Goratrix High Tower

{% endblock %} {% block archetype %}

Highlights

This is a wall deck starring {{ card("Goratrix") }}. Its superior I allows him to use {{ card("Sense the Savage Way") }}, a powerful addition to the A intercept module.

{{ card("Goratrix") }} combat ability is very good: as {{ card("Theft of Vitae") }}, its damage can not be prevented. The use of {{ card("Carrion Crows") }} for additional damage and {{ card("Canine Horde") }} against weapons makes for a powerful but slim combat module.

{{ card("Magic of the Smith") }} is used to fetch powerful equipments adapted to the table context. {{ card("Heart of Nizchetus") }} is always good, {{ card("Bowl of Convergence") }} adds additional intercept, {{ card("Ivory Bow") }}, {{ card("Kevlar Vest") }} and {{ card("Ruins of Ceoris") }} are great additions for combat.

The intercept module is very heavy, with 20 wakes not counting the {{ card("Cats' Guidance") }}, 9 bleed bounces to help deliver pool damage to the prey, and a total of 45 bonus intercept available accross 45 reaction cards.

Pool damage is done using {{ card("Anarch Revolt") }}, {{ card("Army of Rats") }} and {{ card("Smiling Jack, The Anarch") }}, with the addition of {{ card("Enkil Cog") }} at some point to have {{ card("Goratrix") }} bleed for 3 at the end of its predator's turn if he is still unlocked.

{{ card("Anarch Revolt") }} is ineffective if the prey gets Anarch vampires into play, but {{ card("Eagle's Sight") }} can be used to intercept these Anarchs whatever they do and dispose of them quickly.

Tips & Tricks

The sidekicks in the crypt also have the AI disciplines combination to help with intercept in case a {{ card("Pentex™ Subversion") }} is played.

{{ card("Rutor's Hand") }} and {{ card("Mylan Horseed") }} are used to enable {{ card("Goratrix") }} to act and still stay unlocked.

{{ card("Villein") }} and {{ card("Vessel") }} are used to bloat a bit from {{ card("Goratrix") }}, as its combat ability should ensure he never runs out of blood.

Given the disciplines span available to {{ card("Goratrix") }}, {{ card("The Erciyes Fragments") }} becomes very versatile. It can provide additional wakes and bounces but also bleed enhancers.

Variants

There are not many variants in this archetype. {{ card("Read the Winds") }} is often included in the intercept module, and surprise aggravated damage from v can be added, like {{ card("Breath of the Dragon") }} or {{ card("Chiropteran Marauder") }}.

It is possible to build a non-anarch version of this archetype. It looses the damages from {{ card("Anarch Revolt") }}, but gains access to {{ card("Abbot") }} and {{ card("Powerbase: Barranquilla") }}, like in {{ link("/deck-search", _("Jakub Baranowski's deck"), twda_id="2013pncnsp") }} from the 2013 Polish NC.
