Imo its best to skip your turn if you dont know what is next in the deck, because you might get molly whopped by karzoug. I run with a ton of augury and scrys because those spells are bonkers good and spyglasses for the non magical lame o's.
The annoying part for me was I picked all the backstab stuff for merisiel only to be surprised that it was total trash here, great.
Hello,
There might be a bug with the emerald codex and banish cards. I got the new divine spell that you bury to add 1d6 blessings back to the blessing deck, from the emerald codex. After i won the scenario, i got to add that card to my deck even though it should have been banished when i casted it
