StrategyThis post will gather all the info we can squeeze out of our opponents.
Team AetherDecks:4 - Fractix: Deflag, Dimensional Shield, Phoenixes and Fractals. You know how it works, prepare yourself! Also won in R2 + R3
3 - PU dragons: Works with alot of dragons. Air, with wings, or darkness with steals and LS.
4 - Aether/Earth duo: EQ, Graboids, PU, Lightnings, maybe Dim Shields. (Won vs us in R2!!) Test this!
2 - Bonebolt - Poison, Bonewall and Lightnings. Could work with Dim Shields also. Unlikely vs water, also lost in R1, R2 and R3. Won in R3.
2 - Death/Aether duo: Fractal mummies + Bonewall and Poison. Variation used in R2.
2 - Aether/Light Stall: Sancs, Miracle, Dim. Shield + Lightnings. Good deck but fails vs Trident and Steams/Deflags. Won in round 2.
4 - Devtal: No need to explain, this deck is dangerous! Test it! Won in R2 and R3!
2 - Novabow: Graboids, Deflags, Arsenic and a bunch of lightnings. Always Dangerous. Lost in R2 and R3.
0 - Mono Aether: This just failed hard for them in round 1. Get's countered by Steams, Trident and alot more.
2 - Immophoenix: Immolation, Phoenixes and Lightning.
2 - Fracharge: Lost in R3 but they can rebuild. They are unlikely to try it again after last time's failure.
Tactics:- Fractix isn't that awesome vs us, esp not when they can use only 3 MP's. It's still a great deck and fire has alot of flexibility.
- I predict Devtal, prepare for that!
- They fear our CC, wich makes novabows less likely? They also likely lost a fair ammount of their novadeck.
- We have to make sure we beat that PU Shrieker deck... Man do I hate that deck.
- I don't think we have to pack a purify.
Team AirDecks:Tactics:
Team DarknessDecks:2 - Mono Darkness: Steals, Drain Life, Vamps, Devourers, Eclipse, Drains. We know what to expect, lost in R2.
2 - Vader Sader: They have seen how we handle weapon decks, and our CC is great.
2 - Adrenavamps: Combined with cloak, failed them last round. Haven't seen it around this war...
3 - Accelled Voodoo: Heal back the damage or find a way from keeping those Voodoo's from hitting through our shield, test it! Lost in R3.
4 - GotP Nightmare: Strong deck wich has won before. Prepare for Rewinds, Steals and Nightmare. Won in R2 + R3
3 - Denialbow: It's a basic novabow with devourers and EQ's.
4 - Aether/Darkness duo: dark creatures + fractal/PU or dark creatures + dim shield. This includes devtal and dragontal. Won in R2 + R3.
3 - Denial: EQ + Devourers can obviously lock us down. This deck is always a threat. Test it imo.
2 - Novabow: Novabows are always fast and quite versatile. The darkness version with gargs and LS isn't that problematic though. Lost in R1! Won in R3.
0 - Poisonstall: Bonewalls, Poison and Parasites. Lost in R1 + R2 + R3 and they won't use it vs us.
2 - Vader Sader: Fine deck but it lost in round 2. Dunno if they have more light cards to fill up the gaps.
Tactics:- I'm sick and tired of dusk shield and they will use it in pretty much every match. Can I please, please poisonrush em?
- TorB builds fancy decks, but looking at last war there were several decks he used every round! We might be able to assume they don't rotate much and use what's worked before? PU Dragons, Devtal or Ghostmare.
- We should prepare for
decks. A PU Dragon + LS deck beat us last round and we all know TorB loves Devtal. Both of these won in R2.
- GotP/Nightmare proved it's worth in R2. Test vs this please! We should be able to counter this easily with enough CC. They know this so I don't expect them to use it against us (lost last war vs us aswell and TorB knows this).
Team DeathDecks:2 - Big ass stalls: As seen in R1. I have no idea where they were going with those stalls, just make sure you can beat em!
4 - Bonebolt: This deck is strong. Strong. Horribly strong.
1 - Speed Poison: Uuuuh. This gets destroyed by purify, easily.
4 - Fractal Recluses: Blonde is a fan of this.
3 - Pandebonium: This works good. Won in R2. Unlikely vs Purify unless they make it 40+ cards again.
2 - DBH Trio: It could be a fun one. The deck is quite clumsy and risky. Haven't seen it yet this war.
3 - Novabow: Death Novabow killed us before in R2.
Tactics:- They build alot of basic
decks in R2 (combined with either Eclipse, Vamp Dagger, Wings, Rewinds, Titan, Gravity Pull or EQ's) Test our deck vs these a few times to be safe from the basic death decks.
- How about we pull a fractal crawler deck to break through the bonewalls? We need either lightnings or other CC to kill them mummies/graboids. Crawlers also survive lightning!
- I don't expect Pandebonium as much since they fear our Stalls and Purifies.
- Maybe add a dim shield to survive Fractal Recluses? We're facing a Lieutenant wich makes Fractal Recluses more likely imo.
Team EarthDecks:2 - Earth/Time Combo: RT, Graboids, Ghosts, EQ. Won and lost in R3. Still a strong deck imo.
2 - Earth/Air Combo: They got Wings, Shockwaves, EE. Won in R1, lost in R2. This owns Valkyrie.
3 - Immophoenix: combined with wardens/graboids/BB. Won in R3 and seems pretty strong. Test it!
4 - Novabows: Graboids, Fog, Lightning, Forest Spirit, Momentum. Won in R1+R2+R3, lost in R2.
2 - Earth/Fire Duo: Rage Pots, Steel Golems, Phoenixes and Deflags. They got quite a few fire cards. Won in R2
4 - The Immortal. They can stall us... alot! Test vs this. Won in R2 and R3.
