Wendy and the Mercs for Money

This is designed to be a very aggressive Wendy solo deck. The inspiration here came from the realisation that Hired Muscle actually makes a lot of sense in a dark horse deck. Once Dark Horse is in play, you’ll almost always be spending your 1 resource upkeep on Scrapper, either to get +1 for a single test, or to get nothing, just to activate dark horse. So why not give it to hired muscle instead and get +1 on all attacks? The only way you’ll be any worse off is if you wanted to spend it on , but 5 should usually be enough, and you’re doing less evasion than usual here anyway. All that said, he’s not the most important element in the kit, and it can function without him. Your line of assets should go Leo De Luca, Baseball Bat, Dark Horse, Lone Wolf, Hired Muscle, in about that order. This will give Wendy 5. Spend your 1 resource from Lone Wolf to boost your first attack to 6. For second and subsequent attacks, your deck is loaded with and icons for committing. .41 Derringer is really only here for Conglomeration of Spheres and Avian Thrall, and for its icon. You want to be fighting with Baseball Bat. Remember to only use Wendy’s ability to redraw a or , never just a miss. The bat is extremely unlikely to break this way. The only carcosa update I’ve added is Resourceful, which is awesome. There should be enough here to handle investigations. If Flashlight does get equipped it will only stick around until you get out the bat, so I wouldn’t bother with Lockpicks. I’ve used this deck in all released scenarios before carcosa and it’s always done well. Carcosa may prove a bit more problematic due to the extra , but we’ll see.
