Getting the Team Back Together

A large part of this decks power lies in its flexibility and most of that flexibility comes from its allies. Each serves an important role on your crack team of heist operatives. Blindfold gathers intel, allowing you to more effectively use Thief Extraordinaire. Forge and Monica Chang work behind the scenes to provide you with important setup cards. Dazzler serves as a persistent distraction by confusing the villain, and Rogue is your muscle; she can always protect you or your teammates from casino security (the villain).

Tools of the Trade

A heist isn't complete without gear and this is no exception. Most of your time will be spent in Alter Ego using cards like Breaking and Entering, Creole Charmer, and Homeland Intervention to "steal" threat while you use Global Logistics to set up your Thief Extraordinaire ability and Mutant Education to recover Rogue and important Gambit cards like Creole Charmer and Molecular Acceleration. Chance Encounter can also be used to find important allies early or to recover them and put them back into play.

Double Crossed!

As I've said before, most of your time will be spent in AE while playing this deck, however, if you feel that it is necessary to blow your cover and go to hero form, that is also something it can handle. In fact going to hero form allows you to soak up some damage for your team, as well as use Charge de Card to store up charge counters in order to make Rogue easier to play.

I had a lot of fun theory crafting this deck concept, and hope you have as much fun playing it!
