BG Know-How

“Welcome to my tavern, friends. Enjoy your stay!”

Standard Compositions: Nagas

These different compositions are meant to display proven setups to strive for, for the very end game (top 4 and above). In general one of the seven slots will be the 'flex' spot, used to cycle new minions during the tavern rounds. Therefore, your actual board will rarely be as perfect as these listed here. Of course as many minions as possible should be tripled (the exception being minions with Divine Shield or Venomous) and buffed with Reborn, Venomous, Divine Shield or Taunt.

If you got a build that buffs multiple minions via Rock Rock, Nalaa the Redeemer, or Greymane's Champion, the ideal cards you should be looking for should have a special effect such as Cleave or Divine Shield. Alternatively look for unique effects like Impulsive Trickster or Wildfire Elemental. But in general, just buff any card. Don't roll for the ideal, it can cost you the game to desperately try to find them. You want to scale early, not later.

Also primary support units like Brann and Tichondrius will usually be tossed for the very last fights, but are sometimes displayed here when being integral to the setup. If one of your units is lacking, it is also often beneficial to replace it with a Leeroy the Reckless or a Transmuted Bramblewitch, before a deciding fight.

With the buddy meta active also keep in mind that many buddies can be very powerful and therefore your buddy will often replace the weakest minion in your composition.




All available Naga and Naga-associated minions

Deep Blues Tier 4 Comp

Lava LurkerZesty ShakerZesty ShakerDeep Blue CroonerDeep Blue CroonerShellementalGlowscale

Stay on tier 4 to get as many Shakers and Crooners as possible (after you get a golden Crooner, Shakers are more valuable) to constantly increase the size of your Deep Blue spellcrafts. Use them on the Zesty Shakers to get extra copies. Lava Lurker is the best option to make the biggest stats gain permanent each round. Wrangler can be discovered by your triples or be replaced with Blade Collector, if Pirates are available.

Lord of Gains Comp

There are plenty of cards you want to look for that could definitely help out this build. Ensorcelled Fungus, Magnus Manastorm (from the Buddy Up spell), Saloon's Finest, Ignition Specialist, Glowscale, and Land Lubber are some of these cards.

Siren Comp

Corrupted MyrmidonSoft-hearted SirenSoft-hearted SirenSilivaz the VindictiveDrakkari EnchanterSlitherspear, Lord of GainsGlowscale

This is the above build, but an alternate way to pull it off. Soft-hearted Siren helps you get the spells you need to scale up, and it can provide more Spells than only having Silivaz. Ideally, you do want to have another Slitherspear if possible.
