Title: Best Duel Deck
Post by: Agrus Kos, Enforcer of Truth on August 09, 2013, 11:26:20 AM
What do you think would be the coolest duel deck for them to make? I love the idea of Squirrels vs. Rats but I wanted to know some other opinions.

Personally, I'd like to see Elspeth against... Well, anyone. It's been a while since she's been relevant and I'm so tired of seeing Ajani.

By the way, Squirrels would win because infinite tokens on turn 3 :P

This. I would like to see Elspeth vs Liliana.

I think Elephants (and Loxodons) vs. Wurm would be cool because it isn't normal and I have always wanted a an elephant deck and a wurm deck. Also would love to see Treefolk/Saprolings vs. something

Title: Re: Best Duel Deck
Post by: Mizark on August 09, 2013, 01:03:19 PM
Progenitus vs Emrakul !!
That would be Epic !!

Also {Garruk Relentless} vs {Sorin, Lord of Innistrad}, with the concept of Werewolfs vs Vampires

And lastly
Nicol Bolas vs Urza !!!!!!

I would like them to do like a planes duel deck. Like innestrad vs. alara. That would make for interesting decks I think.

Well ok if you want to get technical, you're correct. But in the books way back when, they said he was the first planeswalker and that's good enough for me :)

Elephants vs ...something in black.

Elephants are very communal and so I think the deck would focus on dividing and conquering that there against

I want maybe a Ral Zarek versus Domri Rade deck. I dunno... I worship Ral. And maybe Karn vs Vrasks? She resembles the Phyrexians.
Title: Re: Best Duel Deck

I'd love a {Gideon Jura}/{Gideon, Champion of Justice} vs {Vraska the Unseen} deck. They've contrasted brilliantly in combat for me in the past. Heaps of laughs from these two.

Even though they've used them in the past, I'd love a Phyrexian vs Mirren duel set. I've made a few but I wanna see how they would swing it!

Title: Re: Best Duel Deck

Crap, sorry, didn't know that. What was the name of it? I may want to look it up. So plan B, I say humans vs zombies, or faerie's vs ?, (I've been on a faerie kick lately, don't judge me).

Yeah, it has been roughly 50/50 when ever I've had them dueling.

Correction, it's called Divine vs Demonic. Go to the main page> Expansions> Reprint Series> Duel Decks: Divine vs Demonic and have a look or you can find it the same way in any search filter.

Sorry mate, wasn't trying to nit pick, honestly. Just moderating to the best of my ability so that the more inexperienced users and/or newer, more unknowing players had an easier time time finding this duel set. No harm meant, just doing my job.

Let it be known that everything a mod says on these forums is without any malice, injustice or personal infliction purely because it is what we agreed upon to become one, global (Elder) or local (Hand).

That is all, as you were.
