Final Battle (Trials 1)

[acelink]

Maybe I'm just an idiot, but will someone fill me on how Ace's deck could have possibly beaten Units?

My deck relied a majority on controlling the battle field.  Pests attempted to slow down the pace of battle--crippling the ability to just "splash" other elements.  I stole/destroyed all of his weapons, shields and unstable gasses.  Any creatures he played I killed with a EE/OE.  (only takes two shots to kill an unupgraded air dragon)

There was also the factor of upgraded cards.  I used 18 in all of my games. Unit only was able to use upto eight upgraded cards and he doesn't have a lot of upgraded cards.  The difference between towers and pillars is HUGE.

Congrats Acelink. Now that makes 5 new masters with 3 matches to go.

Nah... There was not a lot you could do.  My deck was specialized to fight a 50% air deck.  There are few things you could of done to stop my deck.  The best air deck verse it would of been a mono air dragon rush with shockwaves.  No permanents aside from pillars. 12 pillars, 6 shockwaves, 6 dragons, 6 damselflies.

A mono-air deck is really weak.  It has little protection and not a lot of damage although it has a bit of creature control.  Its strength comes with the synergies it makes.  (FFQ, Air/Light, Air/Water, Air/Fire etc).  My deck was built to shut down most of those...

You would of done better if you had more upgraded cards but I doubt it would of changed the outcome.

I could probably do the battle this weekend. I'm GMT -7. SG, you said more time slots will be available?

"probably"?

Just talk to miniwally and make it happen. Doesn't matter when it happens, as long as it gets done. Shouldn't be impossible to organize one PvP battle in 9-10 days.

It's easy. Go to chat and fight. That's it.

Bottom line is that there's no "probably" here. If it doesn't happen this weekend, I'll take that as forfeit because we need to move on to War event.

Congratz Acelink. No wonder you are Ace.

And good job Unit also.

Ah, xdude said he couldn't do it this weekend. He said Monday would be free I think, can we have a bit of leeway?

I have to say I'm not very happy about this lack of communication. It's the responsibility of both the Master and the challenger to make the fight happen, and if it doesn't happen, I need to know about it.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do in this situation because I had no idea it would go to this seeing everyone had plenty of time to organize one battle. Hopefully you guys can finish it on Monday.

well the timezone diffrence could be a problem for some, me and glitch got lucky, we were in the same timezone.

[Antagon]

it COULD be a problem, but as master or wannabe-master, everyone should be able to manage that, there is/was enough time, in my opinion.
