Loupmoon combos and turn-by-turn play lines
The core Loupmoon combo: Rest EBP01-085 Maraith to force night, then deploy Loupmoon to kill the opponent's best ◇6-or-less threat for free. The two-strike body then closes games faster than any other Common in the colour.

Sequencing
Resolve the enabler first, then Loupmoon. Triggers in this game check their condition at the moment they resolve, so a condition established afterwards does nothing.
Turn structure to plan around
Each turn runs Stand Up, Draw, Soul, Main and End. Assignments and deploys happen in the Main phase, so plan the assignment you want a full turn ahead.
Curve
On the play, aim to have ◇2 and ◇3 bodies down before the EBP01-087 turn so you are never trading tempo for the engine.
Mulligan rules of thumb
Keep any opening hand with two lands of the curve plus a route to Loupmoon. Ship hands that are all ◇5 or higher — this format punishes slow starts.
Common misplay
The most common error with Loupmoon is committing it into open removal. Bait the answer with a cheaper threat first when the matchup shows removal.
