Interesting choices.  Very well done with a WL most people have written off entirely.

I'd love to hear how you ran this deck and who you faced. Congratulations!

The deck was teched against elites, which I expected to see a lot of (Fiend out of DE and Necron and Soul Grinder/Possessed/Helldrake out of Chaos). Harriers were meant to ping low HP cappers to set up PFPs on larger units while also being able to survive Fiend triggers. PFP bypasses both Fall back and Backlash, making it an excellent tool under the right circumstances. Unfortunately, I played against zero of those deck types.

 

In order, I played Shadowsun, Mavros, Worr, Kith, Shadowsun, Morn, with losses to Mavros and Kith. Top 16 loss was against Eldorath.

Thanks for the info. It is interesting that you saw zero elite decks. I've heard others say they were facing elites all day. I guess that is the state of the meta. Great job making the top cut against decks you were not built to beat.

Elites were indeed everywhere!
