Decisions, Decisions…

VS 
One more week of testing before we hold the DCL Build A Legend event.
On the one hand I have my Darkseid deck. Though completely devoid of Created From Hate’s (I don’t own any), I’m able to sub in some search with Mobilize, Heroes of Two Worlds, and Call In A Favor. It manages the opponent’s resource row pretty well, and with substitute bringing in all the Mockeries it’s looking pretty solid.
On the other hand I have the Ghost Rider deck I’ve been fiddling with. The impetus for this one is split between the desire to actually have an effective Ghost Rider Legend deck, and to have a deck that doesn’t need my Mobilizes, so I can lend them to Gamerette for her Superman Legend deck (she doesn’t own any For The Man Who Has Everything’s).
The GR deck is MK/Fan4 team-up, and testing has shown me it basically works. As long as I have odds, then the 5-drop Fan4 GR can get a stun with no stunback, and then I can get a revenge hit with Chain of Vengeance. That basically won a game for me against a Fated-up Punisher this evening, when my opponent recovered her 6-drop instead of Punisher.
So here I am with a little over a week left to get in any testing I can, and I’m still torn between decks. One doesn’t have its optimum search card, the other allows me to lend key search cards to another player with a less extensive collection of cards.
And then, of course, there’s Family of Four, Punisher, Nova Blast, Dr Strange, and any other number of Legend decks floating around the periphery of my consciousness.
I’m such an indecisive bastard…
I’ve been working on a GK/Darkseid deck that uses Anti-Life, Darkseid – Destroyer of Life and four-drop Batman from DWF. Pretty nasty stuff when it works, and not too rare intensive.
[...] February, when I was rambling about what to play for the Build A Legend event. See here, here, here, and here. Apparently I was indecisive enough to ramble on about it for four entries. [...]
