Strategy(General)
Like the deck says, Gotta Cheat to Win, I just steal the location and get the majority of the points that way. I am only good at fighting on Alchemy Locations so I have to make sure that we are always there, which I take care of with every location control card in the game. In the begining (turn 1) I more often then not will just give you the location so that I am playing my location at a time where I am bigger, have more people and the chances of winning are more in my favor. I don't mind giving a couple points way because once I am in the zone it is hard to get out of it.
Strategy(Specific)
vs.Alchemy/Elric
This is probably one of my toughest opponents. They have the same locations as I do and know how to fight at them probably better then me, I have to resort to more of my tech (Yoki, Shou) to win this over my brute strength. Since they are Elric my wits is more then likely higher. I will go first and elimiate their big guys before they can land the hurt.
vs.Homonculus
Ha, I actually laugh (no I don't), it is a battle of who's control is greater. I have the Alchemy to crush them in battle I just have to worry about getting there. Cancel their tech and try to rush to victory. This fight is easy if they let me hit lvl 3.
vs.Marcoh-7
Same as the Elric deck but I think I will have an easier time since his leader isnt as big as other Elrics. I have wits on him so once again I will use my tech to stop him. Really wish I played him at Regionals.
vs.Admin/Bloch
This really makes me consider running Admin myself instead of Duelist. The only this I lose is a beefy lvl 2 leader. This deck will hurt me if it gets its trick off. I really might go back to Admin if I see that this deck is too much for me.
vs.Rebel Beatdown
Pretty much the same as the Homonculus strategy except they have more alchemists. Pentioner doesnt hurt me much at all and Inspector sucks major but I can get around him it just makes it harder. In the end I have more Alchemy so it shouldn't be too big of a deal.
vs.Military Beatdown
They have more and stronger Alchemists but they are mostly Str and Wits based so keeping the pressure on Alchemy battles wins me the battle in this case. It is still a tough opponent but just stand my ground and I shouldn't have too much of a problem here. Just don't let them get too many locations before I get to lvl 3.
vs.Mirror/Master Manipulator
Hardest Matchup EVER. You have to see who's Alchemy is better they got all the same tricks as you do so you have see who goes first with their tech and that isnt always a good thing cuz you lose your fallback location. It is very tricky game you play against yourself. Hopefully you wont see much of it.
