Her core competency is leveraging the synergies to maximize the deliverables. With a strong Soldier tribal theme, obvs.

I'm searching for cards that will allow this deck to manipulate combat mechanics, similar to Master Warcraft and Odric, Master Tactician , or even Reconnaissance . Please post suggestions if you know of similar cards that let the controller dictate blocking assignments.

I built this deck because Winota's ability strikes me as a chance to overcome the inherent card-disadvantage in W/R. Namely, there aren't many budget options.

In an attempt to extract value, the non-human soldiers tend to be low on the curve, whereas the human soldiers tend to be higher on the curve.

Future drafts may add "extra-combat-after-this-one" effects, as budget allows.
