Notes & Combos

a build stolen almost entirely from TTK's Top 8 in the MCS (with a few personal changes) here

I honestly thought the build was sus, no spoly no thrust just a bunch of handtrap spam, but then i played this entire season of it to give it a try and the decklist absolutely demolished.

You have a bunch of high impact handtraps that can swing games on their own (droll ending entire dragon link turns or nib slamming Mathmech or Kash board flooding etc.), paired with bystials you have a decent time softening boards before they get to combo off.

you max out on a ton of engine cards, so the decklist is quite consistent (although i think 3 shrouded could make it better if there was any room). and your extra deck is much less tighter, so you can fit in cards like verte (help unbrick hands/lines to beat ash) and cards like Lulu (send to gy to help u get the full board + quem from titaniklad and cart from lulu)

even if you do get ashed, you have a lot of cards that can get you back into the extra deck, so its no problem as you play on your opponent's turn

this list just honestly impressed me despite my first impressions of it
