As you can see on curve of this deck there are a lot of late game cards (nine 7+magicka cost cards). It is a the mark of all control decks. This deck costs 7500 crystals without cards from “The Fall of the Brotherhood” story. The concept of this deck as a control archetype is doing everything to slow opponents play in early and mid game and destroy him in strong late game. You will play creatures with Guard like Hive Defender and Prophecy like Cloudrest Illusionist or creatures with two this keywords like Fighters Guild Recruit. Also there are some Prophecy Actions with healing effect like [/card]Healing Potion[/card] or [/card]Ransack[/card]. There are 14 Prophecy cards and 10 cards with Guard in this deck. Also you will destroy opponent’s creatures by Actions (Crushing Blow or Piercing Javelin) and AOE (Dawn’s Wrath). You can combine Cloudrest Illusionist + Execute to destroy enemy creatures.

There are also a lot of creatures with keyword Lethal there like Sanctuary Pet. All of Lethal creatures will give you a Completed Contract if you combine them with Astrid. The contracts will give you an extra magicka for one turn so you can play your late game creatures much earlier.

But the main concept of this deck is to get a lot of value from Chanter of Akatosh. If you play an Action during the presence of this card on the board, you will summon a creature that costs the same magicka as the current Action. For example if you play [/card]Ransack[/card] you will summon [/card]Senche-Tiger[/card]. This unique bonus effect will be very powerful especially if you play an action after getting it from Prophecy.

This Control Monk deck is good against other control decks because of chance to play late game cards like Odahviing or Mantikora much earlier when you realize your Completed Contract. Also you can steal opponents keywords by Ahnassi and can steal opponent’s creature after playing your Miraak, Dragonborn. Also you can get a lot of value on the board after playing Chanter of Akatosh.

This deck is also can be good against aggressive decks because of a lot of creatures with Guard and Prophecy, point removals, AOE and some heal.

This Control Monk can be good enough against midrange decks. You can even play more tempo game than a lot of midrange decks and have a lot of value from Chanter of Akatosh in mid game.

So it is very interesting to play this deck and it has a good win rate.
