Playtesting

Deck Help forum

I am incredibly bored right now on vacation, and I need to remember how to pilot my deck, so If you post your deck here, I'll playtest it against mine and post a detailed report afterwards.

First come, first served, Standard decks only please.

Jp3ngu1nb0y, you posted your deck wrong. You meant:

Woops, my bad. I didn't know the name had been done T-T

@Jp3ngu1nb0y (by the way, just figured out how to link you, nice name): I think yeaGO! should at least implement a feature where the more recently updated deck has the name without the letters. For example, my deck, SLIVERS!!!!! SLIVERS!!!!! SLIVERS!!!!! 's slug ends in 10-11-13-1. The deck that also bears its name, Slivers Slivers Slivers, hasn't been updated in 5 months and the one who made it hasn't been on for a year (huh?).

And that Round (against the first deck posted ) was wasted. Hold on, I'll try again in a little bit.
