Recently there's a surge of this deck. And it's garbage:

• Triss Meteor Shower? In a deck with no high base power unit?
• Braathens? Without Assimilate support? Basically playing for 11-12 points 11 provision?
• Alba Armored Cavalry? even though there's already Imprisonment?
• Ramon? To copy Alba Armored Cavalry and play a 5th Lock? Or to copy Ard Feainn Tortoise, playing for 11 points 10 provision?
• Roderick? As the only consistency tool in deck?

The deck literally has nothing at all. For a control deck it depends entirely on spamming Lock. For a pointslam deck it depends entirely on Blightmaker and Renfri's Gang, since all of its high-end golds have no synergy. For a midrange deck it has neither enough control or pointslam.

"It'S StRONg i SeE PeOPlE UsE It."

Oh but guess what? It's strong because it is created specifically just to target other decks. The secret win condition that brilliant people were using was actually Illusionist spam and Braathens into Duchess's Informant. The spamming lock strat is super inefficient in terms of control but works well against specific decks.

To sum it all up, Imprisonment Renfri is a deck created just to specifically target some decks, which explains why it works in the Qualifier. Don't play it in actual Pro Rank or you'll make a joke out of yourself.
