The deck seems ok if you get lucky but for my tastes doesnt really work out because if a deck with a strong offense or a strong defense plays you, you will have a hard time beating either. But I also think that your deck is also one of those that if you get a bad draw you can get screwed over pretty fast. imo put some more focus in picking your offense and defense and dont make it so spread out. Thats my  :2cents:

You can't play royal parade, can you? Is widow royalty?

I'd add in peace treaty instead.

I'd say add something better than royal parade though. Since you can only play it on one guy. I'd add in peace treaty, like I said, even still.

Hadn't thought of Peace Treaty I thought it said royalty  :P
Also I've had my share of bad draws and depending upon who I'm playing I can usually win as long as I have 1 character of any kind and enhancements I'm good. Also My dad (Em Jay Bee) plays a wicked hero-lite (Saul/Paul) deck so I know how to play against heroless and as far as offense heavy decks go I'm from MN  ;D

You list that you have 8 evil enhancements but only have 6, I was just wondering what the last 2 were. What they are may change the comments I was going to make.
