The Dead

For Thursday I've got two takes on the Necrons.

The first deck involves Illuminor Szeras and is my attempt to do a Necron only deck. Death Purists, if you will! Thematically, this wants to grind the game out, healing other units and playing a longer match. If the opponent is expending resources on cards I can repeatedly return, that in theory should allow me build up something overwhelming.

And the more traditional Necrons deck-or at least one that is trying to use the one bonus of the Necrons; their ability to recruit any other faction. This was my second iteration on Nahumekh, and I'm hoping it's a little more forgiving than the first one. Conquest is a challenging game to start with-the Necrons are an extra layer of challenge on top. But once again, I was using the ideas from other decks to help smooth out what's going on here.
