Good list with a score of 24 - 9 to enter pro from rank 3. This is a win rate of over 72%. I wanted to try making a new variant of Reavers after the buffs to mobilization and Avallac'h: Sage. The Siege variant was nice because it enables you to run extra thinning with the siege masters and offers quite a bit of surprise value and extra quick board clear. Here are a few advantages to running Siege Reavers: Explosive short round with Siege Opponents can be confused as to what you run when you open with Siege, they will usually assume it'll be the Muta Siege list and not heatwave your siege Not wasting a lot of provisions on consistency like Oneiro and Amphibious Gameplan: I usually play the combo that I have the best hand for, meaning Siege + atleast 2 siege engines, and maybe some other playable cards like Sergeant and Bearification, or Casting Contest. Otherwise I'd prefer to start out with Ildiko. On blue coin a Scout into Stratagem is also nice if ildiko is not drawn Siege can also be nice for a R2 push to get out some important combo pieces, so that you can then use the leader on your Reaver Scouts in R3 to quickly set up more Reavers Depending on the matchup, you can also combine Scenario + Reavers in an all out R2 push If you go for a 10 card R3 try using atleast one of mushy or garrison before and be careful about board space especially when reviving and duplicating the scouts The Sergeant offers some nice pointslam in a short R3 if you are out of Reaver Hunters, spam them in a short round I usually try running one round with Ildiko, one with Siege and one with leader to quickly set up Matchup tips: Generally the matchup can be quite difficult if the opponent plays a super greedy list that sets up quickly, it can be necessary to spend mushy + garrison to win R1 in that case The same goes for control heavy lists, I usually try getting all their control tools out in R1, but some decks are basically just control NG Constructs with Olgierd and alchemists: This is a very difficult matchup, and why I'm running mastercrafted spear and margarita, it is very important to win R1 and then all out bleed R2 to get the Colossal Ifrit out, without that their Leto does not play for a lot of points. Make sure to immediately kill the Ifrit Melitele: This can also be difficult due to their immense swarm. Try winning R1 with Reavers and then set up a push with Siege in R2, there is no need to trigger the final step until they have for example Germain on the board. You can then happily set up your Reaver Hunters to chip away at the units, and once you need a big clear you can play your second Siege Engine Muta Siege: Make sure to Bearification their Muta if possible, otherwise you'll have a real hard time winning Reasons for some inclusions: Hubert is cheap thinning, plus quite a bit of value and synergizes well with the Siege package and the Sergeant Sergeant has very good pointslam value, which is quite appreciated once you have set up all your Reavers. Additionally Sergeant can be copied in a short round for some explosive points Bearification patches some matchups like Muta Siege, and plays for decent value otherwise Mastercrafted spear for some specific targeting, also synergizes well with the pings from reavers to kill 2 dangerous units at once Margarita is for some annoying units like Olgierd Engineering Solution can also be used to thin out the Secret Service, it can be stuck in the deck. Plus it helps protect the Scout from a Riptide or damage in general. I used to run TA before, and I just prefer the thinning that I can get in some matchups Considerations: Remove 1 carrobalista for a sergeant. I'm not sure if we run too few siege engines for Siege though Replace Margarita and Mastercrafted Spear for Ves and a Sergeant Replace Hubert with Idarran
