This is the Way

Description:

I picked discipline, because in a 3 or 4-player team you will fight more often than not. I would change it to depending on the campaign for healing purposes mostly.

While using Down the Rabbit Hole, the card In the Thick of It is no brainer. Not only gives you 3xp, but saves you another 3xp from purchasing 3 lvl 1 cards at deck creation for having DtRH. Or you could run 2 lvl 1 Runic Axe and have more space for lvl 0 guardian cards.

You don't need to bring Prepared for the Worst, because you have 2 Backpacks, 5 weapons, 2 Beat Cops, 2 Spectral Razors, 5 base , 2 Ace of Swords, the Cat Mask and the Wolf Mask. You will find your most wanted weapons with Backpacks later on.

As for the Stick to the Plan, I would put there Ever Vigilant, Sweeping Kick and Refine. Later you can swap Refine with On the Hunt. If you won't have Ever Vigilant yet, just get Emergency Cache.

Upgrade path:

Remeber, that you have Down the Rabbit Hole, so upgrades are better, than purchasing new cards.

1. Get Stick to the Plan with Ever Vigilant and Backpack upgrades fast,

2. Focus on upgrading your Runic Axe using Refine and discounts from DtRH. I would get Scripteweaver, Saga and most likely inscription of Glory and the Elders,

3. Invest in your armor after you've sharpened your axe. Remember, an axe warrior is no good without armor. Turn them into relics, so you can still wear a Backpack. There is no point in wearing lvl 0 Hunter's Armor, because it sucks and there is no space for so many lvl 0 guardian cards anyway. That's why it is not included at deck creation. Upgrades: Enchanted, Durable, Hallowed, Armor of Thorns, Protective Runes,

4. Don't make Beat Cops wait too long for a promotion,

5. Enchant Weapon and Fang of Tyr'thrha are good additions to your fighting skills later on. You can very easily pick up clues with Enchant Weapon using inscription of the Elders,

6. Vicious Blow upgrades are very nice, but I wouldn't say a high priority,

7. If you find yourself always getting into too much trouble with hordes of enemies, pick Mk 1 Grenades with Emergency Cache upgrades,

8. You can get the Enchanted Blade upgrades if you have too much xp.

While adding new cards, get rid of Ceremonial Sickle, Delve Too Deep, Refine, Cat Mask and maybe some lesser skills.

Keep in mind, that Hunter's Armor, Enchant Weapon and Enchanted Blade can take away your arcane slots.

For discipline combo you can use cards like Spectral Razor, Sweeping Kick, Fang of Tyr'thrha and of course any weapon and fists.

Good luck in your journey!
