This is kinda early but I can’t wait.
Well I finally have a second very much working Songhai deck that is to my liking.
The reason I like it is - first, the deck contains most of the cards I like from Songhai (the others are contained in the other).
Second - he is not dummy friendly. when playing correctly it racks up wins. when played loosely, positioned poorly, or without a system you might end up with a lose or a few losses and have to avenge them from 3 time tourney winner.
The deck started as scarzig Reva, ventured through seeker squad then control bombard, then this.
This is the core of it all with a few extra ticks.
In first look it does seem like normal reva staff with odd choices around, however I don’t think I ever used do much brain to put up something.
The conclusion is a nice deck that racked up winning streaks until today when I was a little off and got stopped at diamond 2.
Things in the deck and base rules -
Our control tools: painter, poison panda, ki beholder.
Draw: gutatsu, jammer (or bakezori), bandit.
Removal baits: ki beholder and everything we want.
Win condition: zendo and everything.
The strategy varies with the different matches and the opening hand.
You might want to keep jammer, and panddo.
Throughout the game:
Against solo generals - pack your buffs, zendos and ranged.
You basically drop zendo and you win + they salt on you in chat.
Against swarm decks - you are good as long as you got panda + Deathstroke seal + gutatsu (inner focus when you need to save your life) and a board.
Once poison panda erase his board (timing is VERY important and crash his soul, you go in with the buffs, zendo, ranged and finish the job.
Your shiro is what makes your baits more baits. you position carefully around it either to dish more damage by ranged or by zendo’s effect.
Either way this will ensure that most of your minions are out of plasma’s range and are one move spell from blowing up whatever.
I got really lazy all of the sudden, so I’ll wrap it in a few lines.
Zendo is your killing power (that’s why you have 3 of him).
Most of the time you will buff a unit and let it hit twice with the zendo effect, some other time you’ll chain zendo into buffed zendo or inner focus a zendo for quick 6 damage.
The reason I place the deck right now is - i had so much success with it until now, almost a big long win streak (against gold, diamond and countless s rank matches)that I feel like if I will try I’ll get to s rank with it (diamond 2 is pretty close too).
Hope you’ll enjoy it.
P.s - the position decks part of Songhai are no joke, I feel the same brain gears as when I play vanar, boy it is fun.
edit:
just reached s rank with the list, the final version varies between a few options however this is the main one:
i switched the shiro for furry wild piggy for the rush, early hand size keeping and the matches where zendo is either not found or get removed.
as the saying goes “give a furry pig a sword and he’ll know what to do”
i must thank all the hard meta matchups that made me and reva panick to the world and back, killed us a bunch of times and gave zendo the opportunity to kill so many times.
