Zen was a "format" we used to play in the LGS basement, mid-90s.

It's simple. You got a Revised starter deck, shuffled and played. For ante.

If you went below 40 cards, you could either break up the deck, and start over, or add one Revised booster.

I had several, but this one was the one I kept all these years. I got incredibly lucky, as it has a Contract From Below. Likely the last legit use of that card I've ever seen.

There's no deck building skill here, there can't be. But it is a bit of history.
