Round 4 - Deck Review

[ddevans96]

Alright, this is point of war where we're starting to discard a lot more, which means two things:

1) We need to create different ideas, using the cards we still have.
2) We need to win matches

As such, we need to build variants of decks for the cards in jc's post below, as well as decks that would work if we had to discard specific things. Additionally, I want us to take every deck we've lost with this war and analyze them. We should discuss if quanta was imbalanced, if the deck was lacking in anything, if we should have modded it differently for that matchup, etc.

One example: In Round 3, we discussed a mono-darkness with water splash as a tinkerer option, especially since we have yet to use Devs. Here's some possible examples worked out by me and jcj in chat:

Spoiler for Tinkerer/Mercenary Darkness Duos:

dd mod: -2 nightmare +2 steal
Brutally powerful deck, quite possibly one of our best options.

Spoiler for Tinkerer Freeze/Crawler splash (built by me):

Card swap of regen's mono-darkness, then modded slightly. Decent but probably lacking compared to jcj's deck.

Spoiler for Tinkerer SoP/Congeal Hybrid (built by me):

5ie 5j2 5j2 5j2 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5uk 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5um 5up 5up 5up 606 606 606 606 606 7gn 7gn 7gn 7td 7td 7td 7td 8pp

Meant to combine the above two decks. doesn't have the sheer power of jcj's but possibly more versatility.

Spoiler for Mercenary SoP Devs (built by me, mds suggested by jcj):

Mercenary option, in case we want to use Tinkerer elsewhere. Not as powerful as the above decks, most likely, but spares Tinkerer for other uses.

Cards that might be unexpected from us, either because we haven't used them, or we might have been thought to discard all copies.
- Rewind / Eternity
- Skull Shield / Poison
- Butterfly Effect
- Pulveriser
- Wings / Shockwave
- Adrenaline
- Otyugh
- Sundials
- Devourer

Heavily modified this post to fit our purposes, sorry jcj. ~dd

Stickying this thread because it's extremely important.

So. I was having a think about sundial.

Tinkerer UG Dials. Unsure if it could be made better, but it works well.

EDIT: very, VERY consistsant 7-8 ttw.
