I was VERY lucky. I always got the card I needed in my hand; two bolts for two dragons, 3 phoenixes to beat him down and a deflag for his fahren. I drew 2 shards though.

Epic hand: photon-immo-phoenix-immo-golem first turn. I also had two BBs in my starting hand which proved useful for disabling his dragons.

Another first turn phoenix but with a dagger instead of golem. The dagger disabled one of his phoenixes and my BB took care of his dragon. I got scared when he pulled out his Fahrenheit, but luckily he had immolations in his hand, not bolts.
Good games here too, Antagon! Luck was with me today.

exspected the deck, he used 2nd and 3rd, from the start, in tests my first deck was always about 60/40 winning, but starting game is a great advantage, this envoirement. the problem also was, that my supernova strength and any other stylecard is pretty useless here for me (photon cause with his massive cc, i dont want to have card disadvantage), so i decided to rush with fh+dragons for massive damage, and still upgraded phoenix' for moderate damage and fodder. also the immos for fast build and to work against bb and with fh (and even more dragons). if i could decide, what to play, again, i dont think ill make major changes. but - as it seems - no luck for me today, at least i knew, it will be a tough matchup.

first game he could use all his cards at hand every time, and i had a bad start, without pillars. second game he went first and has a nearly perfect hand, 3rd game i went first and he won with 5hp left, my fh came far too late and i had about 7 pillars after 4 turns out.
