Yeah, I figured I would be entirely on the ropes even if not technically dead yet.
100% agree on Dark Pact / Deteriorate, it was perhaps a bit too ambitious to think this one change would counteract the overtuning of vanilla black 
but I’m still glad to have the datapoint.
From my side it felt like I started to lose board due to both the 2g cost of the Mirrors and their 0 attack. I was spending gold for chump blockers that didn’t damage your board at all. Vandy sparkshot meant I couldn’t use the Elite slot safely and I never felt like I was in a position to build a Tower and actually defend it due to the gold expense.
That said, I don’t think I was far away from stabilising and I suspect that line with either 1/1 or 1g mirrors would see P2 Blue getting to a defensible Tech II up and running. Something we can maybe come back to if 1g Deteriorate / Dark Pact doesn’t get us anywhere
| Test 2 Nerfs | |
|---|---|
| Deteriorate | Cost → 1g, Cannot target illusions |
| Dark Pact | Cost → 1g |
| Vandy Midband | Remove Resist 1, Cannot fetch Metamorphosis |
It’s probably best if we do it MMM style and I stick with P2 Blue for now. I think that’s where we need to see the most win rate improvement anyway.
