Leo’s Expedition with his Trusty Sled Dogs

OK this is janky! This is a fighter deck for a standalone game. You would need a seeker to balance the game. I kept to 19 XP, and the additional weakness is randomised.

The idea is to maximise Leo's ability & get as many allies on the table, you can get up to 8 allies in total.

Let’s draw out the plan. Stick to the Plan takes Ever Vigilant, Emergency Cache, and Prepared for the Worst. If you drew Rod of Animalism or a Sled Dog, this should be the ideal start (I hard mulligan for it). Your first turn is either Ever Vigilant and get 3 assets on the table. 63% of your deck is assets, so it shouldn't be hard to achieve this. Or alternatively your first turn is to put an action-free 1-discount ally in play and then Emergency Cache to setup for a Ever Vigilant in turn two.

How good are the Sled Dogs really? Well, if you do have Rod of Animalism in play, they only cost you 1 each. The 1st Sled Dog is just a +1 . The 2nd Sled Dog and you have a weapon more powerful than a Machete. I could imagine getting 2 on board by turn 5 should be relatively simply. The 3rd Sled Dog and you're flying really, literally across all locations. The 4th Sled Dog is just nirvana, that is if you ever find the 4th! With Inspiring Presence you can move and fight at the same time, think of Duke on steroids! OK OK let's not get too carried away, but did I say Calling in Favors could tutor the 3rd Sled Dog. Swap Beat Cop with Lucid Dreaming & I think nothing can stop the gravy train...

Safeguard is helping you move around so you don't exhaust your Sled Dog by moving. But here's the trick, you don't need to exhaust all 4 Sled Dog, 2 get you to move twice, and the other 2 fight for you.

Liquid Courage and Flesh Ward is to keep your sanity in check.

Early game Machete, Beat Cop, Guard Dog should keep you afloat till your Sled Dogs are ready to run...Prepared for the Worst on Stick to the Plan should help you get your Machete

This deck needs CASH! hence the Faustian Bargain, Emergency Cache, "Watch this!" & Ever Vigilant. I did think of slotting in Decorated Skull, but it's just to slow for my liking. Couple of annoyances, Calling in Favors & Ever Vigilant discounts don't stack with Leo's ability (I think so, unless someone has checked that it does!?)

Good luck & enjoy the deck!

PS Just imagine how much fun it would be getting all 4 sled dogs on the table!
