Information

I’m loving the new promo card Dichro's Ruin. It’s basically free wins against aggro, hilarious against sling, and helps against control with all of their draws. This list probably isn’t optimal yet, but was good enough to go 16-4 in my last 20 games to reach master this month.

I’m not running Impending Doom or Karvet in this list, because those are dead cards if opponent also runs ruins.

There may also be a bug right now with Transpose not properly blocking ruin when played, so if that ever gets fixed this list becomes worse.

Special thanks to AggroWins for helping me refine the list.

I really like dropping the 8 big flying beaters because they might die to Dichro’s Ruin, I’m going try cutting Jekk and Siege Train from my MonoF deck since they die to Jekk, and add Factory Quota instead.

When I read about this deck, I get the feeling that Dichro's Ruin is an extremely powerful card in this list, but I don't understand how. If the player doesn't draw extra cards during their turn and don't have their minions deal damage the turn they are played, then Ruin does nothing ... doesn't it? Can someone please explain how this deck works for me please? I have a feeling that my confusion is mainly stemming from the fact that I just started playing Eternal a week ago, lol but I would love more info on this deck. Thank you! :)

You're correct in that there are situations that ruins does nothing. However in the current meta, Dichro's Ruin does something against pretty every much popular deck. Jekk, Mercenary Hunter and Milos, Rebel Bomber are two of the most played fire cards. Ruin either kills the minion from the damage trigger or drains from the draw in Sling of the Chi decks. Drawing extra cards is already something pretty much every deck tries to do - the cylix cycle is pretty much in every deck that can play them and ruin drains twice for each trove they get.

Ok, Thank you for sharing your knowledge with me. :)

The bug is even worse. Not only can Ruin not be blocked by Aegis, but when ruin is on you aegis doesn’t block anything. Ridiculously broken.

this thing just smokes the 5c Cylix deck. I love it.

This is definitely one of the most busted promos since FiLP and Garden. Getting two of them on the opponent is the only wincon you need in a lot of games. Thinking about a Skycrag Grenadin list splashing Shadow just for this relic when the new set hits

When I import this it only goes to Throne, Is this a bug or did you pick the wrong format?
