Game Plan

Early Game

Turns 1-2

Make efficient plays with Bone Splinters and Implement of Improvement and set up your mid-game. Don't overextend into sweepers if you have a lead.

Mid Game

Turns 3-4

Develop your board while leaving up interaction. This is where the deck's threat-answer flexibility shines — read the matchup and pivot accordingly.

Late Game

Turn 5+

Leverage Eliminate the Competition and Restoration Gearsmith to dominate the late game. Resolve your biggest threats and protect them.
