Just wrapped a match in the D ranks (I am a lapsed player just returning) against some kind of control haven with Imperial Saint and Terra Finis in it, during a meta that has been PUNISHING control from all I can tell.
Does anyone have a deck list? I’m curious what it is and whether I had a bad match (handless blood variant, I know, but it’s D ranks ffs) or whether this has legs - I miss control

Control haven is pretty dead in this meta, and so too kinda is handless blood in rotation. When even the combo decks can end turns 6-8, handless loses a lot of its value. Plus many decks are running gilnelise or other healing even if they aren't dedicated to it like a control deck (can't wait for giln to rotate, but that's beside the point)
I'm A0 but I've actually had a bit of fun with control Haven. Sanctuary knocks out Chess Rune and can block Magachiyo Forest as well. Loading up with followers that can't be targeted hits spellboost hard. When Shadow drops instyndet (sp?) They just release your Amulet followers. Biggest issues I've had are against Dragon, just cuz of ramp.
I would love a decklist to aim at for a while, I enjoy memes as much as wins
You had a bad matchup. Crystallise has actual legs, Amulet has some people messing with it to not much success but Heal is getting even less play than them right now.
