Upgrading the deck isnt a simple task either, since Amber Ruby hasnt been a strong meta choice in a while and the starter lacks many of the cards needed for it to compete

And while there are some pretty good Steel cards in this deck, all this deck really wants to do is have damaged opponent characters on the board

It can be used not only in a defensive way, clearing annoying ETBs or powerful abilities, but also in an offensive way, making Deaths Shadow 13/13 or Kroxa, Titan of Deaths Hunger a two mana 6/6
