I know very little about playing NG. The strongest metas in the game right now seem to use the leader abilities as a crutch so I figured if I'm going to play NG (My least favourite faction) It works for me to take away those advantages. But nothing I try is really working and I need some help.
At first I tried to make a themed '**** your strategy' deck and fill it up with vipers, infiltrators and other tricky units like Tibor and the guy who can discard cards from the opponents deck. The aim being to try and deplete my opponent of all his most useful cards. It didnt really work out. All I felt like I was doing is sacrificing my entire recruit cost to do some partial damage to the opponents synergies whilst pretty much eliminating all of my own.
As Usurper I expect to get 0 mulligans so I cant do witcher trio or any kind of deck thinning. Banking too hard on certain unit interactions also seems risky. So now im wondering if my focus should be playing big units with high strengths and just trying to brute force my opponent. So Tibor, Golem, D'ao, running two recruits instead of spotters and getting rid of all my reveal stuff, for a start. Is this a good idea or are there other things I could be looking into?
