This deck has become one of my favorite Skellige decks and honestly it might be the most fun I've had on ladder in a while.
The core identity is a discard engine backed by some of the most powerful individual cards in the game. Round 1 you want to activate your discard package — Birna Bran and Skald are your key pieces here — while playing some of your tall bronzes to build a solid board. Don't overcommit though, save your big guns for later.
The dream line is a clean 2-0. Round 2 you go all in — play your tall cards on Melee like Tyr, Gerd, bear, etc; follow up with Sove and leader for massive point swings, then close with Triss: Meteor Shower as your finishers. Play Renfri when seems fit.
If Round 1 goes badly — bad draws happen — don't panic. Play just 3 cards and pass. You can comfortably defend Round 2 with Sove and Renfri alone, then take a long Round 3 on your terms.
This deck rewards patience and knowing when to commit. Once it clicks, it feels absolutely unstoppable.
