This is an odd deck in that it's part aggro and part stax. The idea is to use the early turns establishing a Tymna draw-engine before deploying/tutoring for lock pieces to slow down opposing strategies while you gain an insurmountable advantage in resources, pressure opposing life totals, and/or establish the thopter/sword combo.
