Starting out with Emperor Edition
I recently got a bunch of Emperor stuff - two copies of Honor and Treachery, a Scorpion Gempukku starter, a Crab Gempukku starter, and a pile of various boosters. Me and a friend played for the first time yesterday, my Scorpion vs his Crab. I won the first game via military - doesn't seem to be enough dishonor stuff in the Scorpion starter to go for a dishonor win. For the second game, he tweaked his deck, putting in more bullshit 'you don't win' cards like Headbutt, Duty of the Crab, Retribution, etc. He won by sniping my personalities off the battlefields with his berserker abilities before I could do much of anything. I thought it was annoying, especially because mid-combat bullshit was supposed to be my area of expertise. Combat felt like Blue Moon a bit, going back and forth until someone can't increase their power enough anymore. But the consequences of losing a battle are greater, since you have to spend time replacing your lost personalities.
I want to build a better Scorpion deck, probably focused around a dishonor win. I'm leaning towards Crane or Dragon when the game reboots, but for now this is the card pool I have. Is there a good centralized place for card reviews, like Netrunner has in netrunnerdb.com? It's too hard to find information/strategies, especially for older editions of the game.

Buying Emperor Edition Gempukku Display Starter - What would Compliment it?
I know the CCG is dead and I know that the LCG is in. Still, I fell in love with the old game years ago and have a small group of friends who have finally come around to giving this game a try. We're buying the Emperor Edition Gempukku display starter, so the four of us will have nine starter's to cycle through. However, we have expressed interest in trying some draft style shenanigans and allowing some upgrades within something of a 'cube' of cards.

My question is, are any of the Emperor edition expansions worth adding to the collection or will I just be getting duplicates? Will the starter display play thoroughly enough on its own? I have a great price on a box of Seeds of Decay as well. Many thanks!
