oh right... but Anarch Revolt and Dramatic Upheaval weren't bad for the
game?
I'd rather play against a deck like this than Anson AR malarkey.
Wall decks are now becoming more of a feasible concept, not anywhere
NEAR dominating or broken, I think. Much too early to be complaining
about this sort of thing.

Interesting deck btw. Not often you see pure AUS win.

Well I saw one year's winners, it was Tremere, auspex and thaumaturgy
(fast reaction and burst of sunlight, amongst other things).

There was another year I heard about that an intercept gun deck that
won, that could well have been pure AUS.
Yeah these sort of weenie intercept decks seem to go well at ECs, but I
think that's got quite a lot to do with metagame.
for example, any decent combat deck would have torn those weenies with
their saturday night specials and DBRs into shreds. But I saw listings
of the top 50 or so decks at an EC one year, and combat decks were very
few and far between. Weenie intercept with weapons seems a great deck
to beat weenie vote or weenie bleed, but not a whole lot else. At least
that's my take on it.

It all depends on the type of combat deck. For small bleeders,
you require small thugs. If you have just a couple of combat
gods, you'll get overwhelmed before you can do must anything.
Intercept combat can stop weenies pretty effectively, but only
if it has more wakes and less intercept. (An Atonement can just
stop a weeny deck cold!)

well, in a direct match-up it´s certainly true that a combat deck will
beat up the weenies. but on a 5 player table where the combat deck has
to fight against two players and is target of misdirected bleeds etc..
the situation maybe completely different.

the real problem of weenie aus are tables without aggressive bleed (and
probably vote) decks no momentum to abuse for the own cause ...

Oh, that's cute. What are the pulled fangs for? Just use with
precog?

I still say it depends on the size of the combaters, though.

true to some extend, but a lot of minions grant you some offensive potential

True. But the weenie AUS will just never let you pass the Atonement
action. Problem solved.
