Information

This deck is a new midrange tricolor that finally works thanks to Token of Knowledge and Auralian Cargo that help us balance the power. The powerfull midgame helps us pressure our opponents with Vara, Vengeance-Seeker, Cirso, the Great Glutton and Sandstorm Titan that are supported by powerfull removal options.

The market is most of the time used to get Xenan Temple once we have a board that can protect it or Elysian Banner if you have Cirso, the Great Glutton in hand but not enough power to play him. Disjunction is used to remove enemy key relics and Mystic Ascendant and Azindel, Revealed are greedy cards for the greedy matchups.

Display of Knowledge is the real MVP, it can fetch for the big endgame relics of our deck, remove an attacking unit (without the entomb even activating) and be used on your minions to give them a surprise +2 attack and quickdraw to mess with blockers (expecially good on Cirso, the Great Glutton when opponent block with 3 units).

The removal can be tweaked based on your preferences but i feel right now is balanced.

Are you finding that you can reliably get out Teacher of Humility on 2? I wound up cutting her from my latest TPS brew in favor of Ripknife Assassin since I found i was struggling to hit TT reliably in time for her to have the biggest impact.

Nice suggestion, i tinkered with many 2 drops and i totally forgot about Ripknife Assassin. The main reason i play teacher its to be a blocker with good stats that can be played on turn 2 or 3 to block 1 drops and 2 drops, the effect is more of a bonus to me. Your suggestion may even be better, ill try it for sure.

I've found that Ripknife is, at worst, a deadly blocker that slows your opponent down a bit in their attacks - even if they're playing a bunch of quickdraw units or blast it away with an Annihilate, he still does the job well. Plus, a single S influence is a lot easier to hit for a tricolor deck, even with all the fancy new power-fixing cards in set 5. I definitely recommend trying him out :)

Why run token over more crests?
Grapparian Edited Eternal Version: 1.42
I'm already running the maximum amount of crests to balance the lack of card draw. The flexibility of token its really good to match the color requirement to make your plays on turn 4-5 since you require to have 2T 2J and 2P. The mana balance is something im still working on tho.
