Quick Info
This is a variant of another deck: Glissa-Blood-Trove. The idea behind that deck was to use a single Glissa, the Traitor to control the board via forcing an opponent to attack because of Trove of Temptation.
Then it occurred to me that Glissa can now be copied … and that snow lands might matter.
Also, this decklist is based off my electronic collection ... otherwise there would be one of each sword.
Early Game
Fetch-lands, Abundant Growths, Arcum's Astrolabes, and Stoneforge Mystics are what we want in our opening hand just to dig into the deck. Without shenanigans; we can dig 18 cards deep with Stoneforge being able to fetch an appropriate sword to fit our needs.
Mid Game
Glissa, the Traitor does what she does … she kills stuff. Once you get a sword on her; the game is practically over.
Puresteel Paladin and Sigarda's Aid help with getting our swords on bodies. Fun fact: Arcum's Astrolabe is an artifact for metalcraft purposes.
Calix, Destiny's Hand is there to help look for our enchantments or to turn our enchantments into O-Rings.
Equiping Helm of the Host to Stoneforge Mystic is so pleasing!
Late Game
Should you find yourself with a Trove of Temptation and a bunch of treasure tokens; sink that mana into a Walking Ballista. If you need to beat down the opponent for a bit before you can ping them; you have access to Basilisk Collar ….
General
The deck looks like trash …. but it actually plays pretty well. I think it catches people off guard as I try to get my green and white lands out first and then slam down Blood Moon or Glissa, the Traitor.
While the deck can use some work; it is fun to play!
