Information

Let's Imbue together and feel alright !

So this list has changed alot I'd you follow the comments u can see how

Took it for a test. Went 5-2 from rank 203 to rank 160. Last game I beat Rank 4 Maneiro. So safe to say this is completely viable to play right now.

Update again ! Teething problems ! This list needs the touch of an expert but the basic shell seems promising

Uppy up date: I condemn this list to the darkest pits of hell it's been nothing but a headache. There are too many ways to deal with the units displayed here. Imbue is a cool mechanic but you simply cannot rely on it as a game plan.

Some of the Imbue cards are extremely strong. Time+Primal is really good in expedition right now as well.

A few things suprised me when looking at this list. Like the end of the curve. I was thinking I'd use a few different cards. But other than that, this looks really consistant. Very inspiring idea.

But then I got to thinking, 'Hmm, wasn't there a few other Imbue themed cards?

Looked up Imbue and noticed Danica, Runed Witch. All I can say is wow.

I also remember they buffed
Inspiring Captain recently. So cheap.

And Feral Mandrake (Meh...) I noticed as well.

Anyway, cool deck! Imma keep my eyes on this deck idea. I think newer meta ideas will spur from Maveloft (killer effect) inspirations. If I ever happen to magically get some Danicas (maybe after this months event). I might try to build something very similar to this.

Ps: also, I've been Using Roshi, in a midrange gauntlet deck, he's better than he gets credit for, I think.

PPS (edited):
Also, etchings would great in such a deck. Because with Imbue, you can exhaust a unit THEN still Imbue it. Such value. Much wow.

Looks like we got work to do !

The first 4 units have incredible synergy. I'm glad you can see the bigger picture here.

This is a very rough idea, most of it stolen from LordPerths Mother's Burden obviously.

I know it can be taken alot further. Danica is an excellent idea and I agree with etchings.

I'll update this list soon if I can get some testing done but it was performing well in exp masters when I tried it.

Just from what you said I would replace pesky seedling with Danica and crack the earth with etchings. Market would have codex and some form of relic removal.

focusing on draft at the moment as I've made Masters in throne and exp already but yeah, let's try get this list together for next month ! If you come up with something let us know brother.

Thank you for your words of wisdom and best of luck in the event.

I looked at it a bit more, but it seems the more I think about it - the more convoluted my ideas get. I don't think this deck will work well if it gets too complicated and combo-y.

HoWeVeR... Adding a splash of Justice could do some amazing things. Like I said = Roshi the Entrancer Imagine dropping a turn 5 Roshi against a Fire deck, Imbuing your Lurking Raptors and their Prism Golemor any thing really. Then playing Savagery.

4 cost 11/11's are gud. Sure it's a bit risky stunning their big stuff but it's also nice having that extra stun at the 4 drop so you can attack with the 8/7 Maveloft Huntress you played on turn 3 (Imbued to the Lurking Raptors.

If only some of these influence costs were easier to get to in Expedition.

Re-looking at Feral Mandrake. That recurrence could be nasty. Transforming cards means plunder too, or Turn to Seed, or Learned Imitator (who makes incredible copies of imbue cards like Roshi or Danika BtW).

Lurking Raptors. I have a feeling this needs to be a 4 of. But this could get crazy. Could you imagine silencing these guys? Also, they work well with Savagry.

Land's Edge. Pretty obvious. How did I not mention this earlier!

Lay Siege. This is why Justice. This little 2 drop will just win the game, you have all these Imbued things sitting there getting +2+2 A TURN - That's right, per turn - from land's Edge. Imagine just giving everything that was stunned endurance? Suprise!

So, cards I'm looking at:
Land's Edge
Lurking Raptors
Lay Siege
Learned Imitator

But seriously. Definitely think I'm trying to do too much with it. But still, all seems so fun.

Also, I've never made a deck anything like this before, so I have no idea if this is good or not. Also, crafting Lurking Raptor is rough. Seems mire like an uncommon than a Legendary. So playtesting my ideal list is a ways away.

No no no ! I don't think you are trying to do too much. This is pure gold.

The only problem for me is this list is starting to look real pricey. But I think you are on the money here.

Lots to think about !

I know some of those legendaries could be market options which would make life easier.
