LOST - Tempora: I made a calculated decision to not ban Discord in this match - it bit me in the rear here.

LOST - Misted Down: I swapped the Rains for Rage Pots. Didn't change the fact that this was my least-balanced deck in Phase 2 and I got killed again.

WON - Rippler: Remember the part where I chose not the ban Discord in this match? Yeah, this is why. Even without an early Discord, he didn't do much to me, and once I got it out, it was game over. Also curse TrOs for not letting me upgrade that fourth Discord, because it's driving me crazy.

WON - Serpentine: The beast takes its fourth victim. I got a Poseidon, knocked down all his quanta, and cruised to the win.

WON - Neon: I figured that this was my best option. He played a Fire duo and double-Raged my first Crawler, and I was ready to take the loss, when I drew a Crawler, slapped a Fractal on it, and waited a couple turns. He then topdecked a Minor Phoenix to leave me at 1 HP and my heart finally came to rest.

Very good games Sci!

Pretty solid, just slapped down 3 entropy pendulums first turn, Discord the next.  Dwindled him down and took pot shots with my Black Holes.

Though my Otyughs ended up being useless (I don't think I thought that part through), but the Bonewalls coupled with my Gravity Force induced creature deaths, I managed a win.

I totally did not pack enough quanta.  OOPS! So, yeah, bad quanta start, on top of his Discord, I was finished easily.

A pillar-advantage deck against a counter-pillar deck.  Nuff said.

I fixed the quanta problem from my first fire deck and decided to use it again, having two fire usages.  Very close game, as I hoped to top deck a Rage to boost my Momentum'd Fire Eater, but busted with a Minor Phoenix.
