I really wanted to do a goofy deck using buff creatures, Crown + Shimmerpack to create the ultimate multi-skilled Fake-Dinosaurs. However, upon testing I found that crown did not work at all. It was just too slow, and required a bunch of cycling cards that I didn't have space for to even see any benefit.
Scholar was the best bet to fill that void, and turned out to be a decent 2 drop, that has the added bonus of confusing everyone when you play him and aren't playing Hero of the People. Each buff you can get on a shimmerpack really exponentially increases its effect when you get to drop it. Specifically if you luck into Aegis or Killer, which make it practically unstoppable.
Stand Together is possibly my favorite card in the entire game, and can really turn a collection of shitty tokens into a real pain to deal with even without Shimmerpack.
Anyways, I made this as a goof, but it turned out to work pretty effectively, and carried me through Gold and into Diamond.
