soooooooo let's get crackin'! feel free to slam my "work" of art haha but i slam back =P

Resources:
2x obsession(starting)
15x elitism

Characters:
4x skimping ecto-manipulator
4x quotidian ejector
4x contriving engineer
4x legacy war machine
4x topplemajig
2x 3p1ph4ny 31f
4x T force 5 megabrutemajig

Tactics:
4x obsessive compulsion
4x voidal interference
4x 1337!
4x air travel
4x voidal perversion
4x forget
4x quotidian assassination

items:
4x lugubrious finger trap

as for the 2 of you who will actually read how the deck(as i envisioned at 2 a.m. last night).

basically the point is to get big fatties out there quick. by using 1337! to play contriving engineer first turn playing a second resource then on the next turn you should have out a staller or something the opponent wants to get rid of(legacy war machine, topplemajig, etc.). or, another route i think would be pretty interesting is turn 2 drop 3p1ph4ny 31f and T force 5 megabrutemajig. its interesting that way because they won't have the resource icons to play mauler, mangod, or something beefy unless they're running mono-warlord or something close to it.

however, if they do manage to play some beefy character(s) i have bounce mechanisms with forget, quotidian assassination, ejectors and whatnot.

some of you may think that i may not be able to play them because im too busy worrying about the costs for my fat characters, which is not true at all. early game if i dont get the 1337! combo or if i need some extra back-up or whatever, i can get my lil guys in there.

the token stuff does actually do wonders with the deck and i found out that rarely do people use tokens, be it because they don't like the cards or whether they're bad.

another little gizmo in the deck is the air travel. yes i know it seems kinda dumb but i have never used to card for my advantage outside draft before but if i could get some fatties with covert, mainly brutemajig, its good defense and/or offense if they have the covert characters in their decks.

thanks for reading<(^-^)>

My Air Travelled Brutemajigs have wrecked SO much face that I would be a fool to criticize your choice in using it. I've long thought about using Epiphany Elf but here are some cards that combo amazingly well with it: T Force 5 majigs (which you have), Voidal Interference (cancel their free play), Violating Anomoly (upon entering play you can force them to discard what they would have played for free), or cheap bounce (which you have). It might be worth focusing the deck more around ephiphany elves which you can then bounce and replay. If you do that having constant token based bounce would be good (so add in Eldridge Gosche or something else to produce tokens and expensive so good to play free).

Just my advice off the top of my head.

yeah i see what you mean when i built the deck i really liked being able to voidal interference their played card but that'd probably have to be more late game because i'd need to have 8 resources =/ its still good though haha the first few turns if i pull that combo off they wont be able to play anything of too great a value. lol jaque's trap is probably my biggest enemy

Ideally you could:

Turn 1
1337, contriving

Turns 2
1337, epiphany, T Force 5, Voidal Interference


Really tough combo to pull off, but the T Force means you only need 6 resources and a Violating you would only need 5. You do the gosche later when you have some good board presence already.

Just my thoughts :)

I play tested with him... So here is what i think. If it matters...probably doesnt/\.

This deck is good and pretty consistent for the record.. But it straight up lose to Strength in Numbers. The re-useable bounce is stronger than you think.
