Awesome list ❤ If I ran into a Zen with this, is it always better to go second given the choice?
@ManSantFaB2 күн бұрын
Yep, second is def superior when we're built to not need graveyard, but some opponents will wizen up and expect you to be on a nonblocks build... Might punish you on Turn 0. Then again, if you do get to block with any cards going second, incredible.

Hey Ethan, thanks for all the great content! I got into fab recently with a gifted Kayo Armory deck, but quickly started picking up Levia cards. I've been running something pretty close to your Ball Breaker list for a few weeks and have been having such a blast and seeing great success. Last week I pulled out my first win again a Bravo player I'd lost to about 6 times so far, with a 28 damage Sash/Bloodrush turn where things just lined up perfectly. I've also pulled out 3 nail biters with a Reckless Swing, feels a little checky but all part of the game. Thank you for all the great work you do for this community, running the best live streaming content and showing the community what dedication to a hero can do for you. Cheers man

@@ManSantFaB I appreciate the reply. I am ok with her not being great. I play Kayo or Rhinar every week. Have won the weekly armory event for nearly 3 months straight. The guys have just started bringing troll decks and not trying anymore. I feel a little bad. So was looking for something a slighly different. I have this list except for Ophidia but haven't put any time on Levia yet. I want to still be competitive and not lay down and let them win but I am ok if she isn't optimal.

Why is Dash IO your "second worst match up" is it just the fact she can be faster
@ManSantFaB23 күн бұрын
I explained it a bit at 14:30 , but mainly these are decks that shorten the game drastically. Levia excels in about a ~7 turn game. She needs that pace to have ~2 turns pre blood debt, ~2 turns with blood debt, 1 flip turn, 2 turns to kill. That's about as fast as she can go barring back to back Bloodrush draws. When the game is condensed, you either miss flip or don't even have great payoff and can't Doomsday. Dash and Zen also have very scary 'endgames' because they will go wide on breakpoints. Hard to block when you have to turn off Blood Debt with no flip.

@RinuaIАй бұрын
Hi, Laurin here. Ilias was referring to the fact that your Husk doesn‘t get destroyed when you flip into Consumed because it only gets destroyed at the start of your next turn. So your opponent has to decide if they want to attack or just let the husk get destroyed and not attack.
