Strategy
Crucias, Titan of the Waves is a clever tutor engine disguised as a pirate. Every turn, you're discarding cards and generating Treasure tokens while tutoring something from your deck—choosing to search up either expensive threats (ambitious) or cheap utility (expedient) based on what you pitched. This gives you incredible flexibility and card selection. Build around effects that reward discarding, cheap cantrips you don't mind tossing, and a curve that lets you leverage both the Treasure ramp and tutored threats.
The deck wants to play Crucias early and protect her while you generate value. You'll chain discards together, building a hand full of tutored answers and threats while accruing Treasure mana. The gameplan pivots depending on the board state: go ambitious to fetch a bomb finisher, or expedient to grab interaction and answers. Win by either casting a slate of high-impact spells fueled by Treasure, assembling a combo, or turning Crucias into a clock with pump effects.
