Murder is on the Menu

habanero w/ lime, charred scallion, soy sauce and fresh herbs, extra hot


This pile of cards was brought to the Milwaukee online store champs held earlier this year. It did not do well, placing 13th of 14 players, both because I made several errors in construction and because I happen to be just the world's okayest Netrunner player.

The deck takes its name from my favorite sauce, Kill Dem Wid It, at my favorite Jamaican restaurant in the Minneapolis Saint Paul area: Pimento. It's fantastic food period, let alone specifically Jamaican. Definitely check it out if you're ever in the Cities.

Specifically this was a nod to me thinking I had the secret sauce for a winning deck, a kill package, and simply because Pimento's logo is primarily yellow and green like the deck. Listen, I might not be very good at Netrunner, but I am S-Tier when it comes to coming up with clever deck names. Too bad that doesn't translate to wins.

There are many, many mistakes. Too many to document here. If you're interested in hearing about them, @neuropantser and myself discuss exactly what went wrong in our new podcast, Slumscast. Check out that episode here:
