A thorough understanding of the game is key, bonuses only activate if two different cards from from the same clan are in your hand at the same time. you have some nice cards actually, but for a beginner i would suggest rescue, take your larry and steve, and add 6 more rescue cards of your choosing and you'll have a great deck, cheap effective and great way to start off. i would suggest lea elvira, anita, glosh, suzie (use kerry if you can afford it), sledge, even the low stars are strong because each card has +12 attack from bonus. Later you can upgrade larry to krash (its a direct upgrade because 1dmg+2life is the same life gap as 3 dmg, but krash is always at 7 power whereas larry is weakened by soa.
