Some of you may remember one of my pet projects: the abuse of starter Ken's draw ability with Dark Force's acceleration to build circles around the opponent, and then taking them down. The new set has made it even easier...


:::.Ken.:::

6/26 All/Order/Void

E Discard 1 momentum: If this attack deals damage, each player draws X cards. X equals the damage dealt.

E Commit 1 foundation: Each player chooses 1 of their opponent's momentum which is discarded.

Average Control: 4.46

And so here's the caper: block an attack, Reversal with Dark Force. Enhance with Ken, and make sure the Dark Force goes through for as much as possible without actually pumping it (read: 8). Begin your turn. Form with Lesser, play Monster Lariat. Enhance with Ken, and push it through with Real Challenge's speed pump. Begin Anew if necessary at this time. Then proceed to play out the entire deck of foundations and add them to your staging area. At that point in time, you're free to play out Neo Raging Storm and take them to town.

Just a rought draft for now...
