Notes & Combos
I consider it more the Geneva Suggestion, really. Here's a combo video showing the basic two card combo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-6OZNLGWYA&t=1112s
When Ariseheart came out, my goal was to shove it into Spyral because my favorite thing to do with Spyral is use another deck's monster better, and Ariseheart is the new big bad mega daddy on the block for me to bully others with.
Kash endboarads suck because ariseheart loses to dumb cards like kaijus and triple tactics talents and fast zeus lines. I spit on all of that by setting up extra floodgates in the form of secret village and knightmare gryphon, functionally being Imperial Order and Skill Drain, while sleeper and ariseheart himself completely shut down any board presence. Appointer cleans up the board's only other real weakness in Kaijus and Evenly Matched. I have never lost after a successful execution of the main combo.
I saw Ariseheart and thought, "I could make him worse." I do not apologize.
Deck has legs, too. It's obviously got all the Kash stuff for going second, but thrust for Talents or pointy has been great, and even more interestingly is thrust for small world and small world for a kaiju to out opposing Arisehearts or Noirs. When you got 6 spells that hard search outs to the most common bosses, it's pretty nice. If there was more lab I might toss in Duster.
Pank serves the purpose of all in one super bridge but also pretty solid in this meta since it does just out Ariseheart and **** with backrow before you commit to your own plays. Nice dude.
You might say "Twotone, where's Maxx C you absolute idiot?" And to that I say I was running 3 maxx c 1 crossout instead of thrust and talents before and it was bad. Purrely just sets up their trap to noir on your turn, Kash just passes under fenrir + birth + unicorn, and Lab doesn't care and that's half my matchups.
A further 10-15% are stun or mikanko or other cheesy going second decks that maxx c doesn't help with. If the card's only doing stuff for me in a quarter of my matches, and half the time in those matches they have the out, it's not worth the effort, especially in 60 where I'm not drawing it that often. So I swapped it for more versatile cards. No regrets.
Deck is good. Try it out if you want a challenge and performance. I went on like a 15 game winstreak in the first half of masters then a 7 game winstreak to close out master 1. Despite combo length, you climb pretty fast if you're just always winning.
