I don't see where in my post it says not to remove strikes. But literally every single player who win streaks ascension 20 heart (myself included) knows that small decks are generally shit in this game and there is no reason to aim for them, except on Watcher because she needs to take like 2 cards to win the game. Ironclad is significantly more likely to win a run with 40 cards in his deck at his end than with 10, unless he found an infinite, in which case both probably win 100% of the time anyway.

What? I watch Baalor a fair bit and Jorbs as well. Both agree that card remove is stronger the more you do it. I can't speak for everyone but I've gotten the feeling that most high level players think that a small deck, generally speaking, is something to shoot for, unless there's a particular mechanic they're after. Like yeah of course Ironclad will want a lot of cards if he relies heavily on exhausting them.

But in the end it's probably better to know the pros and cons of big decks rather than just blindly preferring one over the other, then TC might be able to start making more informed decisions.
