Liar 2.0
by Joel Bray
The basic premise of this deck is to use Keevan (Liar!) as a draw engine, thus saving counters during the early/mid-game. The "Liar 1.0" build *did* have Precise Attack x3, however I decided *not* to use a ship-destruction/stranding pile. I instead made a few switch-outs to emphasize solving.

Draw Deck Strategy
Play Keevan as soon as possible, either by initially drawing him, or using Crom to fetch, but do not sacrifice counters for standard drawing just to get them. Generally, you should have a ship and an average of 8-11 personnel in play by turn 4. Due to Gomtuu-weakness, this deck should be attempting planet missions first. Dikut'ukan is your ace.
Dilemma Pile Strategy
The core dilemma pile was adopted from Johannes Klarhauser's 2013-04-06 Regional-winning deck. Slightly modified to deal with increased hand sizes due to Keevan draw engine and slight meta choices. No longer coupled with outright ship-destruction strategy. May use a different dilemma pile next time.
VS. Matchups
A valiant effort against Johnny Holeva's renowned Big Fat Borg deck (Keevan & Co. garnered a modified loss), while two 100-10 full wins against other decks. It's improving!
