That was a ton of work. Please excuse any formatting, spelling, and grammar, errors I will be cleaning it up for awhile.
Anyways glad I finally did it, even if you have been following my threads I highly recommend you look over stuff again here, as most got a couple updates.

Would you consider trying to create/test a Songhai deck that skips the artifact kiting nonsense and firestorm mantra garbage? Something along the lines of this, for example?
I’d love to see Songhai get the @deathsadvocate treatment. I’ve really enjoyed all your other decks so far. Pretty please?
(It’s fine if you don’t want to, but you did say you liked their flavor, and I’d love to see an amazing Songhai deck that isn’t poison.)

You’re killing me 
, why did you include a ONE kaido assassin? I’m trying not to comment as much today and I can’t do it with that ONE kaido assassin staring me in the face.

Consider it? Yes. Will it happen? Not until I have completely run out of things in other factions to do, and with the rate of patches/expansions that’s unlikely lately.
Short of a subscriber request it’s probably not happening, at least not for quite awhile.
I like how all the other zodiac inspired Songhai units have animal traits incorporated into their characters / attack styles and Kaido Assassin is just some dude with a picture of a horse on his pants.

I’m kinda sad, cause this expansion gave us little in the way of playable crazy synergies (excluding masterpiece @sinpathy’s betrayal deck), and I was hoping you would get smth working, but no gimmicks in your thread also.
I hope it’s just because of expansion (and balance patch) are still fresh.
Is there smth crazy you’d like to try in near future, @deathsadvocate ?
Partly due to things being new (and then new again thanks to patch), partly due to the fact that there are so many generals now its taking me a really long time to just get through their competitive sides, partly due to a lot of the things I made as gimicks ended up turning out to be meta and got adopted everywhere, and partly due to this expansions powercreep making sillier decks a lot more punishing to play and the balance patch made it worse.
Yea the latest balance patch has put the game into a very balanced state and it was well done, but now there are so many degenerate and powerful decks running around instead of just Finality that you cant just play a silly gimmick and tech hard to beat Finality.
Now I do still have quite a few more gimmicky lists, I sometimes show them off on stream, and or when a subscriber requests one. But mostly I just have not had as much time as I would like lately. There is also the fact that a lot of previous gimmicks have ended up getting a lot of support and are just strait up good now.
But don’t worry I still have tons of crazy things I am working on that will come soon. I to have had a lot of fun with Betrayel, I don’t know what sinpathy has done, but I have put in a lot of work for it, some silly decks, some very serious and possibly meta.

I’ll share it then. I believe I should:
@deathsadvocate Fair enough.
@phoenixtoasches Almost every deck I make has seven turn-one plays, two three-ofs and a one-of. The Kaido assassin is the one-of. I don’t want to sink an eighth deckslot into ensuring a good first turn, and only six gives me too-high odds for my taste of getting messed over.
Edit:
So my assassin is killing you? I mean, that’s kind of what assassins do, I’m not really seeing the problem here.

I have done a ton of updating the last couple weeks, and today I added a whole bunch of new decks: ReliQ Maev, Miss Styx Lillith, Necromancy Lillith, Dishonrable Cass, The Dentist Starhorn, Mech Apex Starhorn, Meme of Electric Sheep Starhorn, Faie Wallodrive, Kara Overclock.
And you may have missed: Sexy Lizard Vaath, Apex Preadtor Vaath, Double Trouble Faie, VVall Kara, and Aggressive Midrange Ragnora.
I have been busy lately, and it was easier to just update this, rather then to try and slowly post other threads. Ive been showing off most of these on my stream lately so I don’t feel they really need their own threads anyways.

I think you have the wrong picture and link to the ReliQ Meahv Deck. The text and the shown deck dont add up…
Whoops, thanks for noticing, should be fixed now.
I have done a ton of updating the last couple weeks, and today I added a whole bunch of new decks: Brome Bond, Baby Teeth and QuillRage Ragnora, and I finally filled in his spot and added four Ciphyron decks.
And you may have missed: Q spikes Starhorn, San Andreas Zirix, and Bond Argeon.

Hey, wanted to ask a quick question. Barring a specific reason not to run them, like alabaster titan, do you consider one-mana cantrips (aegis barrier, gotatsu, Scion’s first wish, sphere of darkness) mandatory three-ofs?
Sphere and Gotatsu, absolutely should be 3x, no question. First wish is a good 90% of the time, but sometimes there is a reason to skip. Aegis is amazing but you do need some good targets for it to be worth it.
Cards that cycle are really powerful regardless of mana cost. Sometimes a cards effect isnt good enough to include, like aerial rift, and of course there are exceptions but in general cycles are great and most of them make most decks better most of the time.
