Combos, love em or hate em —Aug. 22, 2018
This deck has been headed more towards utilizing combos as the meta has been shifting into being combo oriented and dealing enough combat damage to multiple players before they go off has been taxing. With that said Bitter Ordeal has been pretty amusing and won me a couple of games along with Altar of Dementia.
The general cleric load up has currently been tuned more for control and pillow fort in case I have to stall to dig for a reanimation setup. The Ur-Dragon has been a bit of a pain at times so I am hoping that Songstitcher and Whipgrass Entangler in addition to the old damage prevention clerics Master Apothecary and Battletide Alchemist will help slow the flying beat stick tide down enough.
I have also added a generally useful and flexible enchantment package for Academy Rector to exploit for combat (True Conviction), reanimation (Debtors' Knell, Animate Dead) and removal (Grasp of Fate) options while having said options be useful enough to warrant use without cheating it in if I have to. Still waiting on Arena Rector.
I have been growing weary of Protean Hulk Flash shenanigans that end with loss and have added Containment Priest back in after a long time with the hopes of dealing with the insanity, even if it can hamper my own plays.
