Information

Hooru beats everything in expedition, EXCEPT it cannot beat an opponent who plays a single copy of The Creation Project. Enter Disrupt - it's garbage, but you can afford a garbage card in every other matchup (and sometimes the silence does something).

Thanks for sharing this deck, I love it! I know it's already been discussed, but I'm definitely on team Display of Survival x 4. I've been running a similar list, but no Disrupt, and I sub in two copies of Skycrag Synthesis for Spire Loyalist. I haven't had much difficulty getting to 3 Blue by turn 3 or 4 consistently.

Hi! Is there a good substitute for Stormhalt Plating?? Thanks
LightsOutAce Eternal Version: 22.12.09
There really isn't - nothing else stabilizes and locks up wins in the late game while also being useful early game (gaining life and being a power). Spire Loyalist is an extremely scuffed version you could use, but it will cost you relevant win percentage.
Seb9011 Eternal Version: 22.12.09
I understand the emphasis on wanting to have answers for project, is Disrupt truly better than just adding copies 3 and 4 of Display? While I understand this may be mildly based in hindsight of what turned up at worlds, display is just so much more versatile when it comes to being removal, answering grumbo and turning larger things into 1/4's, not to mention being a cantrip and aegis being occasionally relevant. I know turning project into a 1/4 isn't as good as clean answers but I feel it's prob worth the versatility of display.
LightsOutAce Eternal Version: 22.12.09
Display is a way, way better card that costs PPP in a deck with 8 J sigils. You're not likely to cast it before 5 or 6 power.

If you are seeing a lot of Syl's Stronghold and Cloudscraper, cut the Spire Loyalists for Resonance Waves and the Disrupts for another Display and Boundless Knowledge or Argenport Noble.

I made this deck and played it to master's quite easily. It's a good deck. I like it. Thanks for posting it.

Is Disrupt really better than Resonance Wave though?
LightsOutAce Eternal Version: 22.12.09
I'm not 100% on that, but silencing a unit is better than giving +6/+6, and 3< 4. If there are too many Cloudscrapers and Syl's Strongholds for Spire Loyalist to not be embarrassing, then playing Resonance Wave as your supplemental inscribe makes a lot of sense and gives you space for another Boundless Knowledge or Display or Argenport Noble.
