Watch this deck be worked on and tweaked for an entire year and then win next years national tournament. It'll happen, bet on it. ;)

Played against The Professor yesterday, and I found these issues:
- No (non-Red) site access. This held me off for a few rescues. This was brought up before and I shrugged it off. Should I add Ram's Horn? Dragon Raid? Recruiting Officer? I'm leaning toward the latter.
- Couldn't get a high enough volume of cards. I'll add Mustering for War, I suppose.
- I'm kind of stymied when there's nothing to rescue. I should change one of my souls to the Revealer, and maybe sneak the Hopper in there.
- Even with Warrior's Spear discarding a card from him every turn since turn 1, I never turned up a soul or got any awesome cards with it. :p

Ram's Horn is the way to go, but also add officer. Ram's Horn makes Nahari a beast.
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!

I'm getting more used to the deck, and I'm liking it. I just played a very strange game against Lamborghini_diablo in which I killed 4 of his Legions piecemeal in one turn, put them in my Tartaros, and released them one by one.

Yeah... of ALL the decks to use Legions against, you had Tartaros. -_-

Awesome game though.

Two things I would definitely add to this deck are Heldai and Falling Away (which I thought might be a mistake).
Use the Mad Bomber to rescue his Province.

You mentioned earlier that you had trouble getting your cards fast enough, That's why I play with 50 instead of 56. If you think about it if you have 8 LS's in your deck (this is assuming you play with hopper) then you're really playing with a 42 card deck in reality. Plus you draw 8 cards your first turn so you're left with 34 cards in your deck. I don't know, it could go either way, I just like getting stuff 2 turns quicker. In my opinion those two turns make all the difference in the world, but again that's just me. :dunno:

2 turns could easily be 2 Lost Souls, plus Sog/NJ and thats 4 redeemed right there.

Yet it's these exact decks that can get squashed by 63-70 card defense heavy beasts. So it depends on your goal.
As a national champion, I support ReyZen deck pouches.
