Hey everyone,
I now that most people in my play groups are starting to get a number of decks I was thinking of deciding which 3 of my decks I would have as my gauntlet if we got an event going.
When making a Guantlet would you prioritize decks based on
1)Diversifying the strategies present
2)Making all 3 strategies similar
3)Ignoring individual deck strategy and just choosing the decks that you think are the best
Pros for option 1:
More options for choosing a deck that you think will be better vs your opponent's spread.
More diversity, much harder to have a subset of cards knock you out consistently
Con for option 1/Pro for option 2:
If your opponent has elected for option 2 they can ban whichever deck counters them the hardest, then you are only allowed 1 win with the deck that is the 2nd best against that strategy, and are left with your deck that is weakest to what they are doing to finish the last games.
Con for option 2:
Your opponent can just identify which one of your decks is the best at what all 3 are aiming to do and ban that one.
Pro for Option 3:
You are playing with your 3 best/favorite decks!
I think I like option 2 the best, but I definitely can see an argument for any of the 3.
