Yeah, it isn't fool-proof, but I've had better luck with that strategy than the Dodo/Sabotender/Couerl/Ixal/Godbert deck. Though that might be because I got only the most general gist of how to pilot it (getting into CCG terms now!) from two short matches shown in a minute and a half Youtube video. I don't know what baits are supposed to go where since the key point in the Ixal/Godbert deck is getting the Ixal in the upper right corner to chain everything rather than Dropping the Bomb (I will never stop calling it that).
Also, it just seems like the starter deck, once you get the feel for using it against the King, has a lot more flexibility in dealing with his alternate plays. Even just causing an early plus to flip his Godbert and his Bahamut or what have you can put you ahead just enough to eke out a win. Just save Sabotender and Bomb for those, since those three sets of three will help make or break the match. Dodo, Mandragora, and Couerl are mainly there as bait.
