It´s possible to see the rest of decks in the final? Thanks!

I am really surprised to see Noora winning with the seating of this finals. Did someone manage to convince the wall decks to block the clown car deck cross-table? If not it's difficult for me to understand how can you damage enough the clown car deck to manage and oust it. In any case, congrats to Noora, it does not seam like an easy finals (with Bram playing Matasuntha as a predator).

He said he blocked 8 of Magnus' embraces, which was all that he managed to play. Thus Magnus couldnt get his deck started and died to Noora's bleeds.

The worst of Noora's victory is that it gives one more reason to those who want to ban / nerf MMPA / Ashur / Liquidation.

(Finally uploaded) Archon approved. Finnish Politics!

You could also play victim of habit. Works against both.

Victim of habit is an action, which is worse than hunt. It doesn't work against anything. NC Russia
