SIGNATURE SUPPORT
Witch
Witch is the bridge between defence and pressure. Protect its remaining health for the counterpush.
DECK BREAKDOWN
Witch
No dedicated win condition is the tower threat. Witch builds the counterpush, while the deck's main spell opens the connection that matters. The guide below explains when to commit each piece instead of merely listing the deck's roles.

THE EXACT 8-CARD LIST
DECK IDENTITY
The three cards that define the list
The name comes from the actual core: win condition first, signature support second, defining spell last. Close variants therefore get different, recognizable names.
PILOTING PLAN
What to do over the course of a match
A usable sequence for this exact eight-card list, with the commitment point made explicit.
Scout without losing the rotation
Use Bomber as the low-risk opener. Hold No dedicated win condition until you have identified the opponent's cleanest answer and its position in the cycle.
Defend into one counterpush
Take the efficient defence with Witch. Add No dedicated win condition only when that support survives or the opponent has just overspent; otherwise reset and keep the elixir lead.
Force the decisive connection
In double elixir, repeat No dedicated win condition faster but keep enough elixir for the deck's main spell. Cast it on the defensive answer and tower together; a spell with no push behind it does not advance the plan.
How it wins
The pressure this deck applies, strongest angle first.
- Bridge spam — fast units that punish an opponent mid-placement.
Where it breaks
Structural weak points read off the deck's own shell, not off a single matchup.
- No dominant structural weakness — this shell covers its own gaps, so its losses come from matchups and piloting rather than a missing answer.
