Oh man i was looking for a selfwound deck!

[@kwerner]

I've always enjoyed listening to your commentary as you play: anticipating what your opponent will play next and your strategy to counter their plays. It's cool to see how your mind works. I know that probably sounds kind of weird, but I've always struggled to see several moves ahead, so hearing you explain your thinking in real time is super cool to me. 👍

[@platinumpatrol2964]

I'm always glad to hear people find it helpful. I think it adds a lot and also helps me when people point out things I could improve on.

[@Godammi985]

Self wound is one of my favorite archetypes! Nice to see you make a vid on it

[@fingentnoctuary7050]

I think you put the wrong Drummond card on the thumbnail

[@platinumpatrol2964]

I know I wanted to see if anyone would notice :)

[@tomrowell1558]

There are so many nice bronzes I wanted to try in this deck that I made a Shupe version with many of the same golds, was a lot of fun but this definitely looks more competitive

[@henriquefozzatolima573]

this change to queensguard was one of the best made by the council, at 5 she is much harder to kill, but also she is harder to proc so you need to think a bit more in how to do it, i'm very happy with the change. Now if only Artis was 10p...

[@platinumpatrol2964]

Queensguard was a change I voted for so I agree. It works a lot better with Totem in particular which is nice.

[@Portaseccia]

In the last BC i tried to buff a bit artis cuz i love the card ( +1 power or -1 prov are both good tbqh) but nooo, lets nerf regis and buff NG again and again 😅

[@platinumpatrol2964]

I feel like the Nauzica, Slave Driver, and Dame are going to be on every balance council for the rest of time. It's pretty frustrating

[@Portaseccia]

@@platinumpatrol2964 yeah, every BC Always lands on "lets Nerf the FOTM deck ( ex. Jackpot now, cultists before It) and fight til death tò reset the NG changes. I'm Happy that some cards i voted won the ballot ( sausage maker and mutants yay), but i'm afraid cards like Milaen or Stennis will always be useless

Interesting deck. The sigvald/knut/cerys/restore package is amazing with Melusine, that's my self wound. On the restore turn, instead of bouncing points off sigvald, heal melusine to full with cerys and put it on sigvald, then hit melusine with knut, then proc her rain, and Svalblod totem her health as close to 1 as possible, then use restore on her, then proc sigvalds health, one of the best point swings.

[@Arxareon]

I love Artis, I wish he was easier to fit though.. He does thin of course, but I think he may might be fine at 10.. yes, he can be very scary but let's not pretend he's not answered fairly easily if need to be. Knut is basically the same role but just much better - he doesn't thin but you can choose your targets and actually kill stuff, whereas Artis by himself can't finish threats off.

[@Dantepl7]

In 3rd game, round two, you have played fucusya into melusine for 10 points due to artis, you should have played simply olgierd for 10 points instead. Then you could hope to draw fucusya round 3 and play melusine for 20 points and win ;)))

[@platinumpatrol2964]

Probably :)

[@StrongerThanEver7]

19:30 couldn’t he just pull IGNI here or am I missing something? Initiave should still be enabled right

[@platinumpatrol2964]

He could've. It probably would have been the best option. I don't think it saves him though.

[@worldmen7]

In the first game opponent should have played igni from compass not regis in my opinion

[@Minecraft_number-1]

There are few cards in the deck scrolling, it’s difficult to find everything

[@platinumpatrol2964]

I'm not exactly sure what you mean. Are you saying it's hard to see which cards are in the deck to make it yourself?

@@platinumpatrol2964 You only have two cards to spin the deck! royal order and keris, this is not enough to find the necessary cards
