Rush of Ikorr Merciless Battlegrounds – Izanagi, He Who Beckons Deck Recipe

Izanagi, He Who Beckons is a Ambition Prophecy Avatar. We have crafted a tried-and-true Aggro deck utilizing cheap efficient champions, aggressive keywords, and high attack. This Izanagi deck is great for supporting allies in multi-player 2 vs 2 and 3 vs 3 formats. This is especially true when partnering with control decks. Izanagi’s Avatar Power says “If target allied player controls one or fewer champions, the next champion they summon this turn costs 2 less to summon (to a minimum of 1).” With a RUSH Ability saying “Choose an allied player. That player summons a champion with an influence cost of 6 or less from their hand.” This will be particularly useful for getting allied players with control decks up to speed by laying down Champions, rather than playing solely spells in the early game.

Exploit Izanagi’s Avatar Ability with Niobe Sulking Stone. Niobe Sulking Stone says “All cards cost 1 more to play”, with a health of 5 making it difficult to remove from play. Izanagi’s Avatar Power will help negate this effect on the allied side of the battlefield while disrupting your opponent’s strategy through the increase in Influence cost to play cards. Additionally, include cards like Homer Sovereign Scribe to further defuse the effects of Niobe Sulking Stone on your side of the battlefield.

Summon the ultimate offense with Amun Warrior, allowing you to gain +1 attack for each non-Fabled Champion you control. Add in Ra Warrior, gaining +2 attack on your turn. Cast the Prevailing Reign Spell which states “Until the end of this turn, champions you control get +2 attack and are Warriors in addition to their other types”.

Kaqutsuchi Fatal Flame is a heavy-hitting Fabled Champion with an attack of 6 with Quick Strike and Swift. However this 4 drop comes with a cost, Kagutsuchi reads “SUMMON – Deal 4 damage to an allied champion. If that champion is a God, destroy it instead.” Kagutsuchi is best paired with a Champion with Reanimate or in this case Swift Messenger infused with the Enduring Spirit Infusion card. This will allow you to reap the benefits of Kagutsuchi while still being able to bring your allied Champion back online. Burnt Incense Ritual will also help you get your sacrificed Champion back into your hand while also reducing its cost to summon it by 1.

Layer your hefty Champion deck with powerful aggro Spells. The Plague of Arrows spell card reads “Deal 1 damage to each opposing champion. Stun each Human dealt damage this way”. We’ve also included Heat Lightning, which is another Spell card that allows you to hit your opponents with non-strike damage.

Rush of Ikorr Merciless Battlegrounds – Apollo, Prophet of Harmony Deck Recipe

Apollo, Prophet of Harmony is an Intuition Prophecy deck. This deck in particular focuses on top deck manipulation by utilizing the Foresee mechanic with a low to mid-range curve. Apollo’s Avatar ability allows players to Foresee 2, then they may scrap 1. If they do, draw a card. Apollo’s RUSH ability has mass impact especially in multi-player formats, allowing any number of allied players to search their deck for a card and put it on top of their deck. Pairing this with the right allies in a 2 vs 2 and 3 vs 3 format can completely change the trajectory of the game to your favor!

Optimize Apollo’s Avatar Power with Pythia, Eye of Delphi as your win con. On ACTION – Choose a card name, then scrap 1. If the scrapped card has the chosen name, secure 1 Ikorr. A key component of this deck is optimizing Pythia’s abilities while keeping her in play as long as possible.

Utilize cards with “Foresee” like Oracular Visions and Delphi Heart of the Earth to raise topdecking and instantly secure Ikorr. Use Homer, Sovereign Scribe to get Pythia out for cheaper while allowing you to Forsee the top 3 cards of your deck.

Exploit Pythia’s card ability, “Spells you cast cost 1 less to cast” with spells like Thunderbolt, Essence of the Dolphin, Essence of the Crow, and Essence of the Wolf. For mass damage and game control include the Plague of Arrows spell which reads, “Deal 1 damage to each opposing champion. Stun each Human dealt damage this way.” This will prevent the opposing team from securing any stored Ikorr allowing you to secure Ikorr through Pythia’s card effect while they are immobilized.

Get Pythia back from your graveyard with Osiris Reborn, Burnt Incense Ritual, Chryses Tenacious Priest, and Tresses of Nephthys. These cards will make her a nuisance for your opponents to destroy.

Provide protection for Pythia with cards like Achaean Soldier and Agamemnon Resolute King which is a heavy hitting Fabled Champion that will help you get the Achaean Solider out for no cost in the later game.

Rush of Ikorr Merciless Battlegrounds – Poseidon, Titanic Trident Deck Recipe

Poseidon Titanic Trident is a Curiosity Devotion Avatar. This deck is a Pyramid Control Deck focused on keeping your opponent’s board locked down. This deck is a slow burn with an alternate win condition using the Great Pyramid if your opponents answer your Champions. We have loaded this deck with removal and control cards with a mid to high curve. Poseidon’s RUSH ability reads “Put all champions with an attack of 3 or less on the bottom of their owner’s deck”. To combat this card effect Poseidon’s Avatar ability allows you to draw the bottom card of your deck.

Use cards like Nereid and Wepwawet Opener of the Ways to activate Poseidon’s Avatar Power for no cost. Nereid’s card effect says, “As long as this champion shares a loyalty with an avatar you control, that avatar’s power costs 2 less to activate”. Poseidon plays well with others or at least in this deck. These cards are game changers in multi-player 2 vs 2 and 3 vs 3 formats to make your allies’ Avatar Powers cost 2 less influence to active. Build a team of powerful allies and these card effects can mean lights out for your opponents!

Poseidon’s Wrath, Watatsumi Guardian Swell, and Tsunami are a few other cards we’ve included in this deck to further deck manipulation and support Poseidon’s Avatar Ability.

These cards plus Accomplished Architect will help you get to your Great Pyramid. The Great Pyramid reads “When a champion you control leaves the battlefield, store all Ikorr held by that champion on this location. ACTION – Secure 1 Ikorr from this location”. Getting this Location out in the early game will apply pressure to your opponents as you start securing Ikorr from your alternate win condition on a Location that is tricky to destroy.

Pester your opponents by disrupting their strategy with cards like Medjay. Medjay reads “SUMMON – Stun target champion and remove up to 2 Ikorr from it”. Siren and Master Brewer are other stun effect cards we’ve included that will lock down your opponents’ board allowing you to control the pace of the game.

Scylla Serpent of Messina and Charybdis Whirlpool Terror are a fun addition to this deck ensuring your opponents become stuck between a rock and a hard place. These powerhouse Fabled Champions allow you to gain additional attacks when they are controlled together. Scylla reads “RAID – Strike target opposing champion. If you control a champion named “Charybdis”, strike any number of target opposing champions instead”.
