[ quoted text not captured ] I wonder if Matt or Ben would like to comment on what made this deck sing? I have a feeling it's all the untappy goodness and the weenie swarming-ness of it.

I considered more copies, but I really wanted 4x Anarch Convert and feel that it was important to have that many. If I played 4x AC and 4x Amaravati, there wouldn't be enough crypt diversity to get a critical mass of minions, to say nothing of vampires old enough to be Barons. I influenced out Anarch Convert in probably every game, even if that meant I'd have to go anarch the hard way. It's totally worth it to have an extra guy around for blocking rushes, Revolutionary Council and other tasks. Also, he makes the first cardless action cheaper. > Library [75 cards] > ------------------------------------------------------------ > Action [17] > 3x Embrace, The > 1x Fee Stake: Boston > 1x Fee Stake: Corte > 1x Fee Stake: Los Angeles > 1x Fee Stake: New York > 1x Fee Stake: Perth > 1x Fee Stake: Seattle > 1x Khabar: Glory > 2x Undue Influence > 5x Web of Knives Recruit I think there's an error here. I'm pretty sure the deck has 4x Embraces and my version didn't have The Uncoiling. Ben dropped the Undue Influences for one Uncoiling and one Direct Intervention. These were probably good changes. The UI is sort of leftover from early experiments with CrimethInc. The deck originally had Keystone Kine. Ultimately, these actions just don't seem to be that worthwhile, even if you get to untap somebody. Anyway, Ben still has the deck, so hopefully he can confirm the number of Embraces. > Action Modifier [23] > 3x Cloak the Gathering > 6x CrimethInc. > 2x Cryptic Rider > 1x Domain of Evernight > 3x Faceless Night > 3x Lost in Crowds > 3x Spying Mission > 2x Veil the Legions > > Action Modifier/Combat [3] > 3x Swallowed by the Night The Cryptic Riders were never useful for me, but they probably won Ben the championship. I didn't have any trouble passing votes in any game. There's a lot of stealth, but it's still important to conserve it. Crutial actions must not be blocked and permanent intercept can be a pain. The way to deal with Carlton? If it's an important action, stealth it. If not, let him block. This deck can't get past +1 intercept forever. There's no Elder Impersonation because I hate playing it at inferior. Pentex Subversion usually works better anyway. > Event [1] > 1x Uncoiling, The Wasn't in the deck as mentioned above and I never needed it. Ben said it won him a game though. > Master [14] > 3x Alamut Surprisingly not that important. The only time it mattered at all was in round 1 when the table kept trying to convince John Eno to use his Alamut counters against me but he (correctly, IMO) wanted to save them for a crutial action since he was in a bad position and unlikely to get more. I eventually contested Alamut to put an end to the discussion. > 1x Archon Investigation Very important for me in the final. I burned Hugh's Joseph O'Grady on his first bleed which slowed him a bit and later Blackhorse Tanner played Conditioning at inferior. I actually took a bounced bleed of 4 earlier while I held the AI because I figured it was likely I could get one of my predator's minions. > 1x Barrens, The > 1x Black Throne, The > 2x Blood Doll > 1x Club Illusion This is so huge in this deck. Players will count the number of Anarchs and realize I can do 2x that much pool damage if my vote goes off and will hold a Delaying Tactics or Direct Intervention and believe themselves to be safe for a while. Not true. Club Illusion makes a great backup plan when the vote is delayed. > 1x Garibaldi-Meucci Museum Perfect anti-DI tech.

I just didn't have time to do it. They've been great in casual play, but often found I didn't have the luxury of an extended set-up play in this tournament. I believe Ben had the same experience. By the way, I think I managed 18 pool damage with one Revolutionary Council in this tournament, but my personal record is 22 in a casual game. Matt Morgan

And you have mid-cap to large minions, no combat defense, no intercept, and no bounce. How did your deck survive long enough to oust? Also, did you find that 6 CrimethInc were too many? Seems like you don't have *that* many actions that require Anarch. Why did you let Ben play your deck Day 2, instead of winning with it yourself? :) Congrats to both of you! Ira

If he hadn't cycled into the Uncoiling during the turn (and gotten lucky with the 50-50 shot of removing the Dragonbound), the Dragonbound would've ousted him that turn. At least, that's the story I heard later. I didn't see that game.

In the finals of Day 1, it was a key factor in getting me a VP 'cause it picked off an Unmasking. > So you hold the Club Illusion until you're ready to strike?

It isn't really a surprise unless you play it and lunge that very turn, or if you CrimethInc a guy or two after a Rev Council or what have you. > I'm surprised about pool defense.

You're also not spending a ton of pool on guys. 5 Con Boons and an Exclusion Principle is a lot of pool gain for a 75 card deck. Also, Revolutionary Council is often like a Con Boon. ;) > Also, did you find that 6 CrimethInc were too many?

The CrimethInc count didn't seem high to me. > Congrats to both of you! Thanks! - Ben

I guess I misunderstood Ben and he actually didn't get any use out of The Uncoiling with this deck. But yeah, Unmasking or Dragonbound would be important cards to remove. What about an Anthelios that allows a DI to be recycled to stop the Revolutionary Council? Anyway, I chose not to play with any silver bullets instead focusing on offense. I actually did end up playing against The Unmasking twice, but I had enough stealth that it wasn't a big problem. >>> 1x Club Illusion >> >> This is so huge in this deck.

