Here’s my thinking for these cards:
This deck is inspired by the show How I Met Your mother. While the Ice isn’t particularly related to the show (with 1 exception), nearly all the other cards are.
In particular:
Barney Stinson:
Bryan Stinson - obvious
Titan Transnational - like Goliath National Bank
Global Food - Barney works at a food kitchen b/c of court ordered service
Witness tampering - One of Barney’s co-workers talks about interfering with elections somewhere
Restructure - Barney talks about firing people when he restructures his dept.
Executive Search Firm - he’s good at working with headhunters
Executive Retreat, Geothermal Fracking - like things he does at GNB
Adonis Campaign - like Barney’s appearance on the super bowl
Robin Scherbatsky:
News Team, Expose - Robin is a news anchor
Jackson Howard - feels like Sandy Rivers to me
Contract killer - Robin is a gun nut
Lily Aldren:
Lily Lockwell - her name is Lily.
Marshall Erickson:
Zealous judge - later in life Marshall becomes a judge
Mark Yale - looks like a lawyer
Ted Mosby:
Levy University - Ted is a prof
Architect - Ted is an architect
Preemptive action - the show regularly featured “interventions”
No particular reason:
NASX, Hedge Fund
So, Stimhack hivemind – what HIMYM thematic appropriate cards should I add to the deck? It’s pretty maxed out in size now, so indicate what I should remove and why. Also, I don’t need this to be a championship deck, but I would like it to be somewhat playable.
