    for anyone wanting to play this deck, i've played quite a bit of it for some time., imo the adventure kill spells are a must here since they can be brought back with the binding of the titans (Realm-Cloaked Giant acts as a wrath and wincon with the ability to be brought back if milled which is amazing) i also prefer the enchantment shell with setessan champion and archon of sun's grace which when brought back with the Ultimatum can give an immense amount of value with their triggers.

    I believe that excluding binding from ultimatum that turn would have opponent miss on the 2 flares, but the first flare would have been lethal. He could not have cast the first flare in the same turn as cycling all those cards (fox, healer. neutralize plus the others that he did cycle) but then the next turn cycle once and hit for 15.

  • @AzafTazarden
    @AzafTazarden 3 года назад

    Oof, the Flare match was painful. I was thinking to myself that casting the Binding on that last turn was worth it for the chance to mill the last Flare since CGB was dead to it anyway, plus it would get more cycling cards exiled by the Nightmare. But I don't blame CGB, that was the last 2 Flares in a row for the opponent, can't be any luckier than that, honestly.

    CGB should have known better with that last Zenith Flare, of course the shuffler would put two of them together in the opponent's deck.

    I always bind titans against cycling, I feel like it's a better chance to mill the flare and you at least exile 2 cyclers.
