[Monkey D. Wolfwood 0]

Its been kind of dead for UFS here so I haven't had much time practising this deck.

Astrid

 

2x 4/6 Astrid..

2x 3/4 Valkyrja's Sheild +2M B:1 Unique Weapon
2x 2/4 Reaver's Axe +2H Unique Weapon

2x 6/3 Fierce Twin Slash Multiple:1 Weapon
4x 5/3 Astrid's Wolf Strike +1M Weapon
4x 4/3 Try's Warding Smash +1H Weapon
4x 3/3 Pommel Smash Stun:1 Weapon
4x 3/3 Fire Shadow +0H Weapon

3x 2/5 For the Money +3M
2x 2/4 Relentless Weapon
4x 2/5 Queen's Champion
4x 2/5 From the Mouse, Humility +3L
3x 2/4 Resourceful +3M Weapon
4x 2/5 Rivalry with a Bear +3M
4x 2/5 Finacial Troubles
4x 2/4 Bloodied but Unbowed
4x 1/5 Envoy of the Queen +3L
4x 0/5 Hope for One's People +3H

I am looking for room for 3x For the Money and 4x Bloodied but Unbowed. Its your basic reverse with Astrid while I pump the speed with the stacker character. If anyone could help me please do.

Have you thought about adding in Duel Wielding? Tack that onto an Attack that has recieved a Speed bump off Promo Astrid, and rack up the damage. Not to mention it is a Weapon, so failing to play is is not all that bad.

Raven's Claw is a solid attack to add if you want to, I usually get's it up to unblockable speed and can finish them off with it

what would you suggest to take out for said cards?

I have a few suggestions for you as far as Astrid is concerned:

1. Attacks with Multiple aren't all that great with her; remember that the copy has a blank text box, and is thus not a Weapon attack.  Also, high costs are a bit of a no-no for Astrid, since most of the stuff she does likes to commit foundations.

2. Attacks with a high difficulty (5+) should be kept at a minimum for Astrid; she can make any attack beastly, so you don't have to worry about the base damage as much as you do with other characters.

3. Hungry for Battle is godly; discard a card from the top of the deck, AND get damage?  As a free E?  Sign me up!

4. I hate to beat a dead horse, but ShadoWar covers up what's basically her biggest weakness (speed).  To that end, your line-up should be mostly ShadoWar attacks.  I know they're not all that easy to get, but believe me when I say they'll work wonders for you.

Lastly, I have the decklist for my playgroup's Astrid here, which I'll share with you.  Hopefully, you'll find something useful there:
