Actually, since this is meant to be an anti-Wake the Dead deck, you
might want to add an In The Spotlight (which someone mentioned as an
anti-this deck strategy). It's only 1Y, meaning you can put Stomper out
*and* In The Spotlight on the first turn, so no one else can put him
into play. Since everyone else is playing with four Stompers in the
deck...

Not sure what cards to sub out for it. Maybe two of the GAQs.

So the ideal situation becomes:

Turn one: Draw Stomper, Katana, In The Spotlight, Cover Up, random four
other cards (preferably *not* Challenges!) Deploy Stomper, play In The
Spotlight on him.

Turn two: Collect nuyen instead of cards, play a Cover Up on your
opponent's objective (preventing them from running against it on their
turn), deploy the katana, and get goin'. Assuming the worst, you end up
scoring the Reputation and Stomper winds up with six points of damage.

Looking at things this way, you might want to sub out the Glitzes for
Hawkwinds (since running twice in a row becomes a main strategy).

Incidentally, you might want to replace one of the Urban Brawls with a
fourth Wake the Dead.

Cheese almighty. :)
