This video is awesome! Thanks a lot for all the interesting and inspiring input. I always hasitate to play with Harway, due to his signature weaknesse. But with the information you provided, I will give him a chance. Thanks for your tremendous effort to make such great videos.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video! I will be making similar videos for each of the Investigators in the starter deck products, time permitting.

From my understanding of Seeking Answers (2) wording it lets you discover 3 clues (1 from Investigate action itself and 2 from If you succeed text) because of absence of "Instead" word.

This was clarified in the FAQ to only be 2 total clues: Erratum: This card's ability should read "...If you succeed, instead of discovering a clue at your location, discover 2 total clues from among your location and connecting locations." - FAQ, v.1.9, June 2021

I don't have a Harvey deck I can share at the moment. I have had success with this arkhamdb.com/decklist/view/29060/harvey-sits-triumphantly-on-the-black-throne-1.0 playing solo against Before the Black Throne. It may work well against other scenarios that are not enemy intensive.

I was pretty disappointed by Harvey, and he's my least liked of the 5 pregen investigator decks. The really aggravating thing w/ Harvey for me is, if he's supposed to the Big Hand guy, his weakness ensures he's worse at it than Mandy and arguably just about any other Seeker who wants to take the various tech cards. In fact, generally speaking, Mandy is just better than Harvey more or less across the board no matter what style of deck you run him with. I'm fond of the character in the lore, and wish he was more viable.

completly agree with you! His weakness shuts him down so hard you have to plan a big section of your deck at surviving it or don't play toward his strenght which I fing quite sad! they should have switch the 2 weakness in his pack. Obsessive should have been his unique weakness and he would have been a far better big hand seeker!

I have no special insights into what MJ and her team were thinking when they designed Harvey, but I suspect that he is not intended to be the Big Hand investigator but rather an investigator in the spirit of Minh who feeds cards to other investigators rather than icons. The design of Harvey's signature weakness certainly seems to support the theory that he's supposed to spread the love around rather than keep all that draw for himself. If that's the case, his starter deck is a hodgepodge of cards that support other Seeker investigators far better than him. There are a few tomes for Daisy and a bunch of Big Hand tech for whichever investigator wants to experiment with that strategy. The only two cards that seem to support the idea of 'supportive' Harvey is Harvey himself and his signature asset, Vault of Knowledge. If Harvey is really a support investigator at heart, then he sits comfortably my blind spot as someone who plays almost exclusively true solo. Harvey's weakness makes it riskier for him to pursue a Big Hand strategy, but I think it's possible to mitigate that risk. I don't think the problem with Big Hand Harvey is Harvey, but the Big Hand strategy itself. The strategy as presented in the starter deck is lackluster at best. It takes far too long to ramp to 10+ cards, and the payoff for doing so (besides having a fist full of cards and the potential to cycle your deck) is mediocre. As much as I play up the potential of a card such as Forbidden Tome: Secrets Revealed, I have struggled to get it to work with any sort of consistency. Ultimately, I think you're better off dialing Harvey's hand up to 10 or 11 and treating his weakness like a souped up version of Abandoned and Alone.
