Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"The usual early brew balance issues may exist here. But the concept has felt solid in goldfishing it.\n\nThe idea is a simple pressure deck, Orzhov-style. It keeps people in a position of a trending downward life total, while the deck props our life total up, making the prospect of always having Liesa in play rather achievable. I like the idea of forcing people to decide if it's worth using removal on Liesa.\n\nNo combos in the deck. Though I will say "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Indulging Patrician"}},{"insert":" + "},{"insert":{"card-link":"Blind Obedience"}},{"insert":" makes for a really compelling way to shorten the game simply by casting spells.\n"}]}
