Hi, this is the deck I used to reach masters rank -3 in a very small number of games. It's relatively similar to the skycrag deck that darkrevenger used to win last seasons LCQ, except it abuses the fact that
Nico, Urban Hunter does not have an influence gate to generate infinite card advantage instead of only +1. This list includes
Know When to Hold 'em as a way to have access to more copies of Nico, and the rest of the deck revolves around continuously discarding and recycling her with 1 damage pings. One of the strongest things this deck can do is play out
Autotread after drawing Nico, which can now deal infinite damage and gain infinite stats equal to your power without costing any cards from hand.
Here are some of the decks best combos:
Autotread +
Nico, Urban Hunter
Autotreads ability both discards a card and activates frenzy, which means that if you use it to discard Nico you will immediately draw her from the void. You can do this repeatedly as many times as you want without spending any actual cards from hand, so the only limitation is your power.
Know When to Hold 'em +
Nico, Urban Hunter
Since we're using Nico as a discard outlet and never intend to cast her, the five turn lock from kwthe isn't actually relevant. It allows us to have access to 8 total copies of Nico, which I think is the main reason to play skycrag over other frenzy decks like SS.
Crafty Occultist +
Nico, Urban Hunter
This is a lot like using crafty with
Jotun Hurler before it was nerfed, except you end up with even more card advantage from being able to recycle Nico and continue discarding her afterwards. The easiest way to recur Nico after discarding her to crafty is by inscribing
Serpent Hive, which is why I would recommend generally playing crafty before you play a power in this deck. If you successfully discard Nico to crafty and then recur her, it's like you played a 3 cost 4/4 that drew two cards (which is a fairly solid 3 drop).
Eilyn, Hand of the Tempest +
Autotread (+
Nico, Urban Hunter)
Eilyn is a card that has a pretty decent base rate as an attacking 4 cost 5/5 Flying, Aegis unit that inevitably casts
Channel the Tempest. She's very difficult to remove efficiently thanks to her high health stat and keywords, and becomes ridiculous when followed by
Autotread. The first activation of Autotread effectively pays 1 power to deal 6 (5+1) damage, and then every further activation is a rate of 2 damage for 1 power. Every time you activate frenzy also reduces the cost of Eilyn's ultimate by 1, so you can start to see how this curve puts on immense pressure while threatening lethal (or at least a lot of damage and value) the turn after.
Jekk, Mercenary Hunter +
Nico, Urban Hunter
Jekk is another way to abuse Nico to pay for his discard costs while generating infinite value over the course of a game. It works the same way that
Autotread does, so if you discard Nico then the damage he deals afterwards will immediately recur her from your void. It's also strong and often better to use Jekk on a sigil after you already have Nico in the void, since it deals more damage and still pays for his discard cost when you redraw her.
Kenna, Uncontained + enemy unit
U kill it and make a 4/5 which is kind of op
😜😜😜
😔😔😔
and thanks! I'm not actually masters, but I could see how you might be confused by the terminology. I meant that I'm in (masters rank - 3), as in a sort of math equation, where masters rank is a known variable and we're subtracting 3 from it. In the context of eternal, masters rank can be translated to a 13, so the simplified equation is this; (13 - 3 = 10). If we use the same method for translating masters rank into a number, 10 roughly turns into Diamond III, which is my actual rank :D
