Bounty Nekker was the most popular and competitive Syndicate deck in January 2025, crowned by 2700+ score from Pajabol. While less popular, more rigid and matchup dependent, full scale Bounty with Witchfinder and Brute is also strong. It simply appears that bronze Bounty package with 5 power Witch Hunter Executioner is the best option in Syndicate at the start of 2025. I got +13 -1 score with the showcased list, starting from ~2390, ending at ~2475 fMMR.

Classical Bounty in general is reactive and prefers red coin. There usually you would try to establish some coin / leader value / Tamara Strenger carryover and pass. That being said, exceptions happen and initiative can be very important especially in engine matchups.

From blue coin against pointslam opponents getting out without losing on even cards is usually priority. Tunnel Drill is a typical opener, giving reach to remove 6 power threats and immediately starting to spend coins at decent ratio.

Deck runs double tutor. Vivaldi's Bank is essential for Conjurer's Candle. Even if you find everything, Vivaldi Bank can be simply a decent value card; e.g. topdecking 6 power Witch Hunter would be ~15 for 9 play. Royal Decree can be used to find Tamara Strenger before R3, but also gives the deck a bit more flexibility - depending on circumstances with Decree you can choose tall punish (Graden, Moreelse), bounty card (Witch Hunter, Kurt, Menge) or spender (Executioner, Octavia).
