Focus Of The Deck

The primary goal of “Replace-A-Ton” is to complete the trial requirement for Oak in the Nemeton, which is to have 5 different types of token minions on the board at one time (Tokens are non-collectible cards). Keeping token minions and token generators out of harm’s way can help you better your chances of satisfying the trial  requirements.

How Do I Play This Deck?

Early Game

Your early game plays will be influenced by what follow-up plays you have. If you have a replace-synergistic card like White Widow or Kron in hand, Aethermaster may be a nice turn 1. If you have  a more spell-heavy hand, you might want to try playing a Circulus early in the game. Consider removal options your opponent could have, as sometimes you will want to preserve certain cards like Circulus for when you can benefit from their effects the turn you play them if you suspect your opponent could remove them easily.

Mid Game

There are a couple ways to play out the mid game. How you play it is heavily influenced by the faction your opponent is playing. Factions like Lyonar and Songhai are more likely to struggle against one more durable minion, while factions like Abyssian and Vetruvian are more susceptible to playing multiple smaller minions.

Late Game

Grandmaster Embla can make a monumental contribution towards completing your trial, capable of getting up to 4 different types of tokens in one turn. Ideally, you will be able to summon Oak in the Nemeton and use the massive size of your token minions to close out the game. Since Nemeton is the primary win condition, if you haven’t completed trial yet, you will be playing in a manner that helps you complete trial as soon as you can.

In Closing

This deck is perfect for any player who wants to play a silly deck made even sillier by trying to add replace cards.  Have fun piloting a deck that truly lives up to Nemeton’s nickname of “Meme-ton”.
