A Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy |
Introduction |
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/669886966-
Decided to play a deck that revolved around getting Varon-T and the Stone of Gol in play with Bred for Battle for mass casualties. I woke up late and scooped up the kill pile I played a few weeks ago- I think a more standard attrition pile would have worked better, at least in the games I lost.

Round 1 | | Jon Carter | FL (-65)View opponent's ReportView original Report |
Jon was playing KCA with Reflections/WNOHGB, and though I broke the first one I hit, Tolian had to stop people and I couldn't solve. Then he landed the 2nd. At the end he had exactly 6 personnel in play to my ~18 or so. So my kills were effective but he used ETU 4-5 times and was able to re-crew relatively quick with 2-1-and 0 cost people and autosolved his final, buried mission. After the game I pulled up the decklist and realized WNOHGB was just a tough dilemma to beat with this deck. |
After a rough dilemma start, nate's murder never really showed up and I was able to grind through just enough |

Round 2 | | Michael Van Breemen | FL (-60)View opponent's ReportView original Report |
And then played Mike who was also running Reflections/WNOHGB! I forgot to use his Nimbus twice, which probably would have given me a chance. I needed to collapse the wormhole to stop his HQ text from going off, and avoid engagements the rest of the game. He Lustful'd Dark Dissension which made me give him draw/spend 2 and he pulled Reflections- then he autosolved for 65 points the next turn and won. |
Nathan was playing Terok Nor and he went on a trip, one of only two times that I was able to pull the combo off. Meanwhile, it takes me five attempts and lots of dead bodies before I solve Nimbus. He solved Cardassia so my Standard Punishments were doing any good but it also affected him as well so he couldn't cheat through a dilemma. I managed to get the full win because I prevented him from solving a space mission and Archer got an extra 5 points, giving me the bonus that I needed for the full win. |

Round 3 | | Sebastian Kirstein | FW (+100) |
Sebastian was playing Tain without WNOHGB (or I just never saw it), so I was in a lot better position! My first play of the game was topdecking In Dev with Kira for 6 extra counters! Then Sebastian couldn't find Nec Ex as I walked through an easy Cardassia Prime knowing he wouldn't throw many dilemmas. He was able to launch the Phoenix, but Baran finally made an appearance and pulled my artifacts- ultimately selling them to the Kressarians for the win. |

Closing Thoughts |
Kind of a fun deck, just had some bad matchups- would play again. Other thoughts- Reflections seems busted now that it's easier and more effective to play AU, Interstellar Exigence is busted in multi-HQ. |
