Regent Build

Regent Star Battery Build

A good Regent run starts here. Once the deck gains Stars every fight and most turns, the expensive or flashy payoff cards finally become consistent.

Opening Plan

Build the first working version

Venerate is the starting baseline. Add steady Star income first, then choose the spender that the rest of the deck can support.

Draft Rule

Know when the package is real

Track income and spending separately. A large bank with no payoff and an expensive payoff with no income fail for opposite reasons.

Synergy

How the pieces connect

Venerate and Gather Light provide immediate Stars, Hidden Cache shifts a larger gain into next turn, and Genesis establishes two Stars every turn. Together they make repeated Star payoffs reliable instead of occasional.

How To Play It

Turn order that makes the package work

A rough sequence for the deck's key turn. Real runs shuffle the order, but this is how the pieces are meant to chain: set the engine, then spend into the payoff.

  1. Genesis card artworkGenesis

    Install income: +2 Stars every turn is the battery the rest of the deck draws from.

  2. Hidden Cache card artworkHidden Cache

    Front-load next turn: 1 Star now and 3 more next turn smooths the ramp.

  3. Venerate card artworkVenerate

    Top up on demand: a flat +2 Stars whenever the bank is short of a payoff.

  4. Gather Light card artworkGather Light

    Bank while defending: 8 Block plus 1 Star means income never costs you a safe turn.

Core Cards

The four cards that define the shell

These are engine markers, not four mandatory picks. The tier label follows the current character board; an unranked card can still be the narrow piece that completes this shell.

Relic Signals

Relics that make the lane stronger

These relics improve the package, but they are not entry tickets. Draft a working deck first and treat the relic as a reason to lean harder into a line that already functions.
