Law Dog Control Point Rush

Too much free time tonight, here’s a likely very bad decklist that i brewed around the Abram Grothe+Ol’ Howard combo (you use Abram’s job to discard your Howard, to have your deed with all its control points).
Goal is to try and get as much control point turn 1 as possible while being good in shootout. Might want to work on the hand structure. Also the starting posse is way too expensive for my liking, i changed it a bit multiple time but i’m never satisfied.

Deck here on dtdb.

I like the Abram + Ol’ Howard + Holy Ground Deed combo! I hadn’t thought of that before. However, with 4 starting influence and only 2 other influence dudes in deck, you’ll be seriously vulnerable vs. deed slide and “chess match” decks. I think you could easily cut down on some clubs and beef up your dude roster. Deliberate Infection and Clear Out! would be the first to go, in my opinion.
