"Flogrush"-
10/10/2007
After several top-16 finishes, Floggingmollyla finally put the pieces in place
and broke through the competition to remain undefeated and win the 648-player
event this past Sunday. Playing in what might be the final "Power Elf"
tournament, he used this knowledge and an Ogre avatar text with lethal
efficiency, the correct tech for the current tournament environment.
"The goal of this deck is to getCollecting Gnoll Bountyout quickly by
finishing a quest. That's essential for easy avatar penetration with non-stop
damage bonuses, which will constantly put the pressure on the opponent. I have
chosen to run both Light and Shadow units -- despite their alignment, as they
are quite symbiotic in play."
"So far, many of the Mage decks in this tournament environment use the 'Power
Elf,' in which they would 'lag' quests in order to gain power. Instead of
having potentially more power, my Ogre avatar's text is very important for my
own units to breakthrough the next turn by having the liberty to quest where
opposing units exist. The Ogre text seems to scare the opponent'sIgneous
Adeptsright back into their pocket."
"It's important for units to have high attack rather than relying too much on a
card likePierce. Adding cards likeFurious BerserkerandOrc
Fanaticare good as they have Frenzy, andThought Defilergains
attack for each of my own Light units.Truth Captainis praised for its
text, but the 3 attack is most useful for me, I hardly ever discard cards to
keep him alive. The main damage crew would beIgneous AdeptandGiant
Field Rat, and whenCollecting Gnoll Bountyis in play,Thought
Defilerbecomes one as well."
"A great first turn would be playingTruth CaptainandGiant Field
Rat, inflicting two damage and having life to spare. With the absence
ofPierce, seeing a third-turn victory is less likely. But with my
avatar's text, I am also not likely going to die on turn 2 or 3."
"Strategy does not differ too much from deck to deck I face, but it is very
important to use all of my resources (avatar text,Slash,Shock of
Fire,Orc Fanatic) to destroy opposing units on a side, in order
to attack the opponent's avatar. Don't be afraid to useRoaring
Flameswhile questing."
"PlayingMana Sieveearly against an opponent who is questing can get
them in trouble. This would be the chance to push through both sides with a
raid next turn.Disableshould generally be used to destroy persistent
abilities such as a Fighter'sFocus RageandResistant, a
Scout'sLethal ResolveandAssail, or a Priest's
preemptiveDivine AuraandTranquility."
"Slashis a very nifty card for getting rid of opposing units while
questing, combined with avatar damage it is usually sufficient enough to clear
a raid zone. If not,Orc FanaticorShock of Fireshould do the
trick. Also do not be shy about usingShock of Fireagainst a unit if it
will allow your raid to potentially do more than one damage, as the card will
let you quest and attack enemy units with your avatar next turn."
"I'd like to say that Legends of Norrath is a very fun and balanced game, no
card in play goes unnoticed and will bite you back in the end if not dealt
with. The stratagies are very open-ended, and the game has much potential with
multiple raiding zones and avatar combat texts. Many times it becomes more
intense than any PvP duel in EverQuest 2."

