Winning opposed battles is a lot easier for defensive decks in Bushi, I think - there are less problematic cards to deal with, and defensive actions are bountiful. With a deck like this, you can sit back and honour out safely with Kamikos, beat down military with your Yojimbos, or switch to the attack vs. other defensive decks, should they accelerate better than you.

Welcome to the Dojo and thanks for posting your deck list! It was good to finally meet you face to face and flip some actual cardboard.
I seem to remember that you had Ward of Air in there somewhere, as it was the one thing that allowed you to do unto me and then eject. At any rate, a very effective deck that worked as a Phoenix deck should.

Thank you, and my pleasure! Indeed it was, though hearing that you were running Crab Swarm, I think I'm glad that we played each other in Bushi, and not in the main event!
Could be; I tried to keep my deck together, though, so this should be right. I believe I was ejecting with Tempest of Air, since it not only ejects, but gains honour AND increases province strength! For TCS, I am definitely thinking it should be in my Bushi deck, and if I build around it, might be that it could make Phoenix Honour even better! (Though with a POSITIVE numeral, I'm thinking that you can't do things like make Touch the Emptiness -3, but giving a province +3 strength with send home could be good, especially after Stealing the Candle's Flame on 3!)
