Funny to see my name on this list as I think I have played you once recently and when I did, I used a site deck with a few counters in it. In fact, as I recall, I beat you fast, so I have no idea why you would complain about me (other than because you lost). I have lots of different decks and I change them regularly. Cheers.

Also, man, nobody on this forum can read. I flatly said I had no trouble with these decks. I also am not trying to stop people from using them. Did I ever, even once, suggest that the strategt be nerfed, changed, or removed, or the game altered in any way?
I even said in the OP that I ALSO have decks like that. I just use them selectively. I still USE them.
Some of you guys have the reading comprehension of second graders. Go read it again.
This is nothing more than a shared resource for like minded people like everything else on this forum. Im not the one cryin' here.

Jef - what you did is complain that people play those decks to make people withdraw which sounds like a negative comment to me. Looking at the list, it's probably true that it's just people who beat you. There are some good players on that list. I just had an opponent make an early withdrawal for the first time in a long time because I used tactical upheaval on each of his two Dantes on day 2. Guess I should play those all the time and make a list of people who use them to create withdrawals

I ... how can you type and yet not read? This is ... mind boggling.
It says a lot to me how angry people have got over this. Especially KillingYouSoftly just now, though, that was fucking hilarious.
I'll only let people lag me out when I'm in the bonus, so, try that tactic earlier in the morning. Did prove my point though!

This is for people who are looking to have fun with the game not score cheap wins off withdrawals. This is the list of people who play decks that have very low threat designed to counter or discard every card you have and force you to quit out of boredom...They don't care, though, because they usually don't win by scoring...They are exploiting a weakness in the game which allows them to profit off the withdraw system. Have you read your own post? The real irony of all this is that most posters on this board play a wide range of decks, and as I said above the only withdrawal I've had recently was because I played two tactical upheavals. I guess I'm honored that I'm considered a worthy opponent despite the implication that the only way I try to win is through withdrawals.

Right. I totally said that was the only deck you ever played and that is all you ever do. You GOT me. Wooei, egg on MY face, right?

By the way, I think we all find playing that sort of deck annoying, especially if we don't outrush them. I include certain cards in most of my serious decks to make sure that I'm not at the mercy of such decks. I understand that they're a real pet peeve of yours (this wasnt the first time youd made denigrating comments about that type of deck) and only took issue with the way you presented the topic. As you know from other threads, I find most of your posts helpful or useful. This one was accusatory and was perhaps meant to be a troll. Either way, I'm done with this topic.

I genuinely didn't intend to insult anyone here or not here. This is just a list that I keep and find handy and I thought I would share.
Think of it this way: It's a list of people I consider to be eligible for high control/discard decks. I won't use those decks against random people. I've never been a "pubstomper" if you will. I just don't like to. It makes me feel like a jerk. I DO however enjoy the challenge of playing against them and, when playing these players, using the strategy against the best at it. Like a PvP flag on a PvE server, though, I can't speak for PvE servers, because I never play on them. I'm all about the gank.
Besides; if it DOES insult you then you should enjoy playing against me all the more next time we match up! Bonus for you!

For the record, I rate Gamemeastro's discard/counter deck the best (I.e. most unbeatable) deck I have ever played against (I haven't played everyone on the forum), and I was super stoked the one day I forced a stalemate against it. Having said that, I am glad he doesnt play it every time we face, and we face each other on average once a day
