Legend of the Five Rings Decks

Berserkers and Politicians... Welcome to 2018 Mid-term elections!

First try to use the new Crab role.

I am a phoenix player and I built this deck to show my friend I could make a crab deck that is better than his since he refuses to take advice from others while being extremely arrogant and obnoxious about his deck.

Use Miya Satoshi to get your keepers and holdings into the discard, build giant towers of attachments on expensive characters and keep them forever.

Swiss rounds were pretty easy.I made it to top 8 with a 5-1

First round was vs Crane that it is one of my worst matchups but i had a great dynasty breakdown so i snowballed and broke stronghold in turn 3

Second round was vs a very good scorpion player that made me pretty anxious,i made a stronghold break at turn 6 never been under 5 honor the whole game

Third round I lost vs a lion(7th turn) that had a magistrate that pretty much made me something less than nothing xD and i had no rout,both of us hit eachothers stronghold twice.

Fourth round was a scorpion match up. It was scorpion dropbear spending no fate at any character he got so i won by turn 3

Fifth round was vs a phoenix that got me pretty low on honor but i had a stronghold break at turn 4 after getting him choked by card and field pressence.

Sixth round was a hard but fast game(21 min game) vs a scorpion we both had assasinations being played in turn 1 and 2 getting us to 3-4 honor each round we bid low so we had dynasty control,mines and a good court games won the field pressence so i got a stronghold break in round 5.

Top 8

Top 8 match was the most difficult game of the tournament for me.Crab vs Crab.I broke 4 provinces i had never bid 1 in the whole game but still had some honor left. I broke 3 provinces with iron mines on them so i could get the field pressence and pressured his card draw. he had early keeper iniciates so i focused on getting the earth ring in both offence and defence.I broke his stronghold at turn 10 with a force of 27.

Top 4

I played vs a very good player from our country the only one that had a 6-0 on swiss.I had a good dynasty/conflict but i tried to rush it down to his stronghold so i made a few missplays in the proccess that made me lose some key units early. I had no other choice but get a high bid to get me saved. Lost by dishoning eventually.

Finished top crab

Swiss rounds
4-1 in the swiss rounds(hoped for more rounds but it was a one day event) all of the swiss round games were 30-45 minutes.I finished almost first each time.
I lost from my best friend's Crane/phoenix in the last swiss round,he scored 5-0
Top 8
I played vs a Lion deck,i had the field advantage from the start so my deck snowballed
Top 4
I was nearly dishonored from a Scorpion/phoenix player.I high bidded twice to get the field superiority,almost lost from a display of power and the abuse of air ring
Final
I met again with my friend's Crane/Phoenix. It was a big game,he had me cornered for the four first rounds he broke 3/5 of my provinces and hit my stronghold twice.Our honor was even,he discarded 9 cards from my hand in total.I was breaking 1 province each round so he had only the stronghold province to protect.After wasting all of our good cards i made a good military attack and got his stronghold killed
