About the Deck
foundations
. Foundations was the Shen Fiora deck, which was a very powerful deck, but tough to pilot - the idea was to have the patience to play the basics of the game with mastery. This list now bringing Shurima and Demacia has very similar properties, and we will dissect part by part of this wonderful deck.Why play Akshan Sivir?

Broad view of the Deck
specially the champions
. Currently, one of the best removals in the game is in this list: Concerted Strike, costing 5 mana, fast speed, and you can easily deal 10 damage to an enemy unit, therefore opening up space for a very dangerous horizontal attack.
Champions
Akshan

zero
, you get a Relic of Power, by 0 mana, you have 3 options. They are: +1 attack for ally units on board (100% of the cases this is the worst option); summoning a Sandstone Charger (which is "okay" when the deal is to rush your opponent without mercy;) (and the best of the options); Predict and Buy one. In a Midrange deck, having the luxury ofchoosing
which card to buy is extremely strong, so use it wisely. So you will get a new landmark and Akshan will level up. From now on, there's no issue if Akshan dies, everything you want with him is the landmark Warlord's Hoard Same story, 8 countdown landmark, but when this one gets to zero, the reward is magnificent, called Sentinel's Hoard. There arethree
options: Give vulnerable to every enemy and create in hand a 0 cost copy of the strongest ally that died; or give +2/+2 and spellshield globally to your champions; andthe best of the options
, buy 2 and your cards this round cost 1 less. It is very strong.Sivir

, allows her to survive on the board for a long time and she is able to slay a lot of enemy units on board with the help from Merciless Hunter granting an enemy vulnerable.

Lucky Find
, by zero mana, you grant a targeted ally a keyword, that is, it advances Akshan's landmark countdown and allows Sivir to share more keywords to allies during attacks.Spells and combat tricks

Favorable Matchups
Feel The Rush
Feel The Rush is a 12 cost spell. So the deck relies on AoE removals and big expensive spells. As the deck has a lot of robust low cost units, you can easily overwhelm this archetype, the stars of the match being Sivir and Vekauran Bruiser.Scouts
Although Scouts is not a slow deck, it doesn't have card draw, so any favorable trade can guarantee you victory in this matchup. Our valuable trades will be: Treasure Seeker; Akshan and Sivir along with vulnerables; Warlord's Palace because at free cost eventually it will give you card draw, and Concerted Strike, which is one of the most efficient removals and it will remove 6 cost units, leaving you always with mana advantage. These units are Cithria The Bold and Genevieve Elmheart.Unfavorable Matchups
Shurima Viego
It is a cheap list with a gigantic ceiling, having cheap units to hold out the early game, and freaky late game with Viego and Invasive Hydravine, besides having a good resource with Treasure Seeker and Glimpse Beyond.Caitlyn Ezreal
I am being sus when I talk about this list, as I am its daddy. It is a list rich with small units and little removals which are enough to deal with every threat from Sivir Akshan. Besides controlling the board, it is possible to put in big threats on board as the card created by Ferros Financier; Leveled Ezreal; Captain Farron and the famous Tri-beam Improbulator.Ad
