I really like this deck. I might have to build it and try it out. this is awesome. great to break out of your shell RR! although, it still is something out of the ordinary...

RR's account has been hijacked.  Someone report it quick before they do something worse than post a deck!

I never make "ordinary" decks.  From my initial two test games the site lock works pretty well.

Why Jacob's New Name?  Gaining 3/3 just seems like it would be really unimportant.

I guess to enhance Captain bands (and he gets First Strike too, right?).

take out jacobs new name and add Uzzah.
Title: Re: RR being...not like RR.
Post by: Professoralstad on January 21, 2010, 11:19:30 AM
take out jacobs new name and add Uzzah.

Better idea: Take out Jacob's New Name and add Asher. Because what's better than one pre-block ignore rescue? Two pre-block ignore rescues!!
Title: Re: RR being...not like RR.
Post by: RTSmaniac on January 21, 2010, 11:21:31 AM
how about TAS and uzzah with a plot. sounds better to me...

Wow!  RR has become like Massachusetts.   :o

The challenge to me was to keep the deck defenseless.

Maybe, I was also thinking about ambush the city.

Correct sir.

how about defence lite:)
Title: Re: RR being...not like RR.
Post by: Prof Underwood on January 21, 2010, 12:37:22 PM
This offense seems slower than speed deck's, and yet has no defense to prevent giving away LSs.  I don't see how this could work against the current meta.
Title: Re: RR being...not like RR.
Post by: Master KChief on January 21, 2010, 12:39:17 PM
you can at least afford 99% assured blocks, like writ or uzzah.

I have UW :-p.

Me either! But this is its first incarnation and I haven't lost (which means I have no idea what flaws lie within the deck) in it, so I will continue to use it till someone can beat it.

And oddly enough, I like the heavy offense deck, with the sites I can actually DO something about giving up LS.

Post by: RTSmaniac on January 21, 2010, 02:27:46 PM
yes i could possible call this defence lite cause sites do stall. And all ive heard is how people keep getting stomped by this thing. I can see how its hard to fix a deck if you cant see where it needs improvement. I guess you need to bring it to the big table and see what its got.
Title: Re: RR being...not like RR.
Post by: Warrior_Monk on January 21, 2010, 03:14:16 PM
I'd leave Jacob's New Name in there, I've used it before and found it to be effective.

Yes, yes I do. Sadly my internet will not won't let me use Hamachi, and it is a wireless router which locks out using RTS. :(

you could use a Mayhem to force your opponent to get some souls out.

I was thinking about it but that seems very hit/miss and it might make ME draw ls as well.

true, but you could put it in there and judge if you want to use it. if you already have a couple of lost souls and no sites, then drop a Mayhem after they draw. there are plenty of other uses for it as well. I'd also use a thorns lost soul to prevent them from SoG a shuffler.
