The other part of this list I was not sold on was Eald'narche 5-147, but only due to personal play choices. I am down with an aggressive deck, but Eald'narche wants you to push as aggressively as you can in this game.

Having a chance to play with Vermilion Bird l'Cie Caetuna 6-010 made me excited, too. That backup makes Brynhildr 1-023 really powerful, putting some big forwards in range of the EX Burst and 3 CP removal.

I made a few edits, and here is the list I ran. I added Bomb 4-018 as Vikings are very popular in my meta. There are a couple of other choices I made because I did not have the full set of cards in my collection (happens).

Overall, I finished the night at 2 wins and 2 losses, which is better than I expected! I played an extra match against my Match 1 opponent, and ended up winning on the strength of some of the good Fire cards alone.

In Match 2, Dark Lord and Emperor Xande 2-007 came online and the synergy became very clear. Removing a card like Cloud of Darkness 5-126 just by entering combat and attacking with one Forward, and doing so every turn, is very strong.

In Match 3, I managed to Paradise with Eald'narche to victory, but it felt extremely uncomfortable. My opponent had 5 cards in hand, but it still worked out. This is absolutely not my style, so I do not expect to play with the card again for awhile.

In Match 4, an early Kam'lanaut 5-148 turned into a Fire Forward, and I felt behind as soon as it happened. My opponent also created the most feared situation of the deck, by seeing Dark Lord returned to my hand right after it was played onto the field.
