Strategy
As there are many ways to build a bad deck, this build also tries to maximise the advantages you can gain from your own deck. The high quantity of Rare cards means that Rafaam will constantly be buffing the Weapon in your deck, gaining you a lot of value. All of the weak Mage Secrets are included in the deck, since it allows you to gain some value from the Kezan Mystics in the deck you are given. Even the Hemet Nesingwary contained in your deck has a target in Angry Chicken!
