Well, discard mixed with Courtesan. I just made this deck up in my head (I have the cards though) before maintenance popped up, so I couldn’t test it yet.

[card]Marlok the Repentant[/card]
[card]Councilor Ishaia[/card]
[card]Salem[/card]

[3] [card]Tadaa! You're a bunny![/card]
[3] [card]Treacherous[/card]
[3] [card]Look Away[/card]
[3] [card]Disguise[/card]
[3] [card]Panic[/card]
[3] [card]Theft[/card]
[1] [card]Anathematize[/card]
[1] [card]Watcher[/card]

NOTES:
~I could probably put in more defense ([card]Manipulation[/card], [card]Fallback[/card]) but I dunno what to take out besides [card]Look Away[/card], which is nice as well.

~[card]Overwhelming Victory[/card]: should it go in?

~[card]Disguise[/card] is there to chain into [card]Treacherous[/card], but I think it can be replaced with something else...but I DO like the combo. Everything counts, right?

~[card]The Prestige[/card] is another card I'd like to get, but sadly it's, what...500k? Yeah.

~I'm also not high level enough to get [card]Mental Siphon[/card]. But believe me, when I am, it's going in.

QUESTION: I just thought this up and was wondering; can a Legendary character use any card? As in, can [card]Councilor Ishaia[/card] use [card]Theft[/card]?

Ish can't use theft. She's a mage, while Theft is for Marauders. Come to think of it, you have quite a lot riding on Salem. Panic and Theft become dead cards if your opponent takes out Salem early.

Would it be possible to replace Ish with Shadow/Abom? Or Marlok with Shadow/Abom? That way, all your characters can throw Treacherous, 2 can throw Theft, and Salem only has to survive long enough to throw the Panics.

Also based on your cards, aside from Salem with Panic, you can't defend and discard on the same turn.

Manipulation might be a good choice because it's permanent. Overwhelming Victory will only buff the defense of Ish since she's the only Kotoba.

You might want to run 3 Ice Barrier if you stick with 2 mages.

Well when I ran my all Courts Deck, I had [card]Ice Barrier[/card] and [card]Lightning Bolts[/card] LV3, and Ishaia was the only one that could use them and it turned out great. Granted it was a very defensive deck and it drove people nuts, but it still won a lot despite Ishaia being the only Mage.

Yeah, I decided on no to [card]Overwhelming Victory[/card]. I just might add in [card]Ice Barrier[/card] so Ishaia can have some extra fun with that one, plus add extra defense to everyone else. That way [card]Salem[/card] can still use [card]Tadaa! You're a bunny![/card] and [card]Look Away[/card]/[card]Manipulation[/card] (should I add that in) to defend himself.

The thing it this; yes, I want this to have defense but I don't want it to be overly defensive. I want the discard to be fast and furious and I don't know it this deck is doing that enough. I was thinking of adding in [card]It is time[/card] because it combos with [card]Marlok the Repentant[/card] so well, maybe just one or two of them. Plus, if the games goes past turn 5, well...you don't even need it anymore past that.

Also; thoughts on [card]Cloning[/card], LV2 anyone? Would it be useful at all?

EDIT: It seems to me that yeah, [card]Abyssien[/card] and [card]Kriss[/card] would probably be better fits in this deck. But I really don't wanna give up Ishaia. Which would be better? I'm betting [card]Kriss[/card], but I could be wrong. [card]Abyssien[/card] DOES bring back a card from my discard pile to my hand, which is always handy. And that could work well with [card]It is time[/card].

STRAIGHT DISCARD
[card]Abyssien[/card]
[card]Salem[/card]
[card]Kriss[/card]

[3] [card]Tadaa! You're a bunny![/card]
[3] [card]Treacherous[/card]
[3] [card]Look Away[/card]
[3] [card]Cloning[/card]
[3] [card]Panic[/card]
[3] [card]Theft[/card]
[2] [card]Fallback[/card]

[card]The Prestige[/card] and [card]Mental Siphon[/card] are on the wish list for this deck.

I agree, Abyssien + It is Time done in a... timely manner will get you to recycle cards in a pinch. It will also work for Marlok. But that would mean bumping off Ishaia.

One thing good about Kriss is he's an extra marauder that can throw the Theft. Plus, if you have crystals to spend, get the AOE heals.

Cloning will work similarly as It's Time + Abyssien, but it will be less versatile as it only does one thing, while It's Time can be different things depending on which character you play it on.

I ran into a full-blown discarder earlier with Abyssien, Salem, and Kriss. I was using an okay pack deck with Bloodsword, Faceless, and Dark. It discarded well, but because I was not chaining and was not discarding, I almost won. I didn't win because Adventure didn't work on the Bestial, so his last character survived. So I think, even with the 9 discarders cards, A fair amount of delay is necessary especially against beatdown.

I vote putting in manipulation with ice barrier if you are keeping the 2 court mages.

Discards can only win turn 4+, the pack has really crapped spirit so it can't mill you with treach.
