Hey CGB! Question: You played a version of this deck before that was trying out Baleful Mastery. I've also seen versions running Flunk as well. What's your take on early removal? I always find myself losing the games that I go 1 for 1 against aggro.
@TheGungoBlue3 жыл бұрын
Heartless act still king, hits every deck. Flunk only good vs white or toski. Baleful too much downside and eliminate comes in 2nd. Make sure you run at least 5 sweepers if you want a good match up.

Love Sultaimatum, still not sure about Esika's Chariot. I like Elder Gargaroth in the spot, though I usually play BO3 and I run a couple of them depending on the matchup. Sure it costs one mana more and dies just as readily to a Giant Killer, but I like that it goes over the top of cards like Skyclave App unlike the chariot, it's safe from your Shadows' Verdict unlike the kitties, and it's an amazing all-rounder if the opponent can't deal with it immediately.

Then all the juice to GET with ulti: alrunds, sea gate, kiora or onyx, vorinclex action maybe. Point is. Its all expensive. Thats all expensive stuff. Now you want to add MORE expensive things on top of that. You cant cut the standard sulti needs down more or they will fail searches. It just seems too much. Maybe im wrong.
