This deck will have a tough time beating steel decks. It can happen, but some luck will be involved. If you expect a lot of steel I would pick a different deck. I just think it would be a good meta call based on the field at recent top tournaments.
i think someone from my locals watched this because they had the exact same deck list. I was playing blue/gray ramp and lantern and surfer stitch seemed clunky. They lost 2 games because of losing tempo with lantern and trying to go wide with stitch. They won a match when it was lilo then simba, i say leverage against your worse matchup and just go balls to the wall since GYS will come and developing a board won't do much
I don't know many i got destroyed in like a few minutes by a hyper aggro amythest/sapphire deck tonight 1- malificent 2- pinnochio 3- catepillar 4-pinnochio, pinnochio 5-so on and so on Oh and if the above doesn't work he started the arthur/amythest bounce strat
Well it doesn't auto-lose, but it's definitely bad. I would expect maybe 30% winrate vs amber steel and a bit better vs various other steel lists. At the end of the day you have to pick a deck based on what you expect to play and the top tournaments and the top of the pixelborn ladder are skewed heavily to Ruby Amethyst right now so it would be a good choice there.
Been wanting to try this deck with the current meta. Thanks for covering this deck.
Would love to see games where you pilot this deck to a win against steel decks. Thanks for the content as always

When this deck goes off it really doesn't give you much time to catch up
Thoughts on this vs the more aggro/midrange Ruby Amethyst bounce?
They have slightly different matchup spreads. This deck will be worse against steel, but better against the Ruby decks.
This just auto loses to steel right ? Or is there a way to pilot it that it works ?
Keep Ariel off board beat ‘em before 5 ink? Don’t play your whole hand if u see steel and a swords coming next turn
I haven't won a game with this yet. Keep playing against Amber Steel.
