Played a very one-sided game. The person who won got off to an amazing start and just kept plowing away from there. By the end of the game, he had 9001 cards in territory and the person who lost had 3 or 4. And then the winning RA used CTB Damsel with Serpent in hand just to twist the blade XD

However, the person who lost had 4 and almost won, despite a 7 turn card disadvantage and depleted hand the entire game. This was possible because TB is super-awesome.

I am still lobbying for banning CM and AotL. Eliminating them would help decentralize the game even further and force players to build decks well to account for particularly nasty characters, rather than relying on a Dom to solve the problem.

I am quoting this, for no other reason than I was the person Pol played with, and I want to get back on the TB list

And I will second the motion for banning CM and AotL.

CM and AotL are not auto-wins and shouldn't be banned, IMO.

Master KChief · « **Reply #177 on:** August 06, 2011, 05:22:55 AM »

not auto-wins if you're playing with nt, right?

Westy · « **Reply #178 on:** August 06, 2011, 05:41:50 AM »

Or banding, one of the more common strategies.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #179 on:** August 07, 2011, 12:54:17 AM »

or Abithar/Prince of Persia.

Considering the release of the new set and new REG, as well as the absence of half of the Ban list membership, I'm going to suspend this weeks testing period.

Relax, build new decks, new set gets tested in a week.

Pol, if this offends you in any way let me know.

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #181 on:** August 10, 2011, 12:44:15 AM »

I vote we ban Ahimilek.

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #182 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:43:23 AM »

You have no idea how long I've waited for the new set to be out so I can mess around with him. Such a great, fun, powerful card.

I have the type 2 offense done already. He's too good.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #184 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:52:00 AM »

I don't see it. How is he that powerful?

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #185 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:54:52 AM »

I'll let you figure out the specific cards yourself, but suffice it to say - You usually don't start battles with him.

He is broken. If you think Thad is bad, he's 10x worse.

BubbleBoy · « **Reply #187 on:** August 10, 2011, 01:58:45 AM »

Okay, I figured that much out, but I thought there was something I was missing, since it didn't seem that powerful. I guess it is CBN though, so that probably will be a nice combo.

It's been found by anyone who has played type 2 around when Patriarchs was released.

Red · « **Reply #189 on:** August 10, 2011, 02:07:49 AM »

Yeah ahimilech is op'd.

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #190 on:** August 10, 2011, 05:43:28 AM »

I agree with the suspension, and would furthermore propose we clear the slate while the new meta settles in. I'd suggest stating new suspect proposals two weeks after the new cards are available on RTS.

I was hesitant to do that at first, but realizing all the cards that target neutral cards and other dominant hate in this set it makes sense.
I'm pretty sure Gabe already has the RTS files complete and will upload them soon after nats, so no need for that.

Do you think Blinding Demon will actually see play this T2 season? Not being sarcastic, this is a legit question from a non-T2 player.

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #193 on:** August 14, 2011, 12:17:08 AM »

No. Type 2 decks don't have space to soft counter a deck type that might not even see play.

I agree that no one will use Blinding Demon. The liability with the Ahimelech/Ambush play is the reason Ambush hasn't been seen in T2 decks for years. If you attack with an Ambushed hero, and are blocked by a guy with Horses who plays an end the battle ability, then the rule is your guy is flipped up as part of battle resolution, but his ability can't take place.

Obviously there are ways around Horses/play abilities but that gets even more complicated.

Banlist is back up, 2011 Set is available for testing.

For people who wish to join:
NOW IS THE TIME TO DO SO

I will be accepting members without the 1 week trial period until the end of this testing period.

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #196 on:** August 16, 2011, 08:44:48 PM »

Genesis is broken in ban once we ban Mayhem and NJ.... the issue is what to ban.

I nom Mayhem, NJ, Ahimelek, and 7years of plenty.

Lamborghini_diablo · « **Reply #197 on:** August 16, 2011, 08:49:45 PM »

Lets not ban any new cards just yet until we've played a few games.

Oh also I'm finally joining in.

Alex_Olijar · « **Reply #198 on:** August 16, 2011, 08:51:02 PM »

I played 4 games kid

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #199 on:** August 16, 2011, 09:51:38 PM »

Something will probably have to be done about Genesis. TB was becoming uber-centralized to Genesis even before the new set sent it through the roof.
