WAR #10 Round 12 The metaphorical light at the end of the tunnel is almost visible to all the warriors. They are close to seeing the final team fall and the winning team emerge.	Read the War Rules Contact Warmasters News 4 teams remain, and the stakes start to increase!
Deckbuilding Duel phase has started 19/11/2016 0000 GMT Teams have to build decks for all players who are fighting during this round. All team members participate in the planning. Please do not post your decks in public or talk about them in chat. All decks must be made ready before the timer goes to zero, after which, editing decks is strictly forbidden. Failure to have all of the decks ready will lead to a severe card penalty and/or automatic losses. It is highly recommended that all team members double-check their decks before the duels start.	Duels Fighting ends! 22/11/2016 0000 GMT Duel phase starts when deckbuilding ends. PM your opponent and try to find a suitable time. Time Zone Converter might be useful here. If you cannot find a time when you both are online, please contact Warmasters--mathman101 and Physsion--immediately. If the match does not happen, you both lose by default unless one of you is clearly more active and flexible. Duels are "best-of-five", you must use the deck and mark built during the previous phase, and you cannot make any changes to your deck or mark during the round. Please make sure to record your duels as shown in the Rules: (Air Gen) KingKiller 3 - 1 (Water Lt) LordOwner (Air Sld) KingKiller 3 - 1 (Water Gen) LordOwner (Air Lt) KingKiller 3 - 1 (Water Sld) (Sub) LordOwner (SUB indicates that someone else played instead of LordOwner)

Is the sideboard simply adding 2 cards into the deck? Or subbing in up to 2 (potentially) useless cards for up to 2 (potentially) useful cards?

[JonathanCrazyJ]

We keep any sideboarded cards for the remainder of a match, correct?

[majofa]

We can only use cards from decks we've already played?

[worldwideweb3]

After each game, is our deck reset to original? Like, G1 loss, we sideboard. G2 win. in G3 do we use original deck or the 2 sideboard deck. If we lose G2, then can we have further 2 sideboard cards?

[mathman101]

Is the sideboard simply adding 2 cards into the deck? Or subbing in up to 2 (potentially) useless cards for up to 2 (potentially) useful cards?

The former. You are just adding in the 2 extra cards, you may not remove any cards from your original.

We keep any sideboarded cards for the remainder of a match, correct?

No, the deck is reset to your original deck after each game.

We can only use cards from decks we've already played?

Cards can come from any of the other decks you have made for this round. This is to not force schedule issues and teams trying to schedule their matches in a specific order.

After each game, is our deck reset to original? Like, G1 loss, we sideboard. G2 win. in G3 do we use original deck or the 2 sideboard deck. If we lose G2, then can we have further 2 sideboard cards?

Reset to original correct.  If you lose G1, then in G2 you may sideboard. If you win G2, then G3 goes back to your original. If you lose G2, then G3 you may add sideboard into your original deck.

[kaempfer13]

Can we sideboard from a different deck after the 2nd loss?

[Afdarenty]

Can we redistribute upgrades from our main deck to the EC sideboard cards, and if so, do we still need 4 in element upgrades? Or are the EC sideboard cards always unupgraded?

After we add the EC sideboard cards, does the deck still need to be 50% in element?

[mathman101]

Can we sideboard from a different deck after the 2nd loss?

Yes you may choose a different deck after your 2nd loss.

Can we redistribute upgrades from our main deck to the EC sideboard cards, and if so, do we still need 4 in element upgrades? Or are the EC sideboard cards always unupgraded?

After we add the EC sideboard cards, does the deck still need to be 50% in element?

You must always have 4 in element ups, and must always have 50% in-element.
You may not redistribute your upgrades, as you are not removing any of the cards from the original deck. The only exception to this is the sideboard role per it's rules, if you remove an upgraded card you may reallocate an upgrade to elsewhere in the deck including an EC sideboard card. (remembering the 4 in-element rule)

what if we wanna sideboard an upped card? do we change it to unupped? Also, it's not compulsory right?

[mathman101]

Correct, if you choose an upped card for the EC sideboard it is brought in as the unupped copy.
Correct, this is not a mandatory EC card.
