Theme: You want make sure the meet gets hooked onto your plate. Serve damage while staying in your own butchery.

Weaknesses: things have to click in - the main strategy is not super reliable, so sometimes you just play your regular fighters and that might not be enough

Strenghts: versatility against different matchups, potential to mess up their lands, your [[Avatar of Earth]] is a beater that eats their minions while hooks surprise them out of nowhere

Strategy:

early game: sustain with minions like [[Kettletop Leprechaun]], [[Root spider]], [[Order of the White Wing]], [[Autumn Unicorn]], [[Gargantula]]

mid game: turn the corner [[Earthquake]], get your beaters in [[Pudge Butcher]] [[Dalcean Phalanx]] [[Lord of Greed]], setup their lands to your advantage [[Earthquake]], [[Rift Valley]], [[Atlas Wanderers]], [[Mover of Mountains]]

late game: from turn five or six on, start using your [[Avatar of Earth]] as a beater, hook their key minions and their avatar with [[Meathook]] on [[Avatar of Earth]], [[Overbearing Bailiff]] or [[Lord of Greed]] (who can snatch it), anyone can put them on death's door by attacking the switched land in your domain

death's door: lots of potential to survive at death's door with [[Plate of the Whale]], [[Royal Bodyguard]] and [[Mount Ussar Sanctuary]], make sure you save you toolbox for this situation - that's where the collection full of air comes in handy

Site placement:

3 front row: [[Briar Patch]], [[Forlorn Keep]], [[Consecrated Ground]], [[No Man's Land]], [[Pebbled Paths]] (all work well also when switched to their domain)

3 back row: [[The Colour Out of Space]], [[Windmill]], [[Glastonbury Tor]], [[Haystack]], [[City of Souls]], [[The Base of Babel]]

Collection - this is where the air addition really shines

removal package: [[Dispel]] [[Bury]], [[Grapple Shot]], [[Lightning Bolt]]

to remove wards and tokens: [[Rain of Arrows]]

graveyard hate: [[Carrion Beetles]]

card advantage: [[Penitent Knight]]

death's door package: [[Zap!]] , [[Grapple Shot]] , [[Lightning Bolt]]

Let's hook up!
