I discuss how to make the most of Wrath and Calm, how to manage the risks that come with switching between stances, and some of the things to keep in mind when building your deck throughout a run. Whether you’re playing The Watcher for the first time or looking for some ideas to improve your runs, I hope you find it useful!</p>
