Survivor Starter, Will and his pack

Part of a series of decks I've made to help introduce new players to the game with decks that are still in some way thematic.

This is flexible William Yorick deck that is all about getting together a pack of dogs while still being able to pick up the occasional clue with his trusty Lantern and Gravedigger's Shovel and by listening to the musings of graveyard ravens.

Each of these decks includes a 19 XP suggested build and Yorick's prioritize Charisma and Rods to make sure he can assemble his pack early. Replace Knives with Ice Picks when you have spare XP and upgrade your lanterns and guard dogs to their higher forms to cap it off.

If you want to take this deck through a longer campaign than Night of the Zealot, some more cards you could grab are Relic Hunter if you want to keep your Cherished Keepsake. Miss Doyle can benefit from the extra ally slots you'll end up with and upgrading your Overpowers, Gravedigger's Shovels, Evidence!s, and Viscious Blows will make you a bit more reliable towards the end of the campaign.

Again, this is meant to be a beginner-friendly, flex deck that pilots in a pretty straightforward way, so upgrades are mostly encouraged over new experienced cards. However, I have had luck introducing a Chainsaw or two to my new players, especially when playing alongside a more dedicated cluever.
