The gameplay strategies are,
1)
Alessi, Combrei Archmage can get very big with
Crafty Infiltration and hunt because hunt provides free spell card: Advantage.
2) Generate ever-growing big units, use Killer and/or Overwhelm to control board / win. Use units that can generate spells for you to choose from, eg
Lethrai Marauder can generate killer/scout or
Formbend
Steyer's Eyes - all 3 cards generated by Steyer's Eyes are useful and synergistic play
Acquisitive Crow can generate a lot of useful small spells to allow Alessi to grow bigger.
3) When our void is big enough with spells,
Rolant's Memorial and
Unseen Ghostblade will generate very big units (3-cost
Larai, the Appraiser can dig desired relics out whenever you think you need them)
4) To add some fun into this deck, Hunt can inevitably make enemy discard cards into their void, you can choose to play their powerful units from their void using our cheap 3-cost
Mimicry Vine. No shadow influence? no problem!
Crafty Infiltration can bypass that shadow influence requirement. Or even
Oskar, Chief Tinker (3-cost pullable by crafty infiltration for a decent body of 2/5 before hunt that may make it bigger). To add more fun into the fun, a market
Waylay can let you spy on enemy deck and to choose the one you wish to play later with your Mimicry Vine.
Crafty Infiltration and
Fort Smasher will keep the pressure to keep putting units on field.
Market choice
The Throne Room being only 3-cost and boosts a lot of other heroes in the deck and
Fearless Crescendo digs it and make units fly to ensure pressure of landing
Daraka, Queensguard and it has a sweet synergistic spellcraft bonus of
Savagery to give killer + overwhelm to your big guy
This deck has plenty of heroes to be boosted by The Throne Room eg.
Alessi, Combrei Archmage
Larai, the Appraiser - more for utility function
Lipa, Witch of the Woods - more for utility function
Olos, Elder Ranger
Oskar, Chief Tinker
Plenty of killer options when units get big enough to play as removal.
Plenty ways to trigger
Rolant's Memorial , can use
Maveloft Huntress to suicide-kill enemy unit, or even from discard by Lethrai or Steyer's Eyes. Maveloft Huntress's plunder can fix mana or to generate spell card treasure trove to feed Alessi.
market
Bastion of the Dawn is quite versatile as it can nullify enemy relic through
Vision of Austerity. Bastion's
Safe Return and
Twinning Ritual can even double / reset Killer. They being spells, make Alessi / Unseen Ghostblade, Rolant's Memorial bigger.
Discover Talents has inscribe, for emergency use if mana-screwed. Or it can dig for any wanted heroes, or it can dig for
Harsh Rule
Kemmo's Blueprints -->
Unseen Ghostblade or
Sword of Unity for game-ender.
Other choices can be synergistic in this deck if you want to get creative
Jufi, Sprite Seer,
Tomb of the Azuremage,
On The Prowl,
Svetya's Sanctum,
Mila, Exchange Student,
Quinn, Beast Heart,
Strict Professor etc
