Strategy
Ashgerdy Hive Queen is a unique deck that relies on pairing Hive Mind Queen's card draw with Ashgerdy's ramp abilities to outvalue the opponent. The deck contains a minimum of 295 cards in order to satisfy the Queen's start of game condition. It is usually constructed with an overabundance of cheap units, especially one drops, to be able to use the card advantage effectively without overdrawing, and simultaneously build a wide board to activate Ashgerdy's passive repeatedly. Ash's level 2 and 3 rewards are both capable of ramping the player's mana. Since the deck focuses on quantity over quality, the increased mana should be used to play several low cost cards instead of a single high cost card, if possible. Other card choices should focus on various removal options such as Incendium and Explosive Incantation (lack of consistent removal to deal with threats that can deal direct damage or are evasive is a major weakness of the deck), and select general good lategame units such as Submerged Predator and Rainbow Dragon. Discretion should be taken in including cards that generate card advantage, as they will contribute to overdrawing on a full hand.
