So its time for the Primer.
So i thought how can i get the most value out of this guy. I just didnt want to build him as a Voltron Avatar so tried something different. After along time of testing i figured, ironclads game really starts on deaths door in the late game.
So in the end what doesnt kill you makes you stronger.
You want to slow the game as good as it gets meaning taking controll with your wicked witch, your harp, the saint, poison nova. Heal back up, with divine healing, the vampires and sir galahad. Make yourself harder to kill with the pain in the ass maidens, you want them as fast and as much as possible on your hand, thats why i also run call to war. Searing truth is in my oppinion one of the most broken spell in ironclad going plus 1 for usually 0-2 damage is completly nuts.
Blade of thorns, poison dagger and the plate are also very important cause it gives you way more pressure in the late game and more removel. (I cut the blade and the plate)
I run the goat aswell, dont underrestimate this guy. He can be a gamechanger for you but you need to use him wisely. Specially when your maidens are nearby him.
You rely on chip damage on the early-mid game and smack your opponents in the late game with your big beaters.
So i reworked the list alot cause the midgame wasnt good enough. And gave it more consistency.
Also ist added betrayal i will try them. Other spots are, blaze of glory and warp spasm or whirling blades. Well now in the end i run them both. Im not 100% satisfied with Betrayal yet but i will keep it so far. I will try instead 2 iron shackles, 3 mana to disable a minion and themed based, ye lets give it a try. So far i run with 2 lava flow as finisher and removel, cause betrayal was not good enough as impact.
So i will consider to play wiccan tools, my treshhold is pretty high and it fixes the early/midgame, card draw and more consistency as they count also as spellcaster for the devils pact. Im not sure yet what i will cut for them. I really consider to cut the blade of thorns and the plate of whale.
I recommend also instead of the amethyst core, the onyx core. I dont own it so i cant includ it. Also when you got cards like ring of morrigan or morgana play them instead of sir percival and 1 of the cores. Unfortunatly i dont own them yet.
Finally i got my Glastonbury Tor and can replace it with colour out of space.
And another epic hit for me, pulled a key to the city in foil. I replace it with a grapple shot.
And also i finally got my prescious ring ^^
I hope you like the list, i will maybe adjust small things here and there but in general this will be the final version of it.
So this version of the deck is at the moment the most consistent one, after alot of grinding and testing. Unfortunatly ironclad does lack abit of impact as avatar. I love to play him anyways and in the future i think this guy get his chance to shine :)
Reminder:
I only includ cards that i own.
