Anyone else getting really tired of playing against almost all Koth decks in QB?

    Well, I guess they could tweak the matchmaking algorithm so that out of the 2000 Koth decks in your group, only a tiny number get faced as your opponent, to give you more variety. But I'm not sure the purists would support that...

    I also noticed that when I play with L2 for a bit, considering I have no support removal in her deck, I get matched up against white decks all running Silverstrike much more frequently. Like the algorithm says "Hey, there's a weakness in your deck, I'm going to drill you until you fix it". Except, I don't have any support removal for black except that Mockery of Nature card.... which doesn't really fit in the deck.

    I often feel like the same thing is happening, although it's probably my imagination.

    Maybe this reflects the percentage of Koth decks being played by people in qb?

    Personally I say bring on the Koth decks and leave out Lilliana 1 decks. I rarely lose to either but L1 takes three times as long.

    throw journal in your deck and you should be OK
    try some of jace 2 control decks.. matches could go for over 30 minutes

    silverstrike is very useful in a white deck. if you are facing
    a white deck without silverstrike then maybe it's because
    a kill spell is used. it probably has nothing to do with
    your deck weakness, it's not like they're spamming hixus/
    suppression bonds at you. mockery of nature has rarely
    helped me in my liliana1 deck against silverstrike.