I > understand your logic that it's a good back up plan, but the surprise > part surprises me. No, I played it when I drew it. Players often fixate on one angle and ignore others. Anyway, ousting with Club Illusion often requires stealth so my prey could hope I don't have enough to get the job done. >>> Political Action [17] >>> 1x Anarch Salon >>> 5x Consanguineous Boon >>> 1x Exclusion Principle >>> 2x Firebrand >>> 4x Kine Resources Contested >>> 1x Patsy >>> 3x Revolutionary Council >> >> My only real comment here is that most games were a little too fast and >> furious for me to go around getting Firebrands.

Had I been the prey of a bleedzooka at any point, I probably would've just died. Many decks don't plan to do 20 pool damage by turn 6. I frequently went low on pool, then gained 12 or so with a couple of Con Boons. > Also, did you find that 6 CrimethInc were too many? Seems like you > don't have *that* many actions that require Anarch. 6 Fee Stakes + 2 Undue Influence (not in Ben's version) + 1 Anarch Salon + 2 Firebrand + 1 Patsy + 3 Revolutionary Council = 15 anarch-requiring actions. Also, I can CrimethInc off the cardless go anarch action. That's plenty. If I wasn't happy with my hand and didn't have something to CrimethInc about, that was always my first discard. > Why did you let Ben play your deck Day 2, instead of winning with it > yourself? :) I don't like to keep playing a deck once it's won. If only I'd had another deck as good with me. > Congrats to both of you! Thanks! Matt Morgan

It also has two sources of lethal lunge power: Club Illusion and Revolutionary Council. - Ben Peal

I even got to wondering if Amaravati is even necessary for the deck. Thing is, the next best options are Djuhah (and one more pool for Amaravati's special is totally worth it) or double up on someone else (Layla). Going with group 2-3 gets a stronger 5-cap and 6-cap base (with some tha for the CrimethIncs), but the small caps aren't as good. > I influenced out Anarch Convert in probably every game, even if that meant > I'd have to go anarch the hard way.

I didn't draw a Convert in Round 3 of Day 2, but 4 intercept decks at that table contributed to my death far more than the lack of Converts. I still lucked into a VP due to David Tatu's craftiness (my predator says "no block" on Tatu's ousting bleed 'cause his grandpredator promised an Eagle's Sight. Tatu plays Crocodile's Tongue, and the blocker only had one blood...). > The Cryptic Riders were never useful for me, but they probably won Ben the > championship. I didn't have any trouble passing votes in any game. Oh, man, the Cryptic Riders were gold. I ran into a lot of table votes on Day 2, and couldn't draw an Alamut in the finals. In Round 2 of Day 2, Kevin Mergen (my prey) had to fish for a Prince or Justicar with his Nos breed boon deck, finally getting Nikolaus after discarding a few 3rd Trads (and the table votes wouldn't let him pass a Praxis Seizure or Justicar vote). I called a Con Boon to help my predator and grand predator, Cryptic Rider, then Patsy to pick off Nikolaus's title (and 2 pool loss!). In the finals, I couldn't draw an Alamut, so I was beholden to the table votes again. I got an Anarch Salon to pass, Cryptic Rider, Revolutionary Council for the oust. Even if people are wise to this trick, Cryptic Rider has another benefit - protecting you against Delaying Tactics (referendum auto- passes, no opportunity for DT). Months ago, I told Matt to put in a couple of Cryptic Riders for this very reason. When the Fee Stakes hit the table, you know people will be holding on to their DTs. Cryptic Rider keeps that target locked. > There's a lot of stealth, but it's still important to conserve it. > Crutial actions must not be blocked and permanent intercept can be a pain. > The way to deal with Carlton? If it's an important action, stealth it. > If not, let him block. This deck can't get past +1 intercept forever. > There's no Elder Impersonation because I hate playing it at inferior. > Pentex Subversion usually works better anyway. I'd still be inclined to put in a couple Elder Impersonations, as it helps conserve stealth cards. Yeah, there are 18 stealth cards, but I still felt like I wanted a couple more in there. There were times where I could Pentex the key vamp but still not get the oust that turn, and I'd be left wondering how to get a second lunge through. Also, there's only one Pentex in the deck (one is certainly free to add more), and I would've liked more than one such option. Then again, the deck did win both Day 1 and Day 2, so I suppose one could say that the amount of stealth was sufficient. :) > > Event [1] > > 1x Uncoiling, The > > Wasn't in the deck as mentioned above and I never needed it.

I > eventually contested Alamut to put an end to the discussion. In Round 1 of Day 2, I was vaporized by Floppy's weenie DBR, so Alamut didn't matter. In Round 2, Alamut definitely helped due to the quantity of table votes. In Round 3, it didn't matter 'cause there were 4 intercept decks at the table so getting an oust ended up meaning "bleed my prey out after spending more than half my deck". I had zero gas after that oust and I was lucky to even get it. In the finals, I didn't draw Alamut and very badly wanted one. > > 1x Archon Investigation > > Very important for me in the final.

Alas, it wasn't close to enough to protect me against Floppy's weenie DBR in Round 1, but it was critical in the final as it helped keep my Ani rush prey at bay and shut down a Banishment. > My only real comment here is that most games were a little too fast and > furious for me to go around getting Firebrands.