4 - Earth/Aether Duo: Dim Shield, Lightning and PU/Fractal + Dragons, Steel golems or Graboids. Won in R2, lost in R3. Important to test!
1 - Poisonstall: Unlikely vs us. Won in R2.
3 - Firestall: Yep, they have a firestall! SS + Firebolt + Rage Pots. Won in R3. Very weak vs Trident unless they pack Deflags.
Tactics:- EQ/Trident owns two of their decks but fails completely vs Novabows?
Team EntropyDecks:Tactics:
Team FireDecks:3 - Immobow: Lost in R3. Won in R2. Weak vs RT and CC in general.
3 - Mono Fire: Phoenixes, CC, PC. Can be pretty fast and versatile.
3 - Firestall: Lost in R2 and R3, but they can rebuild. We lost vs a Light based Firestall previous round, so test properly!
2 - Novabow: lost in R2, twice.
1 - Poison/bolt Stall: They lost with a death duo in R2 (twice) and R3. Unlikely vs us.
0 - Water/Fire duo: Lost in R2. Based on Steam Machines and Squids, I don't think they will rebuild this.
Tactics:- Let's just pull out the old firebeater and slap them around a bit. Firebeater is easy on the vault and can break theyr rushes. It also has a good chance of winning.
- They know we have CC. We know their vault isn't that great. I expect to see Phoenixes vs us because of their durability. How do we counter those?
- I expect 3 decks: Mono Fire (cause it's easy to build with their vault), Firestall (cause it won vs us before) or Immorush.
- Fire only has to play 5 matches so I guess they can afford to play a stall (vaultwise).
Team GravityDecks:3 - Fracharge: Strong deck as always. Can break through our stalls. Test vs this.
3 - Dischole: You know how it works. Won in R1. Lost in R2, twice. Always test vs this deck when facing Gravity.
3 - CataTitans: Strong Deck, capable of breaking stalls and hurting us alot. Test vs this! Lost in R1 and R2.
3 - Acceleration decks: can be played with eitehr Voodoo's, Mercs, Titans or Armagio's. Test it.
1 - Poisonrush: Death Stalker, Momentum. No way they will use this vs Water right...?
1 - Poisonstall: Poison..... Stall....
3 - Novabow: Graboids, Gravity Pull and 3 Chargers. Might aswell test vs this since it won in R2, twice.
1 - Gravity/Earth duo: Deckout with oty's, wardens, pulvy, EQ's and gravy shield.
Tactics:- Gravity is still slow, can't we just rush em? But rush them properly this time!
- I be expecting Pulverizers.... Let's not make a permanent heavy deck.
- Vag and his team are to smart to be beaten by a same decktype again, we need to think of something different.
- Both Dischole as CataTitans suffered severe losses in previous rounds. I'm sure they will be able to build something out of scraps though. So test properly!
Team LifeDecks:Tactics:
Team LightDecks:2 - Novahope: weird deck, based on luciferin and Light Dragons.
1 - RoL/Hope: Lost in R2.
2 - Blessed Dunes: with sundials and eternity, might aswell test vs it.
3 - Fire Stall: sancs, rage pots, bolts and fahrenheit. We know how this works! Test it! Lost in R2
2 - Immobow: Very fast and scary deck. Haven't seen it yet this war.
3 - Discosaders: Antimatter, Discord, Crusaders. We should test it.
4 - Immortal: Another killer stall from light. We need to make sure we can beat this!
2 - Death/Light duo: Poison, Arsenic and Crusaders or Miracles. Dangerous deck, but unlikely vs water.
3 - Air/Light duo: Eagles Eye, Blessed Crusaders, Wings and Miracles. Thats is one mean deck right there.
3 - Novabow: based on Pegasi and Blessings.
3 - Vader Saders: Lost in R1, won in R2. I don;t think they will use this vs CC heavy elements like us.
3 - Magnolia: Titansaders + Chargers. Both lost and won in R2. Around 9-10 creatures max? Our CC shoudl take care of this.
4 - Aether/Light duo: PU Angels/Dragons with a surprise fractal? Can break our stalls while holding us off with dim shields. Won in R2.
Tactics:- We need to pack CC... and kill thos goddamn Crusaders.
- Remember it's a general we're fighting. He is aided by GG, Kakerlake and Zeru aswell....
- We need to find a way to break both stalls and defeat Magnolia/Discosader/Aether/Light Duo. Any idea's?
Team TimeDecks:2 - Mono Time Rush: Actually not THAT slow with GotP, Dragons and a Golden Nymph.
4 - Novabows: Graboids, Arsenic, Fog, EQ, Explosions, Lightning. TEST! Won in R2+R3
3 - IGT: Or any Fractal/Dim Shiel/Lightnign deck for that matter. Make sure you can handle these. Has beaten us in R2 and R3.
4 - GotP/Nightmare: We all know how it works. Make sure you test vs this, it should be quite beatable. Lost in R2
2 - Time/Earth duo: Graboids + EQ's/BB's combiend with rewinds/GotP. Tough deck, won in R3.
3 - Dune Scorpion: With momentum/blessing and possibly CP (They got discords too!). Just pack a Purify or two imo. Test this!
3 - Light/Time Stall: Stalling with Miracles, Sundials etc. Won in R3.
2 - Time/Earth duo: Graboids, RT's, EQ's, GotP's.
Tactics:- Bring 2-3 purifies vs dune scorps (wouldn't be the first time in war they try this on
, esp not if 10 Men tests and finds it can win)
- Bring CC vs their Novabow and GotP decks.
- Suicide?....
- Poisonrush them?
