Follower heavy, with some backup.  It's got plenty of defense, but if
your oponent's a turtle, you can pitch it with Gennai and the Mempo
(I wish Look Into the Void was Jade legal ;-)  Ring of Void is fairly
critical to get out, though I think I only played it once the whole
tournament.  The deck lost to Unicorn because he won by honor, I could've
easily taken him in a fight at the end.  It also lost a _very_ close game
to Scorpion Ninjas.

Storyline rammifications: The Monks welcome the Dragons and open The Acadamy
to teach philosophy and battle tactics to the Peasants.
