Norman Withers Playing True Professor

This deck was initially desgined to be a fun deck to mimic (and make a little fun about) the experience at the university, as a former Ph.D. candidate. However, it turns out to be quite powerful.

Principle: Focus on your primary task (investigating) without spending much resources and let your students and assistances eat all the horror which rains upon you.

It works pretty well since it (almost) perfectly utilizes Norman's special ability. His ability can be divided in two parts, which are:

1. You can see your top card of the deck: This synergizes perfectly with cards like his two favorite books, Foresight and Written in the Stars.

2. You can play the top card with -1 resource cost, i.e., 0% discount for cost 0 cards, 100% discount for cost 1 cards, 50% for cost 2 cards, ... . To utilize this effect, we have mostly cost 1 and cost 2 cards in the deck to get maximum relative discounts (Professors love saving money).
