[macleod]

I've put together a Type 2 Connor deck after getting feedback from a more experienced player; please critique this deck as I welcome all feedback.

Strategy: Use pre game Gathering to get the Lion-Head Hilt if it's not in my starting hand. Next couple of turns get Allies in play; One Year of Love speeds up the process. Then Lunge Headshots with the Lion Head Hilt.

Gem Count:
6 Master, 10 Agility, 17 Strength, 12 Toughness, 18 Empathy, 8 Reason

This deck is 63 cards. I'd like to reduce the deck size but am not sure what to take out.

You could pull different Vintage if you wanted, this makes your current deck faster and better able to get to what you need.  Try to keep the design you built without out changing the deck to much.  You are going conner head hunting.  You could consider his inner strength as some of your edge altering if you wanted/and or lower your edge safety count - how you designed it, this is all or nothing.  I pulled Alex, because in your case she really hurts you - you can't get back your basic atacks and you are running all retrival cards

A very good choice to include me as an ally!

Remember the British Invasion is always here 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

Hope all is good with you and yours.

you may very well be in all my decks - but in that deck it would be a Brith and French guy in Scottish Headhunter deck.
