Qualifications

Their shell turns card selection and trash access into repeated outside-hand spell plays, and some builds keep a Hook branch, so Gear removal earns its slots.

Sabotage attacks the non-unit engine before you have committed several bodies to a battlefield they were always going to answer.

Do not overload one battlefield with temporary Might. This is the deck best equipped to punish a single concentrated target.

PreserveBrynhir Thundersong · Ferrous Forerunner · Kinkou Initiate · Thrill of the Hunt · Keep Falling Star: their support units are small enough for a three-and-three split to be a real two-for-one.

Avoid · Bringing Unyielding Spirit before game one has shown that damage, rather than bounce, Stun or recursion, is how they break your board.
