    Discard Serena

    Based on Consistent Serena. Mines is a trimmed version.

    Serena

    4 Nightshade
    4 Night Owl
    4 Sword Thief
    2 Lily Rosencult
    2 Viska
    16 Allies

    4 Assassination
    4 Stop, Thief!
    8 Abilities

    4 Ill Gotten Gains
    4 Anklebreaker
    4 Thoughtripper's Cutlass
    4 Black Garb
    16 Items

    This deck really needs very little explanation. It is quite simple to use.

    Controlling the board-

    •Mostly either 1 Nightshade or a Night Owl played with stealth and Assassination to remove threats.

    Sword Thief is good to disable enemies as they cannot attack or defend, which you can then proceed to kill with impunity.

    Black Garb makes it so anything attacking you also dies.

    Anklebreaker is my weapon of choice to go to town against allies and control the game. It's -1 Base damage. Disables and deals 2-4 Damage with Serena's ability.

    Running the enemy dry-

    •Cutlass can be used on allies or 'weaponized' with Serena's ability against a Hero. Whether Hero or an Ally opponent loses a card anyway.

    •A 'weaponized' Anklebreaker on the Hero also does the job although not as good as Cutlass for it in my opinion.

    Stop, Thief! Is really for their Card Drawing Engines and that's usually the only thing I use it on.

    This deck runs pretty smoothly once it gets going with great control, disabling, damage and discard.

    I'd recommend trying to fit in 2 Garth's Concoctions and 2 Sorcerors of Endia. The Concoctions work really well to stop a rush, and especially with those Aramia rush decks, where they get items to take out your black garbs or allies. Socererors have many uses and can double as a heavy hitter. They're especially strong vs warriors to take out their Blood Frenzy, and can win the game vs Millstalker (taking out a Full Moon at the right time, or even Lone Wolf).

    Cards I may swap out for those in this list would be -2 assassinations, -1 stop thief, -1 sword thief

    I also really like having 1-2 A Legend Rises in deck, which I mainly use to counter disabling attachments (I'll typically resource them if I'm not playing against someone who runs them).
    Spirit Shuriken can really come in handy in certain situations, and I think it can make sense to have 2 ABs and 2 Spirit Shurikens in a deck. Currently, I've only got 4 Cutlasses and 2 Spirit Shuriken in my deck and just hit 300 yesterday.

    I also only have 2 spirit shuriken and 4 cutlass, this weapon size may seem a bit too small for a hero to be dependent on weapons to activate her ability, but it does the job most of the time. Serena really got a boost from the cutlass. Also, nightshade has a really nice passive, but I find that layarian seductress gives more of the control that almost everyone is looking for. Paired with sword thief gives me 6 control cards in my deck. I'm not sure if you find yourself not getting enough draw sometimes, but I have backstab and repaid in full to help with the draw. One more thing, at first I thought that Oliver fagin was such a terrible card, but I just added one copy of it and this card is awesome, instasac in early game, but very useful in situational late game. Hope that helps.
