Nobody expects the HB Inquisition!

GuardianOfTheFlame 41

playing only 5/3 agendas you have a significant advantage: you only need to score 2 of them plus Domestic Sleepers while the Runner has to steal 3 agendas other than DS. This is basically a glacier deck that can build a strong scoring server taking advantage of the low agenda density. In addition, the deck has an alternative winning condition with Punitive Counterstrike that many people don't expect in HB! 8-)

Runners will learn that amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as fear, surprise and ruthless efficiency!

Liked just for the title.

You've only got one chief weapon, surprise, fear and surprise! :D

Surprise when you punish the runner with unexpected Counterstrikes, Fear when they know you run them and surprise again when you create a new scoring window thanks to Archer or Aggressive Secretary ;) I also love the title, however the deck is strong, solid and fun to play... even more than expected! :)

How are you finding Eve? I ended up swapping mine for Melanges in my purple punitive deck. Eves just take too long to pay out.

Eve works fine for me: Hedge Found, Successfull Demonstration and the ID ability fuels my early game economy, while Eve fits well for the mid-long game. Melange is an option, but I discard it because of the low trash cost: I usually don't need strong defense on R&D in the early game thanks to the low agenda density or the Counterstrike threat
