before i start olaf dont take this wrong it is not a slam on you but on the big
bully type decks.........

i did make this deck and played it and it does win but to tell you the truth on
a fun factor of this deck sucks the big one. i see this game as a more then a
win at all cost game. it should be fun and different very game. I think this
kinda of deck has no real imagination or thought put in to it. now if you took
this deck and changed out the objectives i would say that if would be better. or
at least it might be a little more fun...

on a side note about GenCon i was wondering if we can make the SRCard tournament
ban the change the challenge objectives, or every use the same objectives. you
know you supply the deck we supply the objective stack kinda of thing....lets
make it for fun not just to win.....

Try this : take all single 50 or so objectives and before every game draw
6 objectives. This way, no one, even you, will know what it is. My
group play it this way and I assure you that this brings a lot of
difference between games.

These decks have an almost negative fun factor - not only does the
player not enjoy it, but all opponents and onlookers donīt either. These
decks are played for the sole purpose of winning - some people obviously
donīt want a game to be fun. Even if their prize consists of nothing but
the 50th UW Promo...
Btw, Olaf can take a lot of slamming - have at īim, guys! ;o)
