Personally I would go for
Piranas
and I don't even use their pillz manipulation ability because I don't like it (except for
Selma)
I usually choose:
Tula,
Tyd,
Ulrich,
Taljion,
Ector (never use
Baba, but I guess he is also ok)
for 4 and 5 stars I choose colridge,
Raeth and
Kristin (of course
Scubb is also hard to resist) and
Selma
they have selection of cards which suit your playstyle
if you want to play with pillz manipulation, they got
Hawkins,
Hawkins Noel,
Bonnie Ld,
Smokey Cr,
Scubb, sherly,
Katan, dalhia and
Selma
if you want a deck with solid card,
Tyd,
Ector, etc would suit you
of course
Nightmare is good, but never really like them even for T2
maybe because I think azgorth is just another
Tyd with ability
or
Pan is heal which cannot reduce opp life (unlike
Ector thus less chance for KO)
or because
Glorg has too low power (and none of their 4 stars good enough except
Oshitsune which banned and
Azel)
or because
Karrion is the only decent 5 stars in
ELO and his ability is same with
Azel (one of few ok 4 stars for
Nightmare) which means you cannot use both in your deck
