The Purpose
This deck is a sort of “for real” attempt at a deck I’ve been working on for quite awhile. That deck is an “All Walls” deck, where you cannot play anything but walls. It’s a silly challenge, but it’s always been fun. Now that Arcades, the Strategist is a thing, I’m really gonna have to step up my game with this. Nobody has been able to resist trying this and using him since he came out and I can’t let my stupid little idea fall behind!
The purpose of this deck is to build up a huge board presence using walls. Your physical defense should be pretty strong both early and late game because of the abundance of high Toughness. Once your defensive position is established, the tables turn! What this was once done with was Assault Formation and Rolling Stones, but they’ve been combined into another nice new release, High Alert. Play that, and you can go on the offensive. Now that your offense is as strong as your defense, you should dominate combat and be able to win.
Current weaknesses basically just would be any deck that wins through unconventional methods, meaning not through combat. Things like Mill, Life Loss, Infinite Combos, etc... aside from the few counters in the deck, there aren’t really a whole lot of cards that can deal with those things and you just have to hope you win the race to High Alert so that you can get the kill.
