Don't try to tell me what a good deck is.

EDIT: Reinforcements was cool, but its best proactive uses (Initiate to Paradox Cube or ID Chop Shop to Material Transcendence) weren't reliable enough to warrant the overhead. Reworked to use 1x Ritualistic Chanting instead of Reinforcements engine. Cut all other spirits. Diversified events.
