Designed to be a slower, more controlling version of Arcades, with the option to pivot into an aggro deck if the situation warrants it. The general strategy is to play out a handful of walls in the early game to provide defense. Since Arcades is so critical to the deck, you typically want to wait to play it until you can do so with counterspell or flicker protection. Once Arcades is in play, use the flicker spells to flicker your walls and draw a ton of cards.

Realistically, another card should be cut in favor of Blue Sun's Zenith as another win condition for when you have infinite mana via Axebane Guardian and Freed from the Real/Intruder Alarm. However, the deck is still in the testing stage.
