"Take heed struggler. Struggle, endure, contend, for that alone is the sword of one who defies Death. Do not forget these words." -Skull Knight, Berserk

Freshly updated version of Toshiro; Now with Crimes! ;) All the heavy interaction you can shake a hunk of iron at! Recovery as both a mana-bomb & rez deck, with MUCH more resiliency & responsiveness than usual at doing so... You gotta be fast & hardy to last in the bleak world of Berserk

Give it all another go if it fails the first time, via Tosh-triggered Kaervek, the Punisher or Corpse Dance / Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed.

RPG Element: Alters depict scenes/characters from the anime/manga BERSERK. If Toshiro (Guts) loses while in play, Yawgmoth (Griffith) becomes the General & the Maybeboard swaps into the deck. If Yawgmoth loses (or kills himself), Toshiro returns to lead the next game. Immortal Enemies in an Eternal Power Struggle

Extra credit:

Head Games + Misinformation + Word of Command = Thwart their plans, their mojo, & their livelihood!

Xiahou Dun, the One-Eyed reusing Ghouls' Night Out to keep the deadliest recruits, or give him his Behelit Blade Vorpal Sword for the classic: "Skull Knight banishes you to the Shadow Realm!" (also good on a Flyer + Sudden Spoiling)

"He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee." - Friedrich Nietzsche
