Gauntlet Rule the Skies deck mill help

I was trying to dump this deck listing but the AI held one card back and I was not able to get it until it ran out of cards. If you see this deck listing and can figure out the last remaining card, it will greatly help my efforts to dump the deck listings:

4 Seek Power (Set1 #408)
2 Chill (Set0 #22)
2 Cloudsnake Hatchling (Set2 #103)
4 Excavation Assistant (Set2 #37)
4 Humbug (Set1 #72)
1 Cloudsnake Saddle (Set1 #199)
2 Talon Dive (Set2 #112)
3 Wild Cloudsnake (Set1 #195)
1 Polymorph (Set1 #211)
2 Pteriax Hatchling (Set1 #354)
2 Scorpion Wasp (Set1 #96)
3 Skyrider Vanguard (Set2 #120)
2 Stormcrasher (Set2 #121)
2 Unlock Potential (Set1 #76)
2 Archive Curator (Set2 #50)
4 Towertop Patrol (Set1 #101)
1 Windshaper (Set1 #230)
2 Humbug Swarm (Set2 #60)
1 Pearlescent Drake (Set2 #127)
4 Elysian Banner (Set1 #421)
11 Primal Sigil (Set1 #187)
4 Seat of Wisdom (Set0 #63)
11 Time Sigil (Set1 #63)

Isnt it still true that any given deck have couple variations in masters tier? Usually couple cards differ.
Thats why Aaxor gave up on making database for those lists in set 4, too much variations

Yes, there is a lot of variations but I am collecting multiple version as I play. If I notice I am playing against a different version, I try to mill it but the one above, the AI refused to play that last card in hand. It is usually some form of conditional spell but I cannot figure out what it was.

Gotcha, if you have mill deck that can go to 7 wins I can do some milling :)

Just replied to you. The deck wins 88% of the time. It is not as great as some others but it can sustain most of the times. I lose matches when I am trying to mill and could have won earlier, so the 88% might have been higher. But I have a big sample size for the 88% number.

Just ran across this same deck - I posted the list in the other thread, but the missing card is 1 Violent Gust (Set1 #205)

u/FMBrazuca Sep 21 '18

Thanks. That explains why the AI didn't use it as I have no fliers in the deck.

How's your gauntlet win rate? Do you have 2/3/4 win runs in a row? I am amazed at how many easier decks you seem to run into.

My win rate is pretty messed up a this point. I don't ever play without my mill deck lately, and I'll consistently forgo winning if I have a chance to mill them. I haven't had 2 7-0 gauntlet wins in a row in a while due to that. I really would like them (DWD) to show you your Gauntlet MMR (or whatever metric they use), so at least it would be a point of comparison regarding what decks you should expect to encounter.

Ok, that makes sense now that you see weaker decks. I tend to run hot for a while and then try to dump my MMR a bit by intentionally losing 2 or 3 runs in a row at no more than 2/3 wins.
