October 1st will be a happy day! Soldier will finally die, and the game will be a little more balanced. The sad thing is you need soldier to keep up with the competiton.
Look at these decks lists, no they didn't copy and paste the same deck 8 times. =|
Metagame, Boston SJC DecklistsWell, just for conversation, I'll tell a story. ^_^
I honestly think that the following cards are overrated -
Morphing Jar (slightly overrated)
Tsukuyomi (slightly overrated)
Sinister Serpent (WAY overrated)
Scapegoat (WAY overrated)
Metamorphisis/Thousand-Eyes Restrict (Moderately Overrated)
I know Soldier is VERY good, but I thought I could prove a point by not using it in my deck.
I entered my local tournament with this deck, no serpent, no goats, no Tsukuyomi, no Morph, and No Soldier. ( I was using Morphing Jar at the time )
Well the tournament is Swiss, 5 rounds, then a top 8.
For the first 5 rounds, I went 4-1, so I made top 8! :)
In the quaterfinals, I had to play my friend, who I had told the idea to. To make a long story short, he beat me with Soldier twice.
So now, I'm forced to use Soldier, even I have to give in and just use the damn thing. I hate, but as I said in the beginning, you need it to keep up with the competiton.
Well, I guess you can comment if you have anything to say. O_o
