Very nice decks. I really like the Turbo Tezz deck. Do you know how it does versus Oath?

[wette]

I can't say much about the pairing against oath cause I've never played the deck, but this list have been top8ing every tournament since a couple of players started playing it, so the deck must be huge. Maybe PEACH can say something more about it, can you?

Hi Wette and kooaznboi1088 ,

I will send your queries to the team responsible for such impresive resoults and post them here (or ask them to post them theirselves).

Hi,

As one of the team members, and the one that usually plays the oath deck, i will try to ansewer the question. It's obious, but it depends a lot on the kind of oath shell that you use.

From the tezzert point of view i think that que dragon oath is the best matchup, as also the ones that abuses from mana denial (Waste/Strip), your mana base is rock solid, and you can "combo" faster than they. On the other hand,I think that this is reversed when we talk about the ones that abuse, or are centered (Like the one that I usually play) on the role of control thx to Iona, and also packs the "tonto combo" (Key/Vault). If Iona hits the battelfield, the things will look so bad, and the two decks have the same amount of cheap counter magic.

Post side the things will go better for the Tezz player, thx to spell snare and duress, but it also depends on the side strategy of oath player.

Hope this helps.

Thank you. Good luck with this deck too! I hope you guys top 8 even more
