I played fatigue Oldhim at 2021 nats in Orlando. I went 0-5 in my CC with 4 games going to time and I conceded most of those. In the end I couldn’t live with myself so I quit playing Oldhim. I realized that my opponents dreaded the games we were playing. There was an intense amount of anxiety on both sides especially when the stakes were high. I realized that inducing stress and anxiety was not what I was playing Flesh and Blood for, it was what I was trying to escape. I felt like I was doing a disservice to LSS with their mission statement of bringing people together to play great games. I just wanted to share my experience with this style of deck. Appreciate your dedication to the game in all honesty. Best of luck to everyone.
Ya, I feel in a weird spot right now. I spent a lot of $$$ to build up Oldhim, loved his art and flavour, took the hits on Crown, Tunic, CnC, Estrike. Aggro / midrange Oldhim feels underpowered with many tools gone. If this is the future for him, I’m ready. But if this list gets too good, can see Crown biting the ban as well. Don’t know where to go with him. But great insight with the video. Much appreciated.
I'm with ya. I think midrange Oldhim is still extremely strong with Titan's Fist. You'll need to change the playstyle to utilise more 4 cost guardian attacks - Endless, Chokeslam, Mulch etc. And play your standard midrange game e.g. CnCs, pummels. Winter's Wail is busted but crown and shield as a combo is still the primary reason to play Oldhim imo!
Thank you! I think with this particular deck, going first is almost always correct as opening with any of the 9 life gain spells, imposing visage, hypothermia, channel lake or insidious chill will start you with a big advantage :)
I think your list is really cool and I will try it out at our locals Since Winters Wail and Hypothermia are banned, would you just run Titans Fist and another Ice Card?
Enjoy! Absolutely - the deck hardly got affected by the bans, in fact it's probably stronger now with Iyslander and Fai nerfs. I would probably max out on Insidious Chills as a 3 cost ice, and run an extra blue 6 power as a popper in place of the 3 Hypothermias.

Good video! Adjusting to how the game is going to go is key! And the mind tax on odd numbers is so key! totally counts!
How are you feeling about a return to fatigue after outsiders??

I saw Dennis on Grindr once
Thanks for the video, it's great!
Is there any MU where you don't wanna go 1st?
Lexi maybe?
And what would you take out for the 1 sledge?
Thank you!

Do you want everyone at your local to hate you?
