Law Dogs DMH - NTNR
Otomo 205
With NTNR added. This deck got a lot more powerful since the new saddlebag. Deed choices are really because I'm trying to test whether Rafi's government ability is actually useful. Considering putting a B&B Attorneys back in should town council not work out.

Just to extrapolate a bit on my first comment, which came out harsher than I intended it to be, you're packing 16 off-value cards in your deck. Considering 4 starters in a 54 card deck, that means a full 32% of your deck is off-value. That, to me, is a loose draw structure and you're just begging to turn up bad hands at the worst times. My recommendation would be to potentially shore that up by either devolving more into your 3 core DMH values (A/8/J) or potentially to pour your off-value resources into a 4th fallback value. In this particular case, I might recommend 10's. You've got Clyde Owen, Unprepared, and Carter's Bounties in that slot. In addition to the TMA you're already running. You've got Union Casino too which has a mediocre ability for this deck, but its a solid producer. |

Thanks, yeah I really just wanted to try out as many new cards as I could as the set came out to see how they'd function, but to tighten it up -- yes, I think 10s will be the fallback value for me. Which I can cut the government deeds for 10s, probably Rafi and a couple other cards as well. The other option would be 3s, maybe add in Ramiro Mendoza into the deck.I'll have to think on that. I think the deeds at 10s and Unprepared might be best card wise as you mentioned. |
My initial impression is that this would be routinely womped by a deck packing a tighter draw structure. My 3-value Full House deck would routinely out-pull this deck, has more and better shootout actions, and you don't have any real meaningful Cheatin' punishment that you don't telegraph on the board.
Also, I'm dubious of the value of adding in Government deedjust for Rafi, especially if you're not starting him. There's so few of them in the game that I can practically guarantee you it's not worth it unless they are on-value. Which, in this case, they aren't.
Don't get me wrong, Rafi is my favorite card from the set from a flavor perspective, but he's going to need more card support to really become relevant.
