[Trials 7 - Challengers] [Time] Kuroaitou 3-1 [Time] Cheesy111

[Kuroaitou]

Good games Cheesy; RNG favored me more this time around due to topdeck. Sorry about that...

Decks Game summaries will be revealed in a bit:

We both have Aether. Okay. I plop down a ghost, but he bolts it immediately. Whoops. I try to play more conservatively later, feigning a Fractal deck, only to PU his Golden Nymph on the hopeful chance he didn't have Reverse Time. Luckily, he didn't, and while he had several Lightnings in his hand to take out the Nymph clone I copied, I had PU and Shards of Wisdom ready to implement on a fateful dragon draw. I topdecked just in time to beat his Devonian Dragon and Nymph combo, throwing two Wisdoms and a PU on the same dragon for a whopping 36 damage. Lucky me. ^^; 1-0

Shards of Readiness for immortality. What's immortality to deck out? What's a deck out to Eternity? What's an Eternity to Poison? 1-1

I SCRAPED a win here. It's not even funny how close this match-up could have been had I not been savy with Miracle usage, the INSANELY incredible topdeck of Solar Shield, and careful usage of Eternity. Because he had an early Eternity/Ghost and I had a quanta shortage, I thought I was basically screwed until the shield came into play. I managed to time my Sundials correctly to get the best poison counter rack up to barely beat him, seeing as 2 Improved Miracles (which I thankfully drew from all the Hasten spam against his Reverse Time advantage) were just enough for the win. 2-1

Just threw something together at last minute; the two lone Ice Bolts I was tempted to replace with Purify, but given our limited options to poison (plus he already used Death, Aether (Shard of Wisdom), and had no access to Light (Blessing) or Gravity (Momentum), I prayed he wouldn't use Entropy against me. Toadfishes were surprisingly fast during this match-up, although I think it was because top-deck RNG favored me far more than Cheesy (he had a literal 1 pendulum start, while I had a plethora of quanta at my disposal...  .). 3-1


Good games Cheesy111.

I get very little quanta.  Kuro wins, splashing water for what now seems to be no reason.
