Culdcept Saga - Player Decks

Warlock Scroll (NRB, 20/13/17)

I liked the Warlock card, with his anti-magic territory ability, untargetability, and critical scrolls. So I built a deck around it! There are only 2 Warlocks in the deck, but the deck is still built around the essence of the Warlock...

2 Possession
2 Barbarian
2 Cait Sith
2 Gas Cloud
2 Sorcerer
2 Luk-Oie
2 Noble Shaman
2 Saint
2 Sea Bonze
2 Warlock

1 Necro Scarab
2 Nuclear Fusion
4 Petrify Stone
4 Tearing Halo
2 The Hand

4 Drain Magic
2 Intrusion
3 Paralyzer
2 Prophecy
2 Replace
2 Revival
2 Trespass

When I built this deck, I started with all the spells I thought would be useful in a competitive online game. Then I added in the Warlock and a variety of red/blue creatures: a few with Scroll Critical Hit, one of each color that's super strong on defense (Gas Cloud, Sea Bonze), one of each color that's untargetable (Cait Sith, Luk-Oie), and a few other specialty creatures (Barbarian - Immediate w/ 50ST, Saint to take care of Neutrals, Possession to steal strong level 1's before they get out of control). Every creature can use every item in the deck, and Warlock is the only creature with a land requirement. The result is a deck that's pretty darn safe to play, and because not a lot of people pack scroll-heavy decks, most opponents aren't prepared to defend against them.

Best offensive combo in the deck:
Paralyzer (Doublecast) + Intrusion + Sorcerer = unavoidable death to any 30HP creature (or 45-75HP with a scroll item).

Best defensive combo in the deck:
Gas Cloud + Petrify Stone = opponent must do 160 damage + 2x land effect to kill - and this combo still survives a critical nuke!

This deck is weak against creatures that get large stat boosts (Avatars, Mudman, Undine) and beefy armor. The best way to play this deck is belligerently, attacking with every chance you get, so the enemy can't develop a stronghold on anything. Revival or Prophecy if you need more Sorcerers or scrolls. Keep the enemies from getting set up with their land requirements, use Replace to swap out enemies with powerful enchantments or abilities, or Possess them if they're still level 1.

Possible changes:
- Might swap in 2 Clay Idols to help protect against the direct damage metagame.

... That's all I've got for now... I don't think I've lost with this deck yet - I think it's 3 for 3, having won an allied match and 2 FFAs. Great deck for allied matches, because who doesn't want a partner with crazy scroll attack power?
