Notes: This deck is unique in many ways.
The 3 character thing is interesting, but old hat around here.
I’m more fascinated by the card structure with 24 special cards and just 6 “basic” cards in FEINT and AMBUSH.
A 20 card structure of 4-3-3-2-2-2-2-2 should give the deck both some bread-and-butter abilities like THEY REMEMBER, DECOY and CLEVER GIRL while adding a variety of ways the Raptors can damage you depending on the game, and depending on whether or not they’ve been able to keep 2 or 3 alive.
