I personally would prefer for some opening scenario ideas to be tossed out. I don't think waiting for people to put up characters matters much for the ideas at least to be tossed out.

I could have app'd some of the more broken burn cards but I kept the 4k LP in mind when making the deck.

This isnt wholly a burn deck, more of a good FIRE stuff deck that Im hoping to curve into either FIRE Warrior or Pyro.

There was no banlist and I saw other people running those cards.

I have no way of searching out the parts for Blaze Fenix.

I'll swap out some of the stronger burn cards if need be.

If its a goodstuff fire deck, why does it have a dark room of nightmare slotted in. Fire has plenty to offer as you've shown in just being an aggressive monster deck without falling into the trappings of burn.

**What type of chef cooks in a dark room...**

Alright, so, let's talk about your previous deck's draft for a bit first 'cause I want to compare it to this current one later.

Unlike Charak, I don't immediately have a guttural reaction to burn in a 4K format, if only because of how this RP's looking to be structured. In a vacuum I don't really mind cards like Blaze Fenix or Dark Room of Nightmare. However, the first deck did have issues. It ran quite a lot of power cards on its own, and it really did benefit from the Graceful + Pot of Greed two-piece way more than Charak's deck did. Combine that with two revival cards in both Premature Burial and Call of the Haunted, and the deck was a surprisingly well-oiled machine. It was also really low economy, needing very few cards to be effective, meaning the draw engine was a lot more out of place.

However, with the second draft, a lot of those issues are gone. Because you shifted some cards around you now need to work harder to punish the opponent, while leaving more breathing room in what you can accomplish. Even better, by shifting power away from more card draw and setup (Graceful) into something like Graveyard of Wandering Souls you've set up a way to maintain your card advantage without needing to rely on fetching it all from the deck. The fixes are good stuff.

The deck and character are fine as they are, but there's still one tiny thing that bothers me whenever I see it: The inclusion of cards like Terraforming and Reinforcement of the Army. I don't often like these cards because while they're great in the real game to up the consistency of your deck, in a format where you can decide everything on your own they're nothing but padding. Since they just act as a proxy for any one card in your deck, and serve no other purpose than to get said card from your deck, you may as well just put that very card in your hand instead of first activating another effect to grab it. You're essentially wasting two slots in your deck you could instead be using to play some more interesting stuff that actually helps advance your gamestate.

Upstart Goblin is another one of these cards that really suck in that way, but at least Upstart has the +1000 LP "cost" attached to it. The fact it does something more than just get a card out of your deck instantly makes it more versatile in trying to write a story. So while you're allowed to keep both Reinforcement of the Army and Terraforming, I'd still suggest swapping them out because you're just gimping yourself ever so slightly by making them stick around.

I was thinking maybe we could open with a minor turf war where the Breakers defend their homebase from a rival gang.
