Information

Basically just add broken cards to the deck with Torgov's Trading Post and Lethrai Soothsayer and blast through the deck to find them. Between Lightning Sprite, Gustrider, Torgov, Icecap Trader, and Honored Skyguard there is a lot of draw in the deck. But all of it is balanced by also having discard, which is where Torgov, Icecap Trader, Skycrag Scalebreaker and Jotun Hurler come in. Torgov gets huge really quickly, and Hurler/Scalebreaker give you an extra card to discard.

As you're going through the deck you'll also come across the powerful (but situational) fast removal. So you can hamper their gameplan pretty well as long as you know what to keep.

You kill them with Bolts, Titans, and fliers. Eventually your deck will be broken compared to theirs so all the draw is really strong and you just dominate them.

Overall the deck has been surprisingly strong, definitely the best Torgov's Trading Post deck I've ever seen. It feels like it can actually compete with the high tier decks - it seems especially good vs Hooru control. But I'm in high masters so IDK how good it really is.

Interesting deck! I've opened 3 Trading Posts so I'm always interested to see if anything half-viable pops up.
Have you tried Royal Decree in the deck (either in the market or main deck)? Maybe to replace Obelisk? And with only one relic and fully Primal Market, you can move to Jennev Merchant rather than Smuggler (or even run 6-8 merchants though nothing in the market is mandatory).

Yes, all of those are fine changes. I actually have Great Valley because I used to have relic removal instead of Thunderstrike, and I think either is fine depending on the meta. Also Obelisk is pretty good as a wincon, and Pitfall Trap is a second Relic (the more common one to grab actually). Royal Decree is a great Market card though so finding room for it wouldn't be bad at all. I actually have Royal Decree in my updated version with fire and it's really nice, this version should probably have it too.
