1st: Wyand
2nd: Linkcat
3rd: DoubleCapitals
4th: DoctorC and deuce22

You may post your decks now.

Spoiler for Hidden:

Deuce had to leave due to work, Doc subbed him from R2.

Tiebreaker situation: 3 players had 2/1 win/loss matches, and also 1 match wins against other tiebreaker participants.

Wyand 5-3 (win/loss)
Linkcat 4-2
DoubleCapitals 4-3

Also excuse-moi for the slow start, couldn't exclude Nymphs with serp's randomiser, had to use another, slower route.

[Wyand]

Discord, Dims, Sundial, Devs, Ghostmare, SoFree available... and lots of stall cards and not that much damage.

2-1 vs. deuce

1-0 SoGstall vs. SoFree Owls

Got lucky with CC. VERY LUCKY. He had 3 SoFrees on and at starters I hurled Chaos Seed + double Shockwave at him. ALL worked. And the CS RT'd the 1st OE...
1,56% chance for triple CC hitting and 1/11 for the RT... that's together like 0,14%... Who would have thought I can have such rng?? I was able to grab
the win from there (early SoGs helped also).

1-1 DevTal vs. DragonTal Silence

Well I thought he plays DevTal, too. So I quickly deployed my only dev in hand. Which he fractalled a few turns later, thus deciding the game...
Ironically I had 1 quanta missing to do a fractal+silence trick, instead of that I faced that silence and my dev got fractalled next turn...
Deuce mentioned that with more patience (not playing the dev) it is my game, which pretty much means that he haven't got any Devs
in the deck... Lesson learnt.

2-1 Another SoGstall vs. Disco AbomTal Silence

Got early SoGs again, that helped a lot. Sadly I couldn't snatch a Disco through my Mindgate (tbh haven't drawn anything really useful, was pretty low
on quanta to use Fractal, though I used a Silence). In the endgame deuce had to quit. It was fairly an 50-50% chance from there,
Silence+Fractal is pretty strong even with multiple SoGs on. Added Owl to have some chance against Silence as well, though I knew that 3 damage
isn't a big difference. Should have added a Flying Weapons as well. Plague/TS were there if SoFree comes again.

1-2 vs. DoubleCapitals

0-1 Disco AbomTal Silence

Tried deuce's previous deck myself. It could have been closer, but did not have a Disco in hand, and DC playing an early Wings. After that (5 turns) I was able
to trick his quanta successfully. But due to ppm-trolling (had 5pill/10pend in deck, got only 1 pillar and 7 pend...) lagged behind and couldn't squeeze
out enough damage before the next Wings arrived (I silence-chained him before that - could have done another silence to elongate my suffering by 1 turn,
because in that case Wings shuts down my damage 1 turn later).

1-1 SoGstall BW vs. DevTal

Had an incredible start: 2 bone pillars + 1 quantum pillar. Look at the deck: I had 2 bps altogether... DC started with 2 devs, then he stole both of my qps
(I had the another one T2ish)... -.- But in the meantime I plagued the devs (how poetic, plaguing pests), so that stabilized things. SoGs healed back nicely the
soon-arriving Dragon duo's damage. That was the simplest SoGstall game I think (not bragging, devs just suffer against qps).

1-2 Disco Abo SoG/Heal vs. Mono Entropy

Maybe a bit much SoG? Who knows. But my hand failed trollishly: won toss, but got only 2 pends, so DC was able to deploy Disco sooner.
I lagged behind with that by 2 turns. Smart inclusion of Cat/Muta by DC to further push the damage of the deck. Nevertheless I felt that
I'm not getting enough heal this time: my 2 SoGs weren't enough and the 2 extra Heals only delayed my loss by 2 turns (getting only 4 of them
from 18 cards is a bit sub-par). So I lost by 1 turn again. (Not talking about quanta: 9 pends and no pillars again -.- . This slowed by damage.)

2-0 vs. Linkcat

1-0 DevTal vs. SoFree Owls

Cannot complain here, got a really nice hand. Started with 2 Devs and when Fractal ducked (1 put in an extra copy just to be sure!) I was able to
delay him with a Silence. Clutched Fractal next turn, safe cruise.

2-0 SoGstall BW vs. Ghostal Silence

I was poking fun at the start, telling Link it is SoW Dunes or Eggtal. Ofc it was Ghostal, and I must believe Link when he said the he misplayed hard,
and lost due to that. After he left the game I was able to beat the AI by 1 turn... (it deckouted). Though I think I pretty much played everything well:
Plague+BW+Owl helped a lot. Fractal+Silence was really the cure against stalls in this meta. But this time I got lucky or my opponents misplayed/had to go/played devtal
against my SoGstalls.

I hope your eyes didn't bleed out due to these unoptimized SoGstalls.
