Description: A 2013 incarnation of the deck I used to win the 2005 Australian Championships. This deck never seems to do much, but is very effective. Table play is critical, especially early on. Most VP's scored by "lunging" (with Pentex Subversion) or by combat late in the game. Very difficult to oust, especially if allowed to set up. The absolute key is to use Magic of the Smith to bring out the Heart as early in the game as possible. From there you have most tables covered.
