Zoey's Enchanted Evening

This is a Zoey build that emphasizes theme over optimization, though we're still trying to have a decent multiplayer deck here. We'll carve up enemies with big knives while clutching a multitude of holy symbols. Sometimes God Himself will mysteriously show us the way.

At the start of the scenario, Stick to the Plan will trigger Astounding Revelation and get you 2 resources. (Thematically, let's interpret Astounding Revelation as a special message from God.) We're putting Ever Vigilant, Prepared for the Worst, and Righteous Hunt under Stick to the Plan, so we'll look to play Ever Vigilant on the first turn and put three assets into play. If we didn't draw one of our weapons, Prepared for the Worst can find it for us. Righteous Hunt is a thematic card that's a nice tactical option to have available. It also serves as a decent answer to Smite the Wicked.

Then we want to put Enchant Weapon onto our Machete or Meat Cleaver and go to town. With two Holy Rosaries and two Brother Xaviers, Meat Cleaver should be safe enough to use. (Note that sometimes you might want to deliberately kill off Xavier with your Cleaver!)

We'll look to stack a bunch of Willpower boosts in the form of Holy Rosary, Brother Xavier, and Physical Training. Not only will this provide great defense against the encounter deck and buff our Enchant Weapon, but we can also translate the Willpower into clues via Sixth Sense. Physical Training is also a good way for us to use any excess resources from Zoey's ability.

Stand Together, Guts, Daring, and Overpower are useful tools to get us through our deck and help find us our key cards. Safeguard is just too good to pass up. We're a little lacking in damage compared to some big-gun setups, so Vicious Blow is definitely needed here. If you have extra XP, I would look to upgrade Safeguard, Overpower, and Vicious Blow, probably in that order.

Note that we're not really trying to leverage the Bless tokens from Holy Rosary and Righteous Hunt. I don't think we have enough consistent generation to enable the big payoffs like Nephthys. Perhaps I'm wrong about that, and it's something worth testing. I am sure that the forthcoming Holy Spear would be great in this kind of build. That card is good even if we don't have any Blesses, and becomes amazing if we do.
