Hmmm... Johnny + Strikes = HR's that will win :-\

[zhanghe852]

Johnny + Dynamic + Learn to fight with finlay = ;D

[Ace Rimmer, Attorney at Large]

yeah, one of my friends is trying that idea out. using the Squad to make Long Ass Title of Spirit a set-up and a nice rainbow of moves to make all into high risks.

[zhanghe852]

maybe play Spirit squad as a whole and at the beginning use Johnny to get the F and then towards the end switch to Nicky to remove their F if they got any or troublesome cards in their ring area.

[Ace Rimmer, Attorney at Large]

yeah, thats a pretty good idea. do the Dynamic thing to HR your way up the ladder, then when you're there, start throwing them as Subs or something with Nicky. good thought.

[magi9088]

I still like Mikey drawing 5 cards a turn the best out of it all though. Play Bad Blood and Underrated which basically says, I search for High Spirits. Also, throw down an it's show time to go first. Now, High Spirits, draw 5 cards, then remove a reversal in hand from the game, High Spirits, that equals to 10 cards on turn one. Now, unless you are Andre, penetrate the wall of red that now sits in my hand. Against Andre ... I'm still trying to figure out anything to do against Andre as anyone.

[Ace Rimmer, Attorney at Large]

well you always make yourself the Squad instead of just one of them. so against Andre you use Mitch. then each turn you use SPIRIT SQUAD to get Give Me An S... and then discard it and overturn a card, reducing Andre's hand by 2, per turn. its quick, its easy, it works.

[magi9088]

Yeah, but you don't get the cards back in hand as you would with Mitch, plus when you finally get rid of everything, he just hides his backstage card and now, you're stuck as Mitch, with two cards in hand, while Andre has two, wait ... after all that, I think you're right. Thanks.

Anywho, the Squad is looking like it will be an amazing deck to play as. With their extreme versatility, I'm waiting to see what craziness some people come up with.

[Ace Rimmer, Attorney at Large]

not exactly, dont forget its a Set-Up for them. so you can pack alot of it, and if you use Boston you can have it be irreverseable. so you can use it, untill he hides his card, then odds are use it one more time. also, Give Me... shouldnt be your only recovery, use Iron Wills, then you can put them back, and use them to put it back, as either an action or reversal.

[magi9088]

Sounds like the beginnings of a deck that can deal with anything that gets thrown at it. Time to buy a few boxes of GAB and get all the SS stuff that doesn't come in 'em. Then, time to make a deck!

There was a ruling on this before I think, JYD. Johnny's effect goes off before the effect of Finlay, so the maneuver could not be changed to a strike then discard, it must already be a strike. Which is why I have built Spirit Squad/Johnny/Volley.

no this does actually work, the reason it doesn't work with JYD is his ability alters the ability to play the maneuver, johnny's ability doesn't affect the ability to play the maneuver.

[Daeva]

Yeah, Fortitude effects go before anything else because, well, they have to. You control both the Johnny and Finlay effects and they both go off at the same time, so you can decide how they're applied.

[kennedy]

Ah, my bad. Thanks.

And that my friends equals gayness

[magi9088]

Yeah, all my dynamics are high risks = rediculous. Looks like I will be packing three ( instead of one) Overshot Your Mark and 3 (instead of 2) Lift A Boot.

yup, then you face Team Angle and 6 cards in your deck are dead.

[magi9088]

Exactly! lol, but no one in my local area even owns a set of Team Angle (that I know of) so I'm not really worried about it, but that's like saying don't pack escape move and break the hold because if you face mono-strike you have 6 dead cards.

[Ace Rimmer, Attorney at Large]

its a joke. but dont ya think 3/3 is a little overkill?
