Rune's a overwhelmingly frustrating deck because of how often it can highroll into an instant win, Double Blaze destroyer on an Anne and Grea turn autowins a lot of games and isn't that uncommon to see, but the deck is really really frail against Aggro because while yes, they can draw half their deck by turn 5, that's all they really get to do until turn 5. It's the best non-aggro deck alongside Portal but unlike Portal it kneels hard to toe shifting Aggro meta as people put in tech cards and start building decks to deal with it.
It highrolls semi-consistently and it feels like bullshit when it does highroll, but it has a non-o chance of just dying on turn 4 against a lot of decks and their burst damage is concentrated on a turn 10 play with 0 ramp.
It's weaknesses are hard to percieve, you don't' see the topdeck stormy blast that doesn't clear Forte. You don't see the Dshift rotting in hand while they dig for spellboosts. It's a degenerate deck for gamblers but not uniquely so, I'd argue Portalcraft is much worse to deal with because there's nothing it outright folds to since it can play for Aggro, Midrange or the long game due to Orchis and the Mech pieces.
People hate Rune because they can't see past the curtains and only remember the disgusting highrolls. You should hate on Portal and Sword instead.
btw Anne and Grea is only broken because of Anne, All Grea does is zap something for 3 on Evo.
