Disclaimer: This deck only works with taboo!

I have a love/hate relationshit by the exploits pointed out by K_oroviev (in their review of Burn After Reading and Iduno in their review of Memories of Another Life (regarding Adaptable), it inspired me to create this deck, which can utilize both. Let's take a look at what this deck does:

That's it, basically. The rest of the deck is typical difficulty-0-play and other minor synergies:

Have fun tabusing ;)

I like all that xp save too much. You may use Lawrence Carlisle for the +1

Is there an FFG ruling on these interactions?

I know when Pathfinder was a +2 XP taboo in 2022, people like Roland could still take it because it was still considered a 1 XP card - so I sort of see the logic. Equally though, common sense would say these exploits go against the spirit of the respective taboos on the base cards. However I guess as with all things people should play in a way they find fun.

@Julio_R: I wouldn't want to sacrifice the ally slot and his reaction triggered ability is not useful for this deck :/

@HungryColquhoun: There is a difference between the level of a card and its experience cost. Personally, I find that as confusing and semi-effective as you do, but for this reason the interactions in question remain legal. And yes, I think they chose this "patching" approach so that investigator's card pool access would not change (as you mentioned with Roland).
