As the name implies, this deck is filled with cards that let me look at and cast my top card while leaving you in the dark. Backing up this plan are cost reduction effects and flash enablers, which allow me to deploy my cards at any time for little to no mana. Rounding out the deck are subthemes of shamans and counters, which support a few of the play off the top and cost reduction effects. There's no dedicated path to victory beyond swinging sideways, though if everything lines up nicely, I might be able to steal a few wins with Shaman of Forgotten Ways.\n"}]}
