Well I'm face of a dilemma. I would to bluid a Hugo deck, and with his symbols (All/Earth/Death), a LOT of support could be decked. All with Ivy & Algol support to draw more, Earth/Death with crazyness Rashotep/Ragnar stuff, Death with attacks of madness (who's call Nightmare ?) I'm lost behind my cards. One hundred cards were on my table and I couldn't see an goal on this deck.

I have an idea about a couple of earth/death but I'll be lacking of all support to drawing faster and easly, and in competition we need to be fast and efficient. I am thinking of the kill condition and I'll see :

- Sardine : Big throw but very expensive diff & cost

- Tiger Fury : Big one with good average of damage but easy to block

- High plasma beam : Ah ! auto-include but only an earth symbol, how chain with big Midnight ?

- Reverse flayer : well combo to chain with High plasma beam, and rare card could be chained 'cause of the small HS of the character.

With this interrogation, I think I must run earth attacks and earth/Death foundations :

- Stand off could be a great solution, create dilemma for your opponent. Run only Earth

- Altered Mind and Body : to be virtually imbeatable (all/earth), couple with Battle prowess , it's madness

- Blinding Rage : Only Olcadan's protection, good CC (only Earth)

- Brooding : "free" dmg bonus (earth/death)

- Criminal Past : well top-deck into Hugo

- Dancing Battle Kabuki: Draw ? Too expensive now I think...

- Distractible : anti-reduction only earth

- Eternal Rule : too expensive but great ability, too hard in competition, no ?

- Holding Ground : great protection but I could be too much. (only earth)

- Hulking Brute : Draw (tri symbol)

- Huge Wrestling Army : small, but draw (tri symbol)

- Jealously-Guarded Secret : anti saiku-ryu & Bitter... Well hesitate a lot too (earth/death)

- Memories of a Nightmare : I think this card it's really strong with the lot of control cards we could find now, but really need ?

- Program Malfunction : Main-deck

- Revenant's Calling : really good one

- Will for the Fight : anti-discard

Make choice must be hard but if you have some suggestions to run a bluid, it could be intructive. Run only on Earth or integrate some Death or splash with some all ? In the actual environement, how many turn could be stay alive with 40 vits ?

Thanks for reading this !

I have made a hugo like this before, with sardine special. Problem with hugo is he is you can't really play more than a few non-foundations cause with only a 4 card hand you will be getting caught not being able to use your ability or foundations. Also to be honest 40vit isn't all that big a deal. My buddies Remy deck was able to consistently kill that 40 vitality by turn 3. If your going to make a death/earth deck I would use rashotep/ragnar/seth. Believe it or not but the promo seth might not be all that bad since he can commit his olcadans to do speed boost or damage redux.