"Vapor Trail"- 10/10/2007
Vapor broke the mold and carefully "teched" against the current tournament
field -- rife with Mage rush decks -- to win a 547-player event this past
Saturday. As the first major win for the Fighter avatar and questing deck,
Vapor describes the thought processes involved with his strategy:
"After the previous test tournaments, and all of the talk during the week was
about 'Power Elves' and swarm decks, I decided to give my quest deck one more
chance. I replaced cards likeDisableand added defensive cards under
the assumption that there wouldn't be many quest decks at the tournament. None
of my opponents were 'questers' so it worked out, and
removingDisablemeant the deck was back to its normal speed. For
defense, I took the advice from the boards and addedHoly Aura(which
meant the difference in several games). Going with heavy defense and the Ogre
avatar is a good counter to the swarm decks which many were playing. It also
worked pretty well against theSummon Servant/Igneous Savantdecks. That
said, many of the games were close and there were some great decks running. I
was down to 1 health left in 3 different games. Questing is all about taking
the small damage and stopping the large damage bursts."
"Shield Slammakes the deck work. You can start a quest
withReclaimorDisplaceout on a quest with an enemy unit and
playShield Slamduring the quest phase and apply that instead. This
gets around 'Disable-happy' players somewhat. If you have a shield in
play, you can also use it as you would anOutwit. The fact that it is
the highest-level Hidden ability is why I use it in my deck, though. It might
cost more than Forge Ahead, but it has more uses."
"The ideal starting hand isReclaim,Forge AheadorBob and
Weave, andShield Slam. From that you can win in 5 turns every
single time if your opponent doesn't complete a quest. The deck's design is
based upon completing a quest when it is attempted. If it will take more than
one attempt, it's usually better to hold abilities in your hand until you can
one-shot the quest (especially early). Or use them to set upShield
Slamor used with defense care ofSoul Shield."
"To get around Protectors, useOutwitorShiny Brass Shield. The
shield takes 2 power to use, but a permanentOutwitis worth it."
"Mutilateis like a 'boosted'Kickthat can be used in defense.
Most of the time they can be saved in your hand until you have two or three
quests completed and you can take out all the Protectors in one shot
(exceptVigilant Dwarfwhich takes 2), as well as units likeFippy
Darkpaw."
"For healing, I was only usingGreaves of the Pious. I felt a lot safer
when I had aWarlord's BreastplateandDrain of Bloodin the
deck. However, with the short nature of games, its hard to rely on those cards
when you are the only player generating power. Throughout the 10 games of the
tournament, only 2 of my opponents completed a quest. The rest sat on one level
token at each quest for the power boost to due to the Wood Elf avatar.
Countering this was easy, as I one-shot quests whenever possible, robbing them
of that power. When you quest you are going to take a lot of damage. All you
need to do is fend them off long enough to complete quests. Take the small
damage when you can and save your defense cards for times you will take more
than 1 damage."
"Overall this deck, or previous incarnations, is sitting at a 56-5 record for
me. (It has lost to two quest decks and 3 avatar-killer decks.) The hardest
matchup I have seen is the avatar vs. avatar decks. When I saw Lint was playing
one in the final match, I was pretty nervous."
"Comments on the tournament: I wasDisabledabout 16 times throughout
the 10 games of the tournament. In one game, someone usedDisableon my
two abilities that were out in the same turn. While it did make the game go
longer, the fact that none of those were Priest quest decks that could
playDisableevery turn meant it was only an annoyance. The longest game
I had was completed on round 17. (I was hit withDisablethree times in
the first three turns.) I had four games that could have gone either way, and
went down to either someone forgetting to do something or not drawing
aSunstrikeorShock of Fire, or playing aDisable. If I
had less than 10 health or if I redrew my hand I would have lost 5 games. Seven
to nine health doesn't really cut it for questing."
"I had a lot of fun, and was glad a quest deck could place well. I think a lot
of it had to do with the decks that were played today. A Fighter quest deck
with the Ogre text is a pretty good counter to a swarm deck using the Wood Elf
power avatar."

Arge, the current number
one rated player in the world, defeated all opponents this past Saturday to win
a 757-player event. The deck he used has peaked the curiosity of many, many
players and Arge was kind enough to give some insight into his deck, why he
chose certain cards, and what he was trying to accomplish in each game.
"Because of the different types of decks currently in tournament play (i.e.
"fighter-Fiery Avenger", scout or priest "Lockdown"), I choose mage because of
the tactical advantages. Many decks have a tendency of doing 8+ damage per turn
if they have the power to do so. A mage build allows me to have a card that can
drain power (i.e. Mana Sieve) which is quite effective vs. the fighters and
scouts. Also, many mage abilities can do direct damage which is extremely
helpful in finishing off opponents or opening an avenue of attack for your
units. Because mage is such a versatile archetype it was only a matter of
putting the right cards together to form a successful deck."
"This deck's layout is mostly creatures (40%) with abilities (34%) and tactics (26%). The deck was designed to be a "unit rush" to maximize damage through any means possible. It also has many ways of eliminating opposing units to raid the opponent's avatar. A few of the effective cards at maximizing damage or eliminating opposing units are:
Decoy: This card has won so many games for me. Many
people place a single unit at a quest and think they are safe. By moving that
unit and allowing your units to attack the "safe" avatar you can inflict
massive damage.
Roar of Flames: A card that adds +1 attack and +1 damage for a lowly cost of 1.
This card can win games by itself.! It's great for questing to clear multiple
units at that quest. It's also great to attack an exhausted avatar with a unit
to get extra damage. This card has many uses.
Sacrifice: Most people get thrown off by this card and don't use it because of
needing to sacrifice a creature to play it. This card can make the opposing
player waste tactics or can just kill them before they have a chance to place
that dreaded Divine Aura.
Orc Fanatic: If you play this card right you can almost always kill two units
with this guy!"
"In the current tournament setting this deck can win against any deck. Sidesteps and Mana Sieve need to be saved for certain scenarios when faced against a fighter or scout - or you will lose. And Disable is almost required vs. a "Lockdown Priest" deck. When faced versus other mages you need to always be wary of the Igneous Adept that can pop up… ideal defense is just to keep creatures on both sides of the playing field."
Arge's winning deck from the 757-player tournament on 9/29

