It's not a strategy you can strategize for at the start of a match, but if you notice you're reasonably ahead, you can use it as a backup plan

How good is Chandra against you Kait?
Chandra's good against control if:

A) You're red deck has a viable mid/long game. In devotion red for instance, active Chandra will win the game as I assemble combo pieces and with things like dragon, purphoros, and hammer, I can easily beat multiple sphinx's revelations.

B) You can get a lot of damage out of her either by drawing cards or threatening ult.

uw mirror match. he isn't very good, put me in a position to win an unwinnable game but then he topdecked two brimaz in a row.

most control players have no idea what to counter in the mirror and think they are being clever by letting all your good spells resolve

He might not be good, but he has the counter every time.

I like when they don't split and I beat them.

I had my first fear concession last night. Opponent wanted no part of facing my deck.

by Kaitscralt
my last 3 no splits fell to my wrath

Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:08 am
by Kaitscralt
i get why they don't want to, it is only an 8 man. splits are much more common in the draft 8-4's.

going to see if i can finish this 35 rupee grind with a sealed daily

I'd say 90% of people split to be fair.

I'm 2-0 this week against no splits.

Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:13 am
by Kaitscralt
really? because i've started asking since you mentioned getting splits and maybe 2/10 have agreed to split.
