Have you heard of the Illuminati? It’s a conspiracy theory that claims that world events are orchestrated by some hyper-powerful group of people. They’re supposedly trying to take over the world by causing various things to happen, bringing about a New World Order (“Whatcha gonna do, brother?”). I personally don’t get it. If they can control 99% of the major events that happen in the world, doesn’t that mean they’ve basically already taken it all over?
Anyways, I’m not here to talk about those Illuminati. See, I was thinking about what to write about on the blog next. I noticed two things. My last two decks were team attack swarm decks and all of them so far have been mono decks. The fact that they’re all linked together and similar like that is annoying to me. I like breaking out and defying expectations. So, I built a curve deck with lots of affiliations. The exact opposite of my past three decks.
What do those guys in suits that control the weather have to do with it? Maybe it was Illuminati mind control, maybe they’ve hypnotically suggested me to do this via inaudible radio signals, maybe I was just bored (my votes on the last one). Any way you cut it, I noticed the Marvel comic books Illuminati and linked versions in Vs. System. There was my deck! I would build a deck solely on the backs of the major players of the Marvel comics world!
