Tangram Alley Boys
by Braz King (72 cards)

Designator: Hood

Deck description: A Lotus/Dragon Hood deck that maximizes the benefit of dead characters, has multiple sacrifice tricks, and recycles strong 5-fight or less hoods. Also watch for Mr. Simms and Big Daddy Voodoo doing tricks with Final Brawls. Speaking of Mr. Simms, he protected this deck from Police Stations, Final Brawls, Shattering Fires, Fusion Rifles, Tommy Guns, and Submachine Guns. He was the second star of the deck, next to Red Scorpion Killers. Both Seedy Dive and White Leopard Club were valuable at Origins. This deck plays out at times like a control deck and other times a board sweeper. It is a bit of a "toolbox" deck but has enough synergies to transcend that deck type.
