deck strategy:
   
  sleeper agent sure is one of the more intriguing creatures to build a deck with. i like the card name and art, and the mechanic of the card is just about as surprising for your opponent as it is challenging for you, since you need to protect yourself from this hidden spy not to come in thru your back door and stab you. You never know whose side he will be eventually on.

the idea of the deck is to get out a sleeper agent in combination with wall of souls early, then empty your hand soon to put in effect cursed scroll and maybe the road block of an ensnaring bridge. supporting this strategy is bottomless pit, which along with megrim and duress is the other way to damage your opponent. the deck is pretty versatile and a lot fun to play, because it's sort of an out-of-the-way deck with cool mechanisms to hinge out your opponent. without any recent cards from the legacy and destiny expansions, i would like to keep this deck after rath cycle will drop out of t ii anyway as an extended and/or fun deck.
