READY, STEADY, DREADY

Inspired by Boomguy's Old Saint Nick ready deck, I decided to make a version in aggression because the red cards are the best cards. It is holiday season, so this deck also aims to give the user plenty of gifts in the form of minions.

For our minion summoning lineup we have:

For our ready lineup we have:

Readying Abuse

We are also running Symbiote Suit to boost our statline to make each ready activation more effective. It also provides a HP surplus which can enable the undisputed best card in the entire game, Counterattack to do insane amounts of damage. I have used this deadliest card to inflict 18 points of damage against an unsuspecting Venom Goblin , all but ending the game. I often end up using Counterattack to close games out. I used it against Venom Goblin in another match to defeat him on stage 3 expert before revealing the additional encounter cards. I was forced to drop down to only 1 copy of this most godlike card as I just couldn't find the space to keep all 3 in. I am rather fond of the 3 copies of Espionage and given that Counterattack is max 1 per player and that I typically use it once set-up, there is plenty of time to find the 1 copy in multiple deck passes and have it ready for use. I also dropped the player side schemes as I wanted more cards that can just immediately deal with problems.

Minion Abuse

3 copies of "Bring It!" and the Man on the Wall ensure we have ways of taking advantage of the minions we summon. Fury's own Stealth suit can also be powered up via minion scheme activations. We then have 2 copies of Spray Fire and The Bellerophon to clean out the minions when need be. There's a double benefit going on here with all the minion stuff. We gain resources and the like, and then also maximise the value out of our minion clearing cards. That kind of synergy is insane.

Conclusion

With all the readying up you'll be doing, you will have the flexibility to handle whatever challenges come your way. It is very easy to burn through Bambino and clear out minions with overkill as an alternative to using a minion sweeper card.
