Description
{"ops":[{"insert":"This deck is a control deck with a focus on grinding creature decks into dust. Many decks are completely useless with little to no creatures on board which is the board state most commonly achieved with this deck. This deck isn't insurmountable by any means but it can be frustrating for many players to play against. Use with caution if you care about friendships. \n \nThe main goals are as follows:\nStabilize the board as soon as possible.

I will say that very few decks can pressure a 40 life total before the deck stabilizes the board but there will be games where the early aggression will add up and cross the finish line.
