The Dictator vs. Pervepic (Air)

Wyrm can be coupled with Light or Entropy to deal heavy damage. Fog Shield and Wings are both fantastic shields. Firefly Queen rush is an oldie but a goodie. Unstable Gas is deadly. Shockwave and Owl's Eye are both very effective creature control. Flying Weapon is a bundle of fun. As of the end of round 1, has no Unstable Gas.
    Their only permanent control is one Butterfly Effect and a bunch of Steals.  Everyone is scared of Ice Shield, and I predict that means that they'll bring their Steals, which means Devourers and Black Dragons will also join the party. The appropriate response is Discord / Antimatter to slow them down to the same speed their Devourers will put us at, and to counter their dragons. No permanents, to force the Steals to clog their hands. Slight problem in that a stolen Discord would be disastrous.A Water / Time duo with Reverse Time soundly beats any Flying Weapon deck.Any sort of purely offensive deck is fairly unlikely, as Water is packed with creature control. Because Air lacks any sort of true rush, a Light stall deck with Miracles healing and Morning Stars and Ice Bolts for final blow might do it.
