This idea came from the 2014 Dream Wizard's Regional in two times. First by losing a game againts a Syndicate Deck with O'Bannion's Inner Council. Second, by receving the Alternat Art of Tattoo Artist. So i decide de make a deck based on skill reduction. I found a lot of cards on CGDB's deck build section. I can't really write the Strategy. The idea is just to reducte skill and commit stories with the Council with the help of M David Pan. I don't play Peter Clover because I don't see the point of having him in the deck. You can say the same for Naomi, but you have to admit it, she's cute  Just a few questions. Is Dutch Touch necessary ? I like Naomi 4 skill good icons for 3, but her effect is pretty useless in my deck, I mean, it's a good effect but I got nothing to schuffle/search in my deck. Some advices would be great. Thanks you guys. Ps, got only 49 cards, so be free to add/remove as you want. |

I'd go up to 3 x Hanyatl's in a dedicated skill reduction deck. It's probably the easiest one to trigger.
Maybe add in a couple of extra 4+ cost guys to use it properly, / Bicknell Willett / Johnny Valone / Kuranes / Sons of Hermes / Scindere are all nice options with willpower
OK thanks, I will look for thoses cards. Thanks !
I like to use Parallel Universe in my skill deck. It's like extra David Pans.
Also, that's a lot of 3x unique. You'll be getting dead draws once you've got a few guys on the table. Definitely second Parallel Universe.
Hey,
Yeah maybe too many Unique characters, I'll put the Parallel Universe. and prob' remove 1x each unique characters, but I'm a bit affraid of having not enough characters with the CoC gameplay, putting cards as ressources. Such a fear
ps : Wilbut have you a link for the Pittsburgh event ?
I went ahead and made a thread about the pittsburgh event for you.

I have quite a bit of experience running syndicate skill reduction decks and one thing I found out when playing the archtype was I didn't like both ice shaft and crowbar in my deck. I found that ice shaft was doing everything that I needed it to do and crowbar wasn't doing enough. Ice shaft destroys and crowbar just wounds. I would take the crowbar out and put in immurement or concrete and chains.
After thinking about it a little more here is the list I would run initially:
3 johnny v's dame
3 hatchet man
3 marine salvager
3 diseased sewer rats
3 clover club torch singer
2 lena di boerio
2 street tough
2 tattoo artist
2 henry knoll
2 mr david pan
2 peter clover
2 melisande le beau
2 naomi o'bannion
2 o'bannion's inner council
3 ice shaft
3 concrete and chains
2 the clover club
3 immurement
3 reallocate-you want extra domains for all your pay 1 effects from lena, torch singer, and street tough
3 tear gas
Hey Thanks Kama that a interesting deck you have here. I'll look for this and try to compare with mine and see where i can go.
Your point on the crowbar is interesting too,and the immurement look nice.
Ty guys
