Let's keep in mind that 95% of us haven't seen 99.16% of the new set.

I'm obviously not talking to that group. If you haven't seen the set you shouldn't be voting E.

I have to say.... option E really makes no sense whatsoever. If anything, sitelock is gonna die a brutal death when the next one comes out. O_o

well lets see. a previously and COMPLETELY unchecked anti-site card with no counters WHATSOEVER now receives hard counters. this doesnt make sense to you? this doesnt make sitelock at the very least 'viable' again? ooooook.

What hard counters? Those don't exsist in ccgs. Pol is right, don't vote e if you haven't seen the set.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #29 on:** June 18, 2011, 10:16:18 AM »

From the rumors we've heard, something's hitting FB. So that would make Site Lock more viable.

falling away: hard counter. goys: hard counter. destruction of nehushtan: hard counter. holy of holies: hard counter. fishing boat: hard counter. yes, there absolutely are hard counters (as well as soft counters) in ccg's.

Smokey · « **Reply #31 on:** June 18, 2011, 01:45:34 PM »

That was a poor use of sarcasm by me, I meant to disagree with you and say boat isn't getting hard counters.

Ironica · « **Reply #32 on:** June 21, 2011, 12:27:26 PM »

Maybe ya all can clear something up. Thad is the fear of most. In order for them to have access, they have to spend two battle phases with a somewhat weaker Thad. Also, if Naz is out, they would not get a chance to get the deciple out from bottom as quickly. Also, to have constant site access (I.e. every turn), you would have to put multiple deciples into FB, which weakens Thad even more. That all sounds good to me. What am I missing?

SomeKittens · « **Reply #33 on:** June 21, 2011, 01:35:04 PM »

Disciples can use more than Thad to attack. Phil/Bart is potent in T1, and doesn't require support.

Master KChief · « **Reply #34 on:** June 21, 2011, 02:04:40 PM »

alot of players agree phil/bart will get you more rescues than thad does, especially since they're good early game.

Lamborghini_diablo · « **Reply #35 on:** June 21, 2011, 02:13:24 PM »

also, the entire concept of sitelock is to make it so they can never access the souls. Fishing boat means that they will always have the ability to gain access, and you cant really do much about it.

Confusion / Murmuring if they haven't drawn it too.

Interestingly enough, they are both hardcountered by Nazareth.

Use green david and ht to play united kingdom to band in et and centurion at capernam and then play visions to use them in a side battle.

Also ittai and some green weapon and anb maybe.

Darius' Decree is a nice counter as well.

Fix'd to make it possible.

United Kingdom

Cannot be negated if used by David. • Identifiers: OT, Connected with David • Verse: II Samuel 5:3 • Availability: Priests booster packs (Common)

Smokey · « **Reply #43 on:** June 22, 2011, 11:58:17 AM »

I think battlecry has his name in the verse, if so he can use that.
I know he can use like 3 massbands.

Fixed to make it possible with fewer cards than the Prof's example

Site lock as a LOCK is not viable, but using sites as a stall strategy is very viable. Sites can easily give you several turns to set up your defense and offense.

IF you can confusion out an opponents fishing boat than a well built site lock does still have a chance of locking out ANY deck.

czepp · « **Reply #46 on:** July 24, 2011, 10:58:32 PM »

yes: players with a weak defense, new players, and players NOT using disciples. I agree its called "Site Stall" now a days.

After PA states, I want to change my vote. Site lock is possible if you're prepared for disciples.

There's no way to lock disciples with sites, therefore sitelock is dead. Having a normal defense with a side of sitelock is different.
