Desert Revenant DEV Stream! Full Leper run!

It will be a quite enjoyable Stream!
See you all this evening!
DESERT REVENANT Developer Stream part 2!
We're going to continue this weekend's run with the Leper this evening at 6:00 p.m GMT! We've had a lot of nervy and clutch moments last time but we built a pretty awesome deck and got us some interesting talents.
This evening we're going to continue the run and try to defeat both the Golden King and King of Vengeance to hopefully get ourselves a Victory run!
DESERT REVENANT Dev Stream!
We will be Streaming this evening at 6:00 p.m GMT and it's going to be an interesting one!
