>I was AT Origins and there was this buzz about a deck that used about 15 plans of the Obsidian Order and Tal Shiar to draw itself out in just a matter of turns.
> >It appeared again in a post about Wizard World this weekend. > >Does anyone know how it works? I keep looking at the cards and can't quite figure it out. My best bet is to discard a plans to download an espionage card--then discard the espionage card (via a second plans) to draw a card. > >Since cards are NOT cumulative, this could result in two additional card draws per turn (assuming one of the Obsidian Order and one of the Tal Shiar). But I don't exactly see the card advantage in using up a LOT of seed cards to pull this off... > >What did the deck do next? How did IT score points?? How did it stop its opponent from solving what have to clearly weakend dilemma combos... > >Keevan What the dude did was seed 16 HAs, 12 of which were Plans of... (pick one). On his firsat turn he flipped all 12, downloaded 12 espionnage cards, and played a lot of remodulations (discarding the espionnages and drawing his deck). Then for his card play he reported Vash to his outpost. After that he discarded STP and dropped a FE with every Fed/NA AU personnel and Q-Bypassed Hunt for DNA, and Wormhole Negotiations (Both of which got Hide and seeked by me) so as a backup he had Cultural Observation and Pegasus Search (Both Bypassed- I was out of H&S) to win the game on turn 1 or 2. It angered me because I had my best draw of the day in that game (a loaded cube out on my turn 2) and he beat me onj his turn 2. But I wont get into that because I dont wanna get banned for abusing the language filters... At any rate, I expect this deck to pop up again especially now that its known. I would also like to congratulate Dave Bowling for beating this guy in the last round to put him out of the final. It goes to show that a good player can beat any type of cheese deck. |
