This kinda deck was something I was already heavily considering spending my shiftstone on when the new set came out, and after the new promo
Scared Beetender came out I knew I had to. One of my favorite pet decks for a while has been a sentinel-relic aggro-ish kinda thing (old version I uploaded for reference:
Robot Face Punch), so I'm super excited to get to use my favorite cards from there to make something new and (maybe) more meta.
The new honey cards, specifically
Scared Beetender Lystia, Winged Lantern, and
Honey Porter can just 3d print an insane amount of relics, which are good value on their own but then also provide great fodder for
Rocketblaster,
Act of Desperation, and
Vulk, the Autoforge. Saccing these relics will then power up your
Scared Beetender,
Drifting Drone, and
Forge Sanitizer, as well as potentially ramp you from
Naoki, Valiant Warrior. All this makes the deck super synergistic and really versatile, and so far it seems actually really solid. I did
Crack the Earth for market to help power fix w/
Ark of Sol if needed, but it also lets you get a bit fancy with
Controlled Demolition (another pet card from my sentinel deck) by playing it for 2 despite it costing 5 technically.
From the Rubble is also really nice, it'd be too slow/inconsistent to maindeck but has proved to be a lifesaver in games that go longer than I want them to.
A lot of the stuff from my old deck carries over which I love,
Blitz Stone for example is a standout with its ability to let you swing with a 6/5 flying charge regen
Forge Sanitizer on turn 3 while potentially also killing a unit the turn before. Sanitizer and Vulk are just insanely valuable beaters for this deck, and really allow it to be aggressive despite playing a lotta finnicky cards. Plus, the deck seems to totally get away with being light on removal, as the damage and stuns you get from the relics you play more or less covers what it'd lack in that department.
I only made this deck the other day and will likely be making some changes. I included
Jetpack mostly because its a card I just really like, its definitely not bad but it could get swapped out, I'm considering changing it for
Kaleb's Cloak.
Cryptic Master is another one I'm unsure on, as
Tinker Overseer would likely be a better beater at the price point given that saccing your relics makes master weaker, but his ability to make a free relic is really valuable as well, so not sure on that one. Another thing, the powerbase needs work, I'll probably take out the cylixes as I have yet to get a trove from one and also why is there still no rakano painting? Please I am begging.
Please me know what you think of this/any suggestions, I think this archetype has a lot of potential and have been having a ton of fun with it.
