This deck is all about triggering powerful Deathwishes through Consuming your units.
Some of the key cards explained:
Abaya - One of the major force multipliers in this deck. Abaya can duplicate the Deathwish triggers on any unit, including Gold units. The best ways to use this card are (in order): use Dagon's 5-Counter Deathwish an extra time, steal an additional unit with Miruna (huge if you're aiming for a specific target and missed the first time, or if both targets have synergy with each other), create an extra duplicate of a Succubus using Arachas Queen, or spam units with Brewess: Ritual.
Brewess - Of the three crones, you want to play this one last if you fear removal and first if you are confident your opponent has no removal (for example, you have other high priority targets out already and see they are not being removed). If you play all three, the Brewess will have three Consume charges regardless on when she is played, but the Weavess and Whispess depend on when they are played. However, of the three effects, Brewess's Consume charges are by far the most important to your strategy.
Crystal Skull - Why do we not run Urn of Shadows? Urn of Shadows is very strong here but being able to veil a turn 1 Weavess: Incantation is huge. It can also protect your high power Deathwish units like Brewess: Ritual or Miruna if you do not want to instantly Consume them, saving them for something like an Abaya or Arachas Queen combo, and fear them getting Locked before you can follow up.
Dagon: Promised - One of your main win conditions. This deck makes it so easy to kill your Infused units that I've been able to summon Dagon somewhat reliably... during Round 1, by bringing them out with cards like Brewess: Ritual and Whispering Hillock, and then duplicating the Deathwish triggers with cards like Abaya and Weavess: Incantation. Or count your triggers and save summoning him for Round 2. I've also had 4 Dagons on the field before with this deck.
Dol Dhu Lokke - 3rd Succubus and comes with an Order ability that sticks your Dagon on top of your deck for next round. Or your Brewess: Ritual if you already drew your Dagon. Or your Arachas Queen. Or your... you get it. The Resilience is mostly useless since you'll want to stick a strong card on top of your deck with this before you draw 3 for the next round, unless you're up against Nilfgaard's top-of-deck shenanigans.
Miruna - Disrupt the s*** out of your opponent's strategy by duplicating Miruna's Deathwish triggers when an opponent drops those low-power but powerful-effect combo pieces at the start of the round.
Succubus - One of your main win conditions. For this combo to work, you just need a Succubus in your graveyard, 4 or less cards in hand, and at least one Succubus on the field. While you have 4 or less cards and a Succubus in your graveyard, every Succubus you sacrifice comes back at the end of the round to be sacrificed again. You have two and can make a third with Dol Dhu Lokke, as well as a fourth by eating a Succubus with Arachas Queen and a fifth and sixth if you duplicate Arachas Queen's Deathwish with Abaya and Weavess: Incantation.
Whispering Hillock - Can search Deathwish units, absolutely phenomenal in this deck. It can bring out units Infused by Dagon the same round they became Infused. Remember that Dagon can Infuse any unit with a Deathwish ability, turning Whispering Hillock into a pseudo-Oneiromancy.
