Round 7 second/win gurguit
I damage deny, he calls heal for damage and history strides. I use heal to give myself 10k for turn, swing van check purple ot and I go to 3. I stride baryoend to take 3 markers, swing van and he pgs. I go for cosmic dawn loop cuz I'm short on pieces.
Got 25th at premium weekend just falling short of getting link joker flair. I played deletor Messiah, absolutely my favorite deck to play but I need to practice more as I haven't played much premium.
Matchups
Round 1 first/win Crest night rose
They whiffed crest, and I just farmed my pieces until I hit turn 5 where I strode excelics for game. Was a bit worried the turn prior as they ditched 2 honoly off of Obadiah, but they only called and popped 1 so I was able to still loo
Round 6 first/lose crest stage harri
Easily the hardest matchup for link joker in my opinion. On opponents first stride turn they leave their unit on the stage and I lock it so they can't make markers. They swing van check ot, Im at 5 with 4 heals and ot in hand with no pgs.
Round 5 first/win gear chronicle
Tested into this deck a lil bit but not much. Game plan is go first and pray I kill 2nd stride. Which I go into excelics on turn 4 without angel ladder. I call two given to front and pray that they only have 1 heal in hand and they only had one.
Round 4 first/lose overlord
He had no pressure all game. Swing 13 13 23 whiff all drives for 2 turns. I go into excelics and go for loop. I swing given restand vanguard, swing dwarf 2 damage while he's at 5. Checks heal ot ending turn and he top decks a legion overlord to ride.
Round 3 first/lose narukami
I don't remember what the narukami deck was but I never played against it before. I get history stride but I'm 2 pieces away from going for excelics ok turn 4 so I opt for cosmic dawn to try to farm cards. I get one more stride after but I do nothing.
Round 2 second/win Victor
I went 2nd so I had a slight bit of hand advantage thanks to the extra 25k shield. They only saw v Victor so no history stride, and after first stride turn I locked their entire front row. The following turn I stride excelics for game
@kayharukawas Ive seen someone play lianorn with berucrea ride line. Deck thin 3 cards, if you went 2nd you give smth 5k. And on turn 2 u get a free draw. Thats about it tho
