What this deck is

Battle Ram Cycle is a cycle shell built around Battle Ram. It sits at 3.1 elixir, which sets how often you can repeat its pressure and how much you can afford to defend before answering back.

How it wins

  • Cycle pressure — the same cheap threat returns faster than the answer.

Where it breaks

  • One-dimensional: answer the single win condition and the deck runs out of plans.
