What? Just get literally any horrors and win.

Some blights will also do. Grab any health upgrades you see. You can also go magic route with Virulent Zombie, Soul Sapper, Burial Urn...

Here, for example, my last win with them, and it was very mediocre bonuses...

Ruler in Red is an easy victory if you take advantage of the HP = Damage.

Virulent Zombie gains HP with every magic damage dealt. So if you have a few magic damage dealers, like the Nether Warden (deals magic damage equal to HP at combat start), the zombie can easily hit nearly 1000 health before the first turn actually begins.

My current run has two max level Nether Wardens, with an Energy Echoer copying their activation. I have a spell that has Combat Start abilities activate a second time at the end of the first turn. So I blow up the board before the battle really begins.

I think the point is that Ruler has a few very strong builds, but relatively few chances to opt in along the way, y'know? Any horror doesn't really work - it's mostly about trying to get carried by Nether Seers until you can scrounge up some sort of build. I will suggest that worst case you try warriors and/or shields with a Piecemaker, which is just so generally strong for any non-cycling strategy that you can probably make it work till you can rock a full board of echoer/everseer combos.
