My bet:
:entropy :death :light :time :gravity :life :darkness :air :earth :water :fire :aether
Standings:
:entropy :death :fire :air :light :life :aether :darkness :gravity :water :time :earth

It seems that I won't go further than the third position. :light just need to overcome :fire and :air which shouldn't be a too big deal for them (I hope). For the forth position with :time, I'm pretty screwed (sorry guys).

Think your bet is off? I bet Entropy first, with Earth second. Absolutely failtacular. :))

6 rounds in, and the first team has been eliminated. This is when you can start to compare the standings to the bets. While we could have a comeback (War #1 Entropy), or another harsh loss (Death...ouch.)

" :death  :water  :entropy  :earth  :time  :air  :fire  :light  :gravity  :aether  :life  :darkness  "
And the standings
 :entropy :fire :air :light  :life  :death ( :underworld:earth :aether :time :gravity :darkness :water

Bye shards. The prediction seemed pretty solid when I made it.
Death had MrBlonde, Malduk, Coinich and other people who could be relied on not going AWOL or doing a rotface. Both MrBlonde and Coinch's decks for the final battle seemed creative and solid, and MrBlonde had done well in the Masters tourney. Death had pulled in 4th last time, with what was thought a weak element, and I figured they'd only get better. (Round 6 said otherwise...damn)
Water, I just liked the lineup. Essence, a creative deckbuilder, Nilsie and RR. Seemed a very solid team, and I figured an element like water would pull itself together, since it can do pretty well in pvp most of the time. However, when vaults are dictated by cards, it means 30 card decks are encouraged. To field many stalls is probably too taxing.
Entropy I put down a few places from my original, since I figured that Death and Water would just do better. Guess who feels stupid now huh? Entropy is playing a great game. I don't like all of it - I am sure the names Zeru, Nyma and Valimont are all being vividly cursed in the other elements secret sections, all for very different reasons.

Since my bet now is screwed: Go Air! (and Death, but we all knew that was coming anyway)

I for one, have no reasons to curse. I fully support :entropy going 2nd because they deserve it with great PvP skills and their efforts at intelligence/preparations and stuff.
I support Zeru, since he is my compatriot.
I support Sir Valimont, since I've had a nice chat about boycotts with him. Seems like a great mind, with poor rhetoric skills.
I don't know other :entropy players, but whatevah, they deserve some love too :P



As for my bet,
:time :light :entropy :earth :darkness :gravity :death :aether :life :air :water :fire
So far it looks good. :light certainly stands a chance of getting 2nd, and :entropy is also well guessed. :earth and :darkness may be a little disappointing, but they still have a chance to come back. I almost guessed :water, but it seems it will have to switch places with :fire... and still :fire won't die out so quickly... and that's not a bad thing either. I don't really care if they go 12th, or not, as long as they don't win another war. That would be boring. :air is also doing better than I guessed, but I won't support them during this round, since we are fighting one :air player :P
I will support them every round we are not facing them, since they are doing a great job at showing that :air is not weak.
As for :time... I'm not going to state the obvious.
<waiting for shards>
May the force of the D4HK side be with U ^_^

You win 8 upped shards if you go back to before the war started, and make a bet in the bets thread.

Maybe Xinef can help you with that :P

But I bet (pun intended) there'll be another bidding next war, new war, new masters, new odds!

Wow, looks rather solid. Of course, unless gravity and earth pull a time, my bet's not gonna make it past 2nd place, but whatever.
