Hey Mystery! I think the dispel strategy is sound and i thought i mentioned it in the first part of the video. Parkdeck wanted to try a different route which is always good data to see. That route was  massive passive healing. Rather than repeat he should dispel for a few hours i wanted to see the positive part of what he was doing.  Powlich may have been ready for the dispels since ghoul rot is not exacrty a new strategy. I think if he went dispel the whole game would be different and it is then very tough to say the outcome. It looks to me that needing to work out a way to deal with finite life is a big problem with parkdeck, as he can heal more passively then the ghoul rots could damage.

Love the community and tho I have not been a part of the community for very long I disagree on the activity of the community.

 I think it's pretty strong and I enjoy the different tournament formats arcane duels are doing and trying out.  I don't mind the commentating and enjoy the positivity.  I feel that the positivity will help along with critiques from players to learn and make better choices. 

As far as entertainment level I feel Coshade does an awesome job.  I also want to stress the awesome work all three Coshade, Sharkbait, and Puddinhead have done for the community.  It might not come out on a consistent basis but it's still really good and entertaining.  Thanks arcane duels!!!

Every year people cry wolf and panic. MW came out less than 5 years ago. The game is not dying, it's still growing, we might not have hit critical mass yet, but it's up to all of us to keep it growing and get there.

Anywho, I think Powlich's post was buried by the discussion; we are still looking for a judge for tomorrow, if possible.

Well Bilblo, Drefan, and Mystery did not compete in the tourney. And in some order, they are the three top dogs in mage wars ATM imo.

I think the entire expanded Charlotte community may take exception to this. I'd put our top 3, whether that's Ben, Millie, Mambo, Larrick, Sarah, and/or myself against those 3.

Ok so there are 3 favorites + 6 Charlotte pros plus the guys from arcane duels themselves all not competing.  If you manage to get them all together to one tournament that would upgrade some level ;)

Nah. I suck.

I would also love it if the Charlotte boasters would play on OCTGN and prove their prowess.

Shark competed in ADMW WS.
And at Gen con, at least a couple Charlotteers are entering as well as Coshade, Shark, Biblo, Zot, and some St. Loius people.

Keejchen and Powlich I can cover your match, I might be a few minutes late.  My internet doesn't upgrade until tomorrow so I won't  be able to stream it, sorry folks.  However, I will post it as soon as I can after it is completed.

I'm sure the matches would be epic!
Both sides have really good players. Although mystery is something else. ;)

Hey grizzly that would be awesome! As far as I know from this forum, you are mainly strong with your beastmaster. Be aware that in this tournament (and I guess future ones will be the same) you have to play s lot of different mages.
