I've been fiddling with this list for a couple of months, I really like
Imbue in Gauntlet, but the deck always felt like it was missing something.
Turns out that
something was
Alhed Ascending!
After some adjustments to the original shell, I'm finally happy with the result, despite including
Elysian Stranger: it's ugly and unelegant, but it gets the job done accelerating influence gain and actively helping in Strangers matchups. If anyone has a better solution I'm open to suggestions, I
really want to get rid of it.
Feral Mandrake needs some attention, as it can play against our gameplan. The reason being it comes into play exhausted from the void, so keep an eye on it when casting
Equivocate or using a
Plunder effect, as we might end up losing a blocking or attacking unit we didn't mean to.
That said, it fills its slot pretty nicely, it's a good target for
Xenan Initiation, and an extra
Imbue unit which
Danica, Runed Witch will turn into card draw.
So yeah, it's a weird card, I'm still getting used to it, it's probably replaceable but it's been pulling its weight so far.
Anyway, the deck isn't very hard to play, it takes a bit of practice to use efficiently but it feels good and consistent, I'm having fun with it and I can't think of anything else worth mentioning other than
GL HF!
