Every single unit in this deck plays a role.
We all know how evil
Piercing Grief can get with crown. With 2 ways to recursion the grief, you will not be able to get over your grief, sinking deeper.
Temple Scribe is good for chump blocking, getting those sweet HPs, and that draw, it can be replaced, but with that draw power it has saved me before.
Amber Acolyte helps fix our 2/1/2 influence base, as well as increasing it further for great shenanigans.
Auralian Merchant now has two ways to get a
Crown of Possibilities which makes it really powerful. The
Moondial is good for end game draw power for your never-ending depression.
Clockroach always a staple in crown decks... maybe the bugs help?
Dread is one of the heroes in this deck, and a cause for more insanity. Fun fact, Dread completely ignores the end of the turn relationship, meaning that a Piercing Grief (already destiny'd) can be used as a blocker. If this card gets echo/Destiny, they will never stop coming, and your field will end up full of overwhelming dread.
This deck pops. Please let me know if you think there should be any updates.
