Major Update is Here —Jan. 4, 2019

Over the couple of months I have been tinkering with another Queen Marchesa build relying more on multiplayer politics and having a fun thematic win-con. Then the card Revel in Riches got printed with an entire slew of treasure-related cards. The final push came when C18 arrived with a bunch of new political cards like Coveted Jewel. These few events made me want to try it out as voltron was getting pretty stale for me and I'm pretty sure my playgroup is sick of this deck too.

Since my playgroup was on a power trip recently (people weren't enjoying the game as much anymore) I've decided to finally scrap the entire voltron concept. I present everyone my new-born deck "Legitimacy: The Treasure of Politics". I will be updating the primer as well as tightening up the deck list as I playtest it over the next few weeks.

Diggin' the changes, Enral!. Really love the addition of Silent Arbiter. Think it could also work really well with Iroas, God of Victory!

Here are a few cards you could consider for your Sunforger Package Crackling Doom, Kolaghan's Command, Hide / Seek, Wear / Tear, and Utter End.

Steelshaper's Gift and Relic Seeker are both really cost effective ways to get the equipment you're looking for. You could also run Masterwork of Ingenuity to double up on a good equipment.

Brass Squire is a cheap way to get past equipment costs.

Akiri, Line-Slinger, Kari Zev, Skyship Raider, and Swiftblade Vindicator are cheap minions that hold weapons very well.

Excited to see what changes you make to the deck, Enral! I think Swiftblade Vindicator is pretty great; I tried him over Grand Abolisher for a while. I personally was having trouble with vigilance and dealing with flying attackers. Reconnaissance and Brave the Sands were very useful, and the latter was bonkers with tokens in play. Serra Ascendant and Aurelia, Exemplar of Justice put in a lot of work for me as well.

Also noticed you're running Tithe now over Teferi's Protection. Is that just to get out Mistveil Plains asap? How useful has it been for you?
