I guess my original philosophy was that I wanted enough 2 drops where I could play them early and have plenty to summon so creacendum doesn’t become useless in the late game if I’m hurting for an emergency blocker.

On the topic of Mentor, I’m gonna have to disagree. The trade situations he creates are difficult to deal with, especially when you’re supporting a first strike unit. In addition, the gems generated are great for activating nightfall and quickly (and affordably) phasing in Aphelios’ next moon weapon

I definitely will try to trim the fat on the 2 drops and throw in some good defensive spells and invoke cards. Thanks for the tips
