As soon as I saw this card mentioned somewhere it was an instant "YEP!" like in Step Brothers when the guys have their moment about just becoming best friends.

The hard decision was whether to try and go hyper group hug, have some of the deck do this or none at all.

I ended up trying to find ways just to seem friendly enough and not being a threat moving late game into two creature types I just love at the top-end of mana curve: Sphinxes & Hydras.

Absolutely no real expectations here other than a deck that will be a bit of fun to play in larger groups.
