    Starter Dishonor Deck

     Hi! I want to try a "kindergarden" dishonor deck, just to display how it works and basic mechanics. I thought of this line-up

    DVD

    3 Events

    In Time of War

    Proposal of Peace

    A New Wall

     

    13 Holdings

    Seat of Power

    Private Trader

    District Governor

    Hidden Dragon Temple

    3x Family Library

    3x Famous Bazaar

    3x Geisha House

    24 Personalities

    Kaukatsu

    Paneki

    Kurumi XP

    Seibei (or Maru?)

    Jimen

    Jimen XP

    3x Uyeda

    3x Takuro

    3x Ikkou

    3x Chikayo

    3x Hisako

    3x Saya

    FATE

    3x Unfortunate Incident

    3x Assigning Blame

    3x Share the Blame

    3x Brand of Cowardice

    3x Hired Killer

    1x Mysterious Deaths

    1x Onnotangu's Memory

    1x Koutetsu Shinri

    3x Ramifications

    3x Manipulation

    3x Excessive Indulgence

    3x Diplomatic Apprentice

    1x Naseru's Private Journals

    ... and I'm missing 9 cards; what do you think I should put in to demonstrate the basics of how dishonor works / should work, mixed with some interactive play? 9 slots, and I'm inclined to use bitter shadow of shame, summoned to justice, hunting the prophet, unexpected betrayal, insolence punished, stay your blade, misdirection, knowledge, coward!.... so many choices, so few spaces!

    It's supposed to be a simple "ah, so that's what I do, I dishonor the other person and I make him lose honor" deck; what to put in? 

     

    "I will be your villain, Hantei. But if you betray me..."

    3x Game of Sincerity is good!

    I think your holdings need some re-working.  You only have thirteen, and three of them have are in there to be destroyed for their main benefit (Family Library) while usually discarding a holding at the same time.  I don't think you'll ever have enough gold to effectively use your Hired Killers, let alone attach the armor, journal and apprentices.

    If you want it to be a teaching deck, perhaps use a variety of cards at 2x, that way the player gets a greater feel for what options are available in dishonor decks (and you get to include all the cards you named).
