Raizan Stormglass Raid

People think hiding their best guy in the Alley keeps it safe. Nope, not against me! Stormglass Daggers, Riven Flashborne and Stormcaller Tenkichi swing straight into their Alley, Surge Gate brings my daggers right back, and Ikazuchi plus Mo close fast. No Prerelease cards, pure W.

Stormglass Daggers

Deck

Game plan

  1. Early turns

    I lead with Crate Rat Kurobo, Black Jade Recruit, Rei and Alley Thug. Kurobo and Recruit dump 1-cost daggers into my discard pile while Silver Current, Haruhi pings.

  2. Middle turns

    Put Stormglass Daggers on Raizan or drop Riven Flashborne to snipe untapped engines hiding in their Alley. Portal a Gate Power 1 guy through Surge Gate to equip Black Jade Crewleader, then pay 1 IKZ with Raizan for Charge.

  3. Closing

    Stormcaller Tenkichi and Mo charge in right off the top, Ikazuchi zaps their whole Garden for 1 while Raizan hits for 4, and Lightning Orb grabs the last point.

Mulligan

I keep two 1-cost bodies, best of all Crate Rat Kurobo or Black Jade Recruit with a 1-cost dagger. Send back hands with zero 1-drops.

Key cards

  • Stormglass Daggers

    Put it on Raizan and my Leader can attack untapped or tapped guys hiding in their Alley before they ever portal.

  • Riven Flashborne

    3-cost 2/2 that reaches into their Alley every turn to hunt down engine cards.

  • Stormcaller Tenkichi

    Charge AND Alley reach, so nothing back there is safe for even one turn.

  • Ikazuchi

    +4 attack on Raizan and zaps every entity in their Garden for 1 when I swing.

  • Surge Gate

    Portal an Alley body and replay a weapon costing up to its Gate Power from my discard pile for free.

Tips

  • Portal BEFORE attacking! Equipping Surge Gate's dagger onto a guy that already swung is an NPC move.
  • Hidden Dagger and Lightning Orb are Responses, so leave 1 IKZ open when a race gets tight.
  • Mo gets Charge automatically under Raizan — surprise 4 damage from hand on turn 6.
