    Rule hint for this card

    This card has an clarification:

    Using this personnel’s special skill to draw a card is a “just” action; it must be used immediately after the non-Youth Jem’Hadar enters play at his location, even if that Jem’Hadar enters play as a subaction of a group action (e.g., multiple reports under Red Alert!). See actions - group, actions - just, card draw.

    Taken form Glossary - Version 1.9.5.

    As the first Vorta ever to have SECURITY, Deyos is sure to immediately find his way into Dominion players' decks. While his double Treachery and Archaeology may be of limited use, it's all secondary to his mammoth special skill - each non-Youth Jem'Hadar that enters play at his location allows you to draw a card. That makes it worlds easier to get ships for your war effort, White for your Jem'Hadar, Founders for the infiltration part of your strategy, and much, much more.

    Combo:

    • Deyos + Jem'Hadar Birthing Chamberimage: A perfect combination of free drawing and free reporting. When the Young Jem'Hadarimage you report free at the Chamber "matures" at the end of your turn, you can draw an extra card for it. And it's easy to play that card since you don't ever have to use up your card play on universal Jem'Hadar. More than one Chamber means even more options!
