Out of curiosity, what makes you want to run the strike a good match over a 4th Mother Knows Best?

Thanks, I am glad they are helpful.

Yeah I tested BBB but it was really hard to find a position where I would be able to cast it for advantage. So I opted for more card draw lol

But it doesn't put any cards in your hand.

@shaggyhopkins yeah but the use case Quantum laid out is about the thinning of the deck and getting to things faster. Imagine singing boss, stacking a friends, playing a rabbit to get the friends, etc.

@@GabrielHernandez-oj3kj what's faster? Having new cards in your hand, or knowing what's on top of your deck?

@shaggyhopkins If you're talking strictly about drawing more cards, sure, strike lets you draw a card right away and see the top 2. If you're trying to get to goat and snake to close a game faster, seeing the top 5 and just teleporting the goat and snake/fox or friends to the top is probably the more efficient move

@@GabrielHernandez-oj3kj Hey Gabriel, in this case Strike a Good match is better because it gets you extra cards in your hand right away. Boss is a good card and the 2 lore you get off stacking 10 cards from Ursula's Sing is great, but the value of drawing 4 cards (even if you pitch 2) is just way too strong. Given that most of your deck is so low cost, you are bound to find something playable and have in hand right away.

I’ve been playing that instead of strike a good match

Oh nice, best of luck. Hopefully I'll have time to test different builds.

Not sure, I am leaning towards Steel Song. Glad you are enjoying the video.

This and steel song are the next decks I’m gonna do I think.

Flynn is better.

I probably wouldn’t go with Pinocchio if you’re running ditch. You can definitely look at including teeth in the build again though.

@@QuantumMercury Thanks for the help! I'm going to try and bump up the "ladies in red" and cut Monstrous Dragon. I'm finding it to feel a bit slow atm as well (strictly annectdotal). Have you had a similar experience with meta shifts?

I have an Inklands Blue Steel list on my channel you can check out my other vids to see them.

Sapphire Steel with a Cogs is the best. They sing AWNW and just let you ramp more and cogs ruins all the steel cards

@@francis1230 everytime i’ve brought ruby saph to my locals i never get the steel song😂 always get matched with agro 🫠 … lucky me

Sapphire decks beat Amber Steel... the main ones in the format are Steel and Ruby variants, with the Ruby variant having the better match-up.

You could opt for Genie over Yzma, but Yzma can have some benefit of letting you draw too. Thanks for the support.

I can see if I have time to revisit the deck with this list.

It depends on what you feel comfortable with. This is a good deck if you see a lot of control and not too much Steel. RA is average into everything. RS struggles into aggro but beats Steel.

I'm curious too! I'm diving head first into the game and buying as many cards as I can whilst avoiding the expensive stuff if possible. Who knows how long I'll stick with the game, but I've been enjoying it so far.

It's tough to say since Ursula does a LOT for the deck. Not necessarily replacements, but the 3 drop Maleficent count could be maxed out since she replaces herself and sings all the songs. Other choices could include an extra Kit Cloudkicker, Wildcat for item removal, although it is a bit slow and almost always will be dealt with immediately. Magic carpet could be a niche choice for free location movement.

@@fakeafroconspiracy thanks! much appreciated! I'll give it a whirl and maybe these will eventually come down in price.

No Ursula does really hurt the deck as a single draw 4 off it is sometimes enough gas for you to win the game (consistently dropping threats). You could opt for more aggro, since the longer you let the game go on the less chance you have to win.

It's a tech card for sure, but this deck focuses on aggro, you don't want to slow things down to play control if you can avoid it.

All the Amethyst cards are foil.

I've been meaning to make a Mufasa video since the release of Inklands because I got smacked in the first 2 days of the set being on Pixelborn by a Mufasa using Chernabog lol

@@QuantumMercury that’s my favorite card from the new set
