It's Mono Fire Aggro but with
Haunting Scream, and a bit of combo potential.
This deck was initially very meme-y with
Gift of Battle and
Battlefield Instigator in the maindeck, trying to give
Siege Train berserk and screaming it back for 12 damage + 2 of the chosen entomb effects. Maybe I'm a bad deckbuildier, but that did not work so well (if anyone has the deckbuilding ability please go ahead).
Then I realized screaming out a train alone was good enough to close out most games, so I decided to persue early game pressure with Fire units, and moved a lot of the combo stuff to the market.
Here's the breakdown.
Mulligan:
Keep hands that meet influence requirements. If you get
Haunting Scream without a Feln power, you can plunder it for
Jekk, Mercenary Hunter or trade it to the market.
Other than that, keep your 1 drops for early pressure and feel free to keep your juicers (
Jekk, Mercenary Hunter,
Milos, Rebel Bomber,
Siege Train) as well.
Playing:
Standard mono fire procedure, until you get Feln colors online, then combos open up.
Passionate Stonehammer is such a good aggro card. Mix with your buffs (
Relentless Pursuit,
Scythe Slash, or
Rapid Shot) to deal a whopping 10 - 12 damage as early as turn 3.
Opponent survives early game? Then it's time for
Jekk, Mercenary Hunter,
Milos, Rebel Bomber, and
Siege Train. All amazing aggro cards, and Milos even breaks
Evenhanded Golem.
Haunting Scream them back if they die, bonus points if they're berserked.
Market:
Battlefield Instigator
- Combo piece to grab for
Siege Train. Makes your screams even deadlier, and it's even flying!
Edict of Shavka
- Fuck aegis
Grenadin Uprising
- Great against unitless control, and the attack increase works with buffed units.
Piercing Shot
- Removal + damage
Rapid Shot
- For if you need to pump up
Passionate Stonehammer on 3.
Combo Tips:
- Activate berserk on
Passionate Stonehammer BEFORE you pump it up to check for fast removal.
- If you scream out train, it counts the attacks you made before it died, so if train attacked once and died, scream will give you 2 entombs.
- Jekk with
Scythe Slash is very good, if they chump it.
You don't even have to play the exact list here. Any other mono fire variant will work, as long as it has good scream targets.
Very fun and strong deck (if you like aggro that is), people don't expect you to deal 8-12 burst damage.
If you read this all, I <3 you.
