This means, I lost the game due to bad RNG. But there was no opponent to lose against.

This went 2-0.
Used this in finals to counter yee's UG deck, since I didn't feel confident in Pharaohs against it(Rage Potions, Thunderstorms, UGs baaaaad), won a mirror against a other monofire and against the UG deck.

I think pretty much everyone had the same set of decks today.  Even in the two rounds I was in, it was all pretty much the same.

monofire (1-0)

I couldn't think of anything else when building that would be even close to competitive.  I didn't really like the cardset, as it lent itself far too much to fire decks this week.

[glennfoo]

When the speedbuilding starts, players go for monofire since they do not have time to figure out good decks. then as the match progress, they thought of pharaoh deck or thunderstorm deck to counter monofire. and as it progress unstable gas deck with lots of cc is made to counter pharaoh deck, although it comes slightly later. many players lost as a result of cointoss in mirror match.

[Jen-i]

hmm I like your analysis glenfoo it makes good sense - something must be broke in my head though I never came up with the monofire deck
