¿Por qué te golpeas?

Daniela siempre fue la más ruda del barrio, se sobreponía hasta de los golpes más duros de la vida pero sentía algo sola, que nadie sería su persona... hasta que conoció a Aquinnah.

Si Peter es el novio de Agnes/Carolyn (depende de a quién preguntes), ¿por qué no podría Aquinnah ser la novia de Daniela? Si a ambas les FASCINA devolver los golpes que les dan.

La idea

Con la reciente salida de Daniela Reyes y su habilidad de aprovecharse de los ataques de los enemigos, pensé en crear este mazo donde usemos al máximo su habilidad (de ahí el nombre del mazo: buscamos nosotros que nos golpeen y que los enemigos se golpeen) y permitir que nuestro buscapistas se desenvuelva sin preocupaciones.

¿Por qué Vivir y aprender y no ¡Qué suerte!?

  1. Este mazo es caro y necesitamos reducir sus costes lo más posible.
  2. Siempre podemos agregar ¡Qué suerte! nivel 2 o 3, pero Vivir y aprender tiene que ser de nuestras 5 cartas ya que solo tiene nivel 0.

¿Por qué Contrapuñetazo y no Cuchillo de supervivencia?

  1. Ver lo de arriba.
  2. No funciona con nuestra novia ni con Protección Corporal, pero si no los usas entonces es un arma que hace 3 de daño en la fase de enemigos (2 + 1 de Daniela).

Mano inicial

Quieres ver sí o sí en tu mano inicial:

Reemplaza toda tu mano inicial si es necesario, excepto si sale tu Llave inglesa de mecánico o el Espejo sagrado pues solo tienes 1 de cada en el mazo.

Pilotarlo

En una ronda típica vas a jugar Rescate heroico o "¡Ponte detrás de mí!", o activar la de tu Llave inglesa de mecánico para que te golpeen y activando la de Guard Dog o Aquinnah haciendo 1-4 daño sin pruebas ni acciones; y si eso no derrota al enemigo siempre puedes atacar durante tu turno con la de la llave inglesa, con Mano a mano o Fuerza bruta que sumarían 2-3 daño por turno. Pueden ver un video donde pongo a prueba este mazo AQUÍ.

De cero a héroe

Aquí veremos el camino de mejora (mejora las cartas en el orden en el que salen, si quieres tener el mazo en nivel 0 ve del medio hacia arriba):

  1. 2 Osadía 2 Aquinnah. Nuestra novia, obviamente lo primero en lo que pensamos por las mañanas. (6XP)
  2. 1 Cazador de reliquias. Necesitamos poder tener ambos accesorios en juego. (9XP)
  3. 2 Alijo de emergencia 2 No queda nada que perder. Dinero y cartitas, ¿qué más pedir? (15XP)
  4. 2 Inquebrantable 2 Fuerza bruta (17XP)

    ¡FELICIDADES! Llegaste al mazo actual, a partir de aquí tendrás compras de lujo.

  5. 2 Recuerdo querido 2 Recuerdo querido. Para evitar exiliar a un osito juega al otro antes de que el primero sea derrotado. (19 XP)
  6. 1 Espejo sagrado 1 Pulsera de maleficios. Te van a pegar tanto que vas a tener +2 en casi cada prueba. Obvia esta mejora si te toca una debilidad de Confines que de fastidie y ningún otro investigador en tu equipo puede curarlo. (20XP)
  7. 2 Contrapuñetazo 2 Bengala. Sin el espejo para curarnos tendremos que ir por daño más proactivo. (22XP)
  8. 1 Déjà Vu. Así no se siente mal exiliar a tus ositos o bengalas (27XP)
  9. 2 Gloria 2 Incansable. Para este punto el sellar las fichas positivas no te dolerá y es mejor robar 2 cartas por 0 que por 1 recurso. (29XP)

Why do you hit yourself?

Daniela was always the rudest of her neighborhood, she overcame even the hardest hits life gave her but felt somewhat alone, that noone would be her person... and then Aquinnah showed up.

