Goon

Goon
Secret Society:	Illuminati
Weapon 1:	Hammers
Weapon 2:	Blades

The Goon, wielding blade and hammer, is the face that stopped a thousand punches. This is a deck intended for tanking, focusing on survivability and drawing attacks away from the group. With a variety of buffs that trigger when the Goon is struck with glancing blows, this deck welcomes a beating.

A selection of self-heal effects prop up the Goon's survivability, including both of their elite abilities.
