How it Works

This all started when I got a bargain on two copies of Orim's chant for $8 a piece. They aren't worth that much nowdays, but back then they were going for $20 a piece. So I was excited to finally get to work with one of the most broken still-legacy-legal cards every printed. XD

What do you do when you got two chants? You run scepter. No-brainer. XD

The rest of the deck was just thrown in as

"What other cards do I have on hand that would work with scepter and what is my win-condition going to be?"

The concept is simple. Lock them down completely with chant every turn, then nickel and dime them with cheap unblockables.
