Strategy
This can be quite a fast and furious deck.
The classic play from The First Chapter still remains a good opening option – turn one: Lilo – Making a Wish, turn two: Simba – Protective Cub. Maleficent – Biding Her Time is also a good turn one character for this play too.
Alternatively, and new with Rise Of The Floodborn is turn one: The Queen – Regal Monarch, turn two: shifting into The Queen – Commanding Presence. Another shift option is Stitch – Rock Star though you will have to wait a little longer for this. There are 32 characters costing 2 ink or less which makes Stitch – Rock Star and his ability a good choice.
Finding Arthur – Wizard’s Apprentice early on is the main focus as you can rack up lore fairly quickly. Cards such as Be Our Guest and Friends On The Other Side can help look for him. Look out for combos with Merlin – Goat to gain 5 lore in one turn by playing and bouncing back to hand (or 6 lore if you have enough ink to play him again afterwards). Questing with Pinocchio – Star Attraction and Arthur – Wizard’s Apprentice will bag you 6 lore also.
Healing options are good ol’ Rapunzel – Gifted with Healing and even Madam Mim – Fox and Madam Mim – Snake are good ways to “heal” by bouncing characters back to hand.
With so many cheap characters with low Willpower, be mindful of playing such a wide board.

The main focus of this deck is to bounce Merlin characters back to hand to benefit from their abilities. There are several other bounce related plays too.
When played or when he leaves play, Merlin – Goat allows you to gain a lore, Merlin – Rabbit lets you draw a card and Merlin – Crab gives a chosen character Challenger +3 this turn which can help with challenging. Any of the Madam Mim characters, Arthur – Wizard’s Apprentice, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo and Bounce will all allow you to bounce Merlin characters.
Some passive bounce options include Cruella de Vil – Miserable As Usual, HeiHei – Persistent Presence and Yzma – Scary Beyond All Reason who can shift onto Yzma – Alchemist. Some of which can be used defensively or offensively.
Card draw options are Friends On The Other Side, Merlin – Rabbit, Yzma – Scary Beyond All Reason and Kuzco – Wanted Llama.
