Title: You want to kill speed? Forget the NJ rule, try this!
Post by: SomeKittens on October 22, 2011, 07:21:53 PM: At a timeout, whoever has the most cards in their deck wins. If there's a tie, go to normal timeout scoring.

Wouldn't everyone just play 154 card stall decks with the only goal to make the opponent draw cards?
It wouldn't be "Rescue the Souls", it would be "My deck is bigger than yours".

...and? No more speed, everyone should be happy!

Post by: JSB23 on October 23, 2011, 02:42:29 PM: This is a very bad idea because it's possible to create an unbeatable deck, if you never draw then you can't lose.

If you never draw your opponent will crush your defense.

if you never draw, you don't draw LSs and soul gen? I just won't make rescues so you can't block with your soul gen Defense.

The beautiful thing is I can set all this up without you even laying down a card, I know it works, the defense has been used quite successfully in T2.
Switching it to T1 is child's play.
