Funtime and his Pal Mr Odett, Origins 2nd place.

This is what I piloted to 2nd place at the Origins Qualifer for GenCon.

Note: Yes, there are six starters selected. I chose between Pagliaccio and Ambrose, based on what my opponent's home was. For something that Could be slide, I went with Pags, to ensure 8 influence at the end of turn one. Against everything else, It was Ambrose, giving me 16 2's in deck, little off value, and plenty of card cycling.

Games:

Round 1: Banditslide. I saw 2 dudes in 4 turns, and it was over quickly. He just outpaced me when the only dude I could drop was Ivor, and I couldn't cover enough deeds fast enough. 0-1

Round 2: Souix Blockade. A tense match, that was decided by shooting. Soul Cage Recursion to cover my losses, and eventually the final shootout just ended with me having the ability to consistently flop 4Oak or better.

1-1

Round 3: Spirit Fortress. I couldn't draw better than FH in a shootout against the deck, so I swapped strategies, and full on blitzed getting people and deeds into play for the win at time. At time, I had 21 influence, and 8 control points, squatting on most of the board. 2-1

Round 4: Conditions A tense game that went back and forth, but eventually, he couldn't stop cheating in shootouts, and Bottom Dealin' left him a 2 pair to a legal 5Oak, and that was that.

Round 5: Conditions (different) I knew going into this match that I had secured at least a tie for second place. I was tired, and distracted. I lost the match because of my poor play from being distracted, and my opponent didn't make mistakes.

IN the end, it was over on Day 3 because of it, and I had to shoot with him, and I didn't have a cheatin' action to save me.

Notes: This deck is a blast. I love it. I wish that I could pilot it at GenCon. But that's NOT going to happen. 108 Slide will beat you 99 times out of 100. Morgan Slide is a little easier to deal with, because the very act of using their home's ability leaves them vulnerable, so they slow down (Or don't, and lose people)

I've now top 4'd at a Sheriff, and 2nd at Origins with the deck, and While I want to play it at GenCon, I just can't recommend anyone do that.

But, by all means, have fun with your friends, and at other tournaments / Sheriff / deputy type events.

There is a lot of synergy to the deck. Little bits and pieces of things that work together to make little nifty combos. If I had to list an MVP from the day at Origins, I would say

1.) Bottom Dealin' 2.) Nightmare at Noon 3.) Essence of Armitage
