Hi everyone! I’m planning to build a Mipedian deck, but I'm torn between two completely different playstyles and need some advice on which direction to take for a Portal to Perim (PtP) format:

1. Warbeast Deck: I love the raw power and the high-risk, high-reward flavor of Warbeasts and Conjurors. How viable are they right now, and what are the mandatory key cards to make them sustainable against aggro?
2. Invisibility Strike Deck: On the flip side, I really like the classic Mipedian stealth approach. What are the best baseline units and Battlegear to maximize those massive first-strike bursts?

Looking for Decklists and Meta Resources

Since I want to experiment with both, I'm having a bit of trouble finding updated lists for specific formats.

• Where can I find Portal to Perim decklists? Is there an archive, specific creators, or a database people use for this old-school format?
• Where do people post Chaotic Recode / Rewind lists? I know Recode is very active and Rewind lets you sync your Discord scans to battle, but where is the actual hub for community lists, tier lists, or tournament-winning decks?

If there are specific Discord channels, YouTube channels (like The Jovinater), or forums I should check out, please drop the links below!

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi everyone! A friend and I recently picked up Chaotic again. He is playing Overworlds and I'm playing this Danian/M'arrillian mix from the starter decks. We are playing casual 6v6.

I'm looking for advice on placement (front/backline), battlegear assignments, and how to transition into a proper Hive deck or a full M'arrillian deck.

Here is my current decklist:

Creatures:

• Hermatred
• Irrabeq
• Nimmei
• Rebant
• Tabaal
• Uholdan
• Neth'uar

Battlegear:

• Phobia mask
• Sinister statuette
• Aspect amplifier: bravery
• Prism of fright
• Mind prism
• Parasite tablet

Mugic:

• Etude of exhaustion, Prelude to dominance, Specific diminishing, Draining dirge, Symphony of similarity, Intense polyphony.

(Note: Attacks and Locations are standard from the starter deck)

Attacks
Rip tide x2
Torrent of water x2
Deluge of doom x2
Daunting bravery x2
Terror-fying tackle x2
Stupefying tide x2
Ghost gouge x2
Spirit gust x2
Shadow strike x2
Fear projection x2

Locations
Chamber of waves x2
Brawlers burrow x2
Vidav's reflectorium x2
The hive gallery x2
Psikoom madness chamber x2

My questions:

1. Who should be my main frontline fighters and who should protect the backline?
2. What are the best Battlegear combos for this specific list?
3. Should I focus on removing Neth'uar to make a pure Danian Hive deck, or lean heavier into M'arrillian brainwashing?

Any tips, strategy guides, or cheap card recommendations to upgrade this deck are highly appreciated! Thanks!
