time, so we should do something different, but I'd still use lots of air creatures. Maybe we should plan based on their last intact deck? They'll probably use black holes again, so bring sanctuaries.

Neopergoss   vs    Gen. coinich
I want BBs, RTs, antimatter -- forms of CC that ignore health. They have a lot of light dragons. Will post a deck in the decks section. It's good for us to use rainbow because they have discords. It would also be good for us to kill them with poison, since they have a lot of antimatter. Arsenic, poison, and maybe even some salvaged scorpions could be used. Can fly arsenics, too.

Gen. Jen-i   vs    tttt
I would think that we can probably take something similar to what was used before. Can they counter it? LifeLockable is in a good position to suggest tweaks to it since he used it before. Their deck choices will be even more limited this time.

Initial, tentative post. Looks tough to fight 3 generals in 4 matches, but time, air, and especially light's decks are there for us to see, so they should be a walk in the park. Considering the event card, we might bring 6 extra cards to some matches and plan to lose the first duel and then adjust and win the second two. Of course, they could do the same thing.

3 generals

has a very small vault, unfortunately the event card kinda screws us, as they can use a semi-different deck every game.

[Neopergoss]

Against air: RTs, steals, deflags, BBs, and momentum all seem like they would be useful, in addition to the sancs and flying creatures I mentioned. There is some risk of EQ, too, so EAs and novas/immos might be useful. Maybe something like the immo deck? But that might be an overreaction to the possibility of EQs. Thoughts?

edit: no, then we couldn't use sancs. Well, some kind of rainbow with those sorts of cards. Pulvy would be good to have, too.

I suggest you dont use it...the deck was slow and I got alot of bad draws with it....plus growth creature vs time isnt very good...I was extremly lucky he didnt get that eternity as he could have locked me down period that game, but I would bring purify as that saved my life...no matter what deck you use unless it isnt a rainbow

but they dont have alot left in their vault...they might actually suicide, but who can predict anything like that?

also I have a suggestion for aether....didnt he say in that thread that the poison deck long used before put the fear of god in him? what about we give them what they want?


They definitely wont suicide as they have fractal scarabs left. what counters fractal scarabs?

[Neopergoss]

Well ordinarily I'd say titanium shield, but it will be far less effective if they use upped scarabs. Definitely nightmare would be good vs fractal.

[Sevs]

Dammit sorry Life I accidently press Modify instead of Quote. and the next screen looks the same too.

[LifeLockable]

no problem...what about a deny deck vs fractal?

[ShiningSword]

Time's deck has plenty of CC(scarabs give for 6 uses of devour) and 2 purifies for poison, so how about using quinted attackers?
Air is a good place to put RT's, because of their flying weapons, that and BH prevention are my only ideas.
I think we should have a good denial/Control against light(plenty of PC will be useful against possible sancs, and to steal discords if we have a chance). Having an eternity would be useful in more than one scenario. It is our best matchup for antimatter, i would say.
  is as always a bad match(their vault is too darn big), maybe an air/death stall, but with bonewalls instead of wings, and plenty of EE(to act as fueling), arsenic and FWs. We could outrush if they use an immortal deck, or stall a mortal rush(im not sure if the quanta would be enough for an early defence, but it deserves being tested). Fractal could give us troubles, but it isnt highly viable in unupped(phoenixes and frogs are out of the table, devourers arent used a lot against us because of QPs).

[LongDono]

Sorry I have been inactive, RL stuff. When I awake tomorrow I can catch up on eveything. Don't wait on my approval to do something.

[Aitvaras]

Ok I removed both decks lost (all 35 cards) from vault so any cards not discarded or salvaged can be added to that. I am not sure I will be available to do this if the salvaging isnt decided on in the next couple of hours. Dont know who jumped in last time but afraid you'll have to do it again, can't do the vault if the salvaging is'nt finished.

[LongDono]

Lets kick this into overdrive! I will play an immo rush this round! Now we have to find T4's deck, and then double check everything!
