Notes from Kathoga:

"Sky Lynx is one of those characters who, while on paper seems like he would be a powerhouse just due to his ridiculous stats, ends up being a hard sell due to his high star cost and lack of better than good partners who don't just die right after they attack. With that in mind, my take on this challenge was to give Sky Lynx at least on character that should decently survive 2 attacks, while at the same time have the one character that could possibly get one decent swing before it gets squished. Hence, my line up of Sky Lynx, Seaspray, and Raider Nightflight (for Classic.)

I decided to go blue since in the majority of the games that I've seen him play in (minus the OA versions), Sky Lynx is best played going for the long game, thereby giving him time to get suited up and dish out massive damage while hardly taking any damage. This is also a deck that wants to go 2nd since 1) Nightflight is untouchable so there's time to possibly get him a decent pump for an attack before he dies), and 2) barring a ridiculous first attack/horrible defense, Seaspray isn't going to get one-shot. After that, the team gives you the option of either flip Sky Lynx so that you can essentially get a free action/upgrade play, or flip Seaspray for a filter later while still giving Nightflight +1 attack if he's going against a bot in a different mode. After that, it's pretty much doing what you can to keep Seaspray alive long enough to give time for Sky Lynx to become massive with upgrades that hopefully stick.

Speaking of, the highlights of the deck itself are the armors (which allow for some versatility depending on who you are up against), the 2 Hunker Downs and 2 UFOs for Sky Lynx, 1 Heavy Handed since the majority of what's currently being played will be smaller stars than Sky Lynx, and at least a 1 of if not 2 of the best Secret Actions currently being played. One thing you will notice is a lack of Brainstorms with all of the actions being played. *Spoiler alert* I have with good authority known that it will most likely be banned by the time this deck could be played, so I decided to not include it. There's one other card that might get the axe as well but it's not for certain yet so it stays...for now... "
