66 cards not including ivy. Basically it has A LOT of draw and just "paper cuts" my opponent to death. nothing too special about it.

You seem to like to Research... and Anywhere. (i.e. you have 8 in your deck).

The problem with dual symboling a 6hs character is that it means you take an extra turn to set up. In order to play Financial Troubles and speed pump in the same turn you would have to be turn 3 at least (drossel or robes turn 1 with life foundations, troubles with all foundations). In other words, and becuase if you get switching weapon styles you 'may' want to attack heavy as early as turn 2, you should consider making her a solo symbol. Of if you do still dual, dual into a card that is a specific counter to long game shenanigans - i.e. dual into void and use paid to protect or life and torn hero.

Speaking of torn hero, he doesn't seem to be around here, and maybe that is becuase you are an incredibly agressive deck, so you just don't care if your opponent can stun you out on their turn. Sadly though, Astrid will be able to block the paper cuts and in return reversal pommel Ivy down, effectively ending your draw and limiting your damage. i.e. Torn Hero is still important in this deck.

Obviously you need Path of the Master, you should see who you can trade with for some... And you should also get your hands on 2 Ragin Gnomes if that is what you want to do. I have 2, and since I don't do Ivy, I'd give them to you in a heartbeat.

It is a good start to a deck, but does need some pretty big refinements.

oops, should be researching the past. gues i should have reread it before i posted. lol.

i hate PoTM, espically in ivy, it's just broken.what's that? raging gnome for 30? sorry about that. not my type of win. i know that if i go to gencon or even the city champs i'll pretty much HAVE to use it but for now i'd like to stay away from it. then torn hero is iffy with me too...
