So I look long and hard at this board (about 8 seconds instead of my usual 2!), find myself tempted by a Throne Room engine, but end up thinking that while there is Necropolis, without at least a cantrip you can throne it would be too inconsistent to work, so I settle for a very boring Vault-BM.

But then Stef pile drives the Throne Rooms and shows me why you should never lose faith in the engine.
