So at the moment, I’m at a bit of a crossroads with the Basara burn deck, I’ve decided to shift my focus on the new Alex. I’m surprised no one has mentioned that he has a built in Scourge of Zeus. After looking over the symbols, I decided on water as it gives him the most card draw in block 3, as well as some decent 3 check throws. Anyway, like the Basara deck, this is mostly on paper, and I think it would be cool if the community got together to try to make this concept work.

Characters: 1

Alex****

Foundations: 38

Free Will x4

A Means of Self Defense x4

The Bigger They Are.. x4

Aquakinesis x4

Dedication x4

Mind Over Matter x4

Familial Loyalty x4

Chester’s Backing x3

Shooting Capoera x3

Program Malfunction x4

So the foundation base is pretty simple. TBTA, Aqua, and Familial are for card draw. Free Will is a little recursion, and Self Defense is awesome mutual destruction. Dedication allows me to block even with the face downs. MOM is amazing for agro. A speed boost along with an even bigger boost if they block? The rest is just good water stuff. In fact, it was harder to think of what NOT to put in. Water has a lot of good stuff right now.

Actions: 8

Kung-Fu Training

Rejection x4

Self explanatory

Attacks: 16

Chop x4

Boomerang Raid x4

Wingless Aeroplane x4

Rera Kishi Matek x4

Attack lineup is for setup then spam. Just need to get two attacks through, and then next turn explode on them. Wingless and Rera are both 3 check throws that allow you to push damage through, and also become pretty decent on the kill turn. Chop is amazing with Alex. During the Scourge turn, along with the free E, Chop becomes a 2 high for 7 damage! Off a 3 diff! Boomerang also can reach very high levels due to its effect. I know Feline Spike isn’t in, and it was on purpose. Spike is a one shot kill kind of card. I wanted this deck to be a killer series of attacks. Plus, this deck doesn’t really lend itself to generate momentum due to the nature of face down cards.

Assets: 7

Owl Face x4

Times Sqaure x3

Well, its owl face. Now Times Square is for the Alex F. On the Scourge turn, play 2 attacks, and then blow this up. Now for the rest of your turn, your attacks are coming at -2 diff, +2 dmg, and you have a clear card pool.

Total: 70

So overall, the idea is to setup turn 1. Draw, push 2 attacks through and build some more turn 2. Finally on turn 3, Go into Scourge mode, throw out another 2 attacks, then use Times Square to clear the pool and make your attacks cheaper and then spam to kill. Boomerang comes in at 15dmg, Chops and Wingless come at 7, and Rera comes at 6. All this, while drawing cards to keep the momentum going. The total is a little higher, but I believe with the card draw, he’ll go through his deck quick enough.

I'd suggest Quest for Vengance, so you can go Wingless, then Chop at 5 speed 7 damage on the Scourge turn!

I'd suggest adding in Fighting For Information so you can use the attacks from the discard after they've dealt damage and you've discarded them as face downs.

I'd suggest using the F commit on Times Square on your Scourge turn rather then the F destroy, unless it's a choice.

Because of the wording on ::Alex:: you get a +1 damage bonus to your attacks everytime a face down card is discarded for the rest of the turn (unless the ruling was changed). So, using the F commit on Times Square after a Scourge turn, you actually get +2 damage to all attacks for the rest of the turn from it.
