I need to taste you, your second skin
Every breath you take belongs to me
Sell me your soul for a life in sin
Discipline, the state of mind you're in

Deck Name: Recruitment Exercise Retribution [by borrelstein]
Author: borrelstein
Description: Somewhat inspired by an old Izaak Havelaar black hand deck that I watched in action in my early VTES days.

This version is more combat oriented though, using the new Haqim's law:Retribution for a little extra bleeding power and card cycling.

It is quite fun transforming the deck during the game from a slow bloat deck into a consistent stealth bleeder late game.

Pool gain is quite amazing if there are only casual blockers. In the finals my prey burned Karif, but with villeins and Reunion Kamut I still had him back eventually, plus the 7 and 9 cap seraphs all tooled up with Tattoo Signals.

Sehr coole Fotos.

Edit: Geil auch, dass Nossies dann ins Finale kommen, wenn sie mit Earth Meld spielen. Ist aber auch ein cooles Deck. Endlich sind die Sabotages gefährlicher.