If Peter is Agnes/Carolyn's boyfriend (depending on who you ask), why couldn't Aquinnah be Daniela's girlfriend? If both LOVE giving hits back.

The idea

With the recent release of Daniela Reyes and her ability to take advantage of enemies attacks I thought in creating this deck where we can maximize its use (thus the name of the deck: we want to get hit and make the enemy hit themselves) and allow our cluever get on with the job without worries.

Why Live and Learn and no Lucky!?

  1. This deck is expensive and we need to lower its cost as much as we can.
  2. We can always add Lucky! level 2 or 3, but L&L has to be one of our 5 cards since there's only level 0 of it.

Why Counterpunch and not Survival Knife?

  1. See above.
  2. It doesn't work with our girlfriend nor Flesh Ward, but if you don't use them then SK becomes into a weapon that deals 3 damage in the enemy phase (2 + 1 from Daniela).

Opening hand

In your opening hand you WANT to see:

Hard mulligan for them, unless you get Mechanic's Wrench or Hallowed Mirror since there's only one of each in the deck.

Piloting

In a typical round you're gonna play Heroic Rescue or "Get behind me!", or activate from your Mechanic's Wrench to get hit and activing de Guard Dog or Aquinnah's dealing 1-4 damage action and testless; and if that isn't enough you can always attack with your wrench's , Toe to toe or Brute Force adding 2-3 damage per turn.

Zero to hero

Here we'll see the upgrade path (purchase the cards in the order that you see, if you want to downgrade just go middle-up):

  1. 2 Daring 2 Aquinnah. Our girlfriend, obviously the first thing we think in the morning. (6XP)
  2. 1 Relic Hunter. We need to have both accessories in play. (9XP)
  3. 2 Emergency Cache 2 Nothing Left to Lose. Money and cards, what else to ask? (15XP)
  4. 2 Steadfast 2 Brute force (17XP)

    CONGRATS! You made it to the published deck, from here on all will be deluxe upgrades.

  5. 2 Cherished Keepsake 2 Cherished Keepsake. To avoid exiling Mr. Pawterson just play the other one before the first is defeated. (19 XP)
  6. 1 Hallowed mirror 1 Bangle of Jinxes. You're gonna get hit so much you'll be having +2 on almost every test. Omit this purchase if you get an EotE weakness that hinders you and no other investigator could heal it. (20XP)
  7. 2 Counterpunch 2 Flare. Without the mirror to heal us we're gonna need to be more proactive on damage. (22XP)
  8. 1 Déjà Vu. So it doesn't feel bad exiling your teddies or flares (27XP)
  9. 2 Glory 2 Unrelenting. At this point you don't care about sealing positive tokens ands it's better to draw 2 cards for 0 resources rather than 1. (29XP)

Thanks @Valentin1331 and Davi from obscurestudies.com for the ideas!

Hey! Good job for the deck!

If I may, and with my little experience with Daniela, here's my take: Aquinnah (3) is really strong and synergises really well with Daniela's . But sometimes, some Crypt Chill will force you to lose her and as she is your main weapon, it can turn quite bad.

I would personally add maybe Enchanted Blade that also gives you +2 for your attacks when Counterpunch and Clean Them Out leave you with your only 5 Base , which can be a little unreliable. I would maybe replace Guard Dog as you will always prioritise Aquinnah over Guard Dog and your best option is to keep her alive as much as possible.

Also, I like the boxing gloves approach that would make your draw significantly higher!

And maybe you could keep the Guard Dogs and get Relic Hunter + Rod of Animalism

Anyways, cool basis and a lot to explore here!

2 other decks I am testing is a Blessed Daniela and a Déjà Vu x2 Daniela that are both really good!

Thanks a lot @Valentin1331!

Yeah both allies are susceptible to ally hate but that's why we have 4 of them (2 of each), they're meant to be replaced by the first one that you draw, but you can always take out the dog to add Inspiring Presence or Trusted.

And I am too not comfortable with just punching at 5 so those cards are meant to be used with 2-3 combat enemies.

Déjà Vu Daniela sounds pretty fun and strong, looking forward to it!
