The core objective is to have Elbrus, the Binding Blade   attached to a creature and that creature deal damage as early as possible. For this, the main tactic is to use Quest for the Holy Relic and fuel it with early creature spam, then attack and if one creature deals damage activate it. I thought that building this inside an Affinity would blend great.
