How are you supposed to beat Wall Faie?

#12

Beating Wall Faie is quite dependent on their draw and what deck you play.

If they have a good draw with early ramp, some walls, AOE and finishing combo and you have a board focused midrange deck then there is very little you can do without having tech cards. On the other hand, if you play stuff like 8 gates, Deci/spikes or burn Abyssian you won’t have much trouble against them. Also, if they don’t draw very well you can easily beat them with a board focused deck without needing tech.

Outside of trying to minimize Thunderhorn + Aspect damage to your board and staying away from walls as much as possible to avoid Flawless damage there isn’t much you can do playing wise. At the end of the day it just boils down to having more threats then they can remove and beat them down with it asap.

The matchup is mostly decided on luck and matchup unfortunately. If you struggle with them i would recommend putting some Lightbenders/EMPs into your decks. Both are good cards individually and excellent against wall Vanar.

If it doesn’t break your own deck strategy, give a try to Magesworn, it switches off Seraphim and helps versus rampant cancerous Shidai :wink:

Could you say that to me again?

I found that the best tactic was to reduce their life total to 0.

I disagree. My favorite is to play magesworn, then trap faie in a corner surrounded by sunsteels. She becomes helpless, and concedes. No need to go after life.

In all seriousness though, wall vanar is the deck of the current meta but it has lots of counters. Lightbender and or EMP go a really long way to shutting down the deck, as does any aggressive gameplan. Its always good to tech aoe and it also does well vs them. And the aforementioned magesworn if your deck can support it. But without knowing what deck you want to beat them with I cant say to much more.

It works for me, at least. Maybe my playstyle is that unpredictable, maybe my opponents are too prepared for meta decks and have no idea what’s going on when I whip out the Cleaver, maybe people assume artifacts are dead. I dunno, man/woman/cactus.

Did you just assume that I have a gender/identity?!

Well, @epicflygon’s profile says Trap. Isn’t that some kind of gender/identity?

Maybe that’s because people assume his identity and get trapped.

It doesn’t matter, always assume that everyone is transcendental and do not identify as anything, but also as everything otherwise YOU are part of the problem.

One of my Trigo teachers used my name in an exam problem a few years ago. I was always part of a problem.

Once you shed your earthly husk, you will be immortal after having given release to your individual conscience and joining the rest of the immortal souls in one large being. You will no longer be @saltystabwound, you will be one with the universe.

Tried it. It wasn’t for me. I’d rank the experience 5th greatest in my life. Right below playing through Katawa ShoujoI am a messed up person.

Literally just tech in Magesworn and/or Lightbender

#31
  • EMP or lightbender to take out walls
  • Magesworn shenanigans
  • Minions that do stuff the turn they are played. Snowball minions don’t do much against Wall Faie
  • Position around Thunderhorn
  • Out of hand damage, or efficient chip damage. For example, Magmar has efficient minions to do chip damage to build up to a decimus spikes turn. Songhai can chip with Phoenix fires and Zendo until spiral technique comes out.
  • the sentinel is always Moonlight Basilisk
