Gild Tesoro

Strategic Overview

Gild Tesoro (OP06-071) is the ultimate resource recovery engine for Purple FILM-based decks, specifically those led by Uta. His [On Play] effect allows you to return a DON!! to pull up to two FILM characters (cost 4 or less) from your trash back to your hand. This essentially provides a +1 in hand advantage and ensures your late-game board remains fueled with high-value pieces.

Strategically, Tesoro is used to recur 2000 counters like Bartolomeo or searchers like Nami that have already been played or discarded. In a deck that often burns through resources to maintain aggressive pressure, Tesoro provides the mid-to-late game sustainability needed to out-grind control decks. His 6000 power body is also a respectable threat that demands removal once his ability has been utilized.

Key Strategic Synergies

• Uta (OP06-001): The primary Leader. Tesoro provides the FILM ammunition Uta needs to consistently trigger her power-reduction and ramping effects.
• Nami (OP02-036): Recruiting Nami from the trash allows for a secondary search phase, perfecting your hand for the final turn.
• Douglas Bullet (OP06-010): While he costs more than 4, Tesoro ensures the lower-cost blockers protecting Bullet can be recycled if cleared.