4x Shock of Fire 1C81
4x Roaring Flames 1C104

The Tournament Deck -
10/02/2007
Competing at the top level in both EverQuest and
Legends of Norrath, Wiznut is truly a master player. He bested a field of 752
players this past Sunday, including a head-to-head match with the top rated
player in the world! After his victory he agreed to share with you the strategy
behind his winning deck.
"The main premise behind my tournament deck is to kill off the opposing avatar with creature zerg. This is best done with either 0 quests or 1 completed at the most. It is not uncommon to get 2-3 round kills with this deck."
"The ideal draw on this deck consists of a Reclaim, Intensify, Igneous Adept, Terror Wraith, Thought Defiler, and a Pierce. Whether I get the first turn or not, I will play the Reclaim and Intensify to get 2 abilities out and have 3 power to spend still. This guarantees me 4 power on the next turn, and 6 power on the third (baring Disables)."
"If I do not draw Reclaim and Intensify, I will either play Igneous Adept with a Pierce for 4 damage first turn, or a Thought Defiler unexerted to build up a defense on one side of the board. My goal within the first couple turns is to have all of my creatures that I play live through each round, unless I see the possibility of 2- or 3-rounding an opponent."
"Within the main strategy there are multiple, simple combos built in. Dealing Orc Fanatic damage to Gnoll Soothsayer in order to draw a card, continually exerting Depart to attack twice every turn for 3 initial power, etc. All the cards included in this build are meant to work with one another; no single card is the beat all. Such as 3 Fallen Chieftan, and a Thought Defiler played to the Collecting Gnoll Bounty quest, yield a 5 damage bonus Thought Defiler!"
"Although for its strengths, this deck does have weakness. The Wood Elf avatar has an extremely weak defense and can fall easily to a well built avatar assault deck. A well built defensive deck that can buy time to build up power while taking away my level tokens at quests can be equally difficult to overcome."
"I'd just like to add that my experience in Legends of Norrath tournaments have been some of the most exciting days I've spent in EverQuest. Between raiding with my guild, Final Horizon on one screen (and beating Beltron for a Stromm first!), and being on the edge of my seat over which card my opponent is going to play next on my other screen, I can't say my heart has ever beat so hard!"

The Tournament Deck - 10/02/2007
Competing at the top level in both EverQuest and Legends of Norrath,
Wiznut is truly a master player. He bested a field of 752 players this past
Sunday, including a head-to-head match with the top rated player in the world!
After his victory he agreed to share with you the strategy behind his winning
deck.
"The main premise behind my tournament deck is to kill off the opposing avatar with creature zerg. This is best done with either 0 quests or 1 completed at the most. It is not uncommon to get 2-3 round kills with this deck."
"The ideal draw on this deck consists of a Reclaim, Intensify, Igneous Adept, Terror Wraith, Thought Defiler, and a Pierce. Whether I get the first turn or not, I will play the Reclaim and Intensify to get 2 abilities out and have 3 power to spend still. This guarantees me 4 power on the next turn, and 6 power on the third (baring Disables)."
"If I do not draw Reclaim and Intensify, I will either play Igneous Adept with a Pierce for 4 damage first turn, or a Thought Defiler unexerted to build up a defense on one side of the board. My goal within the first couple turns is to have all of my creatures that I play live through each round, unless I see the possibility of 2- or 3-rounding an opponent."
"Within the main strategy there are multiple, simple combos built in. Dealing Orc Fanatic damage to Gnoll Soothsayer in order to draw a card, continually exerting Depart to attack twice every turn for 3 initial power, etc. All the cards included in this build are meant to work with one another; no single card is the beat all. Such as 3 Fallen Chieftan, and a Thought Defiler played to the Collecting Gnoll Bounty quest, yield a 5 damage bonus Thought Defiler!"
"Although for its strengths, this deck does have weakness. The Wood Elf avatar has an extremely weak defense and can fall easily to a well built avatar assault deck. A well built defensive deck that can buy time to build up power while taking away my level tokens at quests can be equally difficult to overcome."
"I'd just like to add that my experience in Legends of Norrath tournaments have been some of the most exciting days I've spent in EverQuest. Between raiding with my guild, Final Horizon on one screen (and beating Beltron for a Stromm first!), and being on the edge of my seat over which card my opponent is going to play next on my other screen, I can't say my heart has ever beat so hard!"

On Tuesday, September 25, Sony Online Entertainment brought all of its games
and services down for approximately 14 hours. While we did everything we could
to make people aware of the pending downtime as early as possible, some SOE
gamers have expressed confusion about what exactly we did that day.
