Game plan

The line-up CoachCrono used to win the Crimson Cup, coming back from the losers bracket: Three Not So Little Pigs, Van Helsing and Legion of the Dead. At the first tournament the other players' choices were unpredictable, so the Coach brought the strongest, most consistent line-up possible, built with his own ideas and those of the guys who helped him test, aiming to counter the Pigs more than Van Helsing. These are the lists Koin Games published on finals day, 25 October 2026.

The three decks

Deck A · Aggro

Pigs Aggro · Three Not So Little Pigs (Legendary)

Role in the set

Three Not So Little Pigs with Glinda, Sandman and Reinforcements, plus the damage of Bullseye, Stroke of Midnight and Obliterate. For the Coach the Pigs were the most annoying deck in the meta, even more than Van Helsing: in the finals they were in all four line-ups.

Deck B · Control

Van Helsing Control · Van Helsing (Legendary)

Role in the set

The deck that dominates the meta and that almost everyone was trying to counter. In the final against SouL, whose line-up was built to beat it, the Coach stole the first game with Van Helsing itself, helped by the locations: "I never thought I'd win a single matchup with Van Helsing".

Deck C · Midrange

Legion of the Dead Midrange · Legion of the Dead (Legendary)

Role in the set

The list the Coach never liked and didn't want to play, but strong in the meta: of the three, it was the best-performing deck in the tournament. It plays Obliterate, which according to the Coach is overperforming in aggro and midrange decks right now.

Conquest rules

Three different Legendaries and at least 8 different unique cards between any two decks, as in the Crimson Cup.

  • A and B: 13 different cards
  • A and C: 9 different cards
  • B and C: 10 different cards

Guide

Strengths

Consistency: three strong meta decks, without betting on a specific opponent. With this line-up the Coach went 9-3 on finals day, according to the official post, climbing from the losers bracket all the way to the title.

Weaknesses

Line-ups built specifically to beat it. SouL, with Merlin, Mulan and Three Not So Little Pigs tuned against Van Helsing, beat it 2-0 in the playoffs, and in the final the Coach felt "clearly at a disadvantage".

Matchups

Against SouL (Merlin, Mulan, Three Not So Little Pigs): 0-2 in the playoffs, which sent the Coach to the losers bracket; in the grand final, the first game won with Van Helsing, then the series at 2-2 and the title in the deciding game.

Notes

The champion's prize is the 1/1 Dracula promo card, the game's first 1-of-1. The full story of the tournament and the final is in the interview with CoachCrono on OriginsMeta.
