My first targets are Mark of the Wolf and Jeff's Gloves. They're both rares and so drive up the prices. They're both not very good [MotW clogs your card pool for maybe giving you 2 life and replacing itself at the end of the turn; Jeff's Gloves is too difficult and only does anything after you block and have spare foundations. Terry can probably make better use of his foundations to pass blocks than try to find new ones]. To replace the rare slot, I'd maybe go for Spinning Back Fist (retains the "blocks do fun stuff" theme from Jeff's, combos with Former Champion, helps survivability) or Yoga Adept (works well with Terry's ability to refill).

Attack-wise, I like that most of them are punches [interaction with American Made and Former Champion, yay] but I don't like that most of them are uncommon and therefore probably impossible to furnish without ordering from the Internet. The difficulties are also a little high. I'd cut Tetsu Zanko and maybe Dash Low outright, and maybe replace one of the others with Hayate. Fire Kick, however, is perfect for this kind of thing.

The foundations are good, but to get down to 60 you'd either have to drop some of them or drop the actions, and it'd be good to teach about the actions. Deceptive Acrobatics is definitely the best of the lot on actions [replaces itself, clears your attack, effortless difficulty, good CC]. I'm leaning toward Bereaved or Altered Mind and Body to cut, the deck has enough lifegain already, and an excess of lifegain risks making the game boring and pointless. I guess it depends on the other decks you make and how much recursion-type stuff they can do.

I was originally looking at building Terry off Air, but looking at how the flavor of the punches work in this deck, I'll most likely change my mind, thanks guys .

I think it's the rare I'm having most trouble with. I must admit, Mark Of The Wolf was the first thing I originally thought of, but you're right Waffle, it isn't very good, and we could do with something better. I can't help but think that Spinning Back Fist encourages the whole mass lifegain effects, but then, I guess someone has to do it. Power Drive and Fire Kick are definate in's, as they're both very good and both have Terry on them. It's a shame his Wild Wolf costume attacks are all a bit lame. American Made and possibly Fast Food Lover are good ones too. Return To Southtown is also rather good. I was also thinking Powerful Style, but we don't want the lifegain to go overboard...

why? UFS loves lifegain. teach newbies what it's like to atack for 10 dmg and then yer oponent heals for 15.

Hey, if there aren't any good rares for the deck, don't put any rares in the deck! Honestly, most rare attacks are fairly bad or combo-y [maybe one could make a new-rare Alex, using his excellent Boomerang Raid?], most rare actions/assets are just downright crappy, and rare foundations are very few in number. The good shiny cards are 90% of the time UR/promo... or so it has been lately. This last set is looking better on this front.

There's plenty of foily (un)commons floating around, fit some of those in and you can please the eyes as well as the deck and wallet .
