Swartbron Awesomesauce


          So...how many of you guys have actually seen this card before? Oh, Hikeda had a contest with it? Well, let me rephrase myself: How many of you have actually used this card before? That's better.

          I don't blame you for not trying. Giving your opponent energy, sometimes in the triple digits, is definitely not the most pleasant thing. Swartbron costs 3 which, even counting in Fluidmorph, can be a pain to get to. On top of all this, Swartbron Battlesong is a M'arrillian Mugic, which makes it highly susceptible to Najarin FF. Why would you ever want to use this card?

          As I stated in my last post, my specialty is synergies. What can you use to make this card work for you? How do you get this card to give you the high end, triple digit energy, and leave the opposition in the dust? Well, say hello to my little friend:


          This battlegear is a key to unlocking the true potential of Swartbron Battlesong. If your M'arrillian can last long enough to cast a Swartbron, you'll already be gaining 30+ energy! Imagine your energy after 3 more attacks. Now how do I last long enough, and have enough Swartbrons to get into the triple digits, even the quads? Well, that's what this deck is for. Make sure to check it out on the back-up forum for discussion!

          So, are you having some difficulty understanding how the deck works? Well, there's an explanation of the strategy and card choices below. And if you do know how the deck works, you might as well read on anyways; you've made this far.

Strategy: Your two fluidmorphers, Nunk'worn and Part'soa, will be your main combatants. Conduct combat as normal with them, and when you get low on energy, pop off a Swartbron Battlesong to keep the fight going. Sure, you'll be giving your opponent energy too, but soon you'll be gaining astronomical amounts of energy. Once out of Battlesongs, start using Najarin to return them. He should have a good number of counters from the Na-inna's, Inner Floods, and Chimegrids. Lomma DW will defend your 3 supports, and you'll just have an easier time winning as the game goes on...


Card Choices: Creatures:

Part'soa: I know people don't like long and drawn out battles, so I figured I'd save them some time and lower their disciplines every once in a while.

Najarin: I wanted to take full advantage of Swartbron Battlesong, and what better way to do that than by having multiples? Yeah, Najarin takes a lot of effort to keep in the deck, but he pays off so well. Also, it's nice to return a refrain every once in a while.

Battlegears:

Riverland Star: Lomma won't have access to Swartbron, so I had to find another way to give her energy. I don't have Xerium Armor or a Droskin...

Mugics:

Trills of Diminution: I use this mugic to take care of LVBSoA; he's a real pain to this deck without it. Also, I found it difficult to get my M'arrillians to 3 counters against elementalist decks, so I use Trills to remove element X.

Notes of Neverwhere: There are 3 common locations that come to my head when I use this mugic: Illusionary Lake, Numin Voidland, and Azaia Mindscrying Chamber.

Attacks:

Ice Disks: As you all know, Najarin FF is the bane to any deck with a fluidmorpher, so I added Ice Disks over say, another SCR, to stop him from countering the Battlesongs. Also, it stops any of that annoying overworld healing stuff.

Outfreeze: These were initially Riptides, but I realized that this deck would be extremely weak against Gan'trak decks without Outfreeze, so in it went.

Locations: 

Ulmar's Projection Cavern: This is used over another Refectorium because I don't really like giving my opponent the opportunity to cycle attacks, but this deck needs the Refectorium because of all the 0 bp attacks. 

And that's the deck. As usual, feel free to comment on anything about the deck that could improve it. Thanks for reading!

Strategy: This time I'm going to do it a little bit differently; more like Occasus does it.
Early Game:
The deck is a little bit weak. Najarin won't have many counters, and you'll be unaware of your opponent's strategy. Use the Hiadroms more in the Early Game with Nom give them earth in case they need energy.
Mid Game:
This is where the deck will really shine. Najarin will have some counters from locations and attacks, freeing up some counters for healing. Eremia will be able to soar to great hights in courage and Smildon can keep out bad locations and bad creatures.
End Game:
This part of the game should be pretty smooth as long as your Mid Game went well. You'll probably have way more healing than your opponent and tons of mugic counters.
Important Cards:
Smildon: Don't use Lomma. You need to keep out Azaia Mindscrying Chambers and Prexxor Chasm Blights.
Nom: Very multi-purpose in this deck. He can heal Hiadroms, Give courage to Eremia and Smildon, and keeps Najarin safe by giving him earth. Not bad for a common.
Heptagon Hail: Look it up. That will explain it all.

I really hope you like the new deck layout. I feel this deck is pretty resistant to most of the metagame. Well, see ya.
