A lot of cards - none will stop this deck from winning. This deck needs
no more than 5 or 6 turns to win an 80 point one-on-one game (which it
was designed for). We´ve playtested this against any possible
configuration mentioned above - and it wins every time. If you build
your deck with the above (and you need a lot of them), you will not be
able to score many points yourself. ---Felix
