Hmm, I think I see what Count is doing...posting all these decks to distract us from the deck he is really planning to use for the T2 Only...which is obviously Deacons/Animals... ::)

My response. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sZfZ8uWaOFI#)

But on a serious note, I think this deck could really work. Teal is one of the best brigades to use in T2, and Persians are an awesome def--

Never mind. I can't do it. I can't type with a straight face. But I will challenge you to use this deck, and if you win more than 3 games with it at the T2 only, my signature will be "If you think I'm good, you should play the Count." until the next T2 only.

3 games hm. I bet I could rig that with Bill's help. Gabe gave me the original idea. He hates me apparently. Well take a look at the other one. I have two I'm bringing. So can they beat me with this deck? Nevermind, I don't need an answer to that last question.

Your lack of deck building skills is Gabe's fault? :o

Here's a guaranteed way to see one of your 15 different T2 decks win the BIG T2 Blowout this year! :)

Give one of your decks to each of the following people - Justin, Jordan, Jayden, Nathan, Tim, Alan, Andrew, Pat, Gabe, Martin, John, Mitch, Josh and 2 RLKs. You sit back and watch it all unfold.

To that list of No Names? Matt is the only one I would trust to carry out a victory with my epic decks. If he stays for the whole tourney....

This idea has promise!  Consider that there have been a plethora of past discussions on the difference between rating game-players versus deck-builders, and those who incorporate both skills well.  Imagine an event where the T1 or T2 decks are pre-built by the host and randomly distributed among participants?  Me likey!  :)

*Two of the above players report their scores*

Player 1: We both lost.
Bill: Whadda you mean? Did you tie?
Player 2: No. The game was going fine until I drew a card that I had never seen used in a deck before. Then I realized my whole hand was terrible. Then thinking back, I realized that I didn't understand why any of the cards I had seen from the deck would be used in a competitive deck together. So I threw my deck in a snowbank.
Player 1: Yeah, and just when I figured that must signal a concession, I realized that it would be embarassing to say that I won a game with this deck. So I threw a few LSs in a paper shredder to make my deck illegal.
Bill: Well, at least you didn't forget to put all your neutral cards in the deck FTW.

*Everyone laughs at Jordan's teensy weensy oversight that Bill will never let him live down*

So, what you're saying is that Britta wins the tournament?

I'm not a T2 player, but I will go ahead and give some actual deck advice.  Thaddeus would walk all over this defense all day.  I don't know if you have enough to stop him.  2 sites, Satan's Seat, 2 Unholy Writ, CM...  Maybe.  I'm no T2 expert though.  My suggestion would be Covenant With Death x2.

Also, The Tabernacle might be of good use because then you could use your Silver Trumpets/Bronze Laver with Covenant with Death if you decide to add that.

This went undefeated at the T2 only, so I guess it kinda works.
