Information

So I was browsing cards that I did not own and came across Align the Tesseract. The 12 cost made me shrug at first, but the reduction of up to 12 (For the not so math inclined, 12-12 = 0) made it sounds like it could be playable. After a quick rundown of shadow / primal grenadins, I realized that there's so many cheap options that it could somewhat be viable.

So here we are, trying stuff that I've never tried before for shits and giggles, mostly. Does it win? Yes, I won several gauntlets with this contraption. Is this the best? Not by any stretch of the imagination.

I also listed this under WIP as in, I've tried this for a few hours and couldn't wait to share it with someone. There are probably better options for a few cards here, but the amount of grenadins is quite low overall since we do not have fire influence and as a result, we can't swap them too much. We could probably change the numbers of each of them, but most edits to the list would probably simply remove them as they're pretty bad overall.

The market could probably change a lot, but I liked the idea of floating 3 / 4 power with a Wilderness Delivery in hand and being able to counterspell pretty much anything.

The biggest problem is single huge threats, and worse so if they have aegis. Adding more removal might solve this problem, but it reduces the number of grenadins you draw, making Align the Tesseract unplayable. You can stall the board for quite a long time with Razorbot and Razorblades, especially if you managed to get a Linrei's Codex online to give them flying.

The Replication Cell sounds incredible in theory, but in practice, you need 8 power to sacrifice / recreate a unit or you just end up down a unit for a whole turn. It is still useful though.

Notable interactions:

Sacrificing Sparking Vermin to cast Align the Tesseract will cast the snipe after the big boy is on the board, so it's an immediate 2 cards draw.
The Counterfeiter lets you sacrifice Governor Sahin to the Tesseract
