EARTH is the main symbol to play, very small splash of GOOD. Play throws and pump early as possible without leaving yourself open. Siegfried's almost free damage pump is great in most matchups. Sideboard helps against those kind of matchups, usually against King. Don't over extend yourself unless it's the kill turn. This is not a 30- 40 damage throw deck, it's meant to apply pressure with as little committing as possible and do the super pumping in the kill turn. Average damage without comitting a thing is 7 to 12 damage per throw.

One of the cooler complex combos is ( Cobra Clutch, Cobra Twist, put it face up with Atoning for the Past, Flinging Half Nelson, play from the Mouse to get Cobra Twist back into hand, then play it again. The result is usually opponent has 2 less cards next turn, and took a lot of damage. Relatively easy checks to do it, 5,5,6, 6 ( the best card to commit is Regretfull Existance, I do it all the time) Siegfried's enhance should be played at all times. The lose 2 F should only be used as finisher. Tried this build with 18 attacks, failed far too often. Knocked it down to 15.

I have plenty of turns where I play a Throw, pump it enough to provoke a block (usually happens) and continue with foundation building.

1 King

4 Paid to Protect (don't actually own them, but would like to)

How has King of the Ring worked out for you? 4 difficulty is a hard sell (especially on your first turn), though the effect is pretty good.

Everything else is just about good, though. Good call on the Atoning for the Past + throw combo abuse.

That is why there are only 3 in there. It's just too good to pass up with Cobra Twist. There is no shortage of momentum in here. The deck has done extremely well. I am thinking of adding in the Hilde Weapon card to add some card draw. I will have to test that out. Discard can hurt.

Have you considered running hungry for battle? minus milling yourself it can be a free 2 damage to every attack you play.
