Oni Hunt Weapons

Intro

Playing with it in Forge, something about Diligent Smith really tickled me. Despite the fact that weapons have gotten a lot of support over the years, a lot of the abilities that effect weapons are one time use. A spell or summon effect that buffs the weapons in some specified zone. Smith is one of the first cards we've gotten that uniformly buffs the playing of all weapons and I wanted to celebrate that with a deck that builds around her.

The Deck

The core of the deck is what I would call "Oni Ball". Using Jishu, the Burning Brush, Chizue, Silver Hilt, and Ijin, Walking Armory to hand out cheap as free weapons to your Oni. The uniqueness for this list however is Diligent Smith (obviously) and Grove Craftsman. Craftsman may not be a card you wanna play before you get Smith online however so he tends to make like a piggy and go off to market. And speaking of the Market:

The Market

The market is made up of Gift of the Daimyo (my favorite card and surprisingly consistent superstar of a market card), Pristine Light as my mass removal of choice, and Spire Loyalist as the obligatory sigil in market. the other 2 are just methods of putting weapons on the field.
