The goal of the deck is to sit back and let opponents eliminate one another. Early game build up your pillow fort Ghostly Prison or place some punishment for attacking Royal Assassin. Mid-Game is where I think this will be the most fun to play. The cards are broken into 3 categories (1) "Group Slug" cards that will encourage your opponents to start ramping, dropping creatures, and attacking one another. Howling Mine and Mana Flare (2) Give creatures to opponents to let them smash into one another, Boldwyr Heavyweights, Hunted Horror, Zurgo Helmsmasher equipped with Assault Suit or gifted with Harmless Offering. Lastly (3) Deal Making. These are cards you can use to bargain. "Hey I will let you draw 2 cards if you will agree to give me back my Humble Defector at the end of your turn :)"

When the game comes down to 1:1 or there is an opening, pop a Insurrection for the win.
