Weekly Tournament - July 12th - Magician Spells - Unupgraded

[glennfoo]

am I the only one that thought of the dazzling dolls?
I didn't have time to join, but I thought it'd be pretty obvious to do...

depends on playstyle. I do not usually favor decks that need too luck dependent combos. What is dazzling doll by the way? bb gravity doll?

This is dazzling dolls.  I have it in my decklist but rarely play it.

The main deck I played was this antimatter stall.  Did pretty well, but got a poor quanta draw vs. Glenn.  Mostly my fault for making such a big deck.

I would say that in general, most players currently run 30-35 card decks most of the time, but in a tournament like this where deckout wins and long stalls seemed like a very real possibility, running larger decks seemed required.

All of my decks were duos with one element mostly run off the mark, and I tended to focus on the cheaper magician spells (chaos/dry spell/holy light/SoBr).  My firestall lacked focus - it was trying to be a rush and trying to be a stall at the same time, which didn't really work out.  Would probably have done better as a 35 card monofire rush with 6 HLs off a light mark.  I never ran my NT deck, but I'm curious if anyone tried one?
