Probably, I'm not sure though.
Shino +Greater Earth Ele turn 6 as player 1? Totally possible.

Btw guys, since all of us are posting their decks, what do you think of mine?
http://www.mmdoc.net/show_deck/7560/
Just won 3x Swiss with it, very solid deck in my opinion, I am kind of limited with my cards, otherwise I would change some of them.

Then I think you hate 90% of DoC players, especially the ones above 1500.
I am playing for fun, and I am constantly changing decks, this is just the one I play at the moment.

Why do people play these deck.. they get boaring after 100 games.. You only play them to get to 1500.
When they get there They dont have to grind anymore and can experiment again.

That is true with the Ladder, however, not if you want to win the tournament. When I am watching Enclase or Matrix.Disc playing Jackpot, there are tons of Dhamirias, Nergals, Sandalphones and Adar-Maliks(even they are playing those decks). With this deck, I never went far in Jackpot(although I didn't play much...) because after 4 wins in a row, I went to 3 Dhamirias(both Arbiters Lock and Slowpoke) and 1 Nergal Mill deck and lost pretty badly to all of them(ok, Nergal one was pretty close).
People are experimenting on the Ladder, not so much in the tourneys. You know exactly what decks are the best in the current "meta" and what have the best chance to take it all and most of people will play them if they are able to.

See why I dislike such players?
Step one: Copy broken deck from mmdoc
Step two: win.
PS: dislike =/= hate

Ok, I see your point, but still I don't understand why do you dislike them?
Why would you even play the tournament if you are doing with something that has very low chances of winning?
I didn't "copy" this deck from anyone, my previous Adar-Malik was with 3x Greater Fire Elemental, so they stay on the field after Armageddon or Forbidden Flame, but I figure it out that they cost way too much and have pretty low HP, people tend to focus them with spells and creatures anyway. This deck probably looks similar to all other Adar-Malik decks because those are clearly among the best options for him. I would try him with Banshees and Ghost Dragons but I don't have enough Banshees for it to work.
And even if someone did copy the deck, why wouldn't he copy it? What is the point of MMDoC if not to post your deck, so people can copy it, or figure out some alternatives and try it themselves?
The only thing I dislike is if someone copy some deck and start talking how he had invented it and how he is so good with it.
I create different decks and experiment all the time, I enjoy doing that, but that is for the ladder. No, I am not going to win any swiss with my Creature-Control Belias, and why would I waste my tournament tickets with it?

That's why I love arbiter lock, I helped the creator improve it with my own personal touches and have developed my own combos that nobody told me about. Many have tried to emulate it, not many have managed to do so successfully. It is a hard deck to play that requires smarts and experience so you'll see a number of players say that it sucks and that it cannot work because they tried it ^^ In fact most people do not understand how it works when they see it. Not even if you tell them the basic principles.
To this day I have not been defeated by a deck I posted and I have faced my own builds a few times

@RMZ: Simple. I'm a Johnny/Timmy kind of player, whereas they are obviously Spike players.Click for explanation
My process looks like this:
Step 1: Have an idea
Step 2: Get curbstomped
Step 3: Improve the deck
Step 4: Repeat steps 1 and 2 until it's kinda reliable
Step 5: Post on mmdoc

So, how much is it different from the one that is posted on MMDoC?

Very nice, didn't know that there is something like that.
Well, I would call myself an Johnny/Timmy/Spike player, but in the tournaments, I am currently just Spike player since I don't have big spectrum of cards(I started playing DoC a bit more seriously only 2 months ago).

Ok, finally having found the time to start playing DoC for real.
Here's a question for the experienced players among you, with an ELO above 1000 or so:
Did you invest any money to get a real boost in cards, or did you take your time buying new stuff only from the rewards?
I mean, slowly improving your deck is kinda fun, but may be a little frustrating sometimes when you meet someone with a deck with extremely superior quality of cards (and on rank 100.000 or something must clearly have invested some money to rise up fast).

i purchased 1 x 3000 seal purchase for a boost, my elo 1200 - 1300 - admittingly though it is a luck of the draw getting cards you require.
Each lvl is 100 seals, each week you should get about ±100 seal reward at end of week, if you can grind you can build up to the 1400 herald or 1200 void, ps seals are the only way to get herald and winning swiss tournies. Void you can always purchase with gold.

Yeah, I already thought about investing some real money anyway, if only to acknowledge the good work those people do and "pay up" for a game that's a lot of fun.
