I fell in love with
Conspicuous Traveler they day I saw it! I hyped myself up to start playing some armory strategies and slap people with my face. Now some time after it's release I have finally settled on my list for her. :)
The deck very much operates like a typical midrange deck by taking the board and working to keep it. Cards like Endra, Champion of Shavka and
Char are there the help with early aggression while you set up the board. Endra also works to give us powerful turns after we've played the first one since she becomes free from then on.
Conspicuous Traveler Works great to gum up the ground and turn your relic weapons into resilient threats that can remove multiple units. Funny enough she becomes a lightning rob for removal a lot of the time and it works in our favor.
As much as it's an armory deck it's also a
Yisha, the Equalizer deck. Yisha does so much for the deck it's actually mad! Making 6/6 Tota Colony and 9/9 Ageworn Vestige to help you take control of the board.
Tota Colony is also a major player as odd as the card may seem in a mid range deck. It holds the ground very efficiently as a blocker but can flip the script once you have the board and support your sprint to victory!
Dragon Forge is probably the best card in the entire deck because of the high utility it brings to the game plan. You can grab
Kaleb's Persuader to complete mastery on important units,
Magebreaker to slow control or destroy combo,
Slayer's Edge for removal and card draw, or
Ageworn Vestige if you need the reset button or health. It makes the decision making in this deck really fun and profitable if you read your match ups correctly.
The deck has a problem with fliers mostly and I haven't found a good enough blanket to cover it up yet, however if you use your relic weapons as removal for said fliers you should be mostly okay. Aggro gave me some issues until I included Endra and Char now I haven't had many issues at all.
I have lots of fun with this deck and have seen amazing results so far going 16-4 in my last 20 games. I'm not completely sold on the market but haven't really found anything that jumps out at me as needing to be in there. I would like to include Kozen Darkheart into the main deck but I don't own any at the moment. Any thoughts or suggestions? Leave them down in the comments and we'll have some discussion. :)

- Swapped Endra for Defiance as she's getting nerfed on Monday and I think Defiance is better for holding off against aggro
- Removed all but one Eclipse Dragon as it's good to pull with Dragon Forge but doesn't have much synergy with the rest of the deck
- Removed the Chars but I may add them back if I start getting hit with a lot of sites
- Swapped Tota Colony for Siraf as I think the Tota Colony payoff takes too long
- Slayer's Edge is now Charchain Flail as it works pretty much the same with Yisha out but can get bigger and play earlier and is getting buffed on Monday. That being said, it is pretty bad right now but I wanted to just try it out!
- The rest of the slots where Eclipse Dragon was are now Cozins as you said you wanted to have them in there and they also hold off early aggro well
This deck is a beast against all of the curse decks running around the ladder, thanks again!
