Learning from Losses (#2) The Best Standard Selection for Equalizer?

Coming up against one of the best players like @jacekw is ONLY going to happen to me early on in the season, before he disappears off to C1 and I get stuck battling with everyone else with lesser decks.

But, putting the fact that I was never going to win aside because of the card imbalance, and probably wouldn't win against him even if I did have a maxed deck, it's interesting to see what a top player chooses as their line up

The Rule Set - Silenced summoners and Equalizer

So what we've got here from the player who finished in number one position last season is possibly your best shot at winning with Equalizer...

1. Lord A in first, standard.
2. Cornelus in second, also standard.
3. Centauri Mage - a nice paring with the Spirit
4. The Sporcer - Ideal buffs for this ruleset.
5. Sandworm - kind of surprised me.
6. Spirit of the Forest - Perfect pair with Cornelus.

Anything surprising here?

Well for me, yes, sneak and snipe together in Equalizer - I personally avoid them in this ruleset, thinking it's always better to pound one monster at a time.

Everything else makes total sense.

I might have to give that sneak, snip strategy a try... if it works for JaceKW it can't be far wrong, with this exact ruleset of course?

NB I usually win with this ruleset.

However the ONLY strategy I've got against such a player is play some 'good but odd' cards in the hope that it left-fields him, I'd usually always aim to play affliction, poison and cleanse in equaliser but just went with a slightly more random selection, it didn't work.

It's all part of the game.
