Information

Uses Second Sight, Twinning Ritual, Nesting Avisaur, and even Messenger Hawk to get an effectively unlimited supply of increasingly powerful Clockroaches or to power up Hibernating Behemoths and gain health to survive any opponent attacks.Seek Answers gives either power if short or non-power cards to draw into a Clockroach or other combo pieces. The market has a couple options to accelerate card draws to offset the greediness of the deck for card draws. The Insatiable Serasaur is good for longer games where I have a lot of power built up.

Just for fun, the Lumen Reclaimer allows the deck to last forever, though there shouldn't really be much any use for it.

This deck needs crowns.
zixandan Edited Eternal Version: 1.46.7
I had Crown of Possibilities in the deck before, but it didn't really seem to contribute enough for the random effect to be worth it. Real bummer since the idea of getting random abilities on units I draw goes so nicely with the deck.
I also thought about The Winter Crown but the deck generally doesn't ping the enemy much for damage until it's gotten big enough clockroaches or behemoths to steamroll anyway. I do have a few flyers though, so I might ought to give it a shot.

If you're talking about Crown of Possibilities, I had a couple in the deck before, tried it in the market later, and found that they just didn't quite seem to add as much as I needed them to. I was pretty bummed about it too, since it's such a cool card.

Thanks for sharing but I think that if your opponent will eliminate the clockroachs in our deck - you're done
zixandan Eternal Version: 1.46.7
Yeah, it's definitely not the best deck around, but I'd never gotten a clockroach deck to even be decent until I rebuilt it recently. I've had one person silence all my clockroaches and that definitely made me lose that game, but it hasn't happened often. And even then, I can fall back on the hibernating behemoths, insatiable serasaur, or even curiox if they don't have too much flying.

Thanks for the reply, I would also add 1-2 crown of possibilities maybe.
