Odin Tree

"I know that I hung on a windy tree Nine long nights"

Like with the Odin tree, this deck is nothing but a slow death. The idea is simple. Either never advance out Braintrusts or stick an Edge of World and Ryon Knight in the server and play An Offer You Can't Refuse. If they accept said offer, throw them into the server. If not, claim your free point.

If they run without a sentry breaker, you can throw them into a Brainstorm.

If they run last click, you can push them into a server with a Ryon Knight. Easy brain damage.

The greatest satisfaction is the look of confusion on your opponents face when you play AOYCR. They're not the only one who's gone mad.

This is cool.

How well does your expensive ice and EOW synergize with the ice-removal ID effect? I run tons of cheap ice in my AgInfusion deck. Also a scored Labyrinthine Servers spells instant death on a 4-5 advanced Project Junebug :)

Ryon Knight on a server that you force a runner into on your turn is kinda genius. That said, I feel like scoring out with this deck will be difficult. How do you intend to combat a runner that just tells you to take the point?

@zmb usually the punishing ice goes in the remote. Brainstorm I don't rez unless it fires. ETRs for the centrals. I haven't had any issues with the ice selection.

@PurinaBisonChow it's all about the Braintrusts. Offer becomes a tough decision for the Runner when you're on 4 or 5 points.

Ok. Not sure I get the "never advance out Braintrust". IME this is not a very good agenda

@zmb it's advantage is it's a 3/2. You stick it in a remote and they don't know if it's a EoW or an agenda. Score two of these and you can close out the game with the AOYCR.

Why no Philotic Entanglement? Imo it's strictly better than Braintrust - it has the same advantage (being a 3/2) plus an actual effect when you score it.
