I didn't take it to a tournament, yet. After several rounds in casual games I have a very good feeling for this deck. It seems well balanced and I could win most of the recent games with it.

Where's Obedience? Don't you guys do a lot of combat? Also, Anson can't misdirect, but he can Deflect!
ReplyDeleteNever needed Obedience. We do combat, but I don't think obedience will save your ass against tupdog rush, weenie animalism etc. I don't want to play 10+ obedience, would make the deck less agressive. I know Anson can't misdirect, but I love to have some intercept! I never had a problem with the reaction module.
ReplyDeleteFirst, Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I'm wondering if when you played it you ever came close to running out of cards? I'm very interested in the ratios as well. You said it was well balanced, do you mean you felt you were able to draw the cards you needed most of the time?

You are welcome!
ReplyDeleteI never even came close to running out of cards. The deck is adjusted to my play style. In the first ~45 minutes I focus on gaining pool and influence out 4 vampires. With Parity Shift + Banishment this deck can control a strong prey, so I let my prey be strong in the early game. Strong prey -> weak grandprey -> strong grand predator -> weak predator. That is the basic idea. After you have 4 vampires and the cards needed, you can harm your prey a lot. Parity + Neonate Breach, and a KRC + Anarchist can oust your prey in two turns and crush the table. This is just theory of course, but it works out fine from time to time.
Of course, always harm the rush deck, even if it is your cross table buddy.

How about ashurize the deck ?
