:underworld Gen. LongDono   vs   :aether willng3 -- We can expect them to take advantage of our biggest vulnerabilities. Then again, they might be aware that we could go mono a lot more easily now. I'd say we just throw something like the immorush at them (though I don't like the idea of upgrading the phoenixes). I have a modded immorush that I like and will post.
:fire Gen. Napalm Grenade   vs   :underworld Lt. Sevs -- Fire reliably rushes. I would be shocked to see anything else. They will also throw in some control. I'm thinking flying OE's would be great to have in a deck with air pends. Maybe a light/air deck like the one Quantuum T used on me? Not sure that fits with vault + salvaging, but I will look into it. I like phaedrus' idea of saders, that could fit in with this too.
:underworld LifeLockable   vs   :earth Gen. Kakerlake -- Nice recon, Life. Looks like the major threats they have available are EQ, RT, OE, and AM. Discord could be trouble for a mono, but they aren't likely to bring it. For that reason, I think AM is also unlikely. Wings will be good because they are earthbound, so to speak (they have very few flying creatures). Out of all those decks, they haven't used EQ much, surprisingly (only 3 EQs in all of those decks). There are about 15 cards that we didn't account for, though. Risk of RT seems to preclude the immo deck. I liked the look of the deck sevs posted. I will post one shortly with a few tweaks, will be looking forward to feedback.

Against  :earth we cannot use immo for fear of the rewinds, cannot use a quantum heavy deck  because of the EQ's and the fact we dont have EA's and we cannot rbing air death because of the titanium shield. we sort of have to use a strange bow. wings are the best stall because GOTP and grabs are not flying. quinted forest spirits or dune scorps are the best solutions for attack. Possibly stick eternity to give a better chance against the immortal.

 :aether just got a huge relief on the pendulumpillar conversions because of that 8-0 round and the event card so expect to see them at full force. I think they bring EQ's again because of how badly it affected it us last round. we need a cheap bow with some sort of defense. We can salvage 3 dim shields if you want.

 :fire  i think phoenix's :P who wouldnt. but has anyone thought of what could counter fire and their cc pc and creature abundance? to be honest i draw a blank but outrushing. I will have to look into some of the decks they have played.

 :earth seriously worries me because they can bring three things to the table...a rush a stall and a control deck...I think we are most likely to see control from them simply because it works against us...i like the cheap bow that was posted I will try that deck out for a spin

 :fire is my least favorite element to play against period :o because like everytime I play someone with fire they play a counter to what I'm doing at the time LOL...as for team fire I havent played against them much so I really have nothing for you

 :aether is the most unpredictable opponent in the war simply becaue their vault is huge and they know ours basically...i think the air/poison deck should be used against them simply because they fear it apparently...thats basically all i can say

They feared it last round because they made a gamble that we wouldn't play it. Not sure they will make the same gamble next time. I think the immorush would work better, but that's just me.

Wait if life plays right even if they do risk EQ's a Qp deck can still win.
A: Novas.
B: Have air mark so you can play CC and/or wings off the mark. This allows you to slow play pillers. ( God I wish Sevs or me were playing Kaker, I would use the upped cards to advantage and play a rainbow anyways. Upped and unupped pillers go into different piles. lol )

Anyways Earth is a wildcard this round, and Aether..... God I have no idea, I just know I will find victory. ^^
