>>>Like what, one in a 20? The thing is, prior to underworld (and even with it) a
mage, rigger waht ever deck get pund by some one with enough brains to add a couple of
specials to there big-uns deck (riot, drive etc)<<<

I took 2 out of 3 games against a friend's Big Guy deck. He was using 4
Skwaaaarks, 4 Torgos (in the deck), 4 Gore tusks and 4 Stompers, along
with Rockers (to pay for it all). My Rigger deck beat him, and he was
using nothing but the so-called "cheese" Objectives.

Riggers, Mages and Shamen all have some powerful cards associated with
them.

What strategies are those of you complaining about Big Guy decks using
against them? Their weakness is speed. Attack their ¥, slow them down
with Challenges that work well against them, use Objectives geared
toward your own deck…

I haven't seen Big Guy decks do any better than anything else in the
games we've played. If you are playing 3 or 4 player games, gang up on
the "Big Guy" and beat him down a little. Teach him a lesson.
