This was the first of the proper pain decks for me, though I had ventured into this territory a couple of times before having the cards to make it work. Fatal Attraction did a nice job, but Binding Agony and Ragged Veins really made that work. There were some odd choices, but it was also one of my better uses of Mangara’s Tome. A little removal was in there to keep me alive long enough to get a start. The (1)/8/17/6/3/3 curve resulted in a friendly 2.29 average, though Wheel of Fate makes it functionally a little higher.
