Deck Notes

Consider the following card-specific concepts while playing this deck:

• In the initial hand (opening draw), the most important card to mulligan for is Dragon Pole (or Prepared for the Worst, to search for Lily's signature melee weapon).
• Note, playing at least 2 arcane slot assets, as early as possible, is important to "power up" the Dragon Pole, and also, to counteract the Ectoplasmic Horror basic weakness.
• Arcane Initiate, Eldritch Initiation, Prepared for the Worst, and Scrying are useful for finding needed cards.
