Analyzing the NEW Highest SAS KeyForge Deck!!

Recently, a Winds of Exchange KeyForge deck was opened that came out to a whopping 119 SAS on DoK!! Today we analyze this deck to answer some big questions -- how does this deck play? Why are its stats so high? And most importantly, is the deck as good as its ranking suggests? Tune in to find out!

I like this sort of content where you look at a deck to see what you expect from it, then play it enough to get familiar with it and go over the strengths, synergies, and weaknesses that you discovered along the way. Might be cool to see you do it with some of your favorite decks and/or random decks you find on DoK that you think would be strong and/or suit your play style rather than just whatever is the highest SAS.
Keep up the great work!

Thanks, glad you enjoyed! I definitely would like to try this process on more decks in the future!

I wonder if Key Abduction can be a Legacy ever. Would be fun if Grim Reminders or Æmber Skies will let it be

[@aembermedes]

I'm pretty sure Key Abduction will actually be in Grim Reminders as a regular card! In the preview they show for the personalized posters in the GR Gamefound campaign, if you look closely, Key Abduction appears to be one of the Mars cards :)

I haven't played soooo many WoE from myself or others yet, but I have played against many WoE myself. What I've noticed so far, BUT of course that could all be coincidence. With a WC, MM or CotA deck I had quite consistent rounds overall where I could assess the deck well. With WoE decks I personally noticed that by making tokens either the deck is completely expoded and the opponent had no change against it. Or the important cards were then tokens and not where they were supposed to be, for example in the hand to play. As I said, this could all be coincidence as I haven't had that many games yet. But maybe that's what happened to others too...

[@aembermedes]

The variance created by the tokenization mechanic is pretty wild and can lead to a lot of inconsistency within WoE gameplay! That's why I enjoy going back and playing older sets -- it feels like a breath of fresh air playing with a deck and knowing you're not at risk of losing a bunch of your cards to token creatures lol!

[@Papierzeit]

You know what, that's EXACTLY how I see it. WoE is something new, but I like the old sets better. @@aembermedes

While I love the content, I think SAS has failed in properly assessing WoE decks. I have a 73 deck (Brobnar, Star, Unfathom, Skirmisher token) that easily punches above its weight class. Last week I went 3-0 against an 85. Token creatures are incorrectly valuated by SAS across the board in my opinion.

Ngl sometimes you just have scisors to the opponents paper. I saw it happen. Had no artifact control and enemy was just stealing my creatures.. While my deck had like 7 upgrades.

Great video!

I only start to fear Berserker decks if they have Brikk's and Feats of strength/Fof. Without them they are often meh.

[@aembermedes]

Yeah, with the right supporting cards they're pretty scary, otherwise they can start feeling a little mid at times!
