[Media/Order] Nobles of Venizia

[Brontobeuf]

Hey,

Here is one of the many different variations (of my gold toolbox) I'm playing right now with good results (which is good since the AH).

It's quite hard to play, let's face it. You have many choices to make, only a few counters and no recurtions of your own cards. Each choice is important.


5 Political Patronage
5 By Order of the King
5 Forced Inheritance

3 Tactical Upheaval
5 Familly Heirloom
3 Sudden Exhaustion
5 Preemptive Strikes
2 Condottiero Tactics

1 Teodor Viscardi
1 Dante Moro
1 Caterina Sforza
1 Skilled Minstrel (no crash so far, woot ^^)
1 Carlo Grimaldi
1 Frederico Auditore
1 Pantasilea Baglioni
1 Lorenzo de' Medici (can be replaced by Il Carnefice if you prefer)
2 Cesare Borgia
1 Lucrezia Borgia

3 Borgia Tower
3 Venezia, San Polo District


Playbook:

- The Gold Toolbox
You have 5 Heirlooms that will allow you to pick up solutions to whatever you have to deal with. Don't forget to pick Frederico as he can frequently kill 2 or 3 guys with Official/Threat/Imblocable before leaving the field. Pantalisela is just as awesome to deal against Millitants.

- The Noble Threatbox
You have 5 By Order of The King to pick up threats to play in your HQ. Some of them synergize together, some are just strong. Don't forget to pick Teodor if you are low on ressources at start. Lucrezia is awesome against Courtesans, Crime, Scholar dudes etc. Cesare is here to be incounterable and fast to intervene.

That's it. as you can see, it creates a lot of choice-making situations and again, with this kind of deck, you will make a lot of mistakes before being satisfied with the deck. Be sure to know what you will pick *BEFORE* resolving one of the tutors.

I hope you will like it.

I know what you mean with ... Since the AH is up.
One of the few decks that withstand the big shift is my bounce deck. And I play again one of my Big Agents decks, which I hadn't played since I first started playing ACR. I'm also now still looking for a new deck for the current meta.
I will check your deck. I like the whole concept of making a deck with a lot of different cards and then pick out what you need.

I'm posting to help draw attention to this deck list. This deserves more attention then it's received.

Bron - thanks for sharing the list. I've found the deck to be extremely smooth, successful, and fun to play. It's got a huge tool box.

One question, how do you handle sites with the current list? It should be easy enough to add a few tutorable answers, but I'm struggling to find answers with what's currently listed. Am I'm missing something?

Thanks for the bump. I'm having a lot of fun playing it. :] I remove the Minstrel cause I got two crashes in a row and it forces me to restart my ipad a few times before I can play again...

There are 3 Venezia to deal with sites. Usually, it's enough. You can tweak in whatever you think may be a good idea to deal with sites.

This looks very cool, and definitely great for facing such a variety of strength out there. Will test it a bit and come back Right now though I'm obsessed with tweaking the copy deck, who would make an interesting match up with this, haha - a rush to your cards
