i had an idea in my mind for some time now but i hadnt got the cards and it would have been bugabusing. now that the double fierce bug is fixed and i got all cards ill share this very strong (yet not perfect) deck. i have not played much with it and it is veeery hard to play. only for veterans because timing is extremely essential.
Decklist:
Resource boosts:
5x political patronage
4x heathen follower
5x divine intervention
Agents:
5x silvio barbarigo
5x mysterious stranger
Actions:
4x clothes makes the man
2x mob justice
5x tactical upheavel
3x copycat
5x man of the people
2x wrath of the righteous
5x ancestral discovery
this is just a rough sketch of the decklist because i am still tweaking alot. it doesnt do as well as i want it to do. much room for improvements and i will be thankful for every advice and try it out.
Playsection:
the synergies are amazing. everything combos with everything! the only problem is when you dont have cards to copy in your hand
examples (i might forget here alot):
followers and man of the people. i had all followers (4) out on the field and man on the people together with 2 clothes makes the man and 1 copycat in my hand. i will upload a screenshot of that my enemy was finished within a round even though he blocked 2 of my followers
silvio and man of the people:
first of all noone is going to exhaust your silvio because you have so much recover effects. second of all is that your silvio wont lose his health when he is recovering! his safe protects him. so you get a 3/7 silvio after he recovered. then you can combine it with tactical upheavel and voila you got a 7/7 fighting machine
ancestral discovery and clothes makes the man/copycat:
a divine combo. paly AD copy it and take your clothes/CC and another card back from the archive. once done this combo costs you only 2 to go on with it. infinite cardusage out of the archive for 2 costs! when you get a bad start you can abuse this combo to get income boosters of your enemy. together with the discard of divine intervention you are also able to steal the enemys strongest cards and play it against him before he gets a chance to answer. he plays against you and himself! also you can establish a discard lock if timed correctly with AD/CMTM/DI.
i am sure there are various more things but i cant mention all here
and ofc silvio and wrath should be clear here...
weaknesses:
-counterdraw if you let them counter all your silvios... (but most of the time you still got your strangers on the field then also your silvios should be on the field early due to PP )
-discard? i havent palyed against a decent discard but i guess i can make my enemy discard as much as i have to.
-rush... if you get a slow hand and dont manage to block em long enough it gets pretty close.
so thats it. i hope you like it. and also i wanted to mention this deck was an attempt to build a butcher deck with silvios instead of carnefice but that didnt work out too well (i wanna use exit stage right so badly...)
