    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I feel that the slightly different take is because the first list had DRS, and since it got banned, the second list got a new take.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I've used an Imperial Recruiter list for several years and use 4 Cabal Therapy supplemented by 2 Duress main board (2 more Duress in the board) and am very happy with it, especially when I can Duress...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    It's not really stock, but I've done well with this list with a few tweaks here and there dependent on expected meta. I haven't played it in a couple months though as I'm taking a bit of a break to...

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    I don't like FoW in the deck, too many blue cards I'd prefer to play than I feel fine with pitching to Force. I also prefer Duress over Thoughtseize, I play the discards to protect the combo, not so...

    There's also Imperial Recruiter, but most people eschew even talking about it because Recruiter of the Guard is considerably cheaper.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    You could also just play one o them and pay the life to return the Harpy to hand to recast it off the Aluren in response the to the removal spell. 2 Isn't needed, but it's a nice safety net.

    A lot of this first needs answered in are you going with BUG, Imperial Recruiter, or Recruiter of the Guard. All three versions play a bit differently from each other.

    Re: [Deck] Aluren

    The Stoneforge Mystics don't make any sense in this deck, I think you would be better served in making Pact of Negation a 3 of, add the 4th Baleful Strix, and add a Sylvan Library or something.
