Information

Took this pile of good cards to a top 8 finish at the expedition open today.

The power needs to be fixed a bit still, but this type of deck does a great job of switching from offense to defense depending on the matchup. The Sling of the Chi package gives the deck a great long game plan to kill soldiers and opposing menace value decks. The fast start potential with the Krull, Xumuc Occultist package helps in the Overloader matchup; or any other matchup where pressure is needed.

This is hard to play but it can attack from several angles.

Deck is stupid fun. Like, 4 faction even Vox fun. And for me that’s a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing.
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
I'm glad you are enjoying it!
mgallop Eternal Version: 21.03.23
This list is extremely rad. Just all the most busted things in the format, and you fit them together better than we could when we tried it out.

Also Krull is a sling proc! Part of me wants a Zytrom in the market because it lets us draw cards off sling, but the other part of me has played 1 market card in 4 games so far with the deck since it is extremely good at using its power.
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Thanks! The deck can be pretty powerful once you get some reps in. Krull landed with sling in play a few times during the open, and you're usually getting the W if that's what's going on. I wish there was a better maindeck sling target, but everything we tested was a bit weak. Torgov is a consideration but it puts a strain on the influence.

Syl is currently in the market as a sling trigger option. It's particularly cool to decay something for 6! Tbh I never tested zytrom, but I'm sure it works just fine.

I'm glad you're liking the deck. It's a blast to play and has decent matchups all around!

The Invasive Creeper one of in the main deck is super interesting. What brought you to put it there, and how does it play out for you? (Yeah, we're going to see Menace lists with two pushed cards for it. I have no problems with that part, personally)
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
It helps diversify your know when targets. You can grab it with know when to hold em and immediately discard with whispering winds. Sometimes you need to draw something other than krull also. There is also 8 maindeck ultimate options if you want to bring it back with shoal stirrings plus a grafter. Usually stirrings just grabs two dredgers though.
Almost Eternal Version: 21.03.23
I guess invasive creeper is a hold-em target if you have no units in the void.

Stop playing proven broken shits in master ladder please. Once u reach it u can have fun with an infinity of different decks archetypes instead of make climbing the most annoying and repetitive experience for f2p players like me ; )
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Mauro29, I'm not sure what this is about... This deck is pretty original and not "proven" at all. Its just a deck that I did moderately well with today and I'm sharing it with the community. Maybe someone else will take the deck and run with it! Since it sounds like you're struggling with your current plan, maybe you should try this!
Marten Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Agreed, this list is a breath of fresh air after all those overloader combos in these factions. Keep up the good work!
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Thanks Marten!
mauro29 Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Sorry it´s just that i´m so fucking tired of Grenahem, Crafty, Whispering , Meance, Sling etc.. i mean it looks like the others builts with those cards to me. Anyway i get it, some cards are busted and moost of the people wan´t to climb fast but in some point the 2 modes get full of this kind of decks. Sorry to bother u i get all the shit out off my chest
Tyler Eternal Version: 21.03.23
Well, sometimes you need to join'em if you can't beat'em. And right now that means you need to know when to hold'em. Play broken things while you can. You'll regret avoiding it when the format has changed and cards are nerfed or buffed down the road.
mgallop Eternal Version: 21.03.23
I think this deck is super cool and unique, but its doing that by greedily jamming all the overplayed stuff in the format into one deck, so I can understand mauro's response. On the other hand, doing broken shit is fun!
