The main premise behind this is to deal lots of damage via additional upkeeps provided by Obeka. Given Obeka is the centrepiece of the deck she needs to be a) protected and b) ensured to connect for combat damage. As such 15 cards have been dedicated specifically for this.

From there the damage comes from life-sapping effects provided by cards such as Twilight Prophet and Palace Siege to all out damage from the collection of 'Court' cards.

There are also a few cards allowing access to 'The Undercity' which becomes particularly potent when traversing the dungeon so quickly.

Alternative win conditions come from cards such as Darksteel Reactor and Mechanized Production provided Obeka is connecting.

Emphasis on maximising Obeka's ability in this deck comes from double strike which makes her harder to deal with in combat as well as maximising the upkeep triggers. As Obeka is enemy number one focus has been put on equipment or global enchantments to prevent aura effects being lost if she is removed.
