![Ascent Day 2 Wind Shadowstrike Tristan Deck Profile - And How Id Change It! [Grand Archive TCG]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QIrdP1vHfcA/mqdefault.jpg "Ascent Day 2 Wind Shadowstrike Tristan Deck Profile - And How Id Change It! [Grand Archive TCG]
We just got back from Ascent Niagara, and it was my first time competing in a major since January!
Tristan is a comfort deck for me, so we tweaked the list the night before for an expected meta, and while our calls were almost spot on - I got cursed by matching up with the minority of the meta that we gave up matches for during most of the event! I played 3 Tristan Mirrors and 4 Razorgale matches that weekend - and only 2 Crux Merlin!
In this Deck Profile, well look at the Wind Shadowstrike Tristan list that I brought, the specific tech choices I made for this metagame, and then Ill go through my Hindsight is 20/20 changed list that I WOULD have brought if I could go back in time! Hopefully my thoughts are useful for you if you are considering taking Tristan to Auckland or Akihabara later this year, or just want to try some new toys out in your current build!
