Guys? I need some more than 4 out of 7 deck choices for a proper start of the tournament…
I’ll take [Disease]/Discipline/Law for another spin.

Hi all,
one day behind schedule but still in time here comes the first round. Please take care to rename the threads accordingly once the deck choices are logged in. I myself will spend the next 4 days in the Alps and am not sure whether I’ll have access to the internet or not…
Enjoy your games!

The new year came round quick! I’ll give [Balance]/Blood/Demonology a try
After Dreamfires comment, I did some simulation an playtesting with Zango around Burning Legion. The deck, from which I thought that it is currently the best one, had no chance as P2 against Burning Legion. Only bad draws from Burning Legion would allow an P2 win. (Maybe a purple based deck is better with P2, but would not work effecient enought as P1). Similar with other very strong decks. You can beat Burning Legion as P1 with an acceptable rate (although Burning legion is a very good P2 deck), but you need a lot of luck as P2. So I could not find any deck that comes close to a 50% win rate against burning legion. I doubt that even the old Nightmare would do any better. So I cannot control the demon I created. Maybe some better players find a solution…
So I am still for a ban in the next tournaments or even in this one. If one BL is in you can only beat fire with fire.
I apologize, but I’ll stick with my usual of just mono-Blue.

Banning a single deck would be far too heavy-handed for my liking, especially in a non-experimental tournament. I don’t think we’ve ever banned anything in non-experimental, let alone after a single tournament appearance.

Ok. I just wanted to share my simulation results, that anyone has these information before the tournament.
My preference as well would be not to ban the single deck but instead refine the rework list to better squash the dominant deck or buff potential rivals. But let’s cross that bridge when we get to it

Here comes round 3, it will cover the first blood on burning legion, due to the mirror, so we’ll have to wait further for it to lose a “normal” game.

Farewell to @Bryce_The_Rice .
It’s impressive to see the power level of the mirror match. I’m crossing my fingers for @Dreamfire & @charnel_mouse to bring the first non-mirror-loss to Burning Legion!
