Information

I saw Sunyveil playing a deck like this in throne, but I haven't seen any lists like it, so I thought I'd try to put it together myself.

Tasbu, the Forbidden has tremendous synergy with the cultists with the sacrifice/draw mechanic, so I'm sure this is close to the best Tasbu deck you can play. Overall, it has familiar play patterns to the Expedition Cultist decks that took the ECQ by storm. I decided that Karvet, Solar Dragon was a bit too expensive for Throne and teched in some extra draw with Dark Wisp and some anti-aggro with Saber-Tooth Prideleader. There is definitely a slot to play around with there. The main thing is that you often need card draw to get to your Tasbu, the Forbidden, and he's the engine that makes this whole thing go. You can easily overrun Harsh Rule just by refilling your entire hand, so that's unlike any other deck I've played.

As for the market, I just wanted to have even more consistency for the game plan, so that's why Tasbu, the Forbidden is there, and I'm not using smugglers.

Also, note, you can still play Ark of Sol from the market with just a single copy in the deck, which is pretty cool.

Anyway, Throne is a bit more tough to crack open, but this deck is still strong, and I would say it slots in as a Tier 2 deck somewhere.

just fyi, you don't need to have ark main in order to have it be playable from the market. that is only the case if you literally have no merchants or smugglers in the deck. cheers

That's true, but since I have a Shadow market, the only way to put Ark in the market is to put either an Auralian Merchant or Ark in the main. Otherwise, it is an invalid market because of the influence. I personally don't like the Auralian Merchant at all in this deck, so using 1 Ark is kind of nice.
