Deck Notes

Consider the following card-specific concepts while playing this deck:

• In the initial hand (opening draw), the most important card to mulligan for is Mr. "Rook", followed by Holy Rosary (or Hemispheric Map), and lastly Sixth Sense.
• Occult Lexicon allows converting drawn cards into either additional resources or damage to enemies via Blood-Rite.
• Use Mr. "Rook" to get the card that is currently needed.
• Barricade is a one-off card to help lock a location using Luke's special ability (i.e., playing an event remotely).
• Knowledge is Power is a one-off card because it may only target the assets: Shrivelling and Sixth Sense (4 cards).
• Play the Banish or Spectral Razor events, or use the Shrivelling arcane asset, to deal with enemies.
• Uncage the Soul may used to play Shrivelling, Sixth Sense, Read the Signs, Spectral Razor, and, in a pinch, Banish and Ward of Protection (12 cards).
• Enraptured should be used to place a charge on Gate Box (or Shrivelling) or a secret on Mr. "Rook" (or Dayana Esperence), as dictated by the current state of the game.

The cards listed in the Side Deck represent possible card upgrades.
