Whats wrong with that? Having a dark role in the storyline and getting
Tainted
peeps doesn't stop you from playing honorable decks and trying to redeem
those tainted peeps. It would just turn the tables on the corrupt players
and
the honorable players.

Yes, and after that recruitment drive they became the most powerful faction
in every format. IMO the tainty stronghold was Lions coolest stronghold,
even though it was kind of "Eh?....) for serious play, it was great for
playing
casual oni-stomp and Toju-honor-with-oni-support. Nothing is freakier than
playing a honor deck with Dark Moto Sensei and Oni no Okura. :)
