Here's what to do:
Get in fights, Send Bloody Teeth home to cover casualties, Bring Bloody Teeth back
I am being glib, but only a little bit!
I played a variety of decks through the swiss stage of the event. This is the deck I played for all of my elimination rounds.
This deck is a very aggressive attrition deck. You just want to get into long fights (often that you force) and grind your opponent down with your main attrition tool being Bloody Teeth and lots of actions to bring him back into the fight. The deck has a TON of redundancy in terms of bringing Bloody Teeth back into the fight.
This deck has a very tight draw structure. It can shoot well even on low stud. This deck has a lot of cards that can force the action with: Kidnappin', Curse of Failure, Nathaniel Tuwikaa and Hunter Protections
Hunter Protections and Fire of Nanahbozho is a great combo!
This deck also plays really heavy on the cheating resolution.
This deck is very poor and suffers a lot from the -1 Ghost Rock on Doc Holliday. Bloody Teeth and Lydia Bear-Hands are really expensive together in a starting gang. If you lose lowball, you only have 2 Ghost Rock on turn 1. Because of this, the deck's economy is really skewed towards deeds that cost 2. Despite how expensive starting Bloody Teeth and Lydia Bear-Hands is, I still think it is necessary to have a backup plan for if something goes wrong and you lose Bloody Teeth
I often considered moving cards around to get Fire-Dancer in. Fire-DancerFire Dancer is on-value, Has more than 1 skill for Doc Holliday, and is really good when you get the Fire of Nanahbozho going.
Sifting Squirrel and Mazatl are both reasonable for the starting gang. Dealer's choice on that one.
The Carter's Bounties was a last minute change to the deck. It is a nice 2 cost deed and it's effect is really exactly what the deck wants. You could easily trim it for an on-value deed to tighten the draw structure up.
Love to hear what y'all think and it was a blast playing in the event!

Nicely done. I played something almost exactly the same as this a while ago (I still have the physical deck assembled). It's really fun to play and can be quite hard to deal with Bloody Teeth, he's a real punching bag.
