RE: Band of the Wolf Showcase: Nether Deception

in Gods On Chain2 years ago

allows you to refill your hand and maybe disrupt your opponent’s plans by taking their key cards.

it’s quite fun especially when you start stealing a bunch of your opponent’s cards, either through Moonlighter or Gama (if you have Shadows of Lethenon out, it’s wild!). I don’t think it’s as effective as a pure Hidden Deception deck due to the randomness of the stolen cards though.

So true.

Moonlighter helped a lot against Order Light and Sleep Death and gave some chance against Control Nature. But what is more important, playing HRD with Moonlighters and Gama was a new joyful experience.

So... R.I.P. Moonlighter and the whole Nether Stealing Archetype.

Thanks god we still have Gama.

My last version:

Alas, only in Solar.

How is Brawler working out for you? Usually I see Lethal Prowler in its place instead.

And yes, RIP :( Glad I did the deck before they nerfed it haha

I play Lethal Prowler from time to time. It wins the game sometimes but sometimes you lose because you have this piece of wood in the hand + Dark Knives and Assassin's Aims and can do nothing. Sometimes, better to have another 4-mana hidden than Lethal Prowler.

Why Heroic Brawler this time... Firstly, my HB is diamond :D Secondly, it can be helpful as well.

Quite often they can't kill it and it starts buffing other creatures - Shadow of Lethenon becomes 2/2 at the end of turn and, thus, becomes safe from many spells. If Switch Duelist gets extra health, you can buff it with AA or hide with god power. Lurker with +1/+1 become something much more powerful.

When under order or sleep, it keeps buffing creatures or itself so this is also annoying for the opponent.

Finishing HB with a relic - which War likes to do to creatures - is painful - if HB is alone, it buffs itself at the end of the turn to 6/6.

It has an anti-Mage specialty - I drop it onto the empty board on turn 6.5 + pip, and hide it with god power. At the end of turn, it becomes 6/5 and nor Shaped Blast neither Unbound Flames can reach it.

Cons - it's 5-mana creature which isn't fantastic for HRD by itself and it has no hidden. Sometimes, better to have another 4-mana hidden, like Lokian or a Shade Walker. Or Lethal Prawler.

Maybe for this reason I am stuck in Solar with visiting Auric from time to time?

Right now I am too tired with this RNG-game and quit aggro Deception with all its rickety minions and switched to Amazons just to learn how it is to play with Divya and Fae Thornblades.

Yea when I tried regular HRD it just seemed very dependent on draws, like sometimes you have a bunch of spells but no creatures, etc. However I don't think Amazons are that great still, BUT I'll do probably try it out! I wonder if it's better than Wild now
