Daisy Walker: Lesbian Book Club

This was my end-of-Campaign list for daisy Walker(advanced) Version that I played in Innsmouth Conspiracy. I hadn't wanted to play her for the longest time due to the fact there weren't many pay-offs for her Tome-gathering ways that topped off with her strength being below average as an investigator generally.

More books were printed and the advanced version of her tote bag opens up whole new worlds of possibility.

This deck was made with the group I was playing with in mind (Mandy, Nathaniel Cho, Luke Robinson, and Winifred) And the fact Winifred's Faustian bargains, Nathaniel's Stand together's and Mandy's abilities were often funneled towards me, turning on my engine sooner than it might be with a different team set-up, as without those features I might have designed the deck to be less money-hungry.

Core Concept:

This is an engine deck, most cards don't achieve that much by themselves, but amassing a whole pile of them will enable Daisy to mass an incredible amount of clues in little time while even getting a few bonus cards, evades et cetera.

Early Game you're not doing

Mulligans: What cards do you keep? You keep an Old book of lore, Your Lesbians(Whitton Greene and Abigail), Grim memoir, and Daisy's tote bag. You mulligan anything else(assuming you don't have a lesbian), Abigail because Abigail+ any book with an action = Good things, and Whitton because she finds you those books while hopefully keeping you in good company with her stat boosts.

Notable Cards:

Old book of lore: The upgrade is soooo much better than I gave it credit for, playing the card for 2 fewer resources makes this card an eco-boost as well as dig towards the cards you need at the moment. 10/10 for daisy

Abigail: Abigail And daisy are lovers in an open poly-relationship and there is nothing that should ever convince you that they don't belong together. She makes everything Daisy wants to do better and vice-versa. Their romance is flawless and the relationship is strong after years of working, living, and loving together.

Whitton Greene: Whitton Greene is daisy's collage-buddy with benefits that always seems to have the best book recommendation on hand and she also lets daisy cheat off her notes, which is helpful. Also, she honestly loves watching Daisy and Abigail Read together

Elina Harper: The unlikely friend that got daisy out of trouble a couple of times, and they have a tumultuous on-and-off relationship. Elina feels insecure about the whole poly thing and isn't confident enough to broach the issue with daisy, especially because she knows that if it's a question of her or Abigail, Eilina knows which one of them they would choose.

Ariadne's Twine: This deck is stuffed with various assets with secrets, and turning your money into their charges is almost always a good deal.

Dream Diary: I wasn't sold on this when I got it, but it turns out a free 2 ? commit every turn with the upside of it sometimes being a 4? is actually fantastic, and since you don't need it all the time you can often afford to use them to help out your buddies and/or pad your hand to stay at 5+ cards for higher education

Deck Pros: BOOK GO THUMP! When the deck has amassed it's ramshackle collection of cards, it does a lot of investigations, free movements, free evades with archaic glyphs and Eon Chart, cheating the chaos bag with Pnakoti manuscripts, Healing friends with medical texts, etc, etc, you can reliably grab an absurd amount of clues while still having actions to spend on activating utility books.

Money Cards: You may have noticed that the deck is running 6 money cards, which for a more recent AH deck-building philosophy is really a lot, but the deck is EXTREMELY money hungry, and pretty much every chance you can to boost your resource income is worth it. And quite frankly Resources available is a big bottleneck towards this deck seeing it's full power*

*If you are playing without the mutation list and you're not playing with another deck that plays him, Daisy can have the bisexual arch with Dr-Milan Christopher that the audience has been teased with for the last 4 seasons.

Overall this deck is very fun to play. A relatively linear goal(gather clues) But loads of options and utility with which to surprise your teammates with your surprising amount of flexibility.
