Information

Welp, I took this turd of a deck to top 10 masters, so I should probably add it here. This is an adaptation of Fun Maul feat Crisis of Faith, with some cards swapped out and a market added.

This is your classic Dichro's Maul style of deck, with lots of cards to force enemy card draw, then punish it with Dichro's Ruin and Disciplinary Studies, and a bunch of enemy unit bounce cards to get rid of threats and fill their hand up further, at which point you can boop them with a Maul.

Most games I chip away at their health with Dichro/nightfall to get them down to 18 health with a full hand, and Maul them, often on curve or soon after. If I can get a couple curses to stick, Crisis of Faith is an alternate option, doing a good chunk of damage and/or filling their hand up with super expensive cards, and disrupting any combos they have brewing.

What can go wrong? A lot. Relic hate isn't as bad as it was years ago when I first played this archetype, but it's still a huge issue. If you can chip down their health to within Maul range before they kill them, you're good, but otherwise it's rough. I tried a fast counterspell in the market to stop relic killer spells, but I rarely have enough energy leftover to play it. Aegis is also a huge pain, especially face (Formbend and Trick Throw in the market are there to help poke through), but unit aegis makes it hard to remove big threats. Swarmy aggro is usually a killer unless you have a well-timed Chronostorm ready, and even then, your whole game plan gives them so much gas.

The market is a work in progress. Lys, Champion of Linrei should probably be Mistveil Drake for emergency aegis, but I felt like I wasn't getting enough use out of it. Formbend is also a weak point, it can save the day in a pinch, but it's too situational.

Honestly, this deck isn't super amazing, it took a long time to really master it. But man, is it fun.

This deck is fun! Reworked market with heavy hail and hailstrorm. Replace single faction power with doubles. And exchanged Broker with Smuggler. Cleared AI 3 times and hasn't lost yet. One of the bosses was the Dragon deck that makes 'all other unit in hand with same type gets its cost lower by 1 whenever you play a unit'. Which I think is a hard counter to it. Have yet to meet 'double damage' and 'charge' AI bosses yet.
