What this deck is

Mortar Siege is a siege shell built around Miner, Mortar. It sits at 3.0 elixir, which sets how often you can repeat its pressure and how much you can afford to defend before answering back.

How it wins

The pressure this deck applies, strongest angle first.

  • Siege — the tower is attacked from your side of the bridge.
  • Cycle pressure — the same cheap threat returns faster than the answer.

Where it breaks

Structural weak points read off the deck's own shell, not off a single matchup.

  • Thin anti-air: air win conditions get value before an answer lands.
