Game plan
the ideal is Sandman T1 into Merlin's Prophecy and Spellbook T2, you survive by removing pieces with the spells or healing with Tin Woodman. To build a board, Sorcerer's Apprentice and spell spam, it creates a board and boosts it in one turn; if you want you can play Forbidden Knowledge as soon as the opponent has prio so they waste a turn and you always start over with the apprentice

you only look for Sandman and Spellbook, it can be useful to keep Three Blind Mice or Golden Egg against swarm decks to have more board in the first turns
