TCG player mid prices show the deck at $32 right now but I was able to get it for $23

Wanted this deck to be roughly ~$20 so even though it's a little over budget I'm still happy with it

The main goal is to go for the general voltron strategy of playing and equipping Balan, Wandering Knight with everything and swinging at people for lethal. If balan becomes too expensive or you need a back up candidate to equip everything to and swing with we have Armory Automaton , Kemba, Kha Regent Sunspear Shikari and possibly even Kor Duelist.

If getting damage through with anyone is too hard we have Felidar Sovereign and Celestial Convergence as alternate win conditions.

Aetherflux Reservoir can really help with the lifegain win conditions and it has some small combos in this deck as well with Whitemane Lion and Children of Korlis

If it doesn't look like there's a chance of winning with one big guy or with lifegain jank the last thing we can try is going wide with a ton of tokens through Kemba, Kha Regent and White Sun's Zenith

Hopefully we won't have to do that though as there's plenty of removal packed into this along with tons of ways to bring back any equipment we lose in the process.

If you have any feedback on the deck please let me know.
