Description

{"ops":[{"insert":"This version of the deck uses nice arts so it is no longer 100$.\nThis deck is ultra focused on self milling and ramping into Bruna so that you can cast, and keep casting her on future turns, Ideally without your opponents interrupting you. As such we play certain cards like Grand Abolisher to prevent interaction during our turn. We include counterspells such as Disallow to stop graveyard exile effects such as Scavenger Grounds.\n"}]}
