Diana Shrivels All Night

This is a combat-focused deck for a two player campaign, built around plenty of cancel/ignore cards to quickly get Diana to 6 and then let her shrivel all the enemies.

I have calculated with ~30xp and with plenty of spells Arcane Research will discount for another 7xp.

Key Cards

With Arcane Research Shrivelling (lvl 5) is discounted to 3xp when upgraded in steps. This version is great for handling 3 health enemies, and combined with Twila Katherine Price Diana will be killing enemies all night. Keep Counterspell and Eldritch Inspiration in hand (or beneath investigator card when Twilight Blade is out) to avoid going insane.

Jewel of Aureolus will help keep the tempo up and "I've had worse…" and Uncage the Soul both help with economy.

Arcane Initiate is for digging out Shrivelling (or boosting spell cards) and will serve as meat wall afterwards.

The deck has a total of 15 cards that can be used to boost , so they should be easy to come by, which means Diana will almost always have cards in hand to resupply when played from beneath the investigator card.
