ill share mine with you when i find some time (tomorrow mby). yeah well then you had alot of bad luck there but againstmgrimaldis and borgia tower its all about blocking all slotswith your followers to buy time for your own grimaldis and wait for the sudden exhaust and tactical upheavel combo. if you must you even have to sacrifice your grimaldis

Sometimes the best solution to Grimaldi is your own Grimaldi, on time

You guys are really making me look more like a noob with each one of those posts I read... Well, to be fair I am a noob at this game (AC:Rev MP, I am great, but AC:Rec still learning)
My Idea of a sequence, is 'I'll put in the ones that can/may/will help... and just take things out if I don't like it, and put more in if I think it needs it... But none of this certain deck types... To be fair I find those that just pounce on sites annoying... And actually not to hard to beat any more, just wait for them to build their sites up... then tear them down, hehe... while using my own sites and Grimaldis and Donatos and my newly aquired V. de Pazzi, with E. Troche to help give them all an extra boost... and where possible with Uberto, C. Borgia or R. Borgia
I feel, though, like Order is pretty a given for my deck... but keep changing the second option between Media, Faith and Green (The name has left my mind hehe) and I am just trying to find the one that will be most useful... Any ideas?
(I can't really use crime yet as I only have 5 of the 6 Tempar Cards and about 2 Assassins.

Back on topic a little - I have found that opponents' decks are getting better in general. Along with many other people who post here, my idea of a successful deck used to be one that won 90+% of the time. Now, I would guess I'm running more in the 75-80% range on solid decks. A lot of it just comes down to matchups - some deck styles are just strong against other certain styles. It's almost a game of rock paper scissors at deck selection where fewer opponents play rock (order rush) than was the case a month ago.

Totally agree Gamemeastro, I've been thinking about making that comment for a few days now. I'm definitely getting more tight games, and the occasional combo blowout against me

Any ideas? Order is pretty much required until you build a good stock of cards. I think people underestimate the power of small blue agents vs fatties. Until you can play a solid set of control cards, small official agents are pretty sweet. I prefer even Arquebusier to Grimaldi, but your mileage may vary.

@ Gamemaestro: I have been involved in much closer games as well, though I seem to get a lot of "rock" games. In particular, it seems like every other person I play is running a noble deck with all of the weenie officials. It's certainly a much more enjoyable experience than every other game playing against someone running first sequence.

No doubt - order rush is still the primary good deck out there. However, I've played against some decent control and site decks from people whose name I've never seen before as well. Not many crime decks, but those are pretty assassin heavy so I'd assume it will be a while before they become prevalent. I still play some against some poorly constructed decks, too, but the overall quality is definitely improving.

If you are playing on the cheap, gathering cards as you play, Order Rush is the first viable deck you have access too. Pretty soon after that you can branch into Site Rush or Media Rush. You can start packing control elements, but pure control (or combo) really needs Assassin cards to run well (afaik).
But there are more and more people out there with good card pools too.
