Reg Hoshi (CO winner)

January 2024 Pandemonium Circuit Opener

4-1 (wins vs. AgInfusion, A Teia, R+, NEH; loss to Outfit)

Winning the early game is huge in this meta - my goal with this build was to be able to set up quickly while still having sufficient long-term juice.

Notes on card choices

• Keiko over Maw; credits are better than what Maw gives you
• Boomerang is obv just great in general, but it's also big here as a way of perpetually triggering Twinning and Keiko if you get through your deck
• 2 NFL was a meta call that worked out: 3/5 of my opponents were tag-focused
• 1 Pinhole Threading 1 Turbine 1 Bones could be tweaked for meta calls, but I like high variance 1ofs with Moshing and The Price
• No Bankhar; it's a powerful card, but early it feels pretty meh once a second ice goes on the remote and the later game value is less exciting with Turbine in the deck
• I'm currently thinking that the 2 Maemi should instead be some combination of Labor Rights and Paladin #3 - Mystic can for sure be good, but pretty frequently you run out of events and end up trashing it
