SpiderPig to the Rescue! (Horror Themed)

Backstory:

What if our beloved Spider-Ham from Earth 8311 was transported not into the "Spider-Verse" we all know and love, but instead into various horror movies via a villain like Mojo.

• The comedic dialogue between Spider-Ham and the Symbiote Suit arguing over the superiority of a hot dog over human flesh

• Giving Death the constant middle finger in "Final Destination" with Cartoon Physics and "I Don't Think So!"

• Going toe to toe with Jason from the "Friday the 13th Franchise" using Taunt, Petulant Pig or Bait and Switch to draw the villains attention then protecting his friends with Get Behind Me! or laughing since he is already tied up from Thwip Thwip!

• Fighting alongside Bruce Campbell in "Army of Darkness" using his trusty Huge Wooden Hammer and Organic Webbing to hold off the undead hordes.

Regardless the scenario you and the other players are confronted with, Spider-Ham is there preventing the worst from happening through his mitigation of Encounter Cards, usage of himself and allies as meat shields to defend, doing a respectable amount of damage when necessary, and removing an insane amount of threat with the build up of Ham It Up. He's the Swiss Army knife of receiving punishment, then cleaning house when called upon to do so.

With up to 25 Health and built in 5 Recovery when fully set up, as well as 6 different allies to absorb blows, this Spider-Ham deck is built to take on the entire Villain phase, soaking up all the toon counters that can be used to one shot the main scheme from 20 to zero in an instant. On top of that, thwarting for 15+ and doing 15+ damage on the same turn becomes normal towards the end, with status effects and treachery mitigation coinciding.

My dream is to pair this with the "Look At Me, I'm Tom Cruise!" Deadpool deck by MegiDolaDyne. For now though, I'll stick to only using it in groups of 3-4 for a fun challenge and change of pace that adds a new layer to how a Protection deck might work.
