NBN NA Rush - H&P Update

djackman 982

Very few changes. Dropped to 19 ice and added a single copy of fast track - should reduce the chance you are agenda starved when you've got scoring windows. Might bump that to two copies in the future, but I think one has a pretty big impact on its own.

Dropped a couple copies of wraparound for TMI, as with the meta going even more siphon heavy, its pretty important that your starting hand has draco, tmi, sansan to deny it.

This is very similar to what I run (a few different ICE choices and Restructure instead of SfSS) and I am thinking of dropping both Closed Accounts for 2x Fast Track. It's just never as effective as I want it to be against Tag Me Siphons and otherwise the only way this deck tags is with Breaking News... which is a little combo-y.

I like the changes, I think TMI is significantly better than wrap around, I don't think you'll see as much atman now that H&P is out, so increasing costs for the ever present corroder (which is just a special order away) is a solid plan. Super solid.

It's not even the increased cost for Corroder that makes TMI attractive, it's the fact that it's such great Account Siphon protection (since the trace is a great place to dump credits if you don't have any assets to rez). With Planned Assault being the new hotness at only 2 influence, Siphon is something everybody is trying to shoehorn into their decks.

You're both right - Thats why TMI is such a good include, even though it tends to get poo-pooed on - card slots that fit multiple roles, such as tmi, are awesome.

Its good against katman(although I never really see it anymore), Serves as a credit dump similar to draco, and leaves you in a board state where you have a beast of a barrier rezzed and you probably just spoiled a siphon (although probably otherwise broke). It is good against corroder as well - I tend to not play low str barriers at all anymore, except maybe 1 or 2 to draw out the corroder install when the rest of my list makes corroder bad.
