Link to decklist above. I'm looking for someone with experience/high rank to edit this for me. I tried to make it competative with human allies competing for board control, but if things go bad you can clear the board with Tidal Wave. EP combos nicely with lots of allies here, including Tainted Oracle, Birgitte, and especially Aeon. I didn't like the Ghostmaker combo as it took too long to get set up, was very situational and fragile, etc. So the goal is to compete for board control and clearing the board when you have to, setting up big endgame threats like Aeon+EP, or weenies + Kings Pride.

I feel like I don't draw enough cards, esp if I don't get my staff. I bet Lance, Gwenneth, Boris and Amber most of the time, but struggle against mages.

Looking at your deck and what you said, it looks like you have board control covered and your big problem with mages is the direct damage. If that's the case, you might want to consider dropping the Spites and adding Healing Touch.

A few copies of Armored Sandworm would help against Mages since they can stick around even after a Supernova. Healing Touch would also work well in here since you are using the staff instead of the TO+Ghostmaker combo.

If I were you, I would up the TOs to 4x

peithoson, i just found your list and it looks sick. i'm gonna give it a go and come back with questions. when i tried ghostmaker combo before, i felt like i never survived long enough to use it so i switched to more ally-rush. i contemplated adding 2 healing touch, but 4? awesome. awesome.

my first question tho - raven or sandworm? i get that sandworms are good against mages, but ravens survive nova too, and are better for board control.

Yomaster is the one who came up with the list actually; I've just been trying out several different variations of the list. Also, I am currently running 3 Kings Pride over the 3rd Wizent Staff. I would say Sandworm since it is a character that is going to be on the board for a while. Also, Curse negates
Raven's ability by allowing Sandworm to just attack without worrying about getting the base attack set to zero. As far as board control goes, Tidal Wave and Ice Storm have worked out well for me.

Sandworms > raven against mage...

[putrajakarta]

-3 smite
-3 puwen
-4 Wizent's Staf
+2 TO
+4 healing touch
+1 King's Pride
+3 Ghostmaker

TO is your main drawer...
healing touch mainly to detach negative attachment and effects..

Keeping in at least 2 Wizent's Staff is also a good idea because there will be times where there will not be a Tainted Oracle in hand or the graveyard to bring back with Ghostmaker.
