Yay! 2k Electrum... 1,33 upgraded cards, and I upgraded 9 for this tourney

But it was fun

[Vineroz]

Congratulations to Asinickle as he led the Armedilgos to the glory! The chief of Armedilgos had decided to award a special trophy:

[Dm]

I didn't face anything similar to my decks ( except for the darkness one, but mine still offers more versatility) the whole tournament.

Decks in order of use.

Spoiler for Pharaoh:

Apparently, no one decided to use it. I won one with it and lost another, so I decided to scrap it; in both times, it had slow draws.

Spoiler for Popsickles/Frozenmagiopult:

I recall using this in trials with relatively low success. It finally decided to work here, so I went with it. It got me an amazing record of 6-1, the versatility making up for flaws such as Permanent Control. Three games I can recall with it were against Marsu, where I won with exact damage of two armagios and one in field; one against Vangelios, where he reminded me that Earthquake wasn't banned and made me use Freeze on his creatures and win with a single overdriven Armagio, and the best one against Marvaddin - Overdriven Armagio + Freeze + Catapult left him at an exact 1 HP; the only loss of this deck.
As has been mentioned, I'm absolutely hopeless and still have no idea what the hell is the damage of a 30 hp creature with freeze.

Spoiler for Darkness..with a Twist.:

Most people in darkness went straight for steal because of the simplicity of Permanent Control. I went a tad bit beyond and decided to get Voodoo Dolls. The Gravity Force can be used both on the opponent or on myself, for damage boosts (It usually worked as the latter, as Elite Magios have low damage). Overdrive could also be used on Voodoo itself, although I think I only did it once. I think I went 2-1 with this deck. Only lost at the very end, against Asinickle.

Spoiler for This was never supposed to be serious.:

Aether. I hated using it, and I honestly didn't even think of the idea until I was fighting Marvaddin and we both decided to speedbuild our last match for the hell of it. Boom, this just popped up in my mind. I used one variation of this with another electrocutor and a gravity shield, but since I disliked it so much, I only used it three times. A score of 2-1; lost against catapult.  Good versatility of the Lobo + PU makes up for most of it and allows my own armagios to be used as meatwalls.

[Asinickle]

The decks I used:
My main deck. I had thought that electrocuter was going to be the most op thing ever, so I had 5 of them originally. Modified them as the tournament went on. Probably could have still done with another twin universe.

Good performance and decks, Asin, especially for someone new. Given time, I expect you to become a fairly good player.

[TribalTrouble]

Although I lost, might as well post one deck I used.

Might as well post what I thought was one of my funner decks and was the first one I used. 0 Testing with this, just something I speedbuilt with a couple minutes left until the start of the tourny.

I call it 'Armedilgo Nightmares!'

I had to take care of some family issues and was late coming back, so I missed the tourney.  I built these three decks in advance for it. 

Rock Hard Dilgo (40 card pulvy/SS stall)

I expected that pulverizer would be useful because I was expecting shields, particularly gravity shield and dimensional shield.  Gravity shields could've taken care of most creatures, wardens could've taken care of anything momentumed, and stoneskins would help protect against catapults an.

Mindgated! (grav/aether duo, gate for gravity opps will surely use, TU for OD dilgo, electrocutor for momentum/dilgo/wardens)

Like Asinickle mentioned, Lobotomizer appeared to be an excellent choice, and TU overdriven creatures can be quite good; the opponent never knows for sure when you're going to pull it out.  The mindgates were a little silly, but knowing that everyone would have to be using gravity guaranteed that they would've been quite useful, and I figured there would probably be a lot of aether as well.

Quite similar in many respects to the first deck, only with more healing and less control.  I see that ZsoZso used something very similar, with slightly different numbers of copies of some cards, but mostly the same.

[Dm]

Wait wait wait. You had ONE trebuchet in that life deck and you still managed to get it off second turn against me?

What the holy RNG. =P
