I see Niharia got a build going here during testing.

I just saw an AI kill itself by throwing Mirages into my field.

What's the intended trick for using Sun Blade productively?

[Septima Rhay]

On hit and active send 3|6 mirage to opponent.  idea is to kill opponent mirage to mill opponent top deck card.  with a group of mirage on board and mass CC (i.e. desert/RoF) batch mill can happen quicker.  'downside' to mirage is sending a damager to opponent and, when mirage is blocked, mirage will heal owner, which anti-synergizes with sunblade with a planned or optional 'offensive' win condition.  mill can be either the win condition or a tool of control in other win condition: damage or deck out. Edit: mill and deckout are same win condition, I just think of them as different intentional strategies - rushing towards deckout vs. (more slowly) outlasting.

Okay, got this working a bit, very luck-of-the-draw though:
