Nilah
View on Wiki
Nilah isn't a very popular champion because her base deck is pretty awful. However, her constellation's ability to duplicate TWO card plays per round is very strong.
This makes her very well suited to 'cheese' strategies that focus on her abilities instead of her deck like Oath Gems and the Big Nilah strategy.
Grants a whole bucket of useful keywords, growing Nilah and making Sentinels Plate give better keywords.
Grows her even bigger in conjunction with Bouncing Blade.
Ensures you have more Nilahs, and gives you cheap access to Nilah's champ spell, enabling even more stats gained from Sentinels Plate.
Strategy
This build relies hitting Nilah with your own spells to grow her stats with Sentinels Plate.
Reroll the 1st power node for the 'Bouncing Blade' starting power. The Blade is 'Fleeting', so Nilah will double its effects. Continuously cast it on Nilah and watch Sentinels Plate rapidly grow her to astronomical stats. Likewise with her champ spell.
Strategy
Nilah's a cheap champ, so Oath Gems works pretty well. If you draw a fleeting copy of a champion, you can double play it.
Floods the deck with copies of Nilah, ensuring a constant stream of units to play.
Draws Pool Shark consistently, granting additional card draw per round.
Generates Epic items across the deck every time Nilah is summoned.
Strategy
This build leverages Nilah's low cost to repeatedly trigger Guardian's Orb. By intentionally sacrificing Nilah in combat and replaying the copies generated by Echoing Spirit and Found Fortune, players can stack numerous Epic items on their deck.

- Optimize Fleeting Cards
Carefully sequence your plays to maximize the duplication of high-value fleeting cards. Allow low-impact fleeting cards to be discarded so they shuffle back into the deck, preserving your resources and triggering discard synergies.
