Better description coming soon. Basically a deck meant to play big threats combined with removal and card advantage engines and some hand disruption to grind out a win. Playtested vs Mardu Vehicles and G1 can be hard if they have a really really fast draw, but they playset of Manglehorn in the SB come in strong in 2 and 3. More testing soon, but the deck seems powerful vs a variety of strategies.
