5th Trials - [Time] Kuroaitou 3 - 1 PlayerOa [Time] [TIEBREAKER]

[Kuroaitou]

Oof... quite a battle indeed. ^^; (EDIT: I hope these decks are in the right order... hm)
Game 1:

Yes... I decided to go with a nasty Fire-Time duo in the beginning, thinking that without Steal, I can at least take care of other nasty permanents. Turns out as I was right; after gathering the necessary quanta, I was able to Deflag his [] and [] with ease, and let my Ghost army swarm the field (alongside Eternity and my ever so elusive Golden Nymph). I was able to throw a few Rage Potions against his [] as well, burning them and sealing off a strong start of duel with 1-0.

Nasty early Discord followed by a second-to-last (or was it last?) turn Antimatter on his [] made him unable to play his cards effectively or as efficiently as I could. I got really lucky with this deck to be honest, because my starting hand was also pretty awesome compared to his. ^^; 2-0

Cloak spam fails hardcore against a deck that focuses more on rushing with []. Awkward starting hand (few quanta sources I think) also caused problems. 2-1

I went with a more traditional approach with this deck, using Lightnings to kill any [] or [], with Procrastination and Eternity serving as indirect/soft CC against other creatures should he spam them against me. The Anubis really weren't that helpful to begin with, but I did manage to play one AND immortalize it before the game ended. 3-1

We are playing too, you know ^^

No game to game summary this time neither, to keep the decks secret 'till Phase 2 is over.
...except game 4, where RNG was weird enough.

Oh I know we're fighting , but I have a TOTALLY different set of decks for them anyway, considering their element is dramatically different. No worries there.

Okay, so we had a tiebreaker and I won 3-1.

Everyone loves an early Discord. Well, the person who plays it first does, at least. XD Antimatters only compounded the problem because he didn't have enough [] to [] [] and stop the healing. Granted, I had a pretty good hand when I opened, so it was only a matter of time that til I got him. 1-0

Early Procrastination + Poison pretty much worked him over. I think Player also had a bad starting hand which made this battle go a little too fast. 2-0

Lightnings generally worked against [], but I found myself taking small bits of damage from his [], which I couldn't get rid of. It was frustrating, to say the least, when I found myself trying to push an offensive against him that would not work against his [], but I figure I would try it considering that he wasn't playing that many [] in the previous games. 2-1

Surprisingly, I managed to top deck BOTH of my Deflagrations within the first few turns, but I had no pendulums in play to help create some . However, I was able to remove his [] and [] from the field once I got the accumulated 3 ; Rage Potions never came, but I figured I didn't need any considering the also early Eternity worked as CC. 3-1

Good games PlayerOa!
