First, a story*:

Spoiler for Hidden:

One day, little Otyugh got hungry.  "Wow, what fibrous creatures those look to be," he thought to himself, gazing at the critters in the neighbour's fields.  "I think I'll have me a snack."

And snack, he did.  So much so, that when the inevitable happened, he knew it would be epic (Nova).  Locking himself in his private privy (Bone Wall [door], Sanctuary), he felt safe and ready for a good cleansing - some of those yummy critters had poisonous bits!  (Purify, Quintessence.)

Patiently (SoP) he waited, perusing his favourite magazines ( HG), but to no avail - just a noxious semi-release (UG).  As his friends hurried to see what was on the other side of the pasture fences (Oty, Epinephrine), little Otyugh had scary visions of what was to come (Nightmare). 

When his accumulated efforts finally bore fruit (Explosion), everyone was stunned (Silence).  The air pressure, mixed with the toxic fumes, knocked down nearby buildings (EQ), and hit the nostrils like a hammer (Gavel).

Everybody was overcome.  Everyone, that is, but little Otyugh.  He felt just peachy (Improved Heal).

THE END.

Okay, so the funny thing is, this deck kind of works.  Especially since it's entirely based on the narrative theme, one that kept me amused almost all day at work today (yeah, I know, simple pleasures...).

Anyone have any suggestions, that both keep with the lowbrow humour, and improve this deck?  I was thinking of maybe doing a Burrito Version, with -Silence, -Heal, +Fire Storm, +Shockwave, for example.  If you read the story, you'll get the joke with the name Burrito Version, and the changes made to the deck.

Any suggestions (except for STFU - I ignore that one IRL all the time)?


**: Oh yeah, and I totally made you read a story about pooping.

It seems so slow... why not an afla to infect a 2nd Oty oty and keep eating cells?

Instead of what?  And, more importantly, how does it fit the theme?  This deck, after all, is based on ETG in-joking mixed with potty humour - eyes on the prize! 

I agree that it would speed things up greatly - so would just outright removing some 8-10 cards, and focusing the deck.  But it's the story that made me laugh - perhaps it's just another sign of how ETG has inundated my life - and still makes me laugh, while my Oty nom-noms away.

Maybe I should take this to the Engineers?
