This is my current Lion Honor deck. I am doing pretty well. I win most often to honor but Province wins still happen a lot. 60/40 in my opinion. I won 3 games last night against someone and 1 was honor, 1 was Province, and 1 was dishonor.

Any questions or comments hit me up.

I will try to get around to writing a more lengthy report later.

Lost to it so its pretty good.

Phoenix splash? Interesting. Can't say that I saw that coming.

Not really that surprising, Kimono being 1 influence just screams Lion.

How did the Display of power work out for you?

For a while it was a toss up between Know and Display. I think Know is potentially more powerful with bigger hits but is much harder to set up. So Display lets me free up my characters from not HAVING to defend. Which is very important and makes my board more flexible where Know I have to set up perfectly. This just makes Display more flexible and therefore used more. It also lets me not have to worry about defending pol fights as much.

It also allows me to not defend while I have spirit caller and Toturi on the field. I lose 1 honor for not defending but I Display for Fire which end up being a net-neutral in honor, but honors Toturi for the mil crack back for Air, sitting at 21 honor, and Call up an honored general for 15 mil before the stronghold bows to 17. 21 honor goes to 25 after the fight and would be 27 from when Toturi and General both die that turn but I already took their box so I don't get that far.

Seems good.

I can't just can't see a world where I would play less than 3 Ready For Battles. That would be a world gone topsy-turvy. I love that card.

Because in actuality there isn't that much bow.

I think the inclusion of Kimono/Court Games/Charge(with self honoring guys) makes Honor Lion a much bigger threat than it was previously. You can hit your thresholds much easier. Still tough to play with less cards than an opponent though.

No Court Games in Lion Honor?

You crazy Croy :P.

I really want to use court games for it. But I have to be participating in pol fights. And pol fights are hard for me. So I'd rather use display for pol fight.

Besides kimonos fill the slot of court games for me. It's good and may find its way back in though

I've never played with Sashimono, but I would suggest experimenting with a few games without it, to make those political fights you don't like something you can play with. I love it, but I am curious how Sashi works out. It just doesn't seem worth the fate IMO. I always want the fate for actions(3x For Greater Glory, as a hard mull just to be sure, for me all day plz.) or for spamming out guys.

Sashimino is a card that doesn't come up often but when it does its a blow out. I'd like it a lot more if it cost 1f or if it gave any stats. It's actually on the chopping block. I think swapping them for 2 court games is a strong move though.

Honestly I've used sashimono more as a Lion, *** "the mountain does not fall"

If Travis' prediction is true and Dragon is the go to splash out of the core set, 2 cost attachments are significantly worse as well.

I think its gonna be pretty scary when they get another kind of self honoring guy or a courtier that gives hands out Honorable or just +1 honor. They'll be able to have a 5-card turn or maybe even 2 and still threaten honoring out as they smash your teeth in. Easy Switch deck.
