Lockpicks to suck up clues using Leo's extra action after exausing enemies. This was made by my 12 year old son so probably needs refining but this has seen him through 6 scenarios of FA so far so not too bad.

Mar 04, 2020 zshoness · 1 Not a bad deck IMHO. Honestly, it seems like this deck could Hoover them clues & fight some baddies (provided they don't add too much vengeance). The only thing I would get rid of pronto is the liquid courage, especially since he upgraded into an elder sign amulet to soak some sanity. Unless it has been helpful on multiple occasions for other investigators (like Agnes) to sip on Finn's flask, his will power just isn't there to make it worth it. It is tempting though since it is illicit, but it is action inefficient and will most likely cost you a card each time you use it. Maybe 86 one or two of those other accessories, too. Ace in the Hole is always a good pick if you can afford it. The combination with Pay Day extends your riches for turn after turn. Since this deck has some decent fighting options, maybe an upgrade to that switchblade. I have been running a Finn Deck in the Dunwich campaign & my upgrade purchase is a Guardian style .45 Thompson. With Lockpicks, I'm not sure its worth it, but I'm just too tempted by the out of class option. I have always wanted to run a deck with Charon's Obol, but so far I've just been too afraid. Good on him for taking a walk on the wild side there. I wish this game had been created when I was 12. Hopefully, he continues to enjoy it for years to come. Happy (clue & snake) Hunting!
